Review in progress...

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

We're 99 percent there: just one more inline citation.

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
You might be interested in User:Ohconfucius/script/MOSNUM dates, especially for managing date formats in references.
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
The article mostly has sufficient citations for its content. Earwig throws up some content farms, which we can ignore. AllMusic comes up sort of high, but mostly for Juno Award titles and phrases like "third studio album". An inline citation is needed on the sentence beginning "In 2009, she released a third single".
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It has been five and a half months but the article has held up with some small additions. There was one raw link that needed to be converted to use {{cite tweet}}, but it had been added after nomination.
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
Awaiting a fix on the aforementioned sentence lacking a citation.

@Shanze1: The one change that needs to be made is the only thing holding this article back from passing. Raymie (t • c) 05:09, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

With major thanks to User:Wasted Time R, this citation information has now been supplied in a slightly reworked sentence. This is being passed for GA. Raymie (t • c) 01:28, 10 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
