Why she might be annoying:

At the John Lennon tribute concert 'Come Together,' she performed 'Imagine,' an oddly atheistic song for a gospel singer to cover.
Her first marriage ended in just over a year.
She said she divorced her second husband after God warned her that her life was in danger. (Seems God could have saved everyone a lot of trouble by telling her not to marry the guy in the first place.)

Why she might not be annoying:

According to Billboard, she was the best-selling gospel artist of the 2000-09 decade.
He song 'Never Give Up' was a response to the 9/11 attacks.
She said, 'I like to sing songs that in the end touch everybody. There is an honesty to these songs that gets into your blood.'
