Channel 10 tried to make it work, let alone the annoying promo that was everywhere.....but sadly it just was not a good show. It was a copy of 'so you think you can dance'

Even though I went off her a little during the love shows i'm surprised her music tanked to badly here.
:rolleyes:
her tv career certainly doesn't look too great.
i know that she's probably looking for the exposure, but i think the best thing for kelly to do would be to stick to music and maybe reassess the type of music she wants to make. she has a good voice, but that sort of 'underground' dance/r&b style of her last album didn't do her any favours, and as a result the album didn't really make a splash, did it?...part of it's who she works with. she had 2 great big smash hits with guetta. both were dance/pop tracks with big vocals.
TBF that was a re-release
I think outside the states, the combination of Kelly and David really works, I'm referring to Commander of course and WLTO.
In the states, the combination of Kelly and Lil Wayne also works., I'm obviously referring to Motivation, which stayed #1 for 7 and a half weeks, and most recently ICE (released bout 2 days ago) currently sitting at #2 on r&b/soul chart
1 Thing Kelly Rowland lacks.. Promotion
Promotion is Key! She doesn't perform enough in the states and outside! She's not a household bane like Beyonce that could still sell albums while chilling at home, pregnant and not performing.
Promo! Promo! Promo! I emphasize
I agree, I think that is something her and her management need to look at.
well that's what EVERY artist needs if they're ever going to reach that household status. she's clearly being trying to get more exposure through getting various tv gigs, but that's quite clearly not working...i liked kelly on the x factor and thought she was fun, gave good criticisms and had great chemistry with gary. but the majority of people turned on her and the hate she got in the press etc was a little shocking (and partly down to the fact that they're so desperate to build up tulisa as their "new cheryl").
i do agree though that how well your music does is down to the market it's plugged to. her last album may have done well in the r&b scene in america, but it did nothing over here, where she had full exposure on x factor (the biggest show on television) AND a prime slot at the children in need concert which was also a massive ratings winner. both performances got panned, when they each (even separately) should have easily secured her a good solid hit and album sales.
i just don't think that she's been making good career decisions recently....
Absolutely agree with you., but one good decision she made lately, was to step away from Matthew Knowles. He sat her up in the shadow of Beyonce. If she was maganed by someone else from the start, she probs would have been a much bigger star by now
yeah - other than dilemma and stole, which both must have been ~10 years ago, it's only since she ditched matthew that we've actually started to hear about her in her own right.
on the other hand, if not for matthew then destiny's child wouldn't have happened....or at least if she wasn't so close to the knowles. they had no problem replacing the other members...
i don't think she would have had such a level of success as what she had as part of DC if not for the knowles, so you can't really hate on them for holding her back, as they gave her a huge platform. BUT, she should have gone with different solo management much sooner than what she did - especially once she realised that matthew was quite obviously 100% invested in making beyonce a star.
i think she'll always be in beyonce's shadow now.
Well, no surprise there then. Could not stand the woman when she was on X Factor, she was so up herself.
I think it's the fact that Kelly didn't even pretend to be interested in the slightest towards the end that made people turn on her, as opposed to anything Tulisa did. Not that that will stop anyone blaming her, of course.
