Thoughts on this? Good voice but a bit too showbizzy for me.

So hot.

EDIT: After *ahem* unpausing I have now listened to the first verse of the song. It is fucking awful.

She's cute but I don't think her voice is really suited to the song (diplomatic answer)

She's lovely... But I wish I hadn't listened to that.

Not to my taste, but you can't deny the girl can sing. Brave to do it acapella.. perhaps not the best choice for a song like this.

On top of her (silent) acting chops and, well, looks.. the future looks bright

In return for them doing a shout out for her, she does this to one of their songs?

It's like if someone painted a beautiful picture for you, and in return you recreated it, only you did it in shit. I can't imagine what the thought process behind this decision was.

I thought it was perfectly alright... and a nice idea. Fair enough if it's not stylistically to your tastes, but I think some of the comments here are bit unfair really. Good for her.
