Kylie is not american.

Not every pop singer in the western market is american remember. =P

I don't have favourite, before I mostly liked groups and bands, not solo artits. And mostly I liked those artists that released songs I liked, I was never a fan.

Brittney of course, I honestly don't give a crap about what people say about her, she's cool and I'm happy for her being a mother! Gwen Stefani of course, as well as Mariah Carey. :)

I listen to lots of western stuff, mostly pop but not all of it is. I like Madonna, Britney, Gwen Stefani, Sarah McLachlan, Evanescence, Michelle Branch, Green Day, Kelly Clarkson, Alicia Keys...the list goes on...

Oh, and countless american DJs. Electronic music doesn't just come from europe ya know :D

KELLY CLARKSON ALL THE WAY SHE IS THE BEST!!!

What can I say...
i like very much "metal".
So: Lacuna Coil, Nightwish, Within Temptation, Shaaman, Hammerfall, Stratovarius....

I think that I'd have to agree. :P

i like many Western singers..
Britney Spears, Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Nine Inch Nails, Kelly Clarkson, 3 Doors Down, Hilary Duff of course, Alicia Keys, Norah Jones, Daniel Powter, The Calling and Charlotte Church even tho she's not american.

Michael Jackson.

Well, US music for me is really boring. I'm bored of listening the same music and seeing the same boring artists all time.
Sincerelly I hate Britney; but I think I like Hilary Duff or Ashlee Simpson (but just one or another song on the radio) That's all.

And about Latin music (because Latin music is American Western music too) I think that latin pop music really su*ck*s (including that mexican artists always copies japanese singers style and songs). But I like reggaeton music a little.

Those bands aren't american, just european. But I like european metal too much :P Like: Nightwish, Therion, Tristania, Within Temptation, Theatre of Tragedy, After Forever, Epica, Lacuna Coil, Opera IX, Asrai, Drastique, Cradle of Filth, Xzoriath, Dying Tears.....and much more^^
