Are they still not filming HSM season 2? The first time I heard her sing, I was like this girl has bright future but did not expect her to smash globally like this

She wasn't a nobody is the thing. She had tons of fans from HSM and All I Want was a pretty big deal here last year. It's fine if you're new to her, but don't pretend she came out of nowhere. 

 

I think some of the older fans are just a bit apprehensive because we don't want people to switch up on her when the numbers are not up to par, but I'm personally loving that everybody's talking about her!

All I Want peaked at #90 and went Top 50 in 0 countries, hardly a big deal.  

 

She has only 325k twitter followers and 3.3M Instagram followers.

 

She is clearly not an industry plant based on the lack of playlisting but for most people she was (and still is) a nobody who came out of nowhere, there’s nothing wrong with acknowledging that fact. It makes her success even more impressive if anything.

You’re telling me the song that had virtually no playlisting or radio play, but still exploded is bolstered by payola? The song whose masters are owned by the 17-year old songwriter is somehow having so much payola from the record label that it’s decimating every other artist?

 

There’s just no logic to that argument.

it's ok to admit you're out of touch, you're not gonna lose a leg over it

Stfu! Imagine thinking Interscope will buy a random girl all these streams from around the world and from all platforms, then ignore their other artists like Lady Gaga.

Yes.  I’ve seen the show she’s the star of. The way you’re trying to argue this is payola only shows that you have no idea what you’re talking about. Stop embarrassing yourself, girl.
