I just asked my mom (who doesn't follow the enterteinment world at all) and she's says it's Adele. She hesitated tho

edit just to add, she probably doesn't even know Taylors name, I know that if I tell her she'll be like WHO?

[teaaet]

my mom would 100% say cher

[soyunatetera]

Is Cher still active? I mean releasing music

[teaaet]

Cher is immortal and probably has a single coming out next week. Idk

I was thinking the other day how Swift is currently one of the world's biggest stars but it feels like she's still missing something... Like I know she's huge but I feel like she doesn't have any significant pop culture influence/stamp. Like her biggest hit is "Shake it Off." It probably relates to her not having that "respect" her contemporaries do a la Adele, Gaga, Beyonce, etc.

She might not have big fashion moments like Gaga like moments but she's v significant when it comes to her songwriting/writing style and u can see it in pretty much all the new generation musicians lol (e.g. Olivia)

All new gen musicians?? I wouldn't go that far. She has alot of fans in the new generation is musicians but minus a couple of artists, noone is really inspired by her. Heck half her stuff is just Disney pop girl stuff but just with added boyfriend drama.

Olivia, Pheobe Bridgers, Halsey, conan gray, Maisie Peters, Griff, Gracie Abrahams etc etc

I should not be surprised he thinks she was five at the Grammys. My mom unironically refers to 50 year olds as young people.

i think of my students as kids too and they're like 5 years younger

[spacemonkey_699]

I'm in my mid 30s and I'm out here calling people in their mid 20s the kids lol

[buries]

Nah, it's Beyonce. IDGAF.

Beyoncé is on a different level. Taylor releases 10,000 versions of her songs to sell, she still cares about this shit at this point in her career. Beyoncé is above that shit, she legit released an album and said no to all the plebs asking for visuals.

Taylor can have the Grammys and numbers but time is the ultimate truth teller, Beyoncé reigns supreme.

[screamingintune]

Bey gave up being a celebrity and became more of an artist, tbh

Unfortunately yes. Undeserving, also yes.

It helps to be generic
