Pop stands for popular, and a pop singer has to work very hard to become popular. He must either give the public what they already want, or he must find a new way of singing that will attract their attention.

The life of a successful pop singer isnt at all easy. He can only relax when he is alone, because everything he does is watched and reported in the special newspaper written for the fans(歌迷).
