If you could have the same career path (including the vocal an performing skills of the chosen artist) etc...OBJECTIVELY SEEN (don't choose your fave just because it is your fave), whose career and talent would you want to have? And Why?

Consider factors such as:

1. Vocal talent
2. performing skills
3. artistic integrity
4. relevance over the years
5. current status (net worth, income etc.)
6. sales
7. iconic moments
8. awards
9. critical acclaim
10. media status
11. longevity
12. power etc.

selena gomez

So you would chose to have a Selena career over having a Beyoncé, Rihanna or Britney type of career?

care to elaborate?

Lady Gaga and not because she is my fav.But because:
1.GREAT
2.GREAT
3.She declined with ARTPOP (which still did relatively well) and now she is going to slay us with LG5
4.275m net worth
5.150m+ records in just 8 years
6.Meat Dress,VMA performances,Bad Romance music video,Pokerface Music Video etc.
7.MANY awards for 8 years.(including 6 grammys)
8.All of her albums got over 60 on metacritic (something that Katy,Christina,Mariah etc. can only pray for)
9.Icon
10.We'll see.But she is doing well so far
11.Huge fanbase,huge impact
12.She is also a great songwriter
She literally has the WHOLE package.She might not have the dance moves of Beyonce,the success of Adele or the beauty of Britney.But overall she is the strongest one.

Mariah

Madonna, but since she's not on the list I'd have to pick either Adele, Miley or Beyoncé.
The three seem very well balanced, but i'd choose Miley because she doesn't seem to have the pressure Bey and Adele have, and she seems to have more fun.

Beyoncé because of the artistry, and Adele because of her sentimentalism/relatableness.
I picked Bey tho because overall she's more of an artist than the other two.

Adele, when I perform I don't have to dance or anything (maybe a little shuffle and chair-sitting here and there)

Sounds like the life.

Bey probably, even tho I'm not a fan of her I gottta admit she's had one hell of a career and is still going strong

Taylor.

Taylor. Great songwriting, good vocals, captivating performer, touring monster, album seller, hit maker, all around global icon.

beyonce... she wins pretty much every one of those categories

Beyonce since shes earned the most.

Gaga. She's the ultimate all-around pop artist.

Beyonce, she's powerful & respected and puts on great shows.

Mariah

For her 18 number ones 16 weeks number one longevity decade records

i agree, she's really talented. but state reasons why you would prefer her career over the others listed above

P!nk, Beyonce and Adele are the only logical answers imo. P!nk and Beyonce because of how many years they have been in this industry and can still achieve success, acclaim, etc by their own.

And Adele because of how massive her eras are even if she's a "recent" artist.

Rihanna, Taylor, Katy and Gaga just need Beyonce's years in music.

Adele,P!nk are BORINGGGG

Gaga, because when you write your own music you don't need others that much. Plus her voice is amazing. Because of these two things there's always something she can return to.
She could still write for others if she would decide that a break from the spotlight is what she wants...and make money this way...
