Carly Rae Jepsen. One hit wonder?
Do you think "call me maybe" will be her only hit or not?

Yeah. Canada says it all. That's her only real hit and she was on Canadian Idol.

Watch her Billboard Music Awards performance. And people have the nerve to shade XF singers...

She may be able to use the exposure to forge a career as a songwriter I guess. |

She sounds really young too, especially live. She could easily have another hit, she just needs a commercial song people will like as much as Call Me Maybe. Easier said than done, but there are very good songwriters around.

I think she'll be a one hit wonder yeah, I can't see her becoming a massive artist over here in the UK. I'm surprised she's 26 too! I didn't think she 15/16, I thought more around 20/21!

Hmmmm....
She might end up being a one-hit wonder, but I kinda like her, so I hope she has a few more hits. |

I don't think she'll be a one hit wonder, she has Justin Bieber on her side so he'll keep promoting her.

As for the actual question. It's hard to tell. I'm sure most people thought the same about Katy Perry and I Kissed A Girl. Though I agree she has no star quality and think the song is abit of a one off. Again, who knows what'll happen. |

Yeah the whole age thing freaked me out too.
I pegged CMM as a mild hit weeks before it came out, and how wrong was I?! I don't know. If she has another CMM type song on her album/EP you never know. People warmed to her because the end of the video was funny and she seemed youthful and fun. A career could be hers to make. The door is open,... it's how she follows up. She does have 1 hit wonder written all over her in my eyes, though!

I don't think so actually. I don't think it's even possible to be a complete one-hit wonder nowadays. One big hit gives you the buzz and momentum to have at least two more minor ones. Maybe she'll even top her 1st song if she doesn't try to re-create it
![]() P.S : Isn't it a bit strange that 'Call Me Maybe' is shaping up to be a worldwide smash and I've never even heard it in full. Is it good? Should I search it on YouTube? |

The video is quite funny, and the song is...well, very catchy. It's something you'll sing along to even if you hate it.

Yeah his team are her management... but I think he brought her to their attention. There's only so much Bieber's can do for her career imo. I'm not convinced Bieber tweets alone can make her a star.

The difference between her and Katy Perry = Katy had "Hot n Cold" released like two months after "I kissed a girl" She immediately carved an identity.
