She's incredibly successful, yes, but at this stage of the game i wouldn't call her an icon yet.

It all really depends on what you call an icon, though.
I guess it's way too early to call any of the current pop girls icons, really (bar Britney and Beyoncé imo)

I mean seriously is there any doubt?
The receipts say it all...she is definitely a defining figure in pop music.
Definition: a person or thing regarded as a representative symbol of something.


"this iron-jawed icon of American manhood"


synonyms: idol, paragon, hero, heroine;


celebrity, superstar, star;

favorite, darling

"he became a teen icon"
Y'all will deal!

THE NEW QUEEN OF POP

No one from this generation of pop girls is an icon. They all have a few more years to go.

I think an icon transcends music and branches into political matters, fashion, philanthropy etc.

I mean... I can't even find Katy Perry in your cluster**** of a sig.
