I never watch the show live, always after the fact on DVR, so I can fast forward through all of the commercials, musical acts, and sketches that are clearly lame a minute or two in -- it never takes me more than 30 minutes to watch the show.

I tape it and watch it the next day. Because I'm old and can't stay up that late anymore.

"But really, am I the only one who uses most of the the music breaks in SNL as a time to make a sandwich?"

hahahaha

The musical breaks are definetly NOT the reason I tune in.

The sad thing is the tech guy who screwed-up and pushed the wrong button, hence the wrong song, is probably looking for work this afternoon.

Well, I guess she's supposed to sing on the Radio Music Awards tonight. Hopefully, her "people" have been in damage control since Saturday night.

If she does a modified version of her song and does it in a way that it's obvious she's not lip-syncing, then she might be able to save face.

sad thing is, a modified version probably would have been cobbled together between then and now.

Do you think she will perform still? It is also Live. I wonder if Elton john is going to comment.

It would be career FATAL for her NOT to perform live tonight.

If she doesn't, then Sir Elton will probably comment and rightfully so.

If she does and it's obviously NOT lip-synced then she'll win a lot of "good for her" comments. Like she fell on her skates, got up, and kept on going.

Her 'people' have to be in damage control right now.

This show is going downhill real fast. None of the stetches I saw were funny at all. Even the SNL News was really bad. The show needs a complete overhaul. I ended up falling asleep before the Ashley fiasco.

things have definetly gotten stale.

The coming fiasco (the election) will most likely give them some new material.

She will absolutely be there tonight. There's been way too much press over both the SNL fiasco and the ensuing stories about her performing tonight. She's very fortunate to get this immediate chance to redeem herself.

Will? It should have already. They did a pretty good job in the 2000 election, didn't they? Where's the "Bush and Gore playing Scrabble" of 2004?

"ok, DivaMommy, deal!!"

Sweet! I'm there!

After reading that article, I feel kinda bad for the kid. It's always sad when the the music business is more about the business than the music.

And, I for one, think SNL is finally funny again.

We all know the likes of Ash, Madonnazilla, J-Ho, Slitney, Beyond-ce, etc can't carry a tune in a 5 gallon bucket unless a computer's around; what I don't understand is why this doesn't happen more often.

You know what? I'm actually inclined to believe that last link. The acid reflux thing was on her little MTV show, but more importantly, I buy that this was likely her 1st time performing with backing vocals for two reasons.

1) She has sounded OBVIOUSLY live--from flat to hoarse--on previous performances (Leno, MTV, etc.)
2) Had she been seasoned enough at singing to a vocal track, she would have had a better idea what to do. The Hoe-down/Jig method of handling the snafu seems like a pretty clear beginner-panic thing to do.

Anyone agree? I mean, no doubt, it was a lip-synchy thing, but I think I will accept the explanation. I really do feel sorry for the kid.

Who cares? She still sucks.

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

I'm thinking of starting a fund for her to get singing AND dancing lessons.

Have the Radio Music Awards happened yet?
edit: never mind, I see they're on now. Has she performed yet?
edit again: sorry. They're over now. Did anyone see her?

What the heck are the Radio Music Awards?

Another awards show for the rappers who sing about degrading women, gunplay, and nasty sexual stuff, all using the most vile language possible, to get up and thank God for their careers.
