I can name at least four that are more irritating...

Sporty Spice

No way is Sporty more irritating than Ginger. Not in a million years.

I'll leave the little blonde Spice out of this, because I think she's kinda hot and slutty....but still a little bit irritating.
You know she wants you.

:laughing: :laughing: You two sound like you're coming straight from a Spice Girls fansite... :grin:

Yeah, you got a problem with that? Blind-fitter and I RUN a Spice Girls fansite. And we make a pretty penny doing it, too....well, at least we did for about two years back in the 90's.

Did we forget the banshee from hell?

Melanie

P.S. I thought of sparing you this ultimate blasphemy of music as we know it. But, I couldn't resist!

You've been forewarned!

Enjoy!

Don't listen

But is she, Melanie, irritating as a person? Or has she just made an irritating record? There is a distinction to be made. There are other threads for discussion of annoying songs. Plenty of those annoying songs have been made by perfectly decent, pleasant and grounded, non-irritating people.

Isn't the purpose of this chart/this thread to identify pop-star people who are particularly irritating? Not songs we find annoying, not artists of whom we are weary due to over-exposure, but people who are notable specifically for their irritating behaviours, mannerisms, personalities, etc.?

An irritating pop-star? Melanie might fit the bill; I've no idea. Never encountered her either in the flesh or on TV, nor read any interview with her. No idea what she is like as a personality. One thing's for sure: she isn't exactly topical, current, in-the-public-eye, etc.

I would've thought, after listening to only one bar from her, that you might've found her slightly annoying. I know I did.

Now, certainly I realize just because her music is terrible doesn't make her a terrible person. I'm sure she's sweet, kind and the gentlest of gentle. Only mere speculation on my part leads me to believe she may in fact be irritating in real life.

But, all things set aside, IMHO, she can't sing worth squat even though she's always sitting! A catchy beat will never hide sad lyrics.

I see your point though, B-F.

it would appear as thought America doesn't put out many irritating pop stars. ;)

Apparently, this poll was conducted on a British web site, and the poll shows an obvious British Isles bias. It is hard to conceive that if polled on an international basis, the US would be left out, with Britney Spears as such an obvious candidate, among others.

Glad to be of service, Ms. Lea.

I thinks she was famous for this song... which brings me nice memories... :)

I could be wrong like many times before but I believe it was this one that took her over the edge into stardom . . .

Disclaimer: Really, don't listen . . .

Post script:

The one that counts how many times she says "Lay Down" gets a special prize along w/a complimentary ride in the white step-van with the driver/ passenger wearing the same...

Joss Stone was fine until she went to America to record her second album. She came back for the brits last year (I think) wearing a ridiculous dress, with a stupid mid-atlantic accent and was generally quite irritating. She had totally lost all her boho charm!

I just read this and I'm quite shocked. I happen to have a mid-Atlantic accent and I've been told that I sound rather erudite, charming and even melifluous. I'm hurt. Rach, how could you?

[spoilerq:1]Musical interlude[/spoilerq]

[spoilera:1]Rockstar ~ Nickleback

I'm through with standing in line

to clubs we'll never get in

It's like the bottom of the ninth

and I'm never gonna win

This life hasn't turned out

quite the way I want it to be

I want a brand new house

on an episode of Cribs

and a bathroom I can play baseball in

And a king size tub big enough

for ten plus me

I'll need a credit card that's got no limit

And a big black jet with a bedroom in it

Gonna join the mile high club

At thirty-seven thousand feet

I want a new tour bus full of old guitars

My own star on Hollywood Boulevard

Somewhere between Cher and

James Dean is fine for me

I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame

I'd even cut my hair and change my name

'Cause we all just wanna be big rock stars

And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars

The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat

And we'll hang out in the coolest bars

In the VIP with the movie stars

Every good gold digger's

Gonna wind up there

Every Playboy bunny

With her bleach blonde hair

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

I wanna be great like Elvis without the tassels

Hire eight body guards that love to beat up assholes

Sign a couple autographs

So I can eat my meals for free

I think I'm gonna dress my ass

with the latest fashion

Get a front door key to the Platboy mansion

Gonna date a centerfold that loves to

blow my money for me

I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame

I'd even cut my hair and change my name

'Cause we all just wanna be big rock stars

And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars

The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat

And we'll hang out in the coolest bars

In the VIP with the movie stars

Every good gold digger's

Gonna wind up there

Every Playboy bunny

With her bleach blonde hair

And we'll hide out in the private rooms

With the latest dictionary and

today's who's who

They'll get you anything

with that evil smile

Everybody's got a

Drug dealer on speed dial

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

Hey hey I wanna be a rockstar

I'm gonna sing those songs

that offend the censors

Gonna pop my pills

from a pez dispenser

When they ask why I drink all day

I'll say because I can

I'll get washed-up singers writing all my songs

Lip sync em every night so I don't get 'em wrong

Then listen to the fans tell me how damn good I am

I'm gonna trade this life for fortune and fame

I'd even cut my hair and change my name

'Cause we all just wanna be big rock stars

And live in hilltop houses driving fifteen cars

The girls come easy and the drugs come cheap

We'll all stay skinny 'cause we just won't eat

And we'll hang out in the coolest bars

In the VIP with the movie stars

Every good gold digger's

Gonna wind up there

Every Playboy bunny

With her bleach blonde hair

And we'll hide out in the private rooms

With the latest dictionary and

today's who's who

They'll get you anything

ok I probably have one too, but my point is that she didn't used to, she switched from her british accent to a mid-altantic accent when she moved. I am told by british people that these switches are annoying, but I am no expert
