I think she’s taking too much into her role; she receives some popularity after singing with that god-awful accent and all of a sudden, she’s on a level above everyone else.
It’s like those cliche movies where the nerd in a high school becomes popular, gets an ego, and ruins his life, then “learns a lesson.” She’s at the ego stage, she thinks that what she saying has a profound impact on what other peoples’ opinions should be. She think she’s big enough to act like a douche.
And in reality, it’s totally fine hating on her, because if our opinion isn’t worth anything, we shouldn’t even be having a discussion.
It isn’t really fair to relate boring pop music to the whole of Western civilization, while many Americans and Canadian do listen to those kind of songs and enjoy them, it’s because those songs cater to the simple-minded and easy-going, you don’t have to be in a clique or group to like that.
Songs from rock bands or rap artists, however, are all of a sudden a “different genre” just because you have to be different to listen to it. They aren’t mainstream, and so they don’t really have as big of an influence because they don’t “represent” the majority of music listeners. (They comes with the downside of snobbyness, you listen to obscure bands/rappers that ‘no one has ever heard of’ and you’re somehow allowed to look down your nose at them)
