I just realized that I deleted Serendipity and my rates
Dancehall:
Taylor, 8/10
This what she does, right? It's cute and enjoyable and all around good.
Rihanna 9/10
This is exactly what i wanted from her this challenge. AOL editing makes this **** perfect. Slay me, icon.
Little Mix 10/10
They all slay vocally. This is about as stripped as it gets and it's all around impressive.
Girls Aloud 7/10
Lovely, but some parts aren't easy on the ears. A BIT of a cluter**** at points. A hard song to cover since I have the original in mind, but still good!
Beyonce 9.5/10
I wanted 1+1 Live from an American Idol Dressing Room, but lbr, it's Beyonce. Titan her voice is always great.
Christina 10/10
Slay me, Skinny Legend. In this mini video player it looks like she's wearing a meat dress.
Britney 6/10
It's cute but it just sounds unrefined. It's weird since it's live and all but this just sounds like an early demo of a song.
Shakira 8/10
It's a bit one note and doesn't go anywhere for me. Where it stays at is a good place however and very much what this challenge is about though. Just underwhelmed me though.
Lady Gaga 8.75/10
This video is so important to Gaga. These Pokerface videos made Gaga stand out early on. These performances had impact that made people react to Gaga differently and give her a chance and recognize her as a talented, creative force. It allowed her to show her range and yada yada, just great. I will say that I enjoy the
Paparazzi video video from the same day a lot more though.
Katy Perry 8/10
This is so smooth and interesting for this song. An interesting rendition. Lemme snap along.
Kylie 9/10
I love the fragility in this. It feels so soft and gentle like a flower. Vulnerable. I feel like drifting down a slow river to this on a makeshift wooden raft.

Rihanna
7/10: The beginning was really good and there were parts throughout the performance where Rihanna had really nice vocals. But where you lost points with me was the fact that Rihanna basically let the backup singers sing the chorus for her on top of the fact that this was a pretty loud performance for something that is supposed to be more acoustic. I think if the song had been performed quieter, it could've made the song more haunting.
Taylor Swift
10/10: Even though this isn't as acoustic as it should have been, it's more cohesive than Rihanna was. It actually worked well with Taylor's vocals, which were surprisingly flawless here. You really redeemed yourself this round with me so well done.
Little Mix
10/10: My favorite from Team Cheryl this round. Little Mix's live vocals slay so much here. Absolutely flawless and an amazing choice for this round. Well done
Girls Aloud
9/10: They actually sound really great here. The girl that did the adlibs was really cool and all their vocals sounded great. It was slightly boring though which is why you get a 9 from me.
Beyonce
10/10: Ok, You represented yourself well this round without my help. Beyoncé's vocals were so beautiful and flawless here so I can see why you didn't even need to go to me for advice. But in the future you need to at least check with me to make sure you aren't screwing up. The main reason I did so well with Miley is because I worked with MWB every challenge to make sure I got it right. You did well this round, but if you don't start actually communicating with me, it might bite you in the back.
Christina
10/10: Very proud of our choice this round. Christina's vocals were flawless all around.
Britney Spears
8/10: I get that Britney doesn't have a lot of live performances, but this surprisingly was really good for the most part. Not perfect, but really nice.
Shakira
10/10 - What can I say? Shakira sounded great on this performance.
GaGa
10/10 - This is so entertaining
Brilliant choice this round!
Katy
810 - You finally delivered something good. It wasn't completely acoustic sounding, but Katy slayed overall. Your best entry yet.
Kylie Minogue
4/10
This is ok. Kylie's voice sounds ok but it really doesn't standout with everything else
