Billboard's The 25 Greatest Pop Stars of the 21st Century

[phantasmas 9,245]

some of those honorable mentions also dont seem to be "pop" at all  so i just know the actual top 25 is gonna be messy 

and them leaving Xtina out seems like a hate crime 

but then leaving JLo out feels like justice, lmao

1. Michael Jackson 

2. Madonna 

3. Probably the girl with the thousand album versions

Billboard spreading bullshit as usual

I feel like Gaga is always overlooked & underappreciated when it comes to lists like this. I wouldn't be surprised if she doesn't make top 10 even if she deserves top 3.

honestly, her impact hasn't gone beyond the internet

i'm a big lana fan but to say she's had big cultural impact is... kinda insane? to me, big cultural impact is somebody like madonna or Gaga who actually changed the real world and the music landscape

however her presence in the online world is very real and she for sure introduced a certain aesthetic in expressive places like tumblr and instagram

oooh well hopefully in the future we get a list of top artists who influenced the internet!

i think it'd be pretty cool to dissect how internet fame translates into the real world in this day and age where internet access has reached more people than ever before

unless Billie and others are saying out loud that they began their music careers because of Lana then i just dont see that being true

 

Billie did say that for real haha. Thats why I remember it. Dont recall if it was at coachella or an interview. I do remember Taylor also saying something similar about her pushing the alternative boundaries on her woman of the year speech

Top 5 will be: Taylor Swift, Drake, Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, and perhaps The Weeknd. 

I can see them putting Beyoncé in place of Gaga... hopefully replacing someone else. 

from their honorable I think Billie, Cardi, Post, and Lana could have been included. 

lemme make up a list:

1. Lady Gaga (def won't be #1 if it's about Billboard success but if it's IMPACT, perhaps lmaoo)
2. Taylor Swift
3. Drake
4. Justin Bieber
5. Beyoncé
6. The Weeknd
ADD: Adele
7. Britney Spears
8. Nicki Minaj
9. Rihanna
10. Ed Sheeran
11. Miley Cyrus
12. Lil Uzi Vert
13. Harry Styles
14. Ariana Grande
15. Bruno Mars
16. Skrillex
17. Lil Nas X
18. Calvin Harris
19. Pharrell Williams
20. DJ Khaled
21. BTS
22. Shakira
23. Avril Lavigne
25. ...
