Too much speed....
When Seacrest calls her name, she bolts to the stage, leaving her BFFs in the dust. Sings a Michael Jackson song I never heard of. "I Wanna Be There." It's okay.
Jlo : I really enjoyed that. You made me smile. You really have something. An innate talent.
Harry : There's been a high, high bar set so far. I believe you may have nudged that bar up a little bit higher.
Keith : This Motown catalog is like the luckiest thing for everyone, for you , for us.
She might want to dial down the happy. Looks like she's rubbing it in a little.
Remember when we had lighters?
This would (”I’ll be there”) would be a lighter sway song...
Cute blondie is OK with the MJ song.
Country girl showing her range
Forget about the execution, but listen to the notes you are singing ... great advise.
I think she did a goof job.
The point about not doing runs that don’t fit her was on point.
She instead decided to just hit the notes — others should learn from her.
Yes! I had an orange Bic!
To everyone's surprise--including herself--Blonde Maddie is called to the stage. She sings "I'll Be There".
Harry : You deserve to be here. (hair splits her technique)
Keith : Good choice for you. There's some runs in that song that you didn't do, and you shouldn't.
Jlo : Really difficult song to sing, but still did a really good job.
Maddie confesses this is her first time singing Motown ever. The hell you say.
Forget about the execution, but listen to the notes you are singing ... great advise.
You could see from her post feedback exit from the stage she really took that to heart.
r/goof/good/
Agree. I think she sounded good, not great but enjoyable to listen too.
Also think matching Jackson’s emotional delivery in that song would be tough for even a seasoned pro
I know, it was on before I could change the channel. They should rename it to "That Screaming Woman".
I think she did a goof job.
I pad auto spell at it again... Obviously meant good not goof :):)
They should give her advise on paying her bills ...
Aretha looks like she could use some stern foundation wear.
NOOOOOOOO Strange teeth got through.
“That was great!” (whispers) “Who was that old black lady?”
Isn’t Aretha amazing?
Her nod to Ella was really cool.
I put Yellow teeth and Big Adam in the same class this year. Kind of freaky with odd quirks that won’t last long.
