i thought that was what you meant. well, very cool.

From what I've heard, Holly Vallance's popularity/career is crashing and/or burning.. Apparently 'her' latest album went from #57 to #80 in its first two weeks..

As for Kylie, she deserves some credit for managing to adapt herself to changing pop-music contexts, but I maintain that she is vastly overrated.

i dont think that kylie is a natural singer, she has been learning how to sing (and she is still not there after so many years). her back up singers sound heaps better than her, she just sounds like a squeling mouse

as for holly, lets not even go there. well, noone has yet heard her voice due to enormous amount of distortion and various other effects on her songs. i wonder why.....

Isn't being a singer also require the ability to sing? These two are performers,

And you still called them singers. If you cannot sing, you are not a singer. If you entertain, you are a performer.

But a singer is a performer.

I would rather have a singer who moved around, danced or did some other type of thing than see one which stands there, not moving at all.

A singer is a performer. A performer is not a singer. Just like an apple is a fruit, but a fruit is not an apple.

And wouldn't we all? But it seems all the performers who move and dance around cannot sing for shit.

A performer is many things, in this case a singer.

Now a days no one can really sing, its all done by computers.

So basically, a singer doesn't have to sing, as long as they are entertaining?

No you aren't listening.

The person said before that singers have to sing to be singers and l said "but also they have to have the ability to entertain"

I am saying AS well as singing they need to entertain to be good singers.
