Who is the picture of the girl at the top with the scary lips?
'Chloe Lattanzi was awful and off-pitch singing an INXS song. She sported a pair of lips that had to be the work of some plastic surgeon that should be on AwfulPlasticSurgery.com. Belinda gives her a 9.5? Must be chums with Olivia.'
The sound on my TV must be completely off kilter. I listened to American Idol just fine but this show left me wondering what i was missing.
With the exception of the lone standout who is 'untouchable' this week, none of these kids can sing. In fact, any Idol contestant this season can perform rings around them.
There is a lack of ability and star power that makes any of these kids able to warrant a record deal. The only thing these kids possess is swagger and that is because they have a wealthy Mommy and Daddy to provide for them. It is like MTV's Super Sweet Sixteen Talent Show.
Where are Wilson Phillips when we need them?
I can't believe you call Lara Johnston forgettable! I thought she was great on the show. I thought she had the best vocal performance of the night. The song choice wasn't great! But her voice is soulful and rich. I loved the way she smiled at the end of the song. I checked out her You Tube videos and her songs on myspace and compared them to Lucy Walsh's songs. Lara is a much better singer! Give this girl a chance.
I totally agree that Lucy Walsh sang very well while most of the others were very average,if that. The producers must have realized this as the music played by the band totally overwhelmed the vocals. I don't think this was by accident as they also produce American Idol where the vocals come through great. Olivia's daughter Chloe was absolutely dreadful. Weird phrasing mixed with a strange accent and totally off-key. At only 22, she looks like a 45 year-old who has had a lot of plastic surgery. Isn't it great that no-talent offspring of famous musicians/singers get their own TV show? Welcome to the Surreal World!
Lara Johnston was definitely not 'forgettable.' She had the best vocals of the night - a true talent. Check out her videos on Youtube. She is definitely here to stay.
I can't get past those gigantic lips that look ready to burst!
lucy walsh was my favorite,
her vocals were amazing to me, as for the others chole was also good, people says she was dreadful but then again on the first song she has sung on the show she couldnt really hear herself because her ear peice came out, so i give her credit.
That's Olivia Newton John's daughter? What happened to her? She looks like she was visited Priscilla Presley's plastic surgeon....daily!
Yeah, Lucy Walsh rocked it hard.
Hammer's daughter A'keiba sings very well, but she seriously needs to drop some pounds. She's too young to have already let her weight get THAT out of hand. What in the hell is gonna happen when she's in her 30's and 40's. I see a 400 lb woman somewhere down the road.
Also, leggings on an overweight pear shaped woman...a BIG No No!
She sounded beautiful tonight. Hope she gets some help with the weight.
Lil B Sure was AWFUL!!!! OMG! He WRECKED that song!!! I was cringing all the way through it. It sounded like nails on a chalkboard!
If you've ever heard Maxwell's version, you know it takes a truly high voice to hit those notes. Don't know what Al B was thinking recommending that song for his kid. Bad, BAD choice! He should get voted off for that performance.
Chloe's plastic surgery makes her look like a bad adult movie actress. She was dressed like one as well. She was awful! She's a drama queen and should have been bounced. I guess the sympathy votes came rollin' in.
Eddie Money's daughter did a better job than Chloe and should have stayed on.
Hammer's daughter did a good job on R.e.s.p.e.c.t.
The guys, with one exception, are all run of the mill. Nothing special and I haven't heard any power in their voices. Nasal, falsetto singing all from the head and not the chest. You can sing falsetto and have power as well. Just not in this bunch.
Crosby Loggins is average at best.
I like Lucy Walsh. She's the best out of the female singers. Still lacks the stage presence.
So far the only one who has stood out is Jesse Blaze Schneider. No one else has the stage presence he has. He did very well on Rock n' Roll and nailed Rebel Yell. Belinda Carlisle hasn't got a clue. I can't wait until next week. Hopefuly Jesse comes out and shows them 'Jesse'.
I agree that Jesse Schneider is the only one with true star quality. He definitely got the best of both his parents' gene pool. Cute as a button, and yeah, my man is SEXY!
Belinda Carlisle has the most erratic, clueless voting of all the judges. Did she have one face peel too many? Her face looks hella weird.
Crosby Loggins is a FINE young man. But yeah, a bit boring. He probably should have taken his shirt off! Would've added some spark!
Jesse will be the one to win it if these judges all together have at least half a brain.
This show is horrible. I told TIVO not to record it anymore.
Dee Snider's kid is SUPER ANNOYING and since neither Bobby Brown or Al B. Sure could sing, why should we expect their kids to be able to do any better?
Hammer's kid has a decent voice - but her weight is holding her back from any star status - SORRY, but it's true.
I want to root for Crosby just because he's so hot and I love, love Kenny Loggins, but he is soooo boring.
Love Chloe. I dunno, just something about her.
The rest are forgettable.
I love Lucy she is sooo pretty and I think she has that star status! She sings very well to but I it needs some work.
Landon Brown is soo sexy and he as a nice voice I dont understand why the judges are so hard on him!
A'keiba has an amazing voice. To bad she left last week. She could have been a huge star. (Also who cares is she is a little heavy?? Not me. I think she is very pretty and it doesnt even matter as long as she can sing) =] (ELIMINATED)
Chloe is a little odd but I like her. She needs a lot of voice lessons!! Something about her is completely amazing, though!
Laura! I think she has the best voice of all plus she is b-e-a-utiful, but she needs to spice things up a bit. She needs to be memorable.
Jesse Snider is so hot and he is a total rocker. I mean thats what this shows about right? (Rock The Cradle) =] Nothing bad to say about him.
Jesse Money seemed cool and I liked her a lot but after hearing about her huge tantrum after the show when she got eliminated I just think she was immature!! (ELIMINATED)
Lil B. Sure. I dont really like him that much. He has an Ok voice and an Ok look but nothing special.
Crosby is a good singer and he is also very good looking, but just like a lot of the others his voice and stage presence need work.
I think thats everyone! Well yep thats my opinion of everyone.
OMG. Why is Lil B Sure still on this show???? A'Keiba got voted off, but his 'cat in heat vocals' ass is still on there? That's just crazy! HE CAN NOT SING!!! Is the voting public deaf?
It should have boiled down to Jesse Blaze and A'Keiba at the very last week, but now I guess THAT'S not gonna happen.
I'm pulling for Lattanzi. She is hella weird, but if she ever gets control of that voice, she's definitely the most interesting performer to watch. You never know what the hell she's gonna do. She's like a nut case with a good (but runaway) voice.
I'd love to see what she pulls off next. Keep Lattanzi in!!
