Katherine Jenkins Why does she attract such negative press

I have noticed that Katherine Jenkins attracts the most hated status by the press. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2310871/Margaret-Thatcher-funeral-Did-Katherine-Jenkins-far-low.html

The DM slates her for having an inappropriate low cleavage at Maggies Funeral, then in the comments some slam her for betraying the Welsh miners and others slam here for being stuck up stating;

" cant stand the woman and yes much to low for a funeral,spoke to someone once who knew her and said she is a nightmare to work with,all me me me and thinks she is royalty herself!!! "

I have to say I have to agree with those who dont really like her and the way she gets on, especially IMO shes not even a good singer but would go to the opening of an envelope and a true believer in her own publicity.

Is this justified or is she really nice?

    She butchered "Bring me to life", so yes is justified. I don't have a problem with the cleavage tho. :D

    She'll never quite live down "I definitely didn't have an affair with David Beckham. Even though none of you mentioned it, I definitely didn't. No siree, not me. I didn't even think about having an affair with David Beckham"

    Who cares what the miserable cretins on the DM website say about anything?

    She's pretty, she's rich & she's got a good voice.

    Probably because her surname is the same as Leroy's...

    Dunno but in the operatic world she is not very highly regarded. As my dad calls it, Popera.

    That's not a cleavage it's a skiffle board.

    She's not technically an opera singer...

    There seems to be a big market for popera, so why not?

    She has a medicore mezzo voice. If you want to hear a genuine mezzo, listen to Frederica von Stade.

    Why not indeed. Even better it pishes off the purists, like my old man off:D

    It's because she's Welsh. Many English people are notoriously anti-Welsh. Just look at Neil Kinnock and the way the press went after him for being Welsh, largely contributing to his election loss.

    They hate her because she's Welsh.

    She likes showing her baps off in public. She looks great and has nice puppies, but there is a time and a place for sticking them under peoples noses. A funeral is not one of those places.

    She's annoyingly perfect and we love to bring people like that down a peg or two. Her funeral outfit looks fine to me though.

    Has she ever even recorded Voi Che Sapete from Figaro, possibly the most famous mezzo aria ?

    Because she is pretty and talented and some people perceive that as a threat IMO.

    Surely that works in her favour?

    The outfit was fine, it's the horrible brassy blonde hair dye. She would look so much nicer reverting to her natural brunette hair colour.

    She is beautiful and has enough talent to be a good amateur classical singer, in the same way she was a good amateur dancer on Dancing with the Stars. But she falls well short of the standard of a professional.

    I was amazed she was invited to the funeral in the first place. Saw her in the paper & just thought, 'Why is she there?'
    She could've worn something with a higher neckline & still looked good- she's not onstage!
