    Her performances lean heavily on elaborate set pieces and fifty costume changes.

    And this means she has no talent because…?

    She can barely dance

    Neither can most choral singers, orchestral musicians, concert pianists, does that make them untalented?

    has the most generic singing voice, minimal vocal range

    Ah yes, famously it is impossible to be a talented mezzo-soprano.

    she still writes songs like a 20-year-old despite being 36 years old at this point. The most adversity she’s ever faced is “x celebrity was mean to me”. She has no artistic perspective and nothing interesting to say.

    Valid criticism! But it doesn’t mean she isn’t talented.

    In the grand scheme of things, there are hundreds of THOUSANDS of people with more talent than her making art right this moment.

    Sure, but does that mean she has no talent? There are lots of numbers bigger than 74, does than mean 74 is 0?

    I can’t play an instrument and sing at the same time. I also can’t dance. And there are MILLIONS of people more talented than I am in the world, making art. Does that mean I have no talent? Someone should really let the symphony chorus I’ve been singing in for the last 16 years know.

    The world isn’t black and white, my friend. You don’t have to be Weird Al or Geddy Lee or Mozart to be talented.
