To all you detractors, who are your entertainers of choice?

John Farnham, who had more comebacks than a gay porn star?

Jimmy "Screaming Banshee" Barnes, another "oh woe me" addict of sympathy due to "numerous hospitalisations"?

Taylor "Swallow" Swift, who would be more suited to the cover of Best Bets Magazine?

At least Kylie Minogue has a diverse music style, collaborating with the likes of Nick Cave, Calvin Harris, Iggy Pop and Robbie Williams.
You’re not actually a Kylie fan are you Veggiepatch?
 
Does that include furries? Can’t get my fried brain around that one.
Had to look up furries - I suppose this includes them. I was too flummoxed to go through the whole list of these "alternatives".
 
Not in my top 100 musically based entertainers but she does have a few great songs. Just giving credit where credit is due.
You are right, I enjoyed Locomotion & Cant get you out of my head but that’s about all. I’m more into 60’s rock which is the era I grew up in. Still loves the Stones who all in their 80’s. Love Classical music these days, especially when I’m driving. Everyone is different so each to their own. Bagpipes hurt my ears but some love them.

Just like movies and TV shows, the like or dislike for music is purely subjective.
 
Dig out your 45s of Perry Como and Lawrence Welk you flaccid fossil!
at least you could understand the words and the melody
This would encompass the 47 yes 47 different types of sexuality now identified. So what chance does good old fashioned hetero have?
am not one who supports the alphabet lot
 
These people come into Australia for their concerts and take Australian money out of the country permanently and spend it where they live. How does this help our economy. Kylie is no longer an Australian in my opinion. She is just stealing money from our country.

Then there's the greatest fraud of all. Elvis Presley. The world's first manufactured "star", way before his time. Way ahead of the crass mass produced crud made by Kelly Clarkson, Adam Lambert and Anthony Callea. All these idle Idol contestants do is "yodel" there way through a song with a 30 second extended version of "AH-ah-AH-ah-AH". And the judges and audience love it.

I would prefer to listen to a Category 5 cyclone....
