While I'm glad to see Chaka Khan, Donna Summer, Diana Ross, Deborah Harry, and some others on the list and all.. I can't help but to eye roll at Katy even being on the list to begin with. No Britney completely omitted from the list too? lol. um okay. I like Beyonce and all, but she doesn't quite supersede Madonna for a list like this lmao. Also, just kind of a general note but Patti Labelle always seems downplayed on these sort of lists/specials too. I still cringe at how Rolling Stone rated Christina above her on their vocalist ranking some time ago. I totally agree with you. Where was Patti LaBelle on the list? |

As fun as the list was, remember that they were making a TV show first and foremost... a TV show interested in attracting the widest variety of viewers. If you'd have had a list comprised of the classics like Diana, Donna, Stevie and Patti without Taylor, Beyonce, Katy, etc, you'd alienate a section of your viewers. Same if you'd neglect the older artists. And you have to space the new/old artists out over the 2-hour broadcast because if you got into a run of 4-older artists, you'd lose folks.
There's absolutely no validity to this list, and clearly it should be taken with a grain of salt. The "list" was a selling point for a TV show.

Wow, what a flawed list. I agree with a lot of the women listed, but they sure put them in an odd order.
