Pop = Electro?

Is it me, or has most pop turned electro? Thanks to David Guetta, who is a huge sell-out slut, electro made its popularity into mainstream pop music. Guetta was amazing in being unique and interesting as a solo artist, but is now slowly blurring away from that. I can't tell pop artists apart anymore--they all want to be dance divas, or rather gods/goddesses. Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Lady Gaga, Kesha, and J. Lo all sound the same that they are pretty much the same person. Kelis is the only exception because she created an exquisite and captivating album garnering talent from Benny Benassi as well as David Guetta that flies beyond what other pop "divas" are capable of. Pop stars need to stop using electro unless they know what they are doing. Otherwise, it's just a huge embarrassment to electro music, including Peaches and Ellen Allien. Believe it or not, artists will get more respect for being themselves rather than being posers and keeping up with trends--crazy, I know.
