Peter Gene Hernandez, professionally known by his stage name Bruno Mars, is an American singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, record producer, and choreographer... read more I saw the list and expected Bruno Mars to be at the top, but then I saw him here, at number 8. Besides being shocking, this is complete trash.
Bruno Mars deserves a top 5 position for sure, if not the first.
Continuously making songs that hit the top charts is not a piece of cake, but Mars makes it seem that way.
The best pop artist of this century, definitely, no doubt.
One of the few singers who sound better live than in the studio, and doesn't need to cover up with flashy lights and auto-tune.
His songs always have soul and energy.

Pop Queen. Icon. Advocate. Legend. She is one of the best singers of her age, covering a large variety of genres that can captivate any listener regardless of gender, age, race, or sexual orientation. Her talent and abilities can rival those of her generation and sell out as much as any hit artist in the spotlight.
She revolutionized pop music, brought art and life into an industry that was much needed, and with her own unique personality and persona, can outshine any other in entertainment. She also is a grand advocate of love and equality, which she dedicates her music to, encouraging people to get out of their shell and interact with other genres. One of many in the industry, she stands out from everybody in the music industry.

I admire him, but I can understand why he's so low on the list.
He's an average singer with good range. Some of his music is good too.
This must be a pretty old website because Eddie is amazing!
Adele Laurie Blue Adkins (born 5 May 1988) is an English singer and songwriter. Graduating from the BRIT School for Performing Arts and Technology in 2006, Adele was given a recording contract by XL Recordings after a friend posted her demo on Myspace the same year. She is best known with her international... read more Adele is more than an icon. She embodies everything we should be teaching our kids. She is humble and friendly, yet isn't afraid to speak her mind.
Of course, there's also her stunningly amazing voice, which isn't auto-tuned at all. That's why her live shows are a true gift.
She's great. She's a breath of fresh air for the industry. She writes her own music, and it's not contrived.
Adele has managed to sell loads of records, which makes her a great example for younger artists. Her voice is serene. It can lift you up anytime. Love you, Adele.

With a net worth of $600 million, she is the richest female musician in the world.
Rihanna is also the second best-selling female artist of all time, after Madonna. She holds the title for most #1 hits as a female pop singer, after Mariah Carey (14 #1s)! It seems like every single song she releases becomes a hit.
She's great. Her vocals are amazing even during her live performances. She should be above Adele.
Eminem is a rapper! Why is he above all the pop stars? I mean, it's true that the rap god is the best rapper, but placing him above Rihanna and others is unfair.
Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She was born on December 13, 1989, in Reading, Pennsylvania. Swift is best known for writing personal songs and has won 13 Grammy Awards... read more Taylor is not just a great singer. She is one of the best singers of our century. She's undoubtedly the queen of pop music.
It's not just her pop music success. She's also excelled in country music. Her voice allows her to sing a vast range of styles.
Take her dreamy country song Love Story, then consider Safe and Sound, and then move to Shake It Off and finally to Look What You Made Me Do. She has sung them all perfectly, and the last two have also topped the Billboard Hot 100. She certainly deserves to be at the top of this list. Come on, guys, vote for Taylor Swift!

Whether you liked her music or not, one thing's for sure: she was one of the most talked-about celebrities. It's a tragedy that she died so young.
If only she could fight her addictions. Sadly, it wasn't meant to be. There was too much going on, and she just couldn't cope. R.I.P., Amy.
She's the best singer ever in this century. With her music that is relatable and so unique, nobody else can replace her.
She will live on for centuries to come and inspire so many people.

He is my favorite person, and I really enjoy all of his songs. I really want to meet him in person.
Cher Lloyd is an English singer, songwriter, rapper, and model. She rose to fame in 2010 when she finished fourth in the seventh series of The X Factor. Not the best, but one of my favorites. I just love her style.

Avril Ramona Lavigne is a Canadian–French singer-songwriter and actress. By the age of 15, she had appeared on stage with Shania Twain; by 16, she had signed a two-album recording contract with Arista Records worth more than $2 million. What? That much less for someone like her? You have to listen to her songs. Her voice is so hard to achieve. Such a talented person deserves a top 5 spot. How can Ke$ha be before her? Autotune can never reach her amazing voice! Avril Lavigne is extremely talented!
Love Avril. She's always in perfect pitch when singing live.
She might be shy, but that doesn't stop her from putting her real self out there.
I really like the song I Will Be. It's the most beautiful song ever!
Enrique Miguel Iglesias Preysler, known professionally as Enrique Iglesias, is a Spanish singer, songwriter, record producer and actor. What the hell is Enrique doing in position 14? People, he should be 1. Have you all heard his new song Heart Attack? It rocks.
He has started to sing better nowadays, but he used to sing well before too. Please vote.
This list is wrong. Enrique must be at the top of the list. His voice is amazing.
Enrique should be after Michael Jackson. That idiot Justin Bieber should be at the bottom of the list.
He really sings from the heart. He knows what music is.
He is the best. In short, he is just brilliant and awesome.
Christina María Aguilera is an American singer, songwriter, and record producer, best known for songs such as "Beautiful", "Genie In A Bottle", "Fighter", "Hurt", "Dirrty", "Your Body", "Lady Marmalade", "Reflection", "I Turn To You", "Come On Over Baby (All I Want Is You)" "What A Girl Wants", and... read more I could listen to her voice forever! She is the best vocalist and tends to be a little underrated. She deserves to be much more well-known.
I hope one day everyone will listen to Christina. Just hearing her will make you fall in love!
Taylor Swift higher than Katy Perry and Christina Aguilera? Are you kidding me? Christina has an amazing vocal range, superior to Taylor's, and better songs too. Katy Perry puts much more creativity into her music than Taylor Swift, whose music is boring, uncreative, and rude.
Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter, is an American singer and actress, who started out in the popular pop/r&b girl group Destiny's Child. They had multiple top 5 hits such as "No, No, No", "Say My Name", "Bills, Bills, Bills", "Survivor", "Independent Women", "Bootylicious", and "Jumpin', Jumpin" from... read more Beyoncé is the best, hands down. Nobody can ever step to her and demand her crown.
She is in her own lane and is swerving.
How can Queen Bey not be in the top 5? Almost all the artists above her are inspired by her.
Lemonade and her self-titled 2013 album are some of the greatest albums of the 2010s.

She starred in the movie "Mamma Mia 2." She released her successful "Dancing Queen" album.

Cher has had hits for five decades. From Sonny & Cher to Believe, Cher has done it all!
Best pop singer of every century.
Demetria Devonne "Demi" Lovato is an American singer, songwriter, and actress. After appearing on the children's television series Barney & Friends as a child, she received her breakthrough role as Mitchie Torres in the Disney Channel television film Camp Rock and its sequel Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam... read more Demi is honestly one of the most underrated singers and vocalists of this generation. Many people brush her off as being "just another pop artist," but her vocals are truly out of this world and amazing. Her voice carries so much emotion and strength.
Not only is she incredibly talented, but she's also extremely inspiring and a great role model for teenagers to look up to. She speaks out against bullying and is an advocate for mental health and sobriety, as well as using her voice to spread awareness about social issues happening around the world. She definitely deserves to be higher up on the list.
Justin Randall Timberlake is an American singer-songwriter, actor, dancer, and record producer. Born and raised in Tennessee, he appeared on the television shows Star Search and The All-New Mickey Mouse Club as a child. Does much more really need to be said? Decent beats (although not made by him), decent lyrics, regardless of whether or not they were all basically around the same premise.
The top ten in this list at the moment are pathetic.
Pure epicness. Lots of awesome songs, especially Mirrors (lyrically), Suit and Tie (catchiness), and My Love (beat).
Great!
I don't really listen to his music, but he has a great and unique voice.
