Bublé CROONS about Carrie
Quote:
With the two Christmas specials, NBC is continuing its song-and-dance routine this month. “The Sound of Music Live,” starring Carrie Underwood, delivered the network its top Thursday since 2009′s “ER” finale. More than 18 million people tuned in, and the social media buzz felt even larger.
While Buble didn’t see the “Sound of Music Live,” he says that it was a “great decision” for Underwood — and not a safe one. “I just thought, ‘Wow, this girl has pretty big balls,” he told TheWrap.
And Buble doesn’t get the backlash — at all: ”It’s really easy to critique, it’s really easy to destroy — it’s hard to create,” he said.
If Buble’s holiday special performs closer to the monster-hit “Sound of Music Live” than his new NBC-colleague’s modestly rated “Kelly Clarkson’s Cautionary Christmas Tale,” which earned a 1.4 rating in the demo and 5.3 million viewers, the network will be over the moon. But that is both a tall order and an unlikely outcome.
