Keri Hilson, Katy Perry & Jennifer Nettles Salute the Troops

(L-R) Singers Keri Hilson, Katy Perry, and Jennifer Nettles pose onstage during day two of rehearsals for “VH1 Divas Salute the Troops” presented by the USO at the MCAS Miramar in Miramar, California yesterday.

A few nights ago, someone in Keri’s camp called to ask my “honest” opinion on Keri’s new music video, “The Way You Love Me”, off her upcoming No Boys Allowed CD.

I appreciated the opportunity to share my viewpoint, but I don’t think it went over very well. I really, really want to like Keri, but she tries too hard, which is typical of people with limited talent. She’s gorgeous though.

“VH1 Divas Salute the Troops” concert event will be televised on Sunday, December 5 at 9:00 PM ET/PT on VH1.

    I agree with the trying too hard part. I don’t hate her, but she does too much extra that is not needed. Looks desparate.

    I LOVE me some Jennifer Nettles from the group Sugarland…

    Yep told yall I got eclectic musical taste…

    Keri and Katy look cute too…All three are very talented IMO…what limits Keri’s talent? Cause ahhhh SONGWRITING is a good talent to have. Ask Kandi. Ask Missy. Ask Ashanti…All probably still spending that ASCAP money…record sales money prolly BEEN gone…She might not be the best performer…but writing royalties last dayum near forever if you play your cards right.

    One thing I really don’t understand is why so many people claim Keri can’t sing? I don’t get that, OK she’s no Whitney Houston or Mariah Carey but she’s definitely a good singer.

    @ySoSerious
    If Keri isn’t the EPITOME of a NO BODY-Having B-I-T-C-H… Then WHO IS Exactly :shrug:

    And for the Females/Women that may get offended by my statement… A Buddy of MINE sent me a link of Keri DOING THAT PUCCI-Popping Dance Along With her back-up dancers and it was an Endless LOOP of that particular scene in THAT Video (I COULDN’T Stop Laughing…) And the Expression on HER FACE :rofl:

    Soooo My RESPECT Level for Her is NON-EXISTENT (Sorry…) :coffee:

    Jen Nettles is the lead singer from Sugarland…they are kinda pop coutnry if there IS sucha thing….she has one of the oddest voices there is but for some odd reason I like it…it has what I call “a yodel” to it…Marsha Ambrosius has one too…

    YSoSerious says:

    Okay, I found something nice to say…

    I like Sugarland, I saw them on Seasame Street. My bad for not recognizing Jennifer.

    @ELove

    I agree that Keri needs to go back to puberty and try again. Trying to puzzy pop with the body of a twelve year-old boy is not the business.*

    *I tried. :shrugs:

    remember when Ms. Keri Baby uttered these words……….

    Speaking in a 2009 interview with Complex magazine, Keri Hilson said:

    I don’t want to be oversexed! I don’t want to sell sex, I want to sell music. I want to inspire others, I don’t want to be one of those people who’s always throwing their body at the masses. What good does that do? Besides sell records. Men don’t buy records, anyway.

    Hmm… :think: :blink: :shrug:

    This lame show gets worse and worse every year. Back in the day it was an expression of the best artists in the game with peeps like Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, Whitney Houston, Diana Ross, Mariah (before the lip syncing), etc. These days, I wouldnt be surprised if Justin Bieber puts on a wig and call himself a diva right next to Willow Smith! Pathetic…
