Paula Abdul's Super Bowl Dance: Not So Super?

That whole thing was a J-O-K-E!!!!

There is no way she was singing that. Anybody can sound good with all the stuff that is added in to the sound these days. Just ask Britney.

I would have loved to seen it live. She would have fell right on her no talent a**!

She was high as a kite too. And anyone that watched it wished they were.

Her singing sounded like a really cheesy "midi file" and her stumbling around hardly resembled dancing. I was very embarrassed FOR her!!!

There is no way she was singing that. She is lucky she was able to dance as high as a kite she was...it wouldn't of been as bad if she took the effort to sing it herself...I don't understand these so called "artist" these days. They need to start singing with their own voice and not the pre-recorded crap!

All's I can say is, What the heck was THAT?! Is it just me or did she use the same ad-libbing from her old "straight up, now tell me" song?

I actually liked the song. But that's just me. Not sure why people feel the need to bash her (and others) all the time. If you don't like the song, fine. If you don't like the way she danced, fine. But is it necessary to bash her and accuse her of being high? Lighten up.
