I know it’s the latest that Gwynith Paltrow is now a singer.

Like you said, she sings okay. But I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that I sing as well as Paltrow and I’m hardly Oscar show, not to mention GLEE I think she’s on...material.

Now I’m not a bad singer, I’m an alto, as is Paltrow, and within a range of three to four notes I sound pretty good.

Any of the top fifty finalists on American Idol sing better than Paltrow now all of a sudden she’s the new musical star? She wouldn’t make the first cut in American Idol.

I’m just sayin’. and like someone noted upthread, she needs to eat a hamburger or two.

Remember the post-apocalyptic Family Guy where randy newman just kept describing what everyone is doing?

It was something like

“Lois gets up
Now she sits down
She thinks about it
Then she gets up
But then she changes her mind...”

Hah! My daughter was a big fan of Social Network and she thought The Kings Speech was ‘twee’

I’ll put all of them on my Netflix list.

They are seriously running out of time. I think a bunch of people will get fired. The stage manager is not keeping things moving and the producer wrote a real stinker of a show. Obama and Orca ruined it too. Just when you think we get the night off - extreme closeups of O & O. And, after Orca is when the political rant happened.

G. Paltrow sang okay

Ick... I'm sorry, FRiend. I thought she was truly awful. Off key for starters...

Paltrow is one of the most overrated "stars" in Hollywood. Just my humble opinion...

The whole Glee thing was an HEAVY auto-tune. She was horrible!

Listen to his classic 60s and 70s albums. He’s a brilliant songwriter. He’s just been slumming in recent years.

Yeah, I’m a soprano and I sing better than her. She was located in a famous family. It’s location, location, location.
