    I don't particularly like any but britney by far! She has so many delusional fans who think she is iconic and and an amazing artist when really she mimed to a few hits ten years ago and is only famous for being a bad mother and basically being dead behind the eyes. I don't like gaga (anymore) or bieber but at least they have some sort of talent.

    I voted for Justin Bieber. What is so special about him? His music is nothing special, it's just fairly average teen pop fodder. I think he's trying too hard to be like Justin Timberlake but it doesn't seem to work very well. And don't get me started on the Beliebers (in other words his fans) :eek:

    I voted for the aggressive & obnoxious Chris Brown though surprised the talentless blow-up doll that is Nicki Minaj wasn't listed.

    Is Nicki Minaj "rated" though, I mean I know she's had some hits but is she widely regarded as a great artist? I like her songs but I don't know if people will still be in to her in ten years.
    But stranger things have happened.

    I'm inclined to go with Britney because a lot of what she has done was not really due to her as an "artist" and more to do with her being in the right place at the right time. Others will argue that's not the case and credit her with all sorts but in my opinion,yeah she's overrated.
    Chris Brown as well, I never really got the hype around him before the Rhianna incident, and I certainly don't get it now.

    It's a hard one between Beiber, Gaga and Lil Wayne.

    I went Bieber

    I voted for Justin Bieber (although I do like a few of his songs). I would have voted for Rita Ora if she'd been on there. Or Jessie J.

    Definitely Justin Bieber. I have heard him sing live and he is awful! I am glad no one has voted for Kylie Minogue (don't vote now :mad:) and TBH I don't even know why she is on the list. She is a legend.

    I voted Bieber. I spent a fortnight in the USA a couple of years ago and that pushed me right over the edge, when he was literally on TV ALL THE TIME. What an obnoxious little upstart he is!

    So glad nobody has voted Minogue (yet), since she's possibly the most UNDERrated star on the list. 25 years in the business and still people write her off as untalented pap. :(

    I'd say Lady Gaga.

    Justin Bieber and Lil Wayne I wouldn't consider overrated, since while they both have a lot of fans, they're also widely hated.

    Justin Bieber, his voice is painful to listen to, he sounds like he's straining with every note, and his music is awful and all about the same stuff.

    Does everyone actually know what 'overrated' means? how can Beiber be in the lead when nobody takes him seriously apart from little girls?

    Bieber.
    I can appreciate it when girls lust for these male pop acts, but I usually expect the music to have something to it aswell. But his music is just awful to me, I literally can't bear it.

    If Robbie Williams or Olly Murs had been on there I'd definitely have voted for them!

    Gaga thinks she's some kind of Icon I think. She certainly thinks she's up there with Bowie, Madonna, M. Jackson, Elvis. Desperate, clingy person that needs to be loved and adored.
