One thing I’ve definitely wondered about female pop artists as of lately is: does image really matter more than talent? Here are some female artists whom I feel have definitely been overlooked. It’s sad to feel like Ashlee Simpson has gotten even more attention than some of these girls.
1. Charice (above)
I’ve never heard of this girl until one day I was watching MTV and heard her new single Pyramid featuring Iyaz. I was blown away by the voice that came out of this tiny girl, and I have been listening to her nonstop since.
2. Tamar Krepelian
Not too long ago I was watching reruns of the hills, and all of the sudden a song called New Day came on. I immediately looked up the artist and found out that this girl is amazing!
3. Kristinia DeBarge
I have to admit, I loved this girl’s single Goodbye. I figured I should listen to her whole album and WOW! It’s rare that I like almost every single song on an album but I definitely have to give it up to this girl.
4. Hilary Duff
Everyone is familiar with Hilary Duff: the actress and the Disney star. To be completely honest, I didn’t really enjoy her music all that much until l I came across her most recent album, Dignity. This is one of my favorite albums now. Every song tells a story, and every song is something I can relate to. Whenever I need girl time or a good dance beat, this album becomes my best friend. I just hope she comes out with more hits.
Do you agree or disagree with me? Which female pop stars would you list?

Hillary is so pretty
Charice has been amazing for sooo many years!!
The other two are pretty good as well
Charice has to be my favorite, her voice is phenomenal, but the music video makes it sounds so high and strange
guest
Hilary’s song “Fly” is so beautiful. Good post!

I didn’t like Charice’s song Pyramid because her voice is so autotuned
guest
Charice is super famous Oprah discovered hre
guest
duff? no. but i’ll give the other ones a listen!
guest
I don’t like Charice. Don’t know why and I’m aware I’m the only person in the world who isn’t wowed by her but…eh.
and Hilary Duff isn’t underrated. I remember the days when hilary duffs music was all over the place! so yesterday?!?!? that was my song!…back in the day… :p
guest
nice list
guest
I love Tamar. She is the one that is very underrated.

Thanks for recommending us these singer. I heard of Charice before she’s good but, I’m not into her singing style. As of Hilary Duff I always liked her. Her singing is getting better. As of the other two singers, I need to check them out.
guest
I’ve always liked Hilary Duff(:
guest
@littlemissrikki@xanga - if you’ve only listened to “Pyramid”, they autotuned the heck out of her voice. I love her regular singing but Pyramid is… ehhhh

guest
Duff is overlooked?

I agree about Charice. She just recently made an appearance at my local radio concert. Who knew such a small girl could sing so big?

I LOVE Hilary Duff. My favourite singer by far. Her music has gotten me through some of the toughest times in my life. I also loveeee Charice, she has an amazing voice <3
guest
I love MoZella also. Hilary Duff will always be a fave of mine even if she can’t sing.
guest
Hilary? No. But besides her, the good ones are always overlooked. That goes for anything, not just pop stars. So it’s actually a good sign if you’re a singer, musician, actor/actress, or whatever, and you’re not being continuously fed to everyone through the media.
guest
I like Kristinia, but she doesn’t have many other good songs besides the one hit “Goodbye” she had. Hilary was pretty good back in the day but I don’t think she will make a comeback soon and if she does I think she would have to be really out there with her music and go beyond what she used to sing to make herself popular again.
guest
hilary’s songs may be catchy, but her voice is horrible… why do they even allow her to sing?

i agree. theyre all really good and have great voices. a lot of singers this day of age cant hold a note.
guest
I actually think Hilary sounds amazing.
I love her songs. ^_^

I adore Kristina and Hilary.

I like Kristina DeBarge. Ooooooh, I used to have a thing for her uncle Chico back in the day when I was a teen. *dreams about Chico’s ripped arms and chest* Uuuuuuummmmmmmmmmmmm! *drools*
guest
Havnt heard of any of those girls but miss Duff.
guest

guest
i love hilary, hope shes gonna come out with more hit
guest
I love Hilary Duff
guest
Charice is a lot better live.
guest
Yeah uhh I don’t listen to any of these..
guest
I haven’t heard of the other girls, but I’ll definitely give them a listen. I snatched Hilary Duff’s CD Dignity right when it came out and was pleasantly surprised. It’s one of my fave girly pop albums
guest
First off, what in the WORLD is Hillary wearing?? Secondly- she can’t sing to save her life. Her voice on my list of top 10 pet peeves, true story.
guest
charice has been on every frickin’ channel including the home shopping network! i must say she’s a lot better singer than mariah carey as she was compared to her!
guest
I love all four of them very much! They’ve got great voices. I especially like Tamar and her song Purified
Glad to know someone else in the world knows of these talented ladies!

charice all the way

charice looks like miley in that picture! and I love hilary, she’s so confident and
sure of herself as an actress and singer.
guest
I <3 Hilary Duff. Not for her music, but for her acting and her outlook on things. She’s always been one of my favorites…except she looked like a crack addict last time I saw her.
guest
I love Hilary Duff

I always loved most of them. I loved Hilary Duff and still do, as an actress and a singer. She is absolutely gorgeous. I don;t know why they’re so under appreciated.
guest
Kate Voegele should be on this list.
guest
Hilary Duff..
LOL
guest
WHAT ABOUT KID SISTER?!
guest
I absolutely LOVE Charice
guest
I think Duff is overlooked because she has a bad habit of talking badly about other artists. It’s hard to respect someone who spends their time saying how this group is bad and that band looks creepy and should have their album taken off shelves so as to not scare little children. She’s just very disrespectful.
And Kristina had one song three summers ago. Her other stuff is ew.
Charice is good, but as someone stated, she uses that autotone in that Pyramid song. She has a great voice alone and doesn’t need that crap. Leave it to the rappers who suck.
I haven’t heard of that second one before, so I might look her up.
guest
Hi!!
You’re right about the first three, but I haven’t heard much about Hilary Duff lately. I’ve heard that she lives in Edmonton, engaged to hockey player Mike Comrie. I wish her all the best though, even though stars are all hype anyway.

It’s funny that none of these girls is showing much skin. They’re just being normal chicks….
Coincidence???
guest
I just listened to all of them.
And I didn’t think Charice’s song was that great.
I like Tamar though.
Kristina is kind of annoying.
And I used to love Hilary Duff.
Honestly though I think a lot of female artists are looked over because they don’t have enough originality or anything that stands out.
My favorite female artist would probably be Regina Spektor her music is so good and original and not just semi catchy pop music.
guest
Kristina DeBarge had that super annoying song on the radio!! & I had no idea Hillary came out with a new CD!
guest
they all r so beautiful.. ^^
