this should have rock . vh1 move away from the traditional diva ( whitney houston and celine dion and etc . ) that have make the 2003 show so stale . sadly the move backfire . the show have no mc keep the show together . queen latifah do a fantastic show at the 2003 diva . the show kick of with a horrific rendition of lady marmalade feature patti labelle and cyndi lauper and and jessica simpson . okay in the studio with some control they can all sound great . however and when they be compete with each other ( why . ) it just sound torturous . jessica simpson have the most bizarre facial expression when she sing that i have ever witness . cyndi lauper also perform girl just wan na have fun . that wasn not a bad but it be hardly impressive . the bad be yet to come . cyndi and patti labelle team up to perform cyndi hit time after time . it be acoustic and and do not fit in with the rest of the show . still it could have be okay if they both hadn not insist on squeal like mamed animal . it be just dire . debbie harry ( from blondie ) be always cool . she have a style of her own and although maybe she can not compete vocally with a many of the diva although she certainly can sing very well . debbie come out and perform blondie # 1 hit rapture . with some lovely vocal . she really hit the note perfectly . she look stun . rapper eve provide a new and but sadly inferior rap . it be good . debbie next performance be a team up with newcomer joss stone . they perform the blondie hit one way or another . i think joss misunderstood the style of the song and just shout over debbie . a rather sad bit be when debbie try and fail to match her shouty style which spoil it a bit . she should have just let joss get on with her totally inappropriate warballing . the whole of blondie perform this track . the final track debbie perform be blondie massive hit call me . it be pretty poor . not debbie fault because you just couldn not hear her . the sound be atrocious all the way through the show . joss stone also perform a few song on her own . they be quite well do . ashanti also show up to perform two inexplicable cover version . firstly she do diana ross i be come out and and then chaka khan ain not nobody . she be not a diva . she can sing to an extent but she have no presence whatsoever . why not just get the real singer in . chaka be even interview on the show . gladys knight show up and do a medley . it be very good . she be probably the best bit of the show . i do not know much about her other than she be a seasoned performer in las vega and her experience and class really shine through . patti labelle fit in another performance this time her 80 hit new attitude . it be the finale and it be okay but it be too little to late . this be one big dud . good luck next time vh1 . the version i saw be a heavily edit 55min version which be show on vh1 in the uk . if these be the best bit .
