She sounds like a deaf person whose having a cesiure. Or a duck with a mouth full of salty crakers. The ONLY reason she won AI was because of the color of her skin. Its called reverse racism. People for some reason are scared to disagree with black people. It would be like letting a legless man win a foot race, just because he's disabled. Come on people grow a bakebone!

Question, what was wrong with her performance? The girl ROCKED! While her hair was strange, in color; we must be mindful that this lady is a SUPERSTAR! She no longer has to adhere to the American Idol rules, or our narrow perceptions. Interesting enough, there is a saying, those that can't, criticize. When was the last time any of you critical folk sold out auditoriums? Chill out everyone. If we were all to be alike, we would be. Fantasia is an entertainer. Check her out the next time she is in your area. I heard so much about Fantasia’s performance that I had to find in on line. Question, what was wrong with her performance? The girl ROCKED!

Now all she can do is scream/shake her booty and hire backup singers as the main singing component. Call her a performer and NOT as a singer. Fantasia has lost her singing ability.

I happen to catch the look on Simon's face and wondered what the song sounded like, or did she perform some lewd act or what. I read comments, and most of them were great and I finally googled the performance. I agree with one writer that Fantasia is not on A.I., she is a singer and performer. She's always performed with zest, and since she's doing what she's always loved to do, she makes sure she entertains. True, some of James Brown's words you couldn't understand, but he was definitely "Godfather of Soul". Tina Turner and her dancers were energetic as well. I love Fantasia and while watching the performance I had to say "You Go Girl". Unfortunately I was out of town and missed A.I. and only found out 3 days later that Fantasia was on the show.

I was just pondering on why I stopped watching the show--it just hasn't been the same since Fantasia won. She really set the bar high as far as the type of TRUE entertainment Americans are yearning for. When they announced this year's finalists, I shut off the TV in disgust. Nowadays, it's all about looks and teenie boppers. Talent is simply an afterthought. Not to mention, the producers continue to place weak minority contenders on to soften the competition.
