Uh-oh. Is she planning on lipping? haha Should be interesting to see how well she does, especially since the show is centered around vocals.

just heard she will be on AI on May 13th.
I personally can't stand her and her music but kudos to her label, they are really doing a great job with her better than any other new artist. Well thought out promo and single releases. Even though TOY underperformed they didn't just give up and moved on to the next album but are really getting behind WUIV and gearing up the promo to revive her momentum.

It may not be that bad: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LhieKbXbX_MShe's really not as god-awful most the time as people here make her out to be, idt. She has a fun tone and a great sense of how to play around with the melody. I love that her live performances are never the same melodically: she always does something different than the recorded version. But she also gets into her performances, especially IKAG and HNC, which sometimes throws her off vocally.

Miley isn't exactly the world's greatest singer, but she's MUCH better than Katy.

I've seen Katy live twice. The one time, she was pretty good, the other she was god-awful. So I think it kind of depends on the day.

And we all would have been a lot better off if the studio version of RR would have just played and Flo Rida rap a little over it. I thought he might have a heart attack by the end, he was breathing so hard.

Not to mention that if it were lipped the amount of dancing and the guest rapper would distract from that fact. Katy doesn't have either one of those to color up her performance if she were to lip. Either way I'm not sure what your point is. lol

i actually LOVE katy live. for this reason: She has a fun tone and a great sense of how to play around with the melody. I love that her live performances are never the same melodically: she always does something different than the recorded version.

It's not like guests are held to the same standards anyway. Kanye and Flo Rida were both on and they wouldn't even have a chance to audition. Apples and oranges.

People must just hate Miley in general because her performance on Idol tonight was good. I'm not proclaiming she's the greatest singer but the girl doesn't sound much different from how she does on her recordings. Definitely not as bad as people are making her out to be.

I'll give her this, her performance tonight was THE best I've ever heard her sound live, period. But one decent performance doesn't make up for hundreds of horrendous ones, and she was still just OK.

Did you watch her AOL Sessions performances? I am 100% sure you couldn't name "hundreds" of horrendous performances given by Miley. I think people just take a few bad performances and hold on to that forever. Miley has proven herself in more than one performance, people need to cut her some slack. But back to Katy I have to say she hasn't proven to me that she has the ability to be a good live vocalist. I have yet to hear a performance that was as good or better than her studio versions. Hopefully she still has something up her sleeve though and will surprise me.

The sound of Miley's voice (speaking or singing) is like nails on a chalk board. It literally makes me cringe a little. That's just me, though. Not speaking for everyone.
Katy is probably like that for a lot of people too. She is extremely limited vocally but I like the sound of her voice and mainly the personality of it. If it wasn't for the latter, I don't think I could listen to her either.
As for this song, it's a grower more than anything. The video looks like it has potential to be really fantastic.

Listen to the AOL sessions or some of Miley's acoustic performanes when its just her and a guitar. Miley can sing. Shes had some bad performances but shes typically pretty good and has come a long way vocally. If someone told me two years ago Miley could sound better live then on the CD I wouldn't believe them but now more often then not she is better live then on the CD. People hold a handleful of bad performances against her when there are so many good ones and I agree with WILL. Katy's fine on the CD but I've never heard her perform as good as she is on the CD.

Yeah, that's where I think a lot of people stand. If you don't like her voice in general you're not going to like her live vocals regardless of how well she does. Doesn't necessarily make her a bad singer, just not everyone's cup of tea. It's not her limited vocals that bother me, at all. There are plenty of singers that I love who don't possess a 5 octave voice. I just haven't seen any of her music translate into a really good live performance yet and that is what keeps me from labeling her a good/great live vocalist. Agreed.

People don't understand that just because you don't like the sound of a persons voice doesn't mean they are a bad singer. theres a difference between not being able to sing and not liking someones tone. whens the video for Waking Up in Vegas come out? I always like Katy's music videos. they're fun

People just decided to say that Katy sings bad live so now she will always get that review.

Am I the only one that thinks Katy is pretty good live? I find her vocals really playful.

I saw Katy live on Tuesday. She is pretty good live. She's obviously not a great vocalist but she sings in tune, hits the same notes she hits on the album and bring endless energy to the stage. Katy knows how work a crowd too. I'll post video after my bf uploads them. We got some good footage of her performing above us on a speaker.

Katy is not that bad live. And on idol, it can't gets worst than what Flo Rida did, Lady GaGa's vocals or even Miley last night. No problem on that side.
Btw, how's the song doing?
