Nicki looked terrible! The weird hairline, the creepy contacts  She picked up a mirror and looked at herself...did she really think she looked good?

Lol...I didn't really read past the 2nd page. But I see both sides:
In NM's defense, yeah it seemed like unnecessary harping.
But coming from an industry perspective, if you don't create a clear identity, it'll be very hard to market yourself. When I submit artists for consideration, it sucks but the first thing the gate keepers ask is "what does he/she/they sound like?". If you're yoddling on every note, you're country - end of story. And that's the point that the other 3 were trying to make.
No one cares that you want to create a cute title for yourself when you have no celebrity collateral to go behind it. If Mariah comes out next year with an album and creates a new genre called "pink butterfly pop" ppl will buy into it because she has the grammy's & more to go behind it. But when you're a nobody knocking on the door to come in, the only way the industry can market you is to unfortunately box you into something that makes sense for the general public to understand.
If the contestant knew how to package herself and knew exactly what her sound was and where it fit in on the grand scheme of the industry, she wouldn't be on AI singing for a chance to compete.

Of course Nicki would think that because her own critiquing sucks. She always critique clothes and always give them bland critiques. They weren't making that girl choose. They were only trying to see what is it the girl really wants to do with her talent. Nicki was being extra.Nicki ain't even in any of the other judges'league.. Oh and them wigs are still awful.

IA with what Nicki was saying...like the girl started to second guess herself and just agreed with what they said. And the "country thing" comment-I think what she was saying was most people tell her to sing country, or that she has the voice for country, but her heart is more into soulful music, and if possible she'd like to blend the two or do both. Keith panties got all twisted and Mariah, though she has been in the industry for a long time, has NEVER sang country. Who died and made her the expert. |
i think she was already unsure of herself and it showcased in her performance. they were trying to get her to steer in one direction. i actually feel like it was a really nice way of saying, "look, your voice is nice...nothing stand out...but to even have a chance of going forward you are going to need to sing country. you yodel. what you're doing is not working"....nobody has time to baby these contestants and let them go in a direction that isn't going to work out for them in the long run(in the context of the show)...i think Nicki is annoyed with sitting on a panel of singers b.c they look at an audition differently than someone who is more of an entertainer(although a very talented one).
