He's definately right about that; another issue is that pop stars are dressing hideously indecently in public off stage too.

That’s not too surprising for someone associated with Kylie Minogue. She’s tame by pop standards, something I suspect is why Hollywood never allowed her to make it big in the US.

Madonna descended decades ago. Today, it’s unfortunately the age that’s descending.

Prediction: In five more years, pop singers won’t even bother singing, they’ll just get up on a stage and f****.

Is this the guy responsible for Rick Astley? If so, no punishment is too good for him.

Yeah, this reporter is right on top of things. /s

I wonder if they’ve ever heard of the idiot that decided she wanted to use the name Madona.

We descended there a long time ago. It was about 1985 when Tipper Gore heard an obscene song on one of her daughter’s Prince albums.

And even before then, there were concerns that records played backwards conveyed subliminal messages that promoted Satanism, drugs and suicide. While I don’t believe in subliminal messages, many rock groups did promote anti-social ideas.

Parents’ groups lobbied for warning labels on music, and now many artists release clean and explicit versions of their albums.

It’s a financially logically place for them to go. Nothing we can do about it. I counter it by listening to Black Sabbath and Merle Haggard, The Beatles etc.

Lady Gaga sexy? My cat is sexier than she is. In fact, my dead cat is sexier that Lady Gagme.

Katy Perry is sexy. And she can sing when she wants to. Rihanna is also sexy but looks too slutty sometimes. Beyonce is sensous. Singing is so-so.

I miss the older singers who could sing and had classy looks, not slutty looks. Mary Wells, Connie Stevens (Okay, she only sang one or two songs but she was pretty), Linda Scott (my secret love), Brenda Lee, members of the Supremes, Crystals, Ronettes, etc.

I’m an oldie but goodie, but I also have good taste in music and women.

The nature of art now is about shock value which is the easiest boundary to push. You don’t even have to be an artist to be shocking which explains the appalling lack of talent in today’s media culture. For example, how often do you see vulgarity passing for humor? Too many time with people like Bill Maher. However, true talent seeks out a challenge and confronts the harder things to convey. What is an example of a hard thing? Beauty is hard. Sex is easy but beauty is hard. But with liberal culture people have to be flattered, have to take the easy way out, have to be shocked again and again to remember they’re still alive and better off than that midget running around with a bone through his nose, have to envy the stars while thinking they are just like us regular folk... and so it goes.

You can still find beauty, class, talent and great musicianship. You just have to avoid major label, mass produced, AutoTuned garbage. Here’s my preference. http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/lauraainsworth2

Pornography and overall moral decline. Our society has degraded in many ways. When I was a child the following was seen as scandal:

1. Unwed mothers.

2.Bankruptcy

3.Taking government aid.

4. "Damn" was about as risque as language could get. Hearing the "F" word was jaw dropping.

5. Interracial marriage.

6. Theft in any form or fashion.

7. Dressing less than modestly. Most of what we see routinely see on the street was reserved for the bed room.

8. Blspehemy.

9. Premarital sex. It may have been going on, but if it was it was kept quiet. Now days, I see the term "hook up" and "F buddies" as commonplace.

10. Overall selfishness. Even in my earlier days, I saw those with misfortune getting taken care of by friends, neighbors, and families. Now days the mindset of "what's in it for me", or "not my problem" are prevalent.

So I don't think that pop music is alone in the wave of sleaze that has overtaken our society. Just one piece.

It isn’t Pop it’s the Culture that is dying. The state of Pop merely reflects what is happening to the Culture.

My wife and I took a cruise a few years ago and there happened to be a high school chorus on at the same time. Karaoke night was fun, since any random member of that high school chorus had more talent and a better voice than the pop "musician" connected to the song being sung.

The music is incidental to the rest of the act.
