Yes, clock that SNL reject!
Why does it seem like Pop stars today just don't have the longevity that they used to?
I mean, all of the people in the game now that we would consider the greats are winding down. Britney's done. Justin's done. Leona never started. Gaga's not done, but she's in the winds. Christina's not done, but she's obviously settled into a smaller profile now that she's a mother (and engaged again). Beyonce's still in decent form, but even she's not ATTACKING the game like she used to, and outside of her Mrs.Illuminati Show this is looking to be her most low-key era ever.
I mean, where's the tenacity? Madonna, Prince, MJ, these legends were only JUST GETTING STARTED at this point in their careers. Just for comparison, Christina is 33, Britney is 32, and Bey is 31. At that point in her career, Madonna hadn't even released EROTICA yet. Madge still had 8 albums and some of her most iconic career moments ahead of her. She showed no signs of slowing down, even as she got married and started a family. Heck, she GREW her profile and started doing more movies around this time in addition to her music.
But it seems like all of our girls are petering out.
It's starting to seem like the next King and Queen of Pop isn't going to be the most "talented" or "deserving" of the bunch. It's going to be the acts who can stay hungry for it the longest.

My monster card is on hold till further notice, that performance was a mess
Like seriously a piano verse when the highlight of the song is its instrumental oh and do rub the wound of removing the hee-hees by still placing them in the last verse every time you perform the song
I did not wait weeks for this, I feel molested
It might just be a sign of the times. Everything comes out instantly now, and fans immediately eat it up and demand more in the first hour.People just expect new stuff to come out in the blink of an eye (in this very thread, even) when back in my day (can't believe I'm using that, my agE) new albums/songs used to seem like big events. You had MTV and VH1 actually catering to music fans to help get the word out and keep hype up, since the internet wasn't readily available and mainstream until around the time Britney blew up.
Nowadays artists are becoming more and more disposable (for lack of a better term) due to the amount of information and exposure even the smallest name gets. Oh, Gaga is flopping? Let me go listen to this indie girl instead. Oh, Indie Girl hasn't made a new album yet? But her last one was only 2 months ago! Let me hop on Spotify/iTunes/Twitter/Instagram/Youtube and find something else to listen to. Clearly artists can still keep themselves relevant, but with the amount of demand for product, it becomes harder and harder to satisfy the urges of the fans and not look like you're being lazy. And this isn't even getting into how the artists have eyes all over them 24/7. Why are you taking selfies when you should be making my new album you FUCKING BITCH NJFHBKSHBKGGJK
Warmusic has changed. Whether or not that's good or bad...it's up to you to decide.

Truly one of the most abhorrent, disingenuous people on the planet. Whenever she makes a hyperbolic claim and can't back it up with any receipts, she back tracks and says the opposite. This isn't confined to her track record about sales either.
She is known to be a two faced, back stabbing piece of Scheiße.
Let's take a look at her lying on tape about the Aguilera comparisons during her debut.

“from the very beginning of when my career started there was all this controversy about the two of us and I always felt that it was very unfair to her.”
Looks like a fine interview, right? Well....

"“Christina Aguilera…there’s an obvious resemblance between the looks. Whether or not she was inspired by my work, doesn’t matter to me. It’s like, if she was, that’s great.”
Back when she was at her peak, she doesn't feel like it's "unfair" that Aguilera was being compared to her. Of course, she was only fueling the controversy by replying to it with such an air of confidence.
But, look to who she turned to save Do What U Want!
Gaga is nothing but a sub-human, toucan nosed, LGBT exploiting hack that uses people for her own convenience. They are nothing but fodder to further her own "agenda" as the ~ a r t i s t e ~ of our generation. Truly, her lack of success at this point in her career is karma coming back to bite her in the ass. I wonder whether she'll ever rebound considering that she recently fired the manager that was behind her most successful eras. Her yes men and ego have got to her. Get it together.
That's right. She better hide behind those blinds.Lady Gaga is gross and her music is shit.
