Anyone voting for Avril were not old enough to remember 2002-2007 Between 2002-2012, she's the female artist with the most albums sold WW besides Norah Jones..... so I dunno what y'all are smoking.
Here's a video to educate the young-ins on Avril's impact in her first 5 years of career before her peak ended..... kinda the same career projectory as Gaga actually.
i dont know why alot of you are saying avril, im not a stan of hers and i dont know how old a lot of you are but in her prime she had a lot of impact specially on the "emo" kids/scene. i remember in middle school she was all the rave about.
She has definitely had more impact than Pink and Katy Perry although my vote on this goes to Pink since she has been around for SO long yet she hasn't had much of an impact
Only ATRL gays would vote Katy. The correct answer is someone like Shakira or Jennifer Lopez.
Shakira made a revolution with her belly dancing, everybody wanted to take belly dancing lessons when she first came out, and JLO was the paparazzi first darling with her famous relationship with Ben Affleck, not to forget her hugely successful films like The Wedding Planner, Maid in Manhattan, Shall We Dance? & of course Monster-in-Law.
Jennifer Lopez. she doesn't really even have that much of an image, and her music has been really boring and generic from the very beginning of her career until now. she hasn't changed music at all except for MAYBE helping latin pop become more popular, but her music doesn't even sound like latin music so I really don't think that counts. i think every other pop star here has influenced music at least a little bit, even if just for a couple years.
Why is Avril with so many votes? I don't know in the US but in my country everyone wanted to look like her back in 2002. The clothes, the hair, the "emo" thing, ect...
