PS I can't stand that REHAB song…but this is the kind of singing she should be recognized for in this country (America). She is an amazingly gifted jazz singer. I'd gladly sit in a club all night and listen to that kind of sultry voice.

That's healthy? Yikes. She looks like she needs to eat food as opposed to alcohol/drugs, for LONGER than a week. And seriously, get rid of the hair and extreme eye makeup for Gods sake, your a good looking woman without it.
diane says – reply to this

she sounds great, but its not acoustic version since she did have someone playing music for her. Acoustic means no music, just vocal.

Amazing, I hope to see things like this for years. Get well diva!
Sunny1 says – reply to this

OK—I know I'm an old bat, & 'out of it'…..cuz I've never heard her sing before. Just seen her on various sites, & read about her.

But I have to say, this blew me away.

She seems so fragile & unsure of herself. How sad.

This is true, raw talent. I hope she can get it together, & beat the monster that is addiction.

And thankfully, this song also washed away the horrible echoes of 'Gimme More' that have been reverberating in my head…

That was fucking horrendous and I love that bitch.
punchyness says – reply to this

21

you have a distorted view on people if you think she looks healthy. she looks like a drug addicted hooker man and she really needs some food goddamit. get well, amy!
ohmyohio says – reply to this

22

that's how she sings with probably little to no practice–imagine what she could do if she sunk her heart into it…
UKer says – reply to this

beautiful
Jessie says – reply to this

Re: diane – No…accapela is just vocals.
unfortunately says – reply to this

25

Ummm…I seriously doubt that she's healthy. I doubt she honestly took herself through detox while on vacation. I doubt she rehabilitated herself. No matter how much you love her and wish her the best and no matter how talented she is…she is a human with serious addictions that can't be overcome by laying on the beach. Perez, you're really not doing her any good by pretending otherwise.
big city says – reply to this

26

voice is good - smokey and yearning like…

too bad she will die before her time. she happened to get into the types of drugs that are nearly impossible to kick.
Sunny1 says – reply to this

27

Diane…you're thinking of acapella.
Meg says – reply to this

28

she looks like she has an eating disorder and her voice isn't THAT great, but it's still good.

she should have won! what have klaxons done that's particularly groundbreaking?

Amy is amazing…..
Team Amy says – reply to this

32

Comon Amy. Please get it together. That voice is like a little slice of heaven. This gal can SANG!
... says – reply to this

33

Ughh…your girl is a hot mess. Mucho overrated.
h says – reply to this

34

diane is an idiot.

with no instruments is a capella.
PJ says – reply to this

35

Imagine how much more amazing she'd be without the drugs! I hope she gets healthy (and perez honey, she does NOT look healthy) and finds peace within herself….she must feel miserable to be messing up her life the way she is. Imagine having that talent and hating yourself as much as she obviously does. Seriously Amy - show yourself some love and respect! It's one thing for your fans to love you (and we do) but at the end of the day, you're the only one you've got.
blluuulllaapphh says – reply to this

36

If she would only realize just how truly talented she is….. WOW>

Amy - keep it up = you keep ME going.
KT says – reply to this

37

I just kept thinking… Will this be the last time I see her perform?
Mike says – reply to this

38

She has put on at least 1o pounds(her father said 12 pounds,but let's not exagerate:),which means she does look healthier,i just hope she can clean up her act because not only do i love her music but i think i love her also!
mona says – reply to this

39

I love her she's the greatest…She proves she's got control of herself…sometimes in life..we all step outside the line of our path…but get right back on it…she's got it !

Dianne, you're a fucking stink hole!

ACAPELLA means voice unaccompanied by music.

Stupid cunts shouldnt try to correct people.

Re: diane – Stupid cunts shouldnt try to correct people.

Acapella is w/o music.

you torn anus.
vanessa says – reply to this

42

Did you see/listen America? This is real voice and talent. Not like that shit spears, just the perfect dum, arrogant and stupid america symbol
Duh says – reply to this

43

To Diane: Acoustic means unplugged instruments. Acapella means with no instruments at all. DUH!
DIANE IS A FUCKTARD says – reply to this

44

Re: diane – dear diane…look up the definition of acoustic..you are a fucktard. it means not plugged in to anything electric…i believe you are confusing that with accapella..and no she wasnt accapella, she was acoustic. people like you fucking ruin lives with your dumb as fuck comments.
trish the bitch says – reply to this

45

I LOVE Amy! Finally some real raw talent. I hope she can some day soon see herself as others see her, as an amazingly beautiful and fragile girl with real talent. Hopefully she does before it's too late.
jp says – reply to this

46

nasty ugly cracky bitch
talent-less Britney says – reply to this

47

This just makes the talent-less Britney seem all the more pathetic. Pretty stark contrast between putting your soul into a song and singing it LIVE vs. putting it through a computer and singing about getting fingered and wiggling your ass.

She sounding amazing, never better but she couldn't wait to get outta there could she?? That dope is a muther.
Catmom says – reply to this

52

I think she is ok but don't see why everyone makes such a big deal over her.
beejshan says – reply to this

53

Re: diane – that's called acapella. acoustic is when the instruments aren't plugged in.
amy says – reply to this

54

I was rather good, thank you.
Barrinton Smythe the third says – reply to this

I thought that was sensational
When she finished I was a little misty eyed
Haven't reacted like that in a long while
Annie says – reply to this

56

She is so incredibly gifted - a special talent - and SO MUCH to stay healthy for. STOP ABUSING YOURSELF!
joe says – reply to this

57

in my opinion she is on of the most talented singer out right now. I just hope she can keep it together long enough to realize it for herself. That said she is looking better and hopefully will continue. Best wishes.
Gustavo Medeiros says – reply to this

58

i'm sad to say that, but SHE IS A MESS.
Mari says – reply to this

Amy you have talent and a great voice.You do know how to sing,so please ty to put your things together,because you still can have a better future.And get rid of that stupid husband of yours.
RENEE says – reply to this

SHE SOUNDS GREAT! i HOPE SHE GETS BACK ON TRACK WITH HER LIFE.
Sue says – reply to this

61

Yeah she has a good voice but i didn't think this performance was all that, I had this on at work and everyone was telling me to turn the shit off cause it sounded horrible.. Not a very good performance.
Katrin says – reply to this

Re: diane – Nuh uh. It means music that isn't amplified.
snow says – reply to this

67

she doesn't look/act like she's high anymore. at least… it doesn't appear that way.

don't waste your talent away… go amy!
SN says – reply to this

68

Re: talent-less Britney – Well said! So, so true.

This was beautiful and moving. Her voice is beautiful, and the sad thing is that I don't think Amy herself even realizes it. Hopefully all of the praise she receives will lift her spirits just enough to stop her from destroying her voice and life with hard drugs.
MiSz KeKe says – reply to this

69

LOVE HER, SHE LOOKS FANTASTIC!!! And I wish her othing but the BEST!!!
Sally says – reply to this

70

She is a HARD woman to look at, just watching her, I almost threw up. You know show business is about "show" and you have to look good to the audience, and she is terrible looking. I can't listen to her because of the way she looks. Poor thing.
Fab says – reply to this

71

Wow. I believe anyone who could sing like that feels every note. Amy please please please take care of yourself. Nothing in this world is more precious than life and what you can do with it. No matter how much hurt you are feeling you always have a choice to face your fears and make your life better. I truly hope you are both on your way to getting well. Much love and courage to you.
MissTermann says – reply to this

72

One word: WoW.
Fab says – reply to this

73

Wow, amazing. I believe that someone who sings like this feels every note. Amy, please please please take care of yourself. No matter what is happening there is nothing more precious than your life. You can choose to get better and do great things. I do hope that you are both on your way to getting well. Much love and courage to both of you.

Re: diane – i think you mean acapella dumb ass
Endora says – reply to this

75

Wow. My eyes have been opened to how talented this woman is. It's too bad she's better known in the US for the chaos in her life. I hope that changes.

She sounds amazing! and she looks and sounds sober! Hope you stay that way, amy!

Welove you amy!!! says – reply to this

79

She looks great! Seems she might have put a couple pounds back on, loks healthy and hopefully she is!!!
We love you Amy! Stay strong, keep believin girl!!!!!!
ella says – reply to this

naw diane, acoustic means basically the same as unplugged, and a capella means only vocal. the guy is playing acoustic guitar. it would be hard to play acoustic guitar only vocally.
Re: diane –
susumii says – reply to this

81

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!! there is something about her, she just has that xtra something that makes her unique. I really hope she gets better and i wish her all the best.
Welove you amy says – reply to this

82

Fro #13 Diane…..

Acoustic means "unplugged" intruments
Acapella means no music just vocals……

It was an acoustic preformance.

Willis says – reply to this

85

Merely good, not great, Perez. She DOESN'T look healthy and she mumbles. The feel was strange I thought.
brittany says – reply to this

86

i absolutely love her
Heartless says – reply to this

87

She looks FAAAAR from healthy. She has an amazing voice but she is a very sickly individual.

I hope she does get better.
LessHart says – reply to this

88

Your friendship with Amy is commendable P, but COME ON! Do you really really really think she's looking good there?
Although I must say, it must have taken a lot out of her to get up there after going through her ordeal. So, KUDOS AMY! GET BETTER!
Jesus says – reply to this

89

How many more of you stupid fucktards are going to correct Diane? Like any of you know much of anything…Bunch of no life asshole losers cocksuckers in here..

perez, you are sucj an hypocrit, u used to joke on her soooooo many times before and now u speaking with a kindness that jsut appeard today, u suck men!!
Monkeycox says – reply to this

92

It's such a shame that she is a total mess. It's a waste of amazing talent. She has such a unique and beautiful voice. It isn't that big of a deal that Britney has become a total train wreck - all she could do was lipsync, anyway - but it's actually quite sad that someone with Amy's abilities is sabotaging her career.
Brent says – reply to this

93

One of the true, few and most gifted singers of all time. How often genieus is accompanied by manic swings - don't worry Amy, you'll get your footing - and once you do - look out world - this one is going to change the face of music!
Carl says – reply to this

94

Amy is about to pick up the ball that Lauren Hill dropped years ago! Simply gifted!
TS says – reply to this

95

IF THAT SONG DIDN'T GIVE YOU GOOSE BUMPS, YOU HAVE NO SOUL!

Leave the girl alone, already! Shitty comments and shitty people are what drag others down and put talented and mixed up people in trouble.
Princess says – reply to this

96

I keep forgetting just how YOUNG she actually is!! Her voice is amazing!
Lena says – reply to this

97

Amy, that was AMAING - take care and keep strong.
jj says – reply to this

98

It goes to show you just can't polish a turd!

nothing about her voice is original. sounds like she listened to to many aretha franklin tunes and copied her vocal ability.. she's less than average and looks like a cracked out drag queen!
Eternal Skeptic says – reply to this

99

I'm not impressed. She sounds like Norah Jones with emphysema.
bitch better not die says – reply to this

acappella is no music dummy diane, acoustic is what she did, singing to an acoustic guitar, I agree rehab, the song, was a publicity getting row, and i detest that song, but the rest of the record is great. I hope she really gets some singles out of it. What a talent, please take care of yourself, the world needs to see talent and embrace talent like you babe- a legend in the making

Britney Spears & Demi Lovato's First X Factor Critique! Listen Here!

Girls are on fire!!!

We won't get to see how the ladies did until the fall, but today in Austin, Britney Spears and Demi Lovato took their seats as the new judges on The X Factor. Someone had the foresight of smuggling in a recording device to the Texas auditions and we've got the audio from the ladies' first critique!

And you know what? They sound like old pros!

Check out the video (above) to hear Brit Brit and Darling Demi give their thoughts on the first contestant of season two!

They both sound so GOOD! Strong and confident; it doesn't sound like either of them were nervous at all!

Bravo, ladies! We can't wait to see you in action!
