Late singer Lata Mangeshkar has featured in Rolling Stone's 200 Best Singers of All Time list at the 84th spot.

Speaking about Lata Mangeshkar, Rolling Stone wrote 'Rolling Stone, talking about Lata wrote, "The crystalline, eternally girlish voice of 'the Melody Queen' is a cornerstone of Indian pop music, with a global influence spread via Bollywood films, whose golden era she defined. Lata was the empress of playback singers, the vocal magicians who perform songs for actors to lip-sync in lavish movie musicals, recording over 7,000 such songs, by some estimates.' 

The list also includes BTS' youngest singer Jungkook, Taylor Swift among others. However, singer Celine Dion has been excluded from it and her fans are expressing their displeasure on Twitter.

While commenting on the article, one user wrote 'Any “greatest singers” list that doesn’t include Celine Dion is simply wrong' While some users also questioned the credibility of the article for excluding her from the list.

Some other famous singers included in the list were Adele (22), Lady Gaga (58), Rihanna, Michael Jackson (86), Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan (91)
