Wardrobe malfunctions have plagued swim meets at the World Championships in Rome.  These fancy new suits... may be fast... but they're ah... breezy? 

Wow...  The talent - incredible.  Please take a moment and be reintroduced to the genius of Jackson!

This is video of Jason Mraz ... singing for some special event back in Grade 8.  Sooo soo cute.  Such a handsome we man singing such a grown up song! 

It always impresses me when artists sound great during live television performances.  Especially when that performance is first thing in the morning... on a cool, rainy New York morning.  But, not surprisingly, John Legend nails it!  Especially the high notes in the beginning of the song!

WOW... many artist sound um... sub-par when it comes to live performances on television shows like talk shows.  But holy Katie Melua! She performed her song "If You Were A Sailboat" Wednesday night on Jimmy Kimmel Live.  How is it possible she actually sounds better than the album version?  She is spot on. Not to mention she is drop-dead gorgeous! 

What a talent! 

Susan Boyle came in 2nd. 

Ms. Boyle lost the Britains Got Talent crown of glory to a wicked dance group called Diversity.  

Once she recovers from exhaustion, and puts her new found fame in perspective... I think she'll do just fine.  Newspapers predict Boyle could earn millions with a recording contract, a book deal, and perhaps a movie about her life.  Next month Boyle is scheduled to record an album with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra. 

Susan Boyle has made it to the finals of Britain's Got Talent with the performance of the Memories from the musical 'Cats'.  Despite her nervous first note, Susan once again wowed the judges and the audience by the end of the song.... even judge Simon Cowel gave her a standing ovation. 

What will happen at the shows Finals?

If nothing else... the show Britains Got Talent is a great reminder of the 'never judge a book by it's cover' lesson.

Could this be the person to beat out Susan Boyle?

May I introduce you to Gregg Pritchard.

Here is a video of Edmonton's John Stetch performing the theme song from Star Trek!  

This is a link to his webpage.. the video is at the bottom of the page!  

Enjoy fellow Trekkie!

On the heals of the fantastic Leonard Cohen concert, I've found this video of Sheryl Crow singing a wonderful version of Hallelujah... check out her hair.. must be from years ago!
