About this gallery...

Welcome to our gallery of the 25 best female singers of all time! It's impossible to be truly objective, but this light-hearted opinion piece celebrates our favorite voices. Explore the list and share your own favorite artists in the comments!

Ariana Grande

25. Ariana Grande

Ariana Grande is a Grammy-winning singer who seamlessly blends pop, R&B, and soul genres. She began singing at a very young age, but she has never trained as a vocalist, which sometimes leaves lapses in her technique... Still, iconic.

Top 25 Female Singers britney

24. Britney Spears

Britney Spears is a Madonna for the millennial generation. She's extraordinarily catchy, and combines genius songs with impeccable dance performances (or at least she did before the hard times).

Top 25 Female Singers Lana

23. Lana Del Rey

Lana Del Rey is not everyone's cup of tea, but she can make you feel emotionally connected to another world. Her voice has this dreamlike quality, and her texts can make you feel love and pain on spiritual levels. So cool, so catchy, we love Lana!

Lady Gaga

22. Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga is a very consistent singer with an extraordinary talent for writing and singing. She has elevated pop music into an art form, combining charisma with musical innovations. She's also now a surprisingly good actress.

Taylor Swift

21. Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift is widely regarded as a trailblazer of the 21st century. She plays several instruments and writes her material, putting interesting Easter eggs and puzzles that keep the fan base engaged. Each of her albums is different, but each is indeed written about her life.

Top 25 Female Singers Rihanna

20. Rihanna

Rihanna is a real superstar who knows how to combine a distinctive voice with an always-fashionable appearance. Her ability to mesh multiple genres is a real strength that helps her discography have something for everyone. A certified legend.

Top 25 Female Singers Shakira

19. Shakira

Neither her hips nor voice lie. Shakira is an incredible vocalist with millions of fans worldwide, and besides that World Cup anthem, we've loved her work. She's certainly less active these days, but we might see one or two more Shakira bangers in our lifetime.

Amy Winehouse

18. Amy Winehouse

Amy Winehouse was a female singer with incredible technical skills who understood music deeply. She always gave her soul to music, and her life performances were amazing. It still hurts that we lost Amy so young.

Etta James

17. Etta James

Etta James is an early legend that walked so that the rest of these ladies could run. Despite heartfelt performances and great range, we think Etta hasn't had the lasting rep she deserves.

Top 25 Female Singers Celine

16. Celine Dion

Celine Dion has used her wonderful voice to enjoy a very successful career; she has sold more than 220 million albums worldwide! And it's well-deserved, because out of all the ladies on this list, Celine would probably have one of the best odds going toe to toe with an opera singer in terms of raw skill and power.

Top 25 Female Singers Nina

15. Nina Simone

So many bangers, but our favorite is her cover of Baltimore. Nina Simone was a profoundly gifted singer, musician, and songwriter. Her singing and piano playing were amazing, and her unique, deep voice had unrivaled emotional power.

Top 25 Female Singers Cher

14. Cher

Cher has presence, voice, and charisma, which made her perfect for becoming a pop culture legend. And it might surprise you to know Cher has been around since the 70s! But she really hit her stride with Believe in 1998.

Patti La Belle

13. Patti LaBelle

Patti LaBelle was a powerhouse vocalist, with a strong and consistent voice that could sustain notes for an absurdly long amount of time. When it comes to delivery and interpretation, Patti did it with soul like no other!

Top 25 Female Singers Stevie Nicks

12. Stevie Nicks

Stevie Nicks is a very talented female singer with a superb talent for songwriting. And she has one of the greatest voices of rock n'roll, which is why she still resonates with younger audiences.

Janis Joplin

11. Janis Joplin

Surprised? Don't be! Janis Joplin is an incredible vocalist whose raw and powerful voice helped redefined pop music. Despite her short career and struggles with drugs, her unique style left an undeniable imprint.

Top 25 Female Singers Diana Ross

10. Diana Ross

Diana Ross has one of the longest careers on the list, and worked with the same tenacity throughout her whole life. The female vocalist released 25 studio albums, and numerous singles, in a unique, impeccable style.

Tina Turner

9. Tina Turner

Tina Turner has over 14 solo albums, and among them some certified bangers. Sadly, her music was pretty "of it's time", and we think she deserves more respect than she currently gets.

Billie Holiday

8. Billie Holiday

Billie Holiday was a great female vocalist with a deeply personal style which redefined jazz and blues singing. Billie sang about pain, longing, and love, and left us with music as beautiful as it is haunting.

Ella Fitzgerald

7. Ella Fitzgerald

Ella Fitzgerald, or the "First Lady of Song", was a talented singer who could effortlessly glide through jazz, swing, and pop. Her extraordinary vocal range made her one of the most influential singers of the 20th century.

Adele

6. Adele

Adele is a characterful, and powerful singer who also deserves credit for being an incredible live performer. Her music is a combination of soul and pop, with deeply personal lyrics, and heartfelt vocals.

Beyoncé

5. Beyoncé

Beyoncé is probably the most commercially successful lady on the list, and it's well-deserved. She's a hardworking modern icon with incredible voice control, talent, and charisma. This has earned Beyoncé a place in the top 5, for us.

Top 25 Female Singers Mariah

4. Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey is a vocal phenomenon renowned for popularizing whistle register in pop music. Thanks to her great agility and tone, she topped the charts with numerous hits. But, like everyone, we have heard enough of that Christmas song.

Top 25 Female Singers Whitney Houston

3. Whitney Houston

In terms of vocal performance, Whitney Houston is one of the greatest singers of all time, either male or female, with unmatched range and emotional depth. She was able to hit high notes effortlessly, and she put that talent to fantastic use.

Top 25 Female Singers Madonna

2. Madonna

Yep, we have the Queen of Pop in second place. Madonna is one of the most iconic female singers of all time, and has consistently made catchy, well-written singles that stick in your mind. Her songs topped charts across decades and broke numerous records.

Aretha Franklin

1. Aretha Franklin

Who else? Aretha Franklin was remarkably talented and consistently powerful throughout her career. She could sing soul, rock, jazz, broadway, you name it! This is what sets her apart from other great vocalists.
