VH1's "But Can They Sing"

"They" being B list celebrities who are famous for their non-vocal talents (Joe Pantaliano, Morgan Fairchild, Larry Holmes, Carmine Gotti to name a few.)

Turns out ............. no, they can't sing ............. but the show is like a train wreck, you can't turn it off. Then you get to vote each week American Idol style and the two participants with the lowest votes get the boot.

I'm only watching because of Carmine Gotti who, incidentally, can neither sing OR rap ......... but gosh, doesn't he look cute doing it?

And yes, I'm old enough to be his baby sitter, but that's beside the point. With a member of the Gotti family AND Joey "Pants" on the same show, it's enough to tide me over until "The Sopranos" comes back on in 2018.

I can't even watch this as my "commercial show", you know, the one you click to while there is a commercial on the show you are watching.

The host is just awful. The "jury" is just awful, and everything else is just awful.

Not only can Carmine NOT sing he can't even talk. How bad is it when the Gotti boys have to have subtitles whenever they speak on their own show? I almost fell out of my chair laughing when one of the brothers talked about going to college, but I guess if you have enough money you can buy your way into college.

The scary thing is he's actually getting BETTER. Well, not with the singing but he's lost the paralysis he had in his right arm the first night. Actually looked like he had some performing ability during the "Grease" rendidtion the other night.

I can handle the extremely bad singular performances, but those duets almost killed me.

Yeah, the "Superfreak" thing was pretty bad last night, but I'm a Temptations fan, so I'm a little biased.

What made it so bad though was not so much the singing as Morgan Fairchild not seeming to be comfortable having to share the performance with Bai Ling.

I wouldn't want to share a stage with that Bai Ling either - - - she's one down right grose woman!

Temptations did do background on Super freak.

Remember the line..."Temptations SING!!"

Teena Marie also said it on 'It must be Magic"

I was shocked to see

*spoiler alert*










Bai Ling get the boot. I really thought it was going to be her and Carmine in the end. The audience seemed to be filled with teenage girls or Asian Bai Ling fans.

I liked her.
