I don't see why it should. It nearly reached #1 in my chart but couldn't quite squeeze past Oasis. It's real music, but I guess it depends which snob school you are a member of.

ABC AND ELO

Why are they guilty pleasures, particularly ELO who were a great 1970s band, nobody seemed ashamed to like them at the tmie. ABC's "Lexicon Of Love" album at least was also considered classic enough, the second album was very disappointing, and When Smokey Sings was a clear good stand-out track from the 3rd.
I don't know if it was the time or me, but I never really detected the musical snobbery until about 1984.

It might be the time, because until then even the boybands (the closest there was in 1983 was probably Duran Duran) had talent. Hype really overtook music post-Thriller. Most years before 1984 I liked more number ones per year than I disliked; since then, very much vice versa.
