Beautiful songstress behind "Promiscous Girl", "Maneater" et al

ENFP

N over S as an S would be a better dancer(!) and more grounded in reality. She has a great imagination, really able to see possibilities, how things should be etc which suggests N.

YouTube - Nelly Furtado - Interview On Liquid News

She's also zany and insane which further suggests ENFP :p

All massive stereotypes aside, I really do see a lot of ENFP in her.

She looks more like an ESFP to me, ESFJ as a possible second.

Do you have trouble reading or something? I said because she looks like one.

No, I don't.

I am just curious as to why she looks like one to you. Is something screaming sensor?

I think ENFPs are often confused for ESFPs. But I thought her Ne dominance was obvious:

I don't see any Ne. The song is clearly Fi.

And as I said, she doesn't even look like a ENFP.

Se is quite obvious by the way her eyes look. Both Se and Fi are quite obvious in them.

You should leave typing to me. You clearly don't know what you're talking about.

Let's not leave this hanging. Unanimous that she's E and most people seem to think F and P...

^E.N.F.P

She's intuitive. Her songs, which are mostly centered around the concept of personal identity, consist mainly of metaphors and similes. Her rise to popularity in 2000 was fueled because she was seen as an alternative to the bubble gum pop artists of that time. She has only recently begun to make "mainstream" music. Here are part of the lyrics from her song "Island of Wonder," from the album Folklore, written by her in English and Portuguese. Intuitive or sensor?

The man wrinkles his face
But it's already worn
The coffee is sour
And
the shirt is torn
But the smile is bigger than the Atlantic sea
And it
happens to bring out the Atlantis in me
Island of wonder
Where do you
come from
Is it the way the sun hits my face
Or is it your memory which I
cannot trace
Eu vejo mais ao longe
Pessoas sem fome
Com pés
sangrando
Na vereda florida
And the church bell dongs
A remarkable
song
And I swallow the salt
As I hum along
The woman she laughs as I
pass her by
In a patchwork (dream) I left behind

^ I agree. Totally ENFP.

Btw ENFPs are rather wonderful aren't they?

I think ESFPs are actually confused for ENFPs.

Hmmm, in real life? Or in typing famous people? I see majority of actors and singers typed as ESFx. It's like the default. Pop singer? ESFx.

She seems like an idealist...NF. Like I said, her [older] songs are full of figurative language. If they aren't about her search for identity, they are about love and the places she can find them: in a person, a flower, an old man's smile.
