I agree. The main female popstars of today have it harder because they appeal to a more specific demographics which is women and gays. That goes for Katy, Gaga, Beyonce and Rihanna. People like Beyoncé have very loyal fan bases which is why she is still here after almost 2 decades, but the music she choses to make is not Atypical in comparison to someone like Adele. So overall she has faired extremely well in todays industry. She is the longest standing and selling well out of all her peers. Gaga is not proving to be very consistent, it looks like people are abandoning her after 5 years. That's what happened when you peak so high too early.
