Carly Smithson – “The Show Must Go On” (Queen)
First of all, I thought Carly looked gorgeous! She usually does a weird thing with her face when she hits high notes. It’s not attractive, and I didn’t see it happen in this performance. I’m not sure what is was about her (longer extensions maybe?), but she looked better than ever. The judges thought her performance was “angry” and didn’t quite fit with the “inspirational” theme for the week. I agree, it doesn’t fit in with “fluffy bunny” type of inspiration. I do, however, think the song was inspirational in it own right. I thought she did a really nice job with it. That said, I think she’ll be going home this week.
