The most "telling part" of the interview is her saying that pop lyrics don't really have a deep meaning but are fun and sexy? Okay then ... *cue eyeroll right about here* Some artists in the music business aren't writers. They select a bunch of songs from talented writers/producers (who don't necesarily won't to perform those songs themselves) and put their vocals on them. (And for the record, it's not because you can't pull something of live that you wouldn't be able to do in the studio when you have the luxury of trying more than once. People too often conclude that a bad live vocal means they autotuned the artistst in the studio) They try and put their vision into an album. The end result , whichever way you look at it, clearly has Cheryl's stamp on it. And this isn't even fully the case for Cheryl, she actually (co-)wrote quite a few tracks. Moreover she's an excellent performer. See, a healthy dose of criticism is one thing. But constantly throwing shade at the same artist and picking apart everything they do is a different story.
