Undeserving famous people

1. Ariana Grande. No one knew who this caterwauling chanteuse was until her brother joined the cast of Big Brother and wouldn't shut up about his sister being Ariana Grande. I swear he just insisted she was famous until it manifested for her.

Now she's everywhere. Completely undeserved. Music not even good enough for the Illuminati to embed secret messages in. Apparently, someone thought her music was in such poor taste that they bombed one of her concerts, isn't that awful? Though who could blame them?

She's mostly talentless and ordinary looking, but with enough cake foundation, false eyelashes and instagram followers to fool the masses. I'm not fooled, Ariana. I'm not fooled one bit.

Not an Ariana fan, OP, but do you realize she was in a Broadway musical when she was 14 years old? Many people have known of Ariana for a few years.

She also has a 4-octave vocal range.

OP - I totally agree. She is simply not A-list material. The most success she deserves would be having a supporting role in a cheesy Broadway musical.

R4 I didn't know that, because I don't give a single fuck about this talentless shrew except to observe that her notoriety is largely invented and her talents overstated.

She was pegged as the next Mariah Carey.

She was also a Nickelodeon star before that.

Just because OP hadn’t heard of her until she was mentioned on a dinosaur television network of all things doesn’t mean she’s undeserving.

I’m R1, and I’m not Frankie. I’m not even a big Ariana Grande fan.

I just think she’s a ridiculous, terrible choice for a question like this. We can all name dozens of people who’ve become very famous who don’t have half the talent of AG. Calling her talentless? You might not like her music, but she has vocal chops.

We’re going to see a run on Grande bashing here, and it just makes DL look embarrassing.

You're really up Ariana's crusty asshole today, aren't you? She's a half way decent mimic but that's where her talents stop and that's truth of the matter.

Let me put it this way.

If I were booking the entertainment for a 13 year old girl's bat mitzvah and I wanted someone that sounded LIKE Christina Aguilera but came at a fraction of the price I would hire Ariana Grande.

The use of the word “caterwauling” is disqualifying when it comes to a critique of anything of this century.

"BRAAADDD PITTTT" , screamed Jennifer Aniston as her assistant dragged her inebriated, half-naked body from the sands of Malibu beach.

"I must get rid of the burnt Angelina Jolie dolls!", thought her 52 year old assistant, Jennifer2.

"We share the same birthday and the same year, what happens to her, happens to ME, GODDAMMIT!", shrieked Jennifer2 to no one as she spread Aveeno lotion over Jennifer1's limp body and rolled her to shore like a drunk burrito.

What's even sicker about Ariana Grande and her brother is that she's got a racket going where they sell her dingleberried streak marked panties all across various online auction websites for extraordinarily vast sums of money and we're all just supposed to believe they just HAPPENED to end up there or were stolen by fans. Frankly it's abhorrent...

Arianna is such a weird singer with her breathy voice and slurred diction. It’s like a parody or something.

And has there ever been an artist who is so stuck up and conceited? Jesus. And she is so delusional about her relationship with the public. Like she seriously thinks she is the queen of England or something.

and all her stupid quirks and that pony tail and the donuts and just ick all around. She needs to come down to earth and realize she has two arms and legs and is made from the same flesh as everybody else.

My dental hygienist can sing better than her so she can relax and stop acting like she is God’s gift to the entertainment industry.

Sean Mendes would have never made it the old music industry days. If it weren’t for social media he wouldn’t have booked a deal I don’t think.

He has that dime a dozen high school musical puberty voice but would have been steered into a career modeling for Sears.

Did I imagine Kaley Cuoco admitting that she'd never have had her career without the breast implants she got at 18? I thought that was very forthright and refreshing. I might've imagined it I can't find the quote.

If she hadn't got them she might have developed as an actress and had a richer career, just not the kind of rich scoring The Big Bang Theory role brought her.

Whenever Ariana does a duet or is featured she seems like she doesn’t want to commit to it in case the other person loses popularity

Could she be any further away from GaGa? They are like in different rooms.

Prime example.

by Anonymousreply 36September 8, 2020 4:53 PM

R33 Are they singing through masks or lip synching? I would think the mask would distort their voice a bit if live singing.

Ariana trained for years as a singer. She both has some natural talent and years of honing her talent. I read that she now sings higher than she used to to protect her vocal cords.

This is Ariana singing at 14 (with Frankie pre blond days!)

I kind of agree. Ariana's music is pretty unremarkable, if not outright bad. Rain on Me made me like her a lot more, just being close to Goddess Gaga rubbed off on her - ROM is her best vocal performance in my opinion.

She is still a very naturally talented singer who could become a great singer over time, if not a great artist.

I agree R39. Grande, if she chooses who she works with, could become a pretty big pop star simply because she has more natural chops than most. But right now, despite her chart success, she doesn't really have any "classic" songs. Rain On Me might become one, but, as you say, that's more Gaga.
