Willnu -- sort of like the LOVE BOAT... "Big Brother Live, with tonight's special guest stars (add your own list of has-been entertainers here -- not that SC is a has-been, but why is she doing this to her career?)"

No, but CBS is owned by Viacom, who also owns A&M Records (Sheryl's label).

She can do acoustic too, maybe it will be an unplugged version.

A little summer concert in the BB BY! and CBS will likely have a set up for it. It is going to be strange to have 8 people getting that excited in front of her. I think it is a great way to have an extra hour of BB, and see how the HG are in this scenario.

Marcellas is free to go back in the house, as far away from the yard as possible, if the concert causes him that much distress. Perhaps he'll hit the panic button and just run out the front door.

Is it possible to sing subliminal messages?

Im 54 and I know who she is but can not tell you what she sings, she has not had a hit in ages all I remember is she was going with Eric Clapton long time ago, guess i will get me a sixpack of beer so i can forget her singing on the show.

Right on, Woofy! Like many other post-ers here, I wondered, "Why Sheryl Crow?" You make an important point: thanks be to GOD that BB didn't ask Kathie Lee Gifford OR Rosie O'pinionated to come and sing. Now, that would have been absolutely revolting! I've heard of Sheryl Crow and would be able to pick her out of a police line-up, I think, but I was unable to name any of her songs. Every song listed above, however, I have heard on the radio--and I hate every one of those annoying, repetitive, meaningless songs.

I certainly hope she hands her guitar over to Jason. That boy can SING! Have you listened to his song yet from http://www.jasonguy.com ? I have saved it to my hard-disk and play it frequently. Jason of BB3 will be a big winner whether he leaves the house with $500K or not!

Just a bit of trivia from a music freak (as opposed to diehard Sheryl Crow fan) - SC also used to play guitar for Michael Jackson. Yes, Michael Jackson. She toured with him at one time; she appears (playing guitar) in his "Dirty Diana" video, I believe, if anyone remembers that.

She also used to TEACH SCHOOL in Missouri. I wonder if she and Gerry will bond over this commonality?

(just remembered the Einsteinian remark Chiara made in the DR about how it was hard to choose who she should be loyal to because someone was "a girl" and around her age, and someone else was from her state.. and she had such a serious look on her face too, as though this was really a hard decision. har!)

Sobad, I knew that!!! lol, I'm a Michael Jackson fanatic so that's how I knew that tidbit.

I LOVE Sheryl Crow and think the HG's are gonna go NUTS when they see her. She's awesome, most commonly known for "all I wanna do (is have some fun)". She recently released an a new album and she is sooooooo hot! Very sexy woman, I think it's gonna be a good time, I'm sure the HG's will love to hear some music!

Heya Laura - I get the feeling there might not be a lot of other MJ fans around the board, but then again maybe I'm wrong because I like him too.

I liked SC's second Cd very much, nearly wore the thing out (I think it was second - the one with "Maybe Angels" on it, don't have it handy so I can't look) .... a friend gave me the new one and I don't like it as much as some of her other stuff but maybe it'll grow on me if I listen to it more.

Sia I've tried to listen to Jason's song for days now but keep getting a "parameters incorrect" error. I'm very sad about that. :(

I like Sheryl Crowe and so does my daughter. I think it's cool that Sheryl's a fan and isn't ashamed to admit it! :)

One of the cooler things about Sheryl Crow is that she's with Owen Wilson! (who co-wrote Rushmore, my very favourite film)

I wondered if anyone else knew about her MJ connection sobaditsgood. She also had a fine video that was a wild hallucination of Las Vegas(isn't Las Vegas a hallucinogenic?) called appropiately enough: LEAVING LAS VEGAS. A lot of Elvis impersonators, baby.

Her song Soak Up The Sun is also Number 20 climbing from 24 last week on Billboard's top 100. Interscope is the label with A&M owning that label. I went to see her last month in Dallas and Gwyneth Paltrow was on stage with her for one song. She is great. Big fan. I am jealous.

Not that anyone cares, but the best person that I have seen in concert is Lenny Kravitz. If you get the chance, it is worth it. Like seeing Jimmy Hendrix on stage. I was blown away.

For those still confused as to who Sheryl Crow is, here are some samples of her music:
All I Wanna Do
Soak Up the Sun
C'mon C'mon
Hole In My Pocket
If It Makes You Happy
Every Day Is A Winding Road

Sia I just listened to Jason sing boy he is good,I put his site in favorites. Hope SC hands over that guitar too.

I also have to admit that I have never heard of Sheryl Crow or any of her songs. I guess I must still not be the target demographic they are looking for with this show.

We only listen to music on the oldies stations. I'm going to have to ask my nieces what is going on. My teenage nieces are going to tell me I'm not cool once again. Oh well.

Now if they had Tina Turner, then you would find me outside of the house along the street to sit and listen.

Hey Niceguy - I've never seen SC's 'Leaving Las Vegas' video (I deliberately avoid seeing music videos)but alas I didn't much care for that particular SC song.

But I love the *movie* "Leaving Las Vegas," with Nicolas Cage and Elisabeth Shue - it's one of my favorite movies. Love it, which some find perplexing because it's not exactly a 'feel good' movie. Hah! The soundtrack is excellent, too (no Sheryl Crow on it though).

Good to see a "niceguy" here, by the way. I hear rumors from time to time that none of you still exist. :)

I am waiting for Sheryl to say Amy you have such a wonderful voice, I would love to do a duet with you.

Nicole's reaction to Hardy's phone call will pale in comparison to Chiara's when she hears this.

Ha, Maris, I was thinking the same thing. Also wondered if she might ask Jason to singalong since, if she is as big a fan of the show as has been reported here, she surely knows he has a band.

I think more generally any attractive woman coming into the BB house would make Chiara nervous and/or jealous as long as Roddy is still there, and if you add to the equation the fact that the attractive woman is also famous, talented, wealthy (though of course many musicians aren't nearly as $$$ as a lot of folks assume), single....well, MEEOOWW. (Not that Chiara will outwardly behave as anything other than thrilled, I'm sure.)

But I've never heard Amy sing... *does* she have a wonderful voice? Anyone who's heard her, does she resemble anyone vocally? Just curious. Maybe I'll get a chance to find out when Sheryl visits. :)

Maris: Do you think Sheryl would join her in a chorus of "Another Ho In The Park"? (See the Amy & Marcellas Show Thread for details) :O

Roflmao. I am sure that Amy and Marc can write a song for the special occasion.

I'm with the people who couldn't care less about watching a Sheryl Crow concert in the BB house. I've heard of her and she's fine. If I wanted to listen to her I'd turn on the radio or go buy a CD. If they want to use CBS to shill her music, schedule a music special. This is just a time stretcher and a publicity stunt that will take up way too much of the show! Boring!!

I agree Eden.

The Survivor visit allowed the house dynamic to continue and even added a little drama. So we watch HG's watch Sheryl sing? Three songs yet! How dull.

This has nothing to do with her talent, just mixing the two does not work for me.

What time is the concert? I might tune in. But, I also don't see how it could add anything to the house.

If the HG's sing along will the go FOTH? Or maybe a penalty nom!!

I, too, don't understand why SC is going to perform. I don't have anything against her music, but I don't have any of it in my house (not even my teenaged daughter listens to it). But after this long in the house with only the other losers to look at, I'd probably act like some kind of a groupie (only I'd be trying to sing along without knowing the words, and looking real dorky y'know? Just moving my mouth, trying to look cool...lol)
But remember last year when Survivor came into the house...weren't they involved in some kind of competition? Maybe AS is gonna put a spin like that on this SC thing. hmmmmmm
