No that was deliberate. Pretend to be nervous, to get people on your side & appear humble & disarm those who might have thought you too cocky. Then come back on, miraculously recover, sing better & bask in all the praise. Or to spell it out for those who have had the wool pulled over their eyes F A L S E M O D E S T Y
I thought she was crap when she auditioned, crap in her first performance tonight and crap in her repeat performance..... but because she's a child people aren't allowed to say so
She was perpetually flat and didn't understand what she was singing really (but then she is ten) - even so, not good enough. She'll make the 3 cos of the waterworks and either way I can see her through. Where no doubt she will crack again.
I never liked her and I haven't changed my mind tonight. Bet she does get the sympathy vote though. There's just something very precocious about that child.
