Rude.

YOU might not want to watch them, but plenty of other people do.

She was awful, how do these people get record deals, is everyone in TV land tone deaf? I muted the sound and just watched Jayne and Chris glide around the ice in silence!

Horrible noise. They should have played a CD.

Christine Perry (Parry... whatever) is total crap live. She was the same on SCD and I had to mute her then too.

She must have a cracking agent though

Actually, Perri's story is quite interesting. She was a waitress who used her waitressing money to record songs at night. A friend of hers was a friend of the choreographer on the US show So You Think You Can Dance and gave her the song. She used it on the programme and people started downloading it. Within 2 weeks, Perri had gone from an unknown waitress to a best-selling recording artist.

So, sure, she used a connection with someone in telly to get a platform for the song to appear but, from there on in, it was all the public liking her music. It was only after she had charted and appeared several times on daytime TV that she landed a recording contract. Which is fair enough, really. You can't criticise a record company for signing someone who's already in the charts, can you?

Me too, it was hideous!

To be fair that song nearly made the top 10 biggest selling singles of 2011 in the UK. I don't rate it much, but a lot of people obviously do.

I've heard worse, and at least she was singing live. I'd rather that than listen to One Direction mime next week.

My only gripe was the camera cutting away from T&D, but then the camera work is generally bl**dy awful anyway.

Someone mentioned on the SCD forum when Christina Perri sang on the show that the song sounded like 'Jar of Farts', which pretty much ruined any thought of me taking it seriously ever again
