asia'h wants to dance

And here we go.

First up? Asia'h Epperson, whose most embarrassing moment involves falling down while roller skating when she was an extra on a movie.

Song: "I Wanna Dance with Somebody"

Me: It's not a total train wreck, but my biggest problem with Asia'h is that she seems to consistently think she's better than she really is. This performance is a perfect case study. She doesn't have Whitney's vocal range when it comes to high notes, and even with Asia'h somewhat engaging stage presence, the performance ends up coming off simply as a cheap Whitney knockoff. No originality, and nothing spectacular vocally, either.

Randy: "That was hot."

Paula: "You nailed it."

Simon: "I'm not quite so enthusiastic...at best it was second-rate Whitney Houston."

Yeah, doesnt she know that no matter what she sounds like, if she does a diva song simon's not going to like it???

I'm not enthusiastic either. She can NOT belt out those notes. Bad song choice and worse outfit choice.

Whatever y'all I love Asiah or however her name is spelt. She's the best on this show and no one is giving her the credit that she's due. Word.

WHAT was up with those pants? They made her look so awkward.. all those buttons. I was too distracted to listen to what was going on with the big notes, so i can't even comment on that. Sorry that you can't be privy to my expert evaluation
