k’s Analysis Of Paula Abdul’s Super Bowl Performance:

Huh?

It wasn’t Brit-At-The-VMA’s level, but it certainly wasn’t all that exciting.  Where was the crazazy?

You could barely hear her singing (and it isn’t my TV, I have the Surround Sound going).  I couldn’t understand any of the lyrics except “Dance like there’s no tomorrow!”  You could tell she was lip-synching (I realize she wouldn’t be singing live, but she could have faked it better).  The dancing was energetic but dull.  And I was just waiting on that microphone stand to hit her in the head.

Plus, what was dancing peepaw Randy Jackson doing?  He was totally doing the white boy dance!  Come on, dawg, put your back into it!

Can’t wait to hear what Simon has to say about it.

Two words:  Bo ring.

Okay, back to my hot wings.  At least they got some spice to them.

UPDATE:  In contrast, Alicia Keys is totally bringin’ it!

  1. So, your only criticism really was that you couldn’t hear the lyrics? Sounds like a good performance to me.

  4. Sorry, mikey…had to remove some of your enthusiasm. It was skewing the page.

    And it WAS boring…dull, flat, boring. Yawn yawn yawn. It didn’t matter if it WAS Paula…it wouldn’t matter who it was. It was BORING.

  5. Typical blog content, boring. True, it’s more fun to rip on celebs then to support them, but yawn to your review K. Why all the hate? Give the 40-something Abdul some credit for getting out there and giving it her all. Besides, if you do a GOOGLE search, a vast majority are favorable reviews.

  6. I don’t care what other blogs say. I haven’t even read them. I don’t hate Paula, I just didn’t like her performance.

    Look, giving it your all isn’t enough. I can play more than one instrument, but I haven’t played the clarinet since 7th grade. Should I give a bad clarinet recital and be commended for “giving it my all”?

  7. apples and oranges K, but I’d expect that from some bored and boring blogger from Ohio.
