Being talented doesn't mean that it's worthy of appreciation, especially when it's hardly unique and uninteresting, and just about every other comment made on this thread. Of course some people will feel otherwise (like yourself). But these things always come with a difference of opinion which should be expected.
Not everyone will feel like he has talent worthy of applause.
Yes I totally agree with you. But I am confused as why they hate him so much. I will repeat again, He does not sing the type of music I like, but I have listened to one or two of his songs and I can tell you that he seems to be very much like the rest of the teen singers and bands. Hana Montana, the johns brothers etc etc.
But whatever. I think taste in music differ enourmously.
