there is some serious hate for male musicians who don't look like bums.
Steven Taylor great singer, but looks like a complete hobo.
Same with Nsync, Backstreet Boys, a bit with Maroon 5 and now Bieber. Crazy hate.

Way off base. I could care less what someone looks like, and I'm sure anyone who actually feels passionate about music feels the same way. Frankly, the fact that Justin Bieber's look is always brought up (by fans and "haters") shows that he's more about the image, rather than the music. That's one reason I hate him. I know there are a lot of people who hate him because of his looks, but it's the negative impact someone like him has on the music industry that I hate.
And I like that you brought up those names. Nsync, Backstreet Boys, and Maroon 5 actually have some merit. Not my cup of tea, and you won't find me listening to them. However, I acknowledge them much more than I acknowledge Justin Bieber.
