Katy Perry performance

Thoughts? I'm neutral on her. I think Lenny Kravitz is smoking HOT.

I like her singing. I thought the fireworks were cool.

Not too impressed, but love Lenny.

Not impressed after all the hype. I liked Bruno Mars last year much better. This year looked like a Nickelodeon concert.

Sorry couldn't understand words. Like LadyGaga, she proberly is a great singer, but in order to keep the young crowd, like Gaga did, it's the performance not the singing they want. Gaga can sing like an adult. With Tony Bennett she showed her stuff, and was mature.

MEH! Happy it is easily forgettable!

I have a ton of experienced studio musicians in my extended family, while Perry's recorded music is successful, the trend of lip synching in largely viewed events just rubs me the wrong way. I'm reading some comments on FaceBook, looks like I'm not alone, lol.

No, you're not alone! Again, we agree completely about this. I, too, have had connections with professional musicians/singers/performers in the past, and most of the singers these days can't sing a note without tons of equipment behind them to make them sound half-way decent. Check out Emily West & what she's doing these days.....now SHE's got chops and doesn't need any backup at all!

And yet I've never heard of West, lol. My cousins tour with some pretty big names, and the stories of the lack of talent.....well they are shocking and I suspect they are true. Scary.

It was alright. There have been better half time shows. I remember when Paul McCartney performed and Bruno Mars. Those were great. I knew KP was going to do ""Roar"" that song is overplayed in my opinion. Liked John Legend's singing of America the Beautiful but not the National Anthem. I wish people would just sing it plain without all the embellishments.

Not crazy for it.

Emily was runner-up on AGT this year. She will have a new CD out the end of April, is on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and also has a ton of videos on YouTube. If you like good singers, I think you'll be surprised. Her back-story is a bit different as well. Check her out if you find time.

And Yes, "lack of talent" pretty much covers a number of the so-called "singers" these days. Many can't sing a note without all the electronics to make them sound better. It takes tons of equipment to produce these people. Your cousins stories are, more than likely, absolutely true!

She was also on Celebrity Apprentice a couple of years ago. Very talented.
