Is Britney a generic popstar?

[rockztar23]

MTV Video Vanguard Award and Millenium Billboard Award says HI. She is the true definition of a POP STAR and not generic at all.

Well, she started the generic pop star trend so no. But also, yes. 

[Pscott]

SHE created the image of what we define as a 'pop star'. The brand that she sells only became generic when everyone tried to do what she did + she didn't try to re-invent herself

Glory proves she still has good music. She's pretty and is still a decent entertainer. She definitely has an "it" factor that a lot of people dont have. But she's void of a real personality and she doesn't do a lot to improve herself. She lips, doesn't promote, ect. Overall I'd say there's too much groundwork there to solidify her legend status - but yeah, these days she's pretty basic.

I honestly agree with this a lot.

This. Katy Perry is the epitome of generic. I mean look at her discography  

[everybodygoesdown]

No, but as of lately she is trying everything she can to be as generic as she possibly can be in her career.

not really. Britney used to be THE popstar.

but now she's not even generic. she's a notalgia act, that's why fans and the GP kind of put up with her current showmanship.

Sad, but true

Well maybe, but because she is the template that popstars base themselves off of. I wouldn't call her generic, just so iconic that she has been emulated to the point that she doesn't seem as relevant

So true tbh a lot of artists have used her formula and improved on it, making her less relevant and she hasn't evolved quick enough as an artist. I hate when other artists **** on her cause she literally paved the way for other young females to take over the industry.

Britney is like a cappuccino, a classic, the original.

Whereas other artists are serving Frappuccino with whipped cream, chocolate sauce and honeycomb pieces (McDonald's impact )

You get me? 

She needs to adapt her formula 

[britisthecolor]

she is generic but not too generic.

[IDKBT]

I don't think so, she is more than just hits, her impact is really big

[BritBreakitDown20]

she did experiment in her music.. i mean a generic popstar is a postar whos music sounds the same in every album.. thats not the case with britney at least she has variety 

she is not an alternative pop artist but she is not a generic one either

I love that gif 

[Spearsfan]

Not until 2011. 

I wouldn't say she is generic FF to present but she isn't that interesting. Especially careerwise. Nothing is that fun until the week before the album but it ends quick. 

I wish they could change that.

She popularized that **** blonde bombshell popstar image. So I can see why people would call her "generic" when everyone that was modeled after her was pretty generic themselves.

But do I think she's generic? No, her catalogue and aesthetic extend past basic.

Weren't that Madonna and Samantha Fox, though. I think they were the first ones to popularize that image.

Madonna's image was far more complex. She's touched a lot of different grounds that Britney hasn't.

Samantha Fox was a one hit wonder and extremely local.

Glory 

say hi... so no

You're a joke putting Glory with those gems lbr. 

Let it be known I like Glory before you butt hurt ******* try to complain (and you will). 

[BraveGraphics]

But is being generic is bad though ?

I thought pop music in general is generic tbh, and I don't see nothing wrong with that. Cheesy music is good for me when I am in a bad mood.

Britney had her moments when she shined and it is okay not to be that outstanding in her career anymore (even though she can do more sometimes but that is another story) but she seems happy, still selling Vegas shows.
