Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites JohnMitchell 16 #11 April 15, 2009 Quote I felt so sorry for her because she said she's never been kissed. Someone needs to go kiss her! Amazing to have never been kissed. Seeing her on stage, my honest first impression was "homely." Sorry, but that's the truth. In reality, a touch of a makeover would do wonders for her aspirations, both on the stage and in personal life. Selling yourself is sometimes all in the packaging. There's a reason I'm on the radio, not TV. She's got a beautiful voice. I've got no musical talent, so I'm always doubly impressed by those that do.

It is a pleasure to see this GREAT singer honored in a way that equals her talents.... NEVER judge any book by its cover...surprises , from those we least expect can deliver,,, are faaar better, than the same old same old, mediocre efforts made by those who have been deemed famous, or those who reply on past accomplishments, to make up for lack of effort in the present... Thanks for the link nick. i especially liked all the pre- singing footage when the looks of "oh no what's this gonna be"??? were shown,, all the rolling of the eyes etc etc... How nice that those mean thoughts, were proven to be unjustified...in addition to an angels voice,,, the LADY also has a fun personality, and an engaging way about her... She DID make that audience Rock....!!!!!!!just as she had predicted.... jt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites hungarianchick 0 #14 April 16, 2009 When I looked at the thread title I thought some ol' lady finally had enough of Simon Cowell and done him in!Seriously, she is awesome!
