Which Diva is gonna get Top Vocal Billing @ President Obama’s 2013 Inaugural Ceremony along the National Mall?(Cast your Votes!!!)

[MisterMajestic]

I came up with 4 Great women for several reasons…All of the Women are heavily tied to The Obamas and the 2012 Campaign....


Beyonce: Yeah back in 2009 The B-Girl got TOP Billing @ the MAIN & Final Inaugural Ball and sang for Mr & Mrs. Obama. But she was one of their great Celeb-supporters through out the 2012 campaign and Michelle practically thinks of Beyonce as a younger sister….So Beyonce’s chances for getting the CALL are pretty good..


Ms. Patti: The Godmother of Soul & the Icon that she is performed @ a Broadway fundraiser for the First Lady and at every Private & Public event the Administration could book her for over the last 4yrs...Patti’s last performance @ the Administrations request was back in September @ a 911 memorial Concert where she received a standing ovation by the Dignitaries while she embraced the Obamas & DaBiden…I don’t think This Soul Legend is gonna beat out the B-Girl this time but if Ms. Patti gets the CALL we all know she does NOT need a Mic to be heard….Patti’s Powerhouse Vocals will be heard all around the Country with no Mic….


Katy Perry: The Obama’s Love her Madly and NOBODY can wear an Obama Campaign Logo dress like the Hot Ms. Perry…She helped the campaign every chance she got and if she’s not asked to sing along the National Mall I see her getting an invitation to Sing @ the President & 1[SUP]st[/SUP] Lady’s Ball…


MiMi Cannon: She’s another young Legend that the Obamas adore. Mimi & Nick raised Millions for the Campaign and became one of the Obamas favorite couples alongside Jigga & B-girl…Mimi’s chances for getting the CALL are not as Good as B-Girl’s but if she does get the CALL she can do her usual Lip-syncing that we’ve come to expect from her whenever she steps in front of a Mic….No one criticized The Queen of Soul for lip-syncing during the 2009 Inaugural Ceremony but we did Chuckle when she open her mouth to sing 3-seconds after her taped vocals had begun….LOL….The only thing people still talk about to this day is that Damn Hat Aretha had on her head…



Alright Guys go ahead and cast your votes and PLEASE list your own Celeb-Picks and any honorable mentions that should be added to the list….

I pray to God it wont be Katy Perry...

 

[MisterMajestic]

I thought about adding Alecia as Diva #5 but she spent more time on the road doing her own thing...The other 4 women really got involved with the campaign....

 

[maxpowr9]

Beyonce totally. This is why...

 

[MidnightPrism]

I love me some LaBelle.

 

[BreakTheIce]

I love Katy Perry but only the radio. She really isn't a consistently great live singer. She has good days but off days too, and she doesn't have a stellar voice to begin with so I'm hoping its not her.

I'm guessing it'll be Beyonce or Mariah pimping out their new album.

 

[Laufey]

Mariah was a great live vocalist but she hardly is anymore.

She didn't fall as hard as Whitney but she's still a shadow of her old self vocally, often using playback for notes she has difficulties with.

 

[MisterMajestic]

I can't believe ya'll are hating on katy like that...You obviously havent seen her in that shiny Tight-blue Obama dress...If you don't want her singing "Oh Beautiful for spacious Skies" on the National Mall she can at LEAST perform at the Ball....

^And? That's still nothing like Mariah of the 90s. Great voice still, but past her prime, no doubt.

It will likely be Beyonce...again.

 

[wilbur33]

Rebecca Black.....no contest.

 

[BreakTheIce]

Also,

 

[EvilTwinTwo]

How about for none of the above or a write-in candidate?

 

[EvilTwinTwo]

She didn't fall as hard as Whitney...

No one, I mean no one has fallen as hard as Whitney

 

[maxpowr9]

No one, I mean no one has fallen as hard as Whitney

Maybe Michael Jackson. From black man to white woman is quite a feat.

 

[knobby]

It should be the diva of all divas --- Miss Diana Ross!!!!

I don't deny that Mariah isn't as good as she was in the 90s but that's just the natural effect of years taking a slight toll on her voice. Happens to all vocalists. The reason I posted that video was over this comment:

"Mariah was a great live vocalist but she hardly is anymore."

^To that I say:

Yes her voice has changed a bit but she still is a great live performer. She can still sing way better than just about every other singer out there right now. She and Celine Dion are probably the best female vocalists in existence today. They really know how to sing properly.

 

[Laufey]

LOL only a fan in denial would believe that's actually sung live.

 

[BreakTheIce]

It's not even her best performance of Fly Like a Bird. If she was lip synching I don't see a reason for her to put that track on play when she's performed it so much better in other places.

FYI I'm not even a major fan of Mariah I just like about 10 of her songs throughout her entire career.

Oh and also, that was live. As was this
