She was WAY off key on her Blondie song the other night, it was cringy.
I think it is "Zah-EE-rah," and Brooke is just overdoing it on the Spanish accent. "Z" in Spanish is pronounced like "S" and R's are always rolled... so when us Americans try to pronounce it, it can come out sounding more like a "D" than a rolled "R."
