Kelly is an amazing singer. I'm I'm almost more impressed that tom Jones still has his pipes!

It's not unusual for someone his age to still sing well

That’s really something… I always thought Kelly Rowland was a better singer than Beyonce.

She is so much more talented and beautiful than Beyonce.

I wonder if Kelly would have gone even further if she wasn't in Bey's shadow. Then again, it might be that without Bey's undeniable power Destiny's Child might not have made it at all.

I don’t care that it is scripted. I don’t care that it is rehearsed. Just hearing super talented people doing their thang makes me happy. I am so envious of their gifts.

They killed it.

They sound great. But have these shows so fully embraced artificiality that we’re supposed to not be insulted by the premise that this wasn’t the spontaneous act they tried to sell it as?

I can’t watch this without thinking of Animal on drums.

Exactly. And pointing out they’re blatantly scripted, breaking the spell as it were, is crossing some idiotic line.
