BYU Grounds Intervention Needed

She's famous for her songwriting and her marketing. Her voice is good, it is

^THIS^ she does not have the pipes of a typical top pop star - Beyonce, Gaga etc

"Typical" pop stars don't have that great of pipes. The two you mentioned...

Please tell me you're joking about beyonce and lady gaga not being good singers

She's definitely not a bad singer that some are claiming. She can sing well

The bar for female vocalists is much, much higher than it is for male ones,

Middling looks? Not to get into a hot or not competition ...

My point is, she didn't get where she is primarily based on her looks. Like her

No problem with her voice but I don't like her music. Most pop music sucks!

Not sure what being conservative has to do with it. 99.9% of the artists

Every single person I know IRL who doesn't like Taylor Swift is also a conservative. She's been in the news politically

You must not associate with a very diverse set of people who aren’t conservative

bluesloth

All the lesbians I know hate Taylor Swift.

Most of the people I know who love her are conservative white women. I know lots of minorities who say she sucks.

Not surprising when 90% of the people you know IRL are conservative

Shunning people over political disagreement is more of a lefty thing

Maybe we just aren’t enamored by her and the media hype machine that helps her

What demographics qualify you to say she is a good singer?

Well of course I'm not politically and demographically biased like most of cougarboard.

She’s an ok singer. No special talent. Terrible vocal range.

She has a good, clear voice, and is worthy of being a professional. I just don't really like her tunes.

She’s not though. Her songs are catchy and that’s about it
