It’s the mark of a relatively untutored vocalist, which is why you’ll see all manner of pretty pop singers doing it but never someone who’s operatically trained.

Sound moves in a sine wave and a big part of vocal training is getting that wave ‘Forward’ of your face, otherwise it sits just in front of your teeth, which is why pop singers have a tendency to eat the microphone once they realize that’s where their most consistent sound is.
