are you kidding me, She phoned it in. She couldn't have been less interested in what she was doing.

I was somewhate excited to see it, but it highly disappointed me.

You can say it was it not her best performance, or that she wasn't very good. Fine, but to suggest she phoned it in is absurd. The stakes are far too high for someone as career savvy as her to have phoned it in.

The song was just not right for Kristin's voice. It sat in a very strange place for her and she was unable to really make it her own. I don't get why they di d not let Amy Adams do both songs. I also do not know why Amy Adams had NO porduction number to go with her song. I wish they would have done some fantastic puppet work like in the recent CINDERELLA tour that Gabriel Barre directed. Poor Amy was just left to sing alone on stage.

Yeah, why did Kristen do this in the first place?

[BrodyFosse123]

Is it me or did La Chenoweth sing that ENTIRE song in her head voice?

Talk about a production number falling flat. Oy!

In retrospect -- Amy Adams' bare bones train wreck performance was better.

Double-oy!

I love Kristin but I wish they would have had Bruce Vilanch dressed in a princess gown and singing the song from Enchanted.
That would have been really funny.

KRISTIN did it because she is an ABC star. Cross promotion for PUSHING DASIES.

i didn't like when she used her more classical sounding voice like in the begaining of the song. it just didnt' fit the song at all. i still wish amy performed it.

I felt SO bad for Amy ... She looked so uncomfortable up there, but booooy, did she try her best to put on a good show.

Ladies and gentlement, introducing: Enchanted The Opera!

It looked cute, but why oh why was the whole thing done in her head voice? And she did look sort of bored.

I feel Amy Adams was a little jipped.

"KRISTIN did it because she is an ABC star. Cross promotion for PUSHING DASIES."

But the odd thing was, when she was introduced, that was never mentioned. She was introduced as "Tony award winning actress Kristin Chenoweth," not "one of the stars of ABC's Pushing Daisies."

I will admit I was expecting a little bit more with The Enchanted performances, but for what it was worth they were ok. I thought Amy Adams did a fair job considering it must have been really nerve racking for her to be performing at the Oscars.

[Flaunt It]

Posted: 2/24/08 at 11:06pm

No TV shows are mentioned.

wow it sucked. poor cheno

Are we all forgetting that it was a Stephen Schwartz song?

Her ABC/Disney affiliation was just icing on the cake.

(Wonder how Idina felt that Kristin was performing a song from her movie...)

[BwayBaby18]

I think Amy Adams was just as boring.

Check the other thread for pics from the Cheno performance.

"(Wonder how Idina felt that Kristin was performing a song from her movie"

I've wondered the same thing. Since they wouldn't let her sing in the movie they could have thrown her a bone here

Of couse she was boring... she was abandoned on stage with a whacky character song and no support or production values.

[lakezurich]

Posted: 2/24/08 at 11:40pm

I don't think the song falls within Idina's range though.
