To think Katherine Jenkins just ruined a perfectly good song?

On the Variety show. She covered a song by evanescence and just butchered it! It supposed to be a rock song not an Oprah wreck!

it made me turn over

Arsed · 16/12/2009 20:39

It was horrid.

BitOfFunderthemistletoe · 16/12/2009 20:41

Not as bad as Michael Bubblehead.

nickytwotimes · 16/12/2009 20:41

Didn't see/hear it, but I can well believe it.
Her singing is shite.

NellyNoKnicks · 16/12/2009 20:41

YANBU it was so uncomfortable to watch.

squeaver · 16/12/2009 20:41

I turned TV on and thought "what gothic horror nightmare is this I've wandered into??"

AnyFuckerForAMincePie · 16/12/2009 20:42

not a bad voice, but awful dancing from the Booble

wearthefoxhat · 16/12/2009 20:42

She ruins most songs she sings, so why should this one be any different?

WillieWalsh · 16/12/2009 20:42

i love MB

btw what do you mean oprah?

ParkBench · 16/12/2009 20:44

Opera i assume...

I love MB and i'm not really into that sort of stuff. KJ is truly awful!

Meant to say opera ]

Sorry she scrambled my brains with her high pitched warbling!

TheFoosa · 16/12/2009 21:17

she is dreadful and very unlikeable for reasons I cannot articulate

MB is luverly, I will forgive him anything

CybilServant · 16/12/2009 21:19

Well I don't like the song she sang, but she did murder it. That sort of rock song just doesn't go with falsetto vibrato.

AND No close ups of the divine Ashley Banjo. As usual all their flips and stuff weere filmed from about 3/4 of a mile away. Ds stayed up to watch and was not impresed

ErikaMaye · 16/12/2009 21:20

She ruins every song she does... Plus after the dreadful dress she wore at the Rememberence Service a few years back, I dislike her on principle.

deaddei · 16/12/2009 21:21

Michael Bubblehead!!!
Love what he sang but hate his uptempo 2just haven't met you yet" I keep hearing on the radio.
KJ was awful- shocking. Too much makeup as always.

hohoholepew · 16/12/2009 21:22

Ohhhh I love michael bubble, but i was watching max be a shit in waterloo road.

CybilServant · 16/12/2009 21:23

MB looked nice. He's lost some puppy fat from his face.

AnyFuckerForAMincePie · 16/12/2009 21:24

shock of the night

LadyGaga can sing!

she is very strange-looking though, even discounting the weird get-up

Heated · 16/12/2009 21:25

Didn't see it but am definitely not a fan. Was on another thread tonight discussing Charlotte Church and mentioned KJ then. She can hold a tune but has no depth or richness to her voice. There are just so many others who are better.

squeaver · 16/12/2009 21:25

I thought Diversity were a bit crap actually.

Loved Peter Kay on Gaga "you should see the size of her mouth organ"

catastrojb · 16/12/2009 21:26

yep, i thought kj was rubbish. love lady gaga though - wonderfully random! almost as good as the bath/loo set-up...

ErikaMaye · 16/12/2009 21:27

Mum was watching with me, and thought Lady Gaga was a mick-take of Elton John

What about the puppet master?

JjandtheBean · 16/12/2009 21:28

so glad im not alone YANBU!

AnyFuckerForAMincePie · 16/12/2009 21:29

yeah, diversity were strangely mediocre

no pizzazz at all

and ineffective contrast with the red costumes and red wall behind them, you didn't get the full effect of the dance moves

ParkBench · 16/12/2009 21:30

I put on another thread that i'm still PMSL at the stuff in the puppet mask Erika
