TV ClubHouse: Archives: Sheryl Crow on Feeds Aug 20 / TV Aug 21
Aria | Wednesday, August 14, 2002 - 07:30 pm     Ellen, her current hit that she sings is "I'm Gonna Soak Up The Sun". |
Espen | Wednesday, August 14, 2002 - 07:41 pm     On the Norwegian BB last year, they had both Status Quo (as mentioned above) and then Later Alice Cooper and the lead singer for Iron Maiden (forgot his name) both visiting, "singing" and hitting on the women in the house.. They didn't stay too long, but it was funny, since the houseguests had been singing an Iron Maiden song for most of the show (no FOTH for that kind of stuff there, at least that year).. They also had a marching band march through their yard and back out (they had a gate of sorts for their backyard).. Even though a lot of people here don't know Sheryl Crowe, I think that is exactly the thing that makes good television for the 18-49 year olds.. Nothing like seeing someone who has been isolated for so long, thinking they are just in some house, suddenly get exposed to a real celebrity to get a feel for how big what they are doing is.. Sure, BB isn't a break-out hit like Survivor, but it *is* watched by 8-10 million people 3 times a week... |
Espen | Wednesday, August 14, 2002 - 07:45 pm     I agree with the person above! But, don't mind me.. just read the message above again... (ok, so I double posted...)

Wcv63 | Wednesday, August 14, 2002 - 07:52 pm     I love Sheryl Crowe and both my daughter and I were very disappointed she was *only* singing two songs. I love "Soak up the Sun". Whoever suggested Alanis Morrissette as the alternate has my vote! I can just see her singing "Ironic" and having Roddy explain to her that there was nothing ironic in the song. Or "You Oughta Know".....the lyrics to that song would have them squirming in their seats. I'm feeling particularly devilish tonight.  |
Marysafan | Thursday, August 15, 2002 - 08:29 am     When I first saw that Cheryl Crowe was chosen my first thought too was that Big Brother was being much too nice. Alanis Morrisette would definitely have been the "edgier" way to go. I am sure with no music for the last several weeks, they are really going to enjoy this. Sheryl Crowe is a Grammy winner and is most famous for her song.."All I wanna do...is have some fun". I am 52 and even I know this! Advice to moms: Keep up with current events and pop trends. Knowledge is power! |
Dfwteddy | Thursday, August 15, 2002 - 08:42 am     (1) Why would SC agree to this? This is one of those things you might do but never add to your resume. Dumb career move and so unnecessary! (2) The HGs already have an inflated sense of their celebrity -- this just adds fuel to the fire. Can you image the egos that will come out of this? |
Crazydog | Thursday, August 15, 2002 - 08:53 am     I like Sheryl's current song, but I think this is a stupid move for her. Her career is fine as it is, and doesn't need such a "plug". I also don't think people who normally do not watch the show will tune in just to see her. Unfortunately, after she is done singing, there will be the usual "ohmigodiamsuchafan" from a few of the houseguests, some "whothe!@#$isthat" from people like Roddy and Marcellas and a big ole "zzzzzzzz" from viewers like me as we are forced to listen to Sheryl offer her worldly advice to the houseguests. |
Espen | Thursday, August 15, 2002 - 09:42 am     According to the EW article, she is doing it because she is a (shock, horror) fan of the show.. So i doubt she is doing it to improve her career, though I am sure CBS is doing it to improve their ratings.. But then, its not like we don't see the houseguests constantly *without* visitors that a few hours with one would hurt us.. I still think it will be interesting, even though I too am not a big fan of her music per se |
Kalekona | Thursday, August 15, 2002 - 10:11 am     Real Player message says she will perform on the 20th and we will be able to see it LIVE on the feeds! Will wonders never cease. |

Jorje | Thursday, August 15, 2002 - 11:12 am     I was about to post that snippet from CBS, too. You beat me to it Tera. I hope folks realize it is on the 20th, not 21st like the initial post. It will be aired on the 21st, but go figure - they're gonna let us watch it live instead of giving us FDCam. :-p |
Kyline | Thursday, August 15, 2002 - 12:19 pm     They couldn't have Alanis Morrissette. They'd get her confused with Lisa and keep the wrong person locked in the house LOL. (Did someone already mention their similar looks? I didn't have time to scroll all the way back |
Ryn | Friday, August 16, 2002 - 05:59 am     YOU MEAN - CBS is not going to BLOCK the feeds? OMG - amazing!!!!! |
Astraea | Sunday, August 18, 2002 - 10:38 pm     SHERYL CROW is owned by BMG, which is connected to Viacom, which owns CBS. Easy. |
Cmc209 | Monday, August 19, 2002 - 09:29 am     I think it's neat that Sheryl is going to perform on the show for the houseguests - I thought I read somewhere that she's a fan of the show. LOL - do you think she ever browses to BBFC to read the updates. <g> If I was a star I'd perform on the show for the guests - nothing like free publicity while you get to do something fun for your favorite reality show. :-) |
