This is actually really rude and patronizing? Kylie has consistently been involved with a lot of causes. She has a voice and uses it exceptionally well.

Ofc she uses her voice and does good. But it in fact is actually never really politically controversial. By that she’s never really alienating parts of her broad demographic, in a way that’s comparable only to Dolly maybe.

To me it seems like they were pretty focussed on her public persona. Its very concerning that they would praise someone for not using their platform, which she most certainly does. 

Well, they used the word “escapism” so it’s certainly about her artistic persona and her music. Especially since she uses this word herself to describe her music and her aesthetic.

Because she's simply THE queen of pop and the other ladies can't compare

Also her voice is great, she has a great pitch, clean highs. And yes, she is full of surprises like X and Impossible Princess.

She does, just not in the US.

I'm Dutch and over here she has had 15 top 20 hits. And I'm pretty sure it's similar in the rest of Europe.
