melinda sways with mixed results

OK, it's Tuesday night and the show is on. J-Lo's tonight's mentor, and she just appeared on screen and said she had her favorites, but didn't name names. I say she's a closet Phil Stacey fan.
Anyway, here we go.

1. Melinda Doolittle...while being mentored by J-Lo, she was told to be sexy and sultry. Which she later named as her biggest challenge, claiming, "I am so not sexy." Aww.
Song: "Sway"
Me: What else can we say about Melinda at this point? Vocally, she's always excellent. Tonight, however, I didn't see the same star quality that we've grown to expect out of her in weeks past. She came on stage looking much older than she really is, and offered a relatively stiff performance that I thought didn't have enough va-va voom to connect with the crowd. She was sexy...if you're into a cheap lounge singer with no neck.
Randy: "Another solid performance. I don't know if it was your best."
Paula: "Very, very sultry. Very smooth."
Simon: "It had to happen, Melinda. I didn't like it."
Score: 7/10

Well, Melinda is definitely NOT a "pretty girl," but she's charming and seems to have a sweet personality. That makes up for what a neck couldn't bring her.
