In the end of the day, it is all about personal preference. I hate and detest bubblegum pop (likes of Katy Perry, Kesha, One Direction, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, Rebecca Black, Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Justin Bieber, Spice Girls, Kylie Minogue, Pussycat Dolls, all pop boybands and girlbands, and more) - I actually prefer Gangnam Style and novelty songs over bubblegum pop

Bubblegum pop, the first time i've ever heard of that phrase

ByGoneYrs

If you go to a Nifty Fifties café

Menu | Nifty Fifty's

Check out their menu, a lot of 1950's clasics, including a couple of Sodas called: Blue Raspberry Bubble Gum, Bubble Gum, Cherry Bubble Gum

Click on their menu and have a see what they sell, it is a very fun place to go and eat.

That's confused me even more because people like justin are now, not 1950's

The 1950s were before my time but that was the era of Malt shops, drive in movies, roller skates, and the beginning of pop music.

Interesting to read about the origins of bubblegum pop, thanks for sharing. I think I first saw it used online in early or mid 2000s in relation to Britney, Christina, all the boy and girl bands big in the era, etc. But I never really bothered to google where it came from.

Speaking of bubblegum pop, "Dimmu Borgir is bubblegum pop compared to what I listen to" has got to be one of my favorite jokes (at least I choose to believe it was a joke). Also cracks me up to see "Cradle of Filth is Hot Topic black metal!!!!!!!!" pop up in comment sections to this day. Hopefully that's also joking/trolling because I don't think anyone even labels CoF any kind of bm these days.

ETA: I just checked out this band because a podcast recommended them. They sound interesting:

I forgot i also have Five Finger Death punch.

I got so many gig tickets lying around I can't think which is left.

fictitious ways

I sometimes do that when I buy tickets way in advance and then they pop up and I'm like "oh yeah!"

I keep them on my phone's calendar, just in case.
