Don't get me wrong. I'm totally pressed. It bothers me that someone as unremarkable as Katy could accurately be described as 2013/14's biggest female pop force (I want Rihanna to leave her in the dust but I feel like we've totally jinxed her with ATRL's constant chatter and overconfidence lol). So take my rant with a grain of salt. My point isn't that Katy has no redeeming qualities; she's essentially likable, kinda funny, never actually the lowest common denominator in pop, and her campy pure pop persona is reminiscent of some of the best divas we've had. But half of her huge hits are pretty lame. Her consistent success doesn't feel particularly representative of the 2010s--she doesn't move the pop female forward in a meaningful way. And I think a lot of her status is the result of dumb luck. Which is cool, and I wouldn't be so annoyed by it if she had more competition right now. You get me?
