The Top Ten

Worst of all is that she's not that good-looking ( not ugly, but come on, best smile, most beautiful female singer of all times, best eyes, best this, best that... ). She sings ok but if you have to believe all the TTT list where she's on top, it's like everything before her went obsolete. She made 1 movie and she's even on a most beautiful actresses of all time list ( what the hell? ). I agree with Toptenner zxm, it made her very overrated ( sorry zxm, you said a little bit but I know what you mean ).

Odd, I would have thought that by age 14 that math was a required subject in school.
Number one on 95% of lists is pretty much impossible, considering she is not on any lists about rock, hip-hop, rap, soul, R&B, skiffle, metal, nu-metal, death metal, scream, or any of the ****Cores, not to mention instrumental music, music recorded before 2010, anything by non-Americans, and of course nothing by any band or anything by males.
Those categories take up about 99-percent of all music lists, so she cannot even be on them at all.
On the very few lists she does appear on, she is highly rated on less than half, and when highly rated, the artist she is most likely to be ahead of is Ariana Grande.

Of all the music artists mentioned on the top ten lists Jackie is the one who deserves to be number one on as many good lists as possible.
Amazing voice
Stunning good looks
Great stage presence
Beautiful personality

The haters don't like her getting so many votes in the top tens because most of them don't know much about her. If they go to one of her concerts many of them would change their minds.
