talent is subjective. she is overrated imo but she's a good song writer.

[MrPeanut]

She is so bland it offends me. And it's true, she can't sing live at all. Anybody remember the Grammys? Poor Stevie Nicks.

I can understand that a lot of people don't like Taylor Swift for pathetic reasons, but to say that she isn't at all talented is absolutely ridiculous. (and completely untrue, whether you like her or not)

That loser from the Black Crowes doesn't know anything about talent and has been clearly been living under a rock for too long.

I agree with him.
She has limited vocal ability, sings about the same thing over and over (even though she's 20, not 14) and the production is very same-y.
It seems like ever since the Kanye incident NO ONE is allowed to say anything negative about her.
But I guess she has cute ringlets and can sort of play the guitar so it's all ok But she sells records so obviously for now it's working for her...

+1. She's overrated. And obviously successful because many teenage girls can relate to her songs.

Unless you're using this sentence in general and not specifically to shade Taylor then you pretty much fail. No matter what everyone has to say about Taylor, they'll always lose cause they like singers with the same flaws or even worse.

I don't get the damn hate to Taylor, I mean she's just writing and singing her own songs just the way she likes it and she's pretty much living her dream, whoever buys or likes it has nothing to do with her persona. If you're just bothered cause she outsold your favorite singer then you're just lame.

Thank you!

THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! U no longer have to have talent to be famous but I think it's nice to have a real singer/performer/entertainer that can actually do their profession.

[Sin With A Grin]

I agree with every word he said. Taylor is NOT talented. Her songs are poorly written and they all talk about the exact same thing. They don't emote and neither does her voice. (plus she sucks live)
however, if I say this, who the **** cares? I'm a random person on a message board. But he's a famous singer talking to a magazine. I don't think he should have been so...well explicit with his feelings. this could bite him in the ass later. Taylor has a big fanbase.

And what is Rihanna's "talent?" And Katy's not really that talented either.

Girl BYE:

Rihanna is a vocalist, songwriter, and a sex goddess. No one else works the camera lenses like Rihanna, while also singing LIVE

I might get jumped for this, but Rihanna sounds like a dying crow, has 5 other people writing her songs (didn't she start writing after the Chris Brown incident?), and being a "sex goddess" is NOT a talent. Boop, be gone.

I like "Mine" now, although It's no where near as epic as "You Belong With Me".

What is with all this **** about her sucking live?
Am I missing something?!

I saw her live in concert in July and she sounded amazing to me.

Taylor is a very talented young lady

I don't think Taylor Swift is particularly talented or interesting, but hey, she's doing her thing and selling millions.

If someone thinks she's not talented, why try to bring her down with words? It's better if they put their money where their mouth is and bring her down with talent and sales....
