According to other articles, Simon Cowell finds the song "genius" and Lady Gaga also came to her defense as well.
I like the song because it is extremely catchy—there aren't many recent songs that have that "instant recognition power," you know: sing a couple words and it's in everyone's heads. It could have been Simon who said it, but what makes her so popular is people have an opinion of her; bad or good, irritated or not irritated, people have talked about her with an opinion, and that's what makes someone spread like wildfire (not to mention the way we can go viral on the internet now). Because there's an opinion and because there's so many people talking about her, people who don't know her will be more inclined to find out who she is.
And yes, I remember watching that Good Morning America video after another article mentioned it, and she sounds pretty good despite the song's vocals. A little nasal (but much less nasal than me—hahaha!), but she definitely has a voice to work with.
Maybe these Justin Bieber comparisons won't be too far off if she can get another "hit"...
