Will this woman ever sing live on the TV? It's really beginning to bug me now!

Still looks good though

Perhaps she will be forece to on the 'new look' top of the pops?

I saw her on the Royal Variety show and she mined all the way through despite having a mike attached to her head.

The problem is that she can't really sing. Most of her vocals are doubled-tracked to disguise her limitations. She is just a pretty face!

She mined? What with, a drill? Did I imagine it or did she actually stop lip synching at one point when she had to do a complex move and it was too much to keep her lips going as well.

On the new Andi Peters' TOTP btw you don't have to sing live, you can mime, but apparently that will look obvious. I wonder what Mrs Beckham will be doing on Friday? (not that I care) BBC are promoting it as must-see potential 'car crash' TV

i agree with the last 2 posts.

she is sexy girl, but thats about it. she may even be typical blondie

she aint got the vocal talents other stars have.

I thought there had always been a policy on TOPT that artists had to mime because it had the be the actual record that is played, not a live interpretation.

It's not really possibily to dance and sing well at the same time.

So how do we know who is really singing?

Performers in the theatre sing and dance live all the time. Thats no excuse.

If you are doing a two-hour concert of singing and dancing, then I suppose miming occasionally is acceptable (Jacko and Madonna do).

But for a 3 minute song, there is no excuse.

Why do we need all of the dancing anyway... it's a song with a singer... so sing.

Does Rachel write her own songs? I seem to remember her saying in an interview that Sweet Dreams was actually written about an ex of her from LA. Fantastic lyrics anyway, for that and Funky Dory, whoever wrote them.

Cathy Dennis (co-author of Kylies "cant get you out of my head") wrote it, and I think Funky Dory is a David Bowie cover.

Because most pop is just about choreography these days.

I kinda hate to slag her off in a way, cause she looks so bloody marveous, and I'd hate to see her go away because of that *lust*.

But I thought even her dancing was a bit robey tonight, I think if she's gonna mime, she should at least do a good dance routine, instead of staying routed to the spot and wave her arms around rather awkwardly, although I know shes done better perfomances in the past (maybe under the weather or something?).

I think in S club, Jo was the voice, and Rachel was the main eye candy. Shame we cant have both in the same package.

Sweet Dream My LA EX, was apparently written by Cathy Dennis as Britney's response to Justin's "Cry Me A River".

Britney turned it down, so instead if got given to Rachel.

Not too sure about her new single, though, but as long as the video is played enough on the music channels, I'll be happy!

after asked about it in an interview rach says she plans to do live performances for her next single. its meant to be a slower ballad of some sort which doesnt need any dancing

Is it actually a Bowie cover? Hunky Dory is a Bowie album and the guitar riff in the song is also from a Bowie song ('Andy Warhol' from the Hunky Dory album I think, though I'm not sure).

I don't think it's actually a Bowie song though, but I'm happy to stand corrected if anyone knows better.

No, that was Tina. She was goyjus!

Well I saw her at an event on Sunday and she mimed again. Getting bored of it now. Javine and Jamelia danced quite a bit. They were singing and joining in with the choreography but leaving the dancers to the complicated stuff so they could carry on singing.

Not bothered about Tina myself but Hannah is a little cutie!

I'd like one night no-holds-barred with all of them. Apart from Jo of course. She's a plumber.

In VH-1's 100 sexiest artists the S Club girls collectively were around 7th I think.

There was not an ugly girl amongst them -

And there was one more talented than Rachel; her name I forget.
