BEST LIVE PERFORMANCE

 

@blackoutbaby - I actually feel like this performance was not so raved unlike her other ones, I am just pleasantly surprised to see it here, she looks immaculately beautiful and enigmatic here. THE VOCALS are VOCALIZING!

 

@Kylie Verzosa - I like this one, the star quality is very apparent and her command on that stage is just a sight to behold. And how can you go wrong with me when you send a video with shirtless hunks?

 

@Hey Dude - PERFECTION, THE PRODUCTION VALUE, PERFORMER VIBES AND THE CROWD RECEPTION IS GIVING ME SO MUCH LIFE! 

 

@ZORBIT - Thank you for sharing this season's official song, but I am not feeling this entry   but good thing you shared that other video so I didnt think you were trolling with this category anymore xoxo

 

@Overprotected - MAIN POP GIRL PERFECTION SERVED ON A PLATTER, THAT'S WHAT SHE SERVED IN THIS PERFORMANCE. GREAT JOB!

 

@Legend E - I was hoping to see here PIECE by PIECE but i am very much pleased with this one nevertheless. The vocals is incomparable. 

 

@Julia Fox - YOU ATE. YOU KNOW THAT. JOB WELL DONE!

 

@Invisibility - The way she mothered hard in this performance with her visuals and vocals, I am floored. GREAT JOB MISS FKA!

 

@Dessy - POWERFUL PERFORMANCE, I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS ONE!

Alldeezy's Critiques 

 

 

 

Rihanna - Yes This Video was probably the best during the whole era .. I love it .. her makeup, the song, the video .. everything about this MV was perfection

 

Rosalia: It's cute .. but doesn't outstand next to the other videos .. she looks great and the video is giving me Frozen by Madonna vibes.

 

Madonna: I actually kinda forgot about this Video .. and sadly is still pretty forgettable .. but the song itself is great.  Gotta go re live this era again I think 

 

Tinashe: The song that started her career .. think any videos she does she always put her all into, and this was one of them  

 

Kelly Clarkson: Probably one of her best music videos of All Time .. the wedding scene, the forest scene ... ugh gives me chills. PERECTION!

 

Shakira: Same as I said above .. her best music video ... the cage scene  

 

Mariah: Im happy you choose this one .. everyone says this is one of her worst eras but I loved this music video and really shows Mariah fun quirky side

 

FKA Twigs:  The choreography is insane  she delivered here!

 

Ciara: Ciara never misses with her choreography too .. this video will always come to my head when I think Ciara.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rihanna -  Actually one of my favourite performances .. love her vocals here too .. though I feel like she held back a bit during Mikky's part.

 

 

Rosalia - You see .. this performance makes me wanna check more of her out .. her vocals are beautiful here.

 

Madonna:  Her vocals outshines the music here .. but this performance really shows her vocals 

 

Tinashe: Oh to hear this song LIVE .. gives me goosebumps .. her vocals are on point. The band is even amazing when the drums hit in really

made the whole performance   Giving me Rock Tinashe     

 

Mariah:  THE VOCALS ARE ON POINT   

 

Kelly:  even though im not keen on the song ... It is showing her vocals and I love it .. she really delivered here.

 

Shakira: real talent here ..

 

FKA Twigs: Beautiful .. even the end when she was spinning on the poll .. I wasn't expecting that

 

Ciara: another great performance. The band and her sounded so good together .. I need to see more of our girls perform like that

[Yvess]

Sending the final round here so you guys can do something if you want while you are waiting for results xoxo

[Julia Fox]

Cool last round till the finale  I already have some ideas 

[poki]

This sounds fun, I know exactly what I want to do 

[Kern]

welcome @Alldeezy. In a full circle moment you actually managed to be in this game in some way after being late to sing ups 

 

1. Aesthetics

 

This is very hard category to score because everyone serves good aesthetics. But which are the best?

 

First we have Rihanna from ANTI era. Aesthetically I think this was her peak. She managed to take slight turn towards alternative aesthetics because she's not a basic *****. This is very memorable and iconic era visual wise.

Rosalia - wow I've never seen this second photo  Psychedelic visuals are my favorite. Also what @Invisibility said

Madonna - not her best but not her worst too! At least she departed from trying too hard and served something intriguing.

Tinashe - Tinashe and Rosalía queens of aesthetics, shocker. But for real - some would wish to have visuals like she has for BB/ANG3L alone and yet those are her most boring ones. 333 aesthetically is otherwordly. 

Kelly Clarkson - those are very good, memorable aesthetics that fit the era. Even if they aged a little, those years had a very cohesive album visuals, especially in pop-rock.

Shakira - I like that she served a little humoristic visual. The second photo looks amazing, like a painting.

Mariah Carey - this is a bit underwhelming even if slayful. I wish the photoshoot was a bit more interesting.

FKA Twigs - this is too, a bit underwhelming, for FKA standards. She's capable of much more.

Ciara - while the cover doesn't do much for me, I think the second photo is amazing.

Drowned World / Substitute for Love IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS AND VIDEOS OF ALL TIME AND THOSE WHO DON'T SEE IT DON'T KNOW WHAT TRUE LOVE IS 

[Overprotected]

**** my drag right

[Julia Fox]

I had my entry ready but I had to sabotage myself listening to the album again and reconnect with a song that could serve as a SMASH single but at the same time the option I had was good. I mean I’m gonna sit there for some days and see what sticks out. Glad we have time by the way while we wait for crits
