Spurrious

I answered that before you even asked... Still...Adam can't touch Kelly's full on groveling.

LOL! Like the total throw down she had over Brennan Lassiter? Has she ever fought harder? Nope. Has anyone ever fought like that for someone they dump at the earliest opportunity? Nope. Genuine as a $25 Rolex. I can't stop laughing. All she wanted was to take a country girl from Blake. Period. It was the most disingenuous ego feast in the history of the Voice.

Ya know as I click through those new Insta pics it takes s good minute before I see anything but her eyes. My world view is like this....then slowly the rest of her face and then everything else become clear. #SmittenByThePeepers

Like most everything else it's a spectrum. Some are much worse than others. IMHO Blake and Alicia are on the more sincere side. It's my impression they typically genuinely believe what they say. Yes, it doesn't always work out for a lot of reasons....but. Kelly and Adam are the least sincere side. I don't believe a word they say in the blinds.

Assuming pimping was your focus but the bussing is the worst part of TPTBs Shenanigans. Making someone appear better than they are, while unfair to others, just isn't as mean as making someone appear less than they are. Bussing is easier and there are way more nasty things they can do. Bad song. Bad staging. Bad outfit. Bad equipment (mics and monitors). Bad mix. Bandzilla. I'm sure I am forgetting a few.

All I call tell you is they have fans in high places and not just in the music business. Their fans are the best I ever met...respectful and appreciative but total chill. It's kinda crazy because they are simultaneously one of the best kept and one of the best know secrets in the music business. If you ever get the chance...go.

Thank you...same! :flowers:

So...then do you also believe it when Blake said in front of 2000 people a week after the S12 finals the results were "bullshit"? Or do you pick and chose your truths to suit you? Just askin'. :) Are you really asking me to date myself like that? Linda Ronstadt and Allison Krauss both at the Fox, Jason Isbell at the Lucas Theater in Savannah, Steely Dan at Walnut Creek. FTR: Linda had the best voice ever live. As an impressionable teenager she literally changed my life and fostered my love for music. HM Lynyrd Skynyrd (unplugged) at the Ryman, Pink Floyd at Radio City, Tedeschi Trucks Band at the Ryman, Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett at the Kennedy Center, Also, a concert I was virtually dragged to by co-workers, Justin Timberlake at the MGM Grand. Guessing few know who the Tedeschi Trucks Band is....Just a stadium headliner. xbOlgESKbIc

I know right? FTR: I've been to over 220 concerts in my life (Don't judge, it's my thing). Kelly Clarkson 2005 at the Fox Theater in Atlanta is on my top 5 list. She is exceptional live.

Yeah...it's the lack of respect towards peeps chasing their dream that I find most troubling about Kelly. She doesn't have to prefer them but she should respect them. I'm saying when a contestant has a moment respect the moment. It's not the time for passive/aggressive prissiness because it doesn't fit her agenda.

I know this post is a month old but it's this ll close to being accurate. Should read: S8 even. That's when my awareness of the shenanigans and producers manipulations accelerated exponentially, on top of everything else they concocted to mess up the format. For me, wokness happened in S3. Weather it's bubbling just beneath the surface or a full on eruption it's always there.

Ah! That was therapeutic and helpful. Thank you sir. I feel better now. :flowers:

Sound like you're saying she fights like a bulldog over a bone. Later, she realizes she didn't REALLY want that bone she just wanted to win the fight so she buries it in the yard. Yes? No?

LOL! I call that Pigeon posting. You know....fly in > drop poop in the thread > fly away. :teehee: Anyway...I suspect you are correct. Kelly is making new Stans by the dozen.

I wouldn't go THAT far. Admittedly, I did have her on a pedestal until then. Fact is, she's human like the rest of us. I guess the take away is, no matter how much you admire a celeb they will eventually let you down....just like the rest of us will. No it doesn't, but acting petty towards a contestant you have influence over, for selfish reasons, is not her best look.

Ugg....So we are looking at a s16 ReDuex in S18? S16 was one woman short of a total disaster. I predict this will be a popular gif.

( A ) I never said she hated her. I said she was hostile. "Threatened" may be one of the reasons she was hostile. I have other ideas why....but she was hostile AF. I'll never look at Kelly the same way again. Kelly was petty and emotionally childish towards Maelyn. ( B ) That's just silly. She picked against her every time she had a chance. Maelyn stomped her competitors into a mud hole and Kelly picked the bones out of the mud and call them winners.

There are 14 gorgeous women in this picture but only one makes my heart skip a beat. Can you guess? A follow up question: Is there something wrong with me because there are all these pretty women but I can only see one? Should I seek professional help?

MBA in International Business

Yeah, I can not, for the life of me, reconcile that part of her personality. She was outwardly hostile to Maelyn. I guess that's Kelly getting her "Darkside" on. Despite the bubbly exterior, she definitely has a cold place in some part of her heart. I know we all do but that hers is sooo obvious was a surprise.

True, but too many words. It's far simpler than that. Maylen is Queen; they are not. #SoSayWeAll

Maelyn Alisan Danielle Tessane <3 Cassadee <3 Chloe :) Brynn :) Chevel :)

How can you not love Chrissy?

That's the ONLY acceptable answer. Perfect...again. <3 It's a kindness to the Season 17 contestants that she did not perform Monday because who would have any compulsion to vote for "them" after they've heard "her". The mere though of voting for them would be.... Ewh. :x

It's in the works.
