My argument, as weak as it is, has always been, "at least she plays and instrument and writes her own material."
I once read an article about how she was offered a contract in L.A. by some of the same people who "created" Britney, Christina, Beyonce and the like. She turned it down becuase she wanted to use her own material. To me, giving an L.A. contract the middle finger is pretty "punk".
just my $.02
