Props to her for putting herself up for it because she really didn't need to, but it shows just why she mimes so much...

Well, it's listenable I guess.

Her Parachute performance is just really really flat

I liked the "might get them out later" bit in Fireflies. It was pretty bad though.

Damn, she really is quite shit.


And why are her eyes closed throughout the entire thing? Did she wake up with sticky eyes or something?!

When I listened to it this morning, I thought I'd never heard anyone sing in Geordie before

I've only heard the 'Fireflies' performance and that was dire. She really has no concept of tone or control when it comes to her voice.

Holy Crap! She'd never make it past the X Factor first auditions.

Not sure if this is suposed to be a reason or an excuse.

Either way it shows a total lack of professionalism and respect to her fans.

She looked actually terrified during the whole performance. If she didn't have her backing singers, I reckon she wouldnt have done it.

she always looks scared when performing, as if she is being put up to it by someone!

Well, she is.

Its one thing to make a decent pop album in a recording studio, espcially with all the tweaks and tuning that can be done. But its another thing to sing live stripped down bare.

Not suprising. Prehaps she shoudl stick to miming, I have no problems with miming anway. The last time I heard her sing live on the x-factor it was dire. But she is not putting herself out there as a great singer. I think people should just let her mime if she wants to.

It's amazing how someone as blatantly untalented as her who can barely sing could become so successful. The general public really does enjoy absolute rubbish. She really is a joke

Woah, that was utter crap!

She's just a pretty face. All about the image. Extremely overrated.

Don't get the criticism of Fireflies, she sounds lovely!

Parachute was addmitedly just average, it doesn't translate well live.
