Is Gwen Stafani the most respected female artist in popular music?

I was thinking about it today, and I don't know if there is any other female who has the same respect as her, especially among men. Most guys think she is real hot, but she's not in a fake way like Britney Spears, and then she makes music that people like and respect more then just pop music.

I tried to word the title as precise as I could, because I know some smart ass would come in and get pissed at everybody because there is a cello player somewhere that we should respect more. Anyway, do you agree, if now who is more respected?
