Where are the rest of the performances?
Chris Brown can keep performing that song but it’s never going to catch on. He needs to release something else less generic and cliched.
All justin does is copy Adam Lambert
carrie underwood still has the best voice & blows everyone away with her liver performances they are always great
Katy Perry, contemporary class act.
Stevie Wonder/Alicia Keys, timeless class act.
Chris needs to stop dancing for once on these “live” shows..and sing something “live” instead of lipsyncing.
Linkin park was by far the best and the only one not lipsing and has true talent
LOVED Kelly Clarkson’s beautiful performance. Love the stage setting and her incredible and emotive voice. She looked beautiful as well.
Lp4life, loved Linkin park, but it’s untrue that they were the only ones not lipsinging. Kelly Clarkson sang 100% live, I believe Carrie Underwood did as well.
