Alex comes across slightly patronizing in my opinion. --- This can be misinterpreted as 'arrogant' though, which I don't think she is.

Some of her fans demonstrate obsessiveness on DS forums. Just count any number of threads about her. Or how Simon Cowell is like some evil mastermind stroking his cat as he sets out to destroy Alex Burke's career. Or how her records aren't selling because she's too dark skinned and presenting pics of Beyonce to compare skin colour.

The fact is this: she released a record which not many have bought because in my opinion it's not very good and many of her fans just won't accept this.

Thats not fair to say, music is subjective, everyone has different preferences.

But not all her fans start threads on her do they?

There are a couple of 'Nerr nerr! She's flopped!' threads. You get this with the forums - same thing happened to Madonna when her album didn't do well. But there are (or were, I think some have been merged) lots of threads about Alex all saying the same thing.
