Alicia Keys did well to me.

Norah Jones rocked the house! She was a little shy, but she did a great job to be a little girl. I was impressed.

Mary J. : Stop getting the holy ghost on an R&B song! You lose total control sometimes.

Tamia did well to me.

Jaheim: GET OFF YO' NEEDS FOOL! He sounded sooo funny to me. He needs to lighten his lips. They look so scary to me.

Gerald & Eddie: Y'all didn't do that well!

Seal: Those were some coochie cutters that you had on! And what was up with those silver boots?

Tina Marie: That outfit did NOT work for you.

THE BEST PART OF THE SHOW was the Gospel segment! Yolanda Adams represented! Her gear was tight too!

Why did Aretha look like she was bored the entire show?! Annnnd why did she look like a fat a** fairy goddess???? That hair piece was garbage! She just looked a HOT MESS!

OVERALL...the show was WACK! I was very disappointed in the performers. They should have picked better ones. And stop getting Gerald/Eddie Levert every year. Let's get some other people that can blow. Why couldn't Kelly Price do a tribute? She would have killed one of those songs.

I'm done!

:D

Co-signing your post 1000 times. I actually fell asleep by the time Re-Re performed, so I missed the whole pulling wig off, jewelry throwing. It was reported that they had to retape Jaheim's part b/c he didn't remember the words to the song.

Go 'head Yolanda!!!! :D :D

Tamia's voice IMO isn't that strong to do a RE-RE song. What song did she do?

Tamia sang "giving Him Something He Can Feel". While she can sing, she can't sing that song. Her voice is not made for that type of song. Too bad they couldn't get En Vogue to do a quick reunion to sing that song. :(

CTFU because this was SOO true!! I only saw Tamia's performance because I'm sure they will show it again but Aretha looked terrible.

Overall, I thought the show was ok, better than last year's.

Alicia Keys was great! She sung my favorite Aretha song!!!

Seal surprised the heck out of me!

Norah Jones: looked so scared, but she pulled it off beautifully.

Gerald Levert: good, but I wasn't feeling Eddie's performance.

Chaka Khan was ok.

Mary J. Blige: what else would you expect from Mary?

Jaheim: BORING!!!

Teena Marie: nice to see her again after all these years

Tamia: was a little off, but she was alright

The gospel segment was DA BOMB!!!

The Isleys: great performance!

Jamie Foxx is a fool!!!:rolleyes:

I flipped between the WOF and basketball, so I didn't see her pull off the weave, but I was like :eek: when I didn't see the hair!

I was kind of disappointed that Ruben couldn't make it.:( He was supposed to be there, but Tamia stood in for him.

Yep, I'm serious. It was reported on the Doug Banks morning show. Gerald Levert was on the radio the other day and told Doug and Dee Dee about the show's taping and Jaheim. Gerald said that he was laughing at Jaheim b/c he forgot the words. When the show was over and the audience was about to get ready to leave, they were told to sit back down b/c they had to re-do Jaheim's portion of the show. :eek: :eek:

I forgot all about those boots. they were funny as all get up.

Why did Aretha look like she was bored the entire show?!
You thought that too?!!

Can someone tell me who the guy was that was singing with Yolanda Adams. As I stated before I was on the phone for all of the show, so I missed who he was.

I wasnt feeling Jaheim, but he looks weird to me anyways. Was his mike turned down or something?

I liked Gerald and Eddie, but Eddie needs to let those locks go.

Everyone else was cool.

Donnie Simpson is on a radio station here in DC, always taking a vacation and telling us where he's been and who he knows.. :rolleyes: The station paid him a NICE bit of change (reportedly 6 or 7 figures a year)

I was NOT feeling Aretha's dress at ALL. She needs to work on her arms if she's going to wear something sleeveless. ew..

And she did look bored...through out the whole thing.
