You said "singer, etc.." implying you were talking about music artists. I generously included, in my answer, that she was not a musical artist of any kind, singer or otherwise. Thus I feel it was also clear that I was answering on the basis that you were talking about musical artists, as opposed, for example, to painters or sculptors.
The parenthetical "singer, etc." merely clarified that I was not limiting the term "Artist" to to painters and the like. Without the parenthetical, the question could have been interpreted as including painters and the like, while excluding singers and the like.
Well in that case your question was vague and open to misinterpretation.
Only in Durham ;-)

Wooo! Nearly withdrew my answer to switch in Charlize Theron, glad I stuck with it.

I was going to wait until I got to a desktop to make it easier to update the record, but looks like that hasn't been updated in a while, so fine just letting it fade.

Jennifer Lopez is a musical artist so it couldn't have been this.
