10. Madonna - She is getting old, and what was once a great career is now looking like someone holding on for dear life. She pushed the envelope as far as women go in music back in the eighties. In today’s market she is just another over the hill eighties talent.

9. Eminem - Without Dr. Dre Eminem would be just another trailer trash wanna-be! Ask Snoop Dog what happens once the limelight of Dre fades away? I once thought eM & M was the newest Elvis, taking black music to white kids everywhere. But he is rude, ignorant, and he keeps getting worse... He also looks more like a rougher Justin Timberlake everyday! Now he started a band and sings about lead singers being arrogant? It will be a happy day in musicland when he is shown for what he really is... A Corporate kiss @ss white boy who has ridin' Dre's coattails to the top! My BAND MY BAND, My Band...

8. Ozzy Osborne - I remember growing up with eighties girls carving OZZY into their hands. Talk about sellout? Ever since Sharon "rescued" Ozzy, he has been more commercial than Pepsi... WHO HE DID A COMMERCIAL FOR RECENTLY. .. WITH THE OSMOND'S??? At first we wanted to see into his home.. NOW WE ARE SUBJECTED TO HIS UGLY TALENTLESS KIDS DAY AFTER DAY... AND A GROUPIE WIFE?? If Bob Dylan is a Sellout, than Ozzy Osborne is a SUPERFLY DUPERLY SELLOUT! This year OZZFEST will probably be done by MTV?

7. Metallica - Sure they had a few hits in the late eighties, early nineties, BUT WHAT ABOUT STAYING POWER? HUSH LITTLE BABY DON'T SAY A WORD, unless we are going after Internet music swappers trying to steal our one or two hits we had! HELP!

6. Pink - Another one or two hit wonder that is part of the "POP CELEBRITY MTV POSSE". Now she is going to play Janis Joplin in a movie? Can she even act, cuz Janis was a great actress? Why do these people get protected by the press?

5. George Michael - VOTED THE NUMBER 1 ARTIST IN ENGLAND? Followed closely by Elton John... What if these 2 met in a bathroom? POP star who every guy idolized in the eighties... No wonder the chicks liked him so much?

4. Michael Jackson - The FREAK a.k.a. THE KING OF POP! Bought the Beatles catalog and sold Revolution to a shoe ad? has a disposable nose and has a thing for young boys.. If only he could be deported or live in a country that wants him? He is the scariest looking guy in Music and he didn't have that many hits? He was a hit maker, but his crown was taken away years ago... Hang it up Mike!

3. Justin Timberlake - The NEW King of Pop! Was annoying in the boy band INSYNC, and had NERD create a hit solo album.. It’s GOOD TO BE JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE (According to MTV). Sure he took Brittany's virginity and has dated a few hotties, but so did George Michael? His music is all NERD, he couldn't write his way out of a paper bag. MTV pumps more money into this guy than the US does into Iraq..

2. Usher - Name one hit this guy had? Yet he appears in movies, and is all over the American press. Give it up shorty! he made this list as he is #1 on the Rolling Stone Magazine list? Maybe MTV and Rolling Stone should try something new? They used to be hip, now they are so old they need hip replacements.

1. Brittany Spears - OK even I thought she was hot at first, but hot doesn't sell everything? Her voice gets worse as the years go by. I have also never seen her sing live. She has more overdubs than a George Lucas movie. She is getting old and her pasty face is not looking so hot these days.. Try to scrape some of that make up off and write a song yourself?

Madonna was overrated 20 years ago when she first got famous and she is definitely still way overrated. She just climbed the MTV age and strong backing from her record label. Several lawsuits she filed with big bank didn't hurt her either.

I was kinda hoping this list would be more substance than "they're not hot or as popular anymore" but whatever.

This list is pure crap, no substance just full of hate. Has no idea of music what so ever. It's like it was written by a ten year old.

I agree, all the music released by Madonna these days is a bag full of garbage! Is there a way to stop this old lady?

This list is crap!! If I wasn't sure that this person just doesn't know music now I am. When you say that Michael Jackson isn't good based on his personal life it shows how uninformed you really are.
 
P.S To the person above me, Michael Jackson had 13 #1 hits but you are not too far off =)

the beatles are overrated, so is Led Zeppelin, pretty much anyone old (Michael Jackson, Elton John, Blondie, Pink Floyd, Hendrix, the list could go on and on) is overrated. Every old song is overrated.

It's true, you can fool most of the people most of the time and Jackson proved it. A terrifically cute kid, he sparkled as a pre-adolescent but his sensibilities never truly changed. He remained an arrested personality, moved with brilliant but strikingly incongruent choreography that signified the soul of a sick puppy, and pretended to sing love songs to and about teenage girls as long as he lived. "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough" of what? Plastic surgery. Money. Fame. Pathos. Loneliness. Little boys. And those are the themes you wanna dance to? Hey, it's a free country.
