One hit wonder? Yes. 15 minutes of fame? Yes. Her actually continuing a career as a singer? NO.
...so? Since when does how much money you make somehow render what you do from inept to competent? Should we talk about how much money Scientology has made as an argument for the validity of what they promote?
Scientology is no more insane than any other religion in the world. Believing in an alien god that lives inside a volcano or something is every bit as insane as believing in an invisible god who lives in an invisible magic kingdom who somehow gives birth to himself on earth.

It doesn't. All I'm saying is good for her for making a quick buck off of this atrocity.

I am generally against Lady GaGa's music because its not really my thing. But I wouldn't deny that she has some actual talent. If you hear her live, assuming that is her voice it is actually quite good. Kesha and this chick are trash however.
