I turned on the show late and first thing I saw was lipsynching and this woman flopping around like a dying barracuda on the damn stage. I can't. The way I just hollered...

I don't understand why she just didn't do a regular performance. She's been singing it live for months and doing a great job. She looked like a damn fool.

Welp. She can do this all she wants. But that performance was unnecessarily lipped.

Finally. It's a pretty basic (cheap) video. Clip of a new song at the end of the video. BET Awards performance was good although not fully live interestingly enough. Budget bound.

She can be so damn extra at times... she looked and acted like a clown. For a moment I thought that wig was gonna fall off her head.

Just caught the performance this morning. DYIIINGGGGG. When she started convulsing, I about lost it.
If she was singing live, the theatrics may have paid off. But the fact that she was lipping and acting out a damn telenovela onstage just seemed so... disingenuous and fake as hell. Which, let's be honest, is kinda her brand.

She's so extra, it's annoying. Everything she puts out, I wish Toni would sing instead.

...and yet, this woman has legit stans. Martians, Aliens, WTF she wants to call them. I cannot understand it. She has ZERO originality, acts like a damn clown and performs like one, just spouts a bunch of meaningless catchphrases that only get used on Pulse. I will stand behind Calling All Lovers as an album but she continues to turn me off.

I'm sorry; I don't speak GIF. What is this supposed to mean?
Edit: Oh, it's in reference to Tamar and how she seemingly forgot she had two working legs during her performance. Never mind!

The new song at the end of the video sounds like "I'd Rather Go Blind".

lip sync or not, she BROUGHT it. it was the most over the top diva performance I've seen in a long time and it paid off. Regardless of the lip sync, the girl can sing. I was actually a big fan of hers when she released her debut but kind of fell off when she came back only Bc of some of the material she was singing, not her voice. This reminded me of why I love her voice so much. I say hats off - there are a million other celebrities who lipsync and can't pull this kind of energy off.

Her performance was a hot ass mess to me and was a total disservice to the song itself because you couldn't even get into it. It matches her unnecessarily over the top personality though (as does that terrible acting in the video). Just not sure why she wouldn't deliver a LIVE vocal in front of her peers especially since she prides herself so much on being an authentic singer.
Still looking forward to her album. I enjoyed her last two immensely.

You get a rather lengthy piece of "Rather Go Blind" starting at 7:18

Wendy is so extra with the crying lmao
Vocals for days though! I can't wait for the album. Hope they keep the production sparse like that.

At the end of the day, she delivers vocally, so I can only come for her persona and live performances but, if the new album is anywhere as quality as CAL, I will be purchasing.
