I'm sorry, it just really annoys me when people pretend not to recognize extremely famous names. Feigning ignorance is a major pet peeve of mine.
If you've turned on a radio or have visited a public place anytime within the past year or so, you've heard one of her songs before. If you've spoken to more than one person outside of the internet within that same timeframe, you've heard her name mentioned at least once before.
But you already know who she is, so IDK why I waste my breath on trolls.
I can honestly say that I have absolutely no idea who you’re talking about. And frankly; if she has fans like you- I’m better off from it.
If you think I have nothing better than to “pretend to not recognize eXtReMeLy famous names” then I’d imagine your insistence that I should k ow this prison is the least of your problems.
The bigger one being that you see to enjoy assuming things of people you’ve never met and know nothing about.
I don’t listen to the radio. I haven’t listened to public radio since the late 90’s. And I despise pop music in all of its corporate-sponsored saccharine forms. So it’s no stretch that I wouldn’t know who the flavor of the week is.
For the record, you could have just said who she was without being a dick about it.
This never had to happen, bud.
