Not saying this woman can't sing, but she gave it away for me that she's lip synching. It's her voice, but not at that very moment lol.

I don't blame the directors of this ceremony either. Why risk having something happen with the voice talents at the opening ceremony? It's safer to have them pre-recorded. You never know.

Yeah, I think they said that the full version will air tomorrow sometime. Personally, I won't be tuning in for it. I thought the remake was... AWFUL.

I must of missed something. What are you guys talking about?

Holy cow, that's a head of hair! Aiee.

Is that Canadian "wind blown" hair?

 

[Illuminations_Rocks]

the torch probably weighs more than she does. She'd tip over.

*moment of silence on this thread as well*

 

[OK!]

I might be alone in this, but I thought for a split second when they showed her from the back, walking onto the stage, that it might be a drag queen. That hair was ridiculous.

Current stars didn't steal the term 'Diva' from opera for nothing!

 

[StephyDee]

Can you imagine if Jim Carrey ran the torch in? Don't ask me why I thought of that, it just happened.

 

[drag n' fly]

OOOH lala

 

[lillygator]

can't stand KD Lang....

 

[OK!]

The remake of "We Are the World" to benefit Haiti. They showed what I guess was a "preview" version of it at the beginning of the OC coverage and it was horrendous. Just terrible.

as the song, yes I feel it had it's place, but geez, sing it in some fashion most of the world will enjoy and relate to.
