I always figured that being sexy was an added plus to your chances of making it as a female singer, but now, a recent CNN article divulges that it’s basically a requirement. And this factor could be a large reason why Melinda Dolittle was untimely sent home from American Idol.
In the article, a music executive recounts an experience with a girl who was extremely talented, but overweight, flat-chested, and not particularly beautiful. No matter how great her voice was, there was absolutely no way she could ever get signed.
Although I had a slight incling to this trend, I did not realize it had become so blatantly obvious. Of course, attractive people are technically more pleasant and intriguing to look at. But, when it comes down to the actual music and songs that I listen to in my headphones, I could care less if the person belting out the notes is a three eyed ogre, as long as the music rocks.
