Then she should have done a science experiment on stage for her talent like a candidate in a different state pageant did and spared all of us our hearing. It was not even music -it was offensive. A good coach would have steered her in a different direction for talent. I saw a few dancers that were obviously lacking greatly in technique. I saw two very good dancers total one mediocre and lots below average. So dancing is obviously open to interpretation. Do that. Don’t wail in a mic, sound like that and not expect backlash. thats not reality, either. I haven’t seen anyone attacking her intelligence and she’s obviously beautiful - but her “singing” was worse than an elementary school talent show. Even some Clemson fans have said the same.
