I have been in the middle of an argument between two of my friends for a long time now and so I have finally decided to solve it by asking my loyal readers to help me out if you will.
So I am going to list the pro's and con's of both of the fabulous females and its up to you to decide who is the victor and silence my dear friends.
Firstly, Pixie Lott.
Well Pixie Lott has come along way since she auditioned for Britannia High in 2007 and was turned down because she had a 'soulful' voice. However, that initial let down got her two chart topping albums that were so successful that they have sold close to 1.2 million copies together since their release. Her début hit with 'Turn It Up' (2009) contained a eclectic mix of lively upbeat tunes and slower more emotional tracks that are a pleasure to listen to. The album went double platinum and was released with a deluxe version called 'Turn It Up Louder' which included a song with Jason Derulo. After this in 2011 came her second hit 'Young Foolish Happy' which has included 3 top ten hits and scored an entry to the charts at number 1. She has won 7 awards from Virgin Media Music Awards to MTV European Music Awards.
While her music career shines, she has had several fashion collections with Lipsy, which sell out almost instantly, including the A/W 2011 collection, pieces of which you can see at lipsy.co.uk.
So to sum up Pixie Lott is a fashionable, talented, 21 year old with songs to make you party or just to improve your mood. And she has a hot boyfriend. And she is a London girl. And she is brave with her look.
Does it mean she wins the new Brit pop princess title though?
Secondly Adele.
Adele Laurie Blue Adkins. London girl - World Class sensation. From obscurity to 2007 when she won the Critics Choice award at The Brits, Adele's assent to fame has been astronomical. Her début single '19' (she was 19 at the time), which she released in 2008 was an instant commercial and critical success and has since become 4 times platinum. It went straight to number 1 on the UK charts and was highly regarded on the Billboard 200. Then in 2011, Adele released 21 and three songs off the album became worldwide number one. She has won 37 awards up to date with 93 nominations ranging from Brits to Grammy's.
So for fashion Adele tends to stick to dark colours to accentuate her fab red hair that is always shiny and brilliant. She loves both heels and flats and oozes an ease of style that is subtle. In fact in September 2011 she was on the cover of Vogue UK and is also to be on the cover of Vogue US for March 2012.
So to sum Adele's candidacy up: She is really successful, had a very relatable life, is beautiful and has songs that read like a biography. She is glamorous yet soft. Tough with an edge. Down to Earth with a voice that is out of this world.
Does she win Brit Pop Princess however?
So here it is, as best as I can make the cases for the two amazing women that dominate British music, very similar and yet worlds apart. It's over to you know folks,
Comment or let me know on facebook who you think wins!
