"affectedly dainty or refined"

Really the equivelant of "twee" for male singers would be something more like "hearty" - "affectedly rough or unrefined" - the common factor being that of being over affected and phony.

I can think of a good few male singers who'd qualify for that - most of us from time to time, actually.
