Incase you don't know, she's the blonde girl from The Saturdays. I saw on youtube she auditioned for X Factor twice and she just cannot sing at all!

I find it crazy how she's in a band and classed as a singer when she just cannot sing haha!

I remember seeing that when it was broadcast. It was shown again in an interview once she was in The Saturdays. She definately has one of if not the weakest voice in the group.

That's why her voice is always autotuned (allegedly).

I agree she's the weakest singer, but she is much better than she was when the group started to take off. I love her personality though. Mollie's the 'token blonde' one, the sweet, ditzy, fun, instantly loveable one.

I don't know why Frankie is lauded around as the biggest star in the group and hailed as the next Cheryl Cole when Mollie is in the wings. She could be a big TV personality IMO. (My faves are Una and Rochelle though). Plus Mollie dates David Gandy... she knows how to pick 'em.

WTF - Sharon Osbourne "I think you're dressed totally inappropriately!"

She was wearing a top (revealing nothing) and a white pair of shorts.

That woman needs a good slap!!

Edit: Here's the link of the one I'm referring to:

I thought the same when I saw it.

She has the weakest voice but she has the 'something'.

My eyes are always drawn to her or Rochelle in performances and pictures. Frankie was made to be the break-out one but she's just not. Molly has improved tonnes since they started.

She's got a very weak and thin voice, but she has her own "role" in the band.

Vanessa and Rochelle - vocalists
Una - the "odd one out"(Irish, plays guitar, oldest, pregant, unique tone)
Frankie - the "popular one"
Mollie - "the personality"

Saying that, Mollie has got alot better recently. Check a live performance of 'Notorious' from last year, for example.

I would say Una is "the personality" while Mollie is just the token blonde.

She's decent-ish on their ballads on their new album - listen to Wish I Didn't Know and Last Call, they performed those on tour too. She's nothing amazing, but she's not terrible or as bad as she used to be.

How is that line easy to sing? It's the hardest line on the song to sing properly because of the range and delivery.

She does well on Get Ready Get Set as well...

I think Mollie has that "star quality" that people are always going on about.

she is the most likeable person in the music business. Anyone who watched The Saturdays 24/7 just falls in love with her. She is the star!!

Also I wouldn't say she's the worst vocalist in the bad. None of them are bad, but Frankie is the weakest.

See the All Fired Up tour and Mollie sounded AMAZING!!!! especially on Wish I Didn't Know.

Such a shame there's a thread on here about her which is so negative, cos Mollie is the most positive person ever, and has such a great talent. She has improved sooo much in the bad since the start.

And to the people saying Una plays guitar - so does Mollie!!

Mollie playing guitar and sounding great - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1N5gDdgCNk

I find her the most irritating and unlikeable of the band.

The X Factor auditions show how incredibly lucky she is to be in the band, surely there were more suitable and deserving people who tried out for the band.

She's definitely the weakest link AFAIC.

She seems a nice person and would be great fun to have around but I do agree she has the weakest voice in the group. I think Rochelle, Vanessa and Una are the strongest singers and Frankie and Mollie seem rather weak to me.

I just googled her (I didn't know who she was and I came to this thread out of curiousity) and she is attractive enough but nothing special. Just your bog standard boring pretty blonde :yawn:

Mollie has improved a lot since the band first started, she's still the weakest singer but she has gotten better.

I never knew she'd auditioned for TXF twice before. She's an okay singer, and in The Saturdays she just fades into the background really because it's mostly Vanessa, Una and Rochelle that take the lead vocals.

To be fair she seems to have a bigger part on this album, and Work was a lot of her singing.

Mollie is hot too, my fave 2 Mollie and Una
