Although most musicians stick to one genre for their entire career, sometimes some decide to explore new horizons, out of curiosity or to diversify their audience. From Taylor Swift and the Jonas Brothers to Miley Cyrus and Katy Perry, check out these music stars who have moved from one genre to another without remorse.

Before she became the undisputed princess of pop, Taylor Swift was considered the rising star of country music. Already well-known at the time, the singer began her transition to a more mainstream sound with her 2012 album, 'Red', which included the unforgettable hits '22' and 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together'.

After spending her entire childhood surrounded by country music, Miley seemed destined to follow in the footsteps of her father Billy Ray Cyrus. However, thanks to the sitcom 'Hannah Montana', the singer was able to explore some very clean pop sounds under the tutelage of Disney, before transitioning to a much more mature version in the early 2010s. Refusing to be pigeonholed, the young star now essays a sound that is part pop, part rock'n'roll, and sometimes even a little disco.

Before singing RnB songs with the Black Eyed Peas, Fergie was part of a sexy pop group called Wild Orchid. However, she joined the Black Eyed Peas in the early 2000s and she's subsequently achieved huge success, with the band and as a solo artist.

Pink was part of the RnB group Choice until 1995, when a record company believed in her solo potential and offered her a chance to become a pop star. Nearly three decades on, and it's safe to say they made a good call!

The Jonas Brothers rose to fame with their catchy pop-rock songs and messy hair. Popularized by Disney products like 'Hannah Montana' and 'Camp Rock', the three brothers initially struggled to shed their innocent image and split up for several years before returning to the limelight in 2019 with a completely pop, and much more mature, style.

The Canadian singer is best known for her very punk rock debut, which included her hits 'Complicated' and 'Sk8er Boi'. However, the star gradually adopted a much softer pop rock aesthetic with her albums 'The Best Damn Thing' and 'Goodbye Lullaby'. Avril is now fully dedicated to pop music.

Although best known for their dance music, Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter began their careers as punk musicians. But after discovering their passion for electronic music, they never looked back.

Gwen Stefani was part of the rock band No Doubt for several years before embarking on a solo pop career. Since then, she's established herself as one of the biggest names in the music business.

Like the Jonas Brothers, Demi Lovato made her name with pop rock songs. After a media absence due to her addiction struggles, the star returned with the album called 'Unbroken' in 2011, which marked her entry into the world of hard pop. She's subsequently enjoyed huge success with her catchy pop hits.

Prior to the release of 'One of The Boys', the album that put her on the map, Katy sang Christian songs under her birth name, Katy Hudson. Eventually, the star changed her stage name and turned to much more adult lyrics. Her first worldwide hit was the chart-topping 'I Kissed a Girl'.
