The Top Ten
1 Charice Pempengco Jake Zyrus (born Charmaine Clarice Relucio Pempengco, formerly known by the mononym Charice), is a Filipino singer who rose to popularity through YouTube. He is a transgender man.

This young lady favorably compares to "MTV's Top 10 Female Vocalists of the Past Century" (Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Christina Aguilera, Beyonce Knowles, Celine Dion, Mary J. Blige, Jessica Simpson, etc. etc.).
One word is needed to sum her talent: entrancing.

The most talented girl in the world indeed as per Oprah Winfrey. Charice has guested in the show for almost 10x already besting all other artists guested. Isn't she amazing?

By far, the most talented girl under 30. If you want somebody to sing live and stunningly beautiful, Charice is the one that I would recommend.

man I'm 50 yrs old, but she's d only singer that consistently gave me chills, made me cry, comment and vote like this (ever! ), you-tubed all her vids, replayed her songs zillions of times, stayed up to 4AM, skipped work like today, made my wife angry/jealous, bought her CD/Hitman DVD, told all my friends and family, etc. Yeah, I don't have a life right now...

Selena Gomez is a goddess!

7 Janis Joplin Janis Joplin (1943-1970) was an American singer who rose to fame as the main singer of acid band Big Brother and the Holding Company. She was known for her eccentric hippie style and psychedelic rock music.

Janis was great but her appearance here is obvious vote fraud. Nobody can start out with the equivalent of 500 votes If she was still around, she would be 72 years old.

Under 30 not even, maybe under 80 if she was alive. I guess everybody was under 30 at some point, so every female singer in the world can be on this list.

Easily the best female singer in the world at the moment and right up there with some of the best ever, male and female! Has there ever been such emotion expressed in the texture and intonation of a consistently astonishingly powerful voice? - perhaps only Pavarotti matches her here. Wow!

Definitely a brilliant and passionate young artist to watch. She is young with so much talent, energy, and creativity. I look forward for the years to come when she really blossoms and takes on the industry full throttle.

Looking at the top 10 here there are some great singers, but comparing them to Adele, they are just mediocre. Adele is currently no doubt the best singer in the world and one of the best singers ever (both female and male)

Her vocals are just out of the world! She has amazing powerful and bold voice...she is of course the greatest in the new singers and will be one of the best of all times
