Exactly. She knows where she's going, she's a very clever woman. She's not just an "outfit", she's also a tremendous performer and from someone who doesn't like pop music in the first place, I can say she's very good at it.

Well she still has to stand the test of time yet. Shes only like 23 or something

I think it's great that she is trying to be different and entertain us all.

But, i'm worried that she's doing too much at once and then in the future she could be criticized for trying too hard.

The OTT costumes are all part of her appeal.The truth is her debut album would of gone unnoticed without all the media coverage she's gotten because of her fraeky personality, nor would she have as many fans.But so what?Her music is amazing,she is an extremely talented artist and an incredible performer.If she needs to act and dress a certain way to get her music noticed then let her.She doesn't have any advantage over all the other artist in the game, she didn't come from a reality TV show nor is she related to any big music mogul's. She did everything she could to take over the charts and it worked so well done to her.She deserves all the success and nobody can deny that.

My problem with her is that she tries way too hard. Many artists before her have managed to shock people by doing much less (Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, Madonna etc) and it's a shame because if she wasn't the way she is, no one would really know about the music.
