Now onto things that matter:

BOY BYE with this mess...

That is NOT trap

Which she won over Britney despite the latter being more popular.
Britney doesn't have a voice, and once lost her dancing skill it was all over.
she has WAY less albums than Britney does as well. Her discography is far more varied than Britney's is even though her albums are clogged with filler.

No one cares about Xtina and her popularity has NEVER matched Britney's. End of.

Justin's indie movie sweeped last year and Gosling's was panned beyond belief. What an amazing year.

The "Vocal" has nothing to do with voice, it's about the song being a majority vocal performance

Trying to make Uncle happen but the public said nope. They said dance monkey, dance. Oh shucks, oh well.

If we use USA stats only, most of the time Taylor isn't even in a conversation with the others. Even adele and P!nk come up more.

Katy is maturing but her pace is so slow, OOTB is somewhat mature but songs like Spiritual, By The Grace Of God are more mature than anything on her previous efforts.

GLOBAL

She gives me Janet and Mariah teas. I need her to have another huge era again and to actually dominate. She has it in her but isn't out for blood for a number of reasons. She thrives on competition (the only reason GGGB slayed so much) which makes me hopeful for R8. She knows what time it is

Spiritual is so good and, alas, bonus track. Quite funny.

That's the point. It'll be gradual so that she doesn't alienate anyone

Poor Yoncé!

Oh Nicole.

And btw BJ still outsold Lotus and Cher's album WW.

Ryan's directorial debut is rumoured to play in the Un Certain Regard selection this year and that's kinda huge for a first time director.
