Technically, yes. But if the Black Eyed Peas (or Fergie, solo) ever could be considered ‘art,’ then the bar has been set pretty low.

Who’da thunk it?

I’m not saying there’s only one way to sing the song, but when you take the tune and the lyrics into account, it should be clear that Fever-esque isn’t the way to go, even if you can sing it.

That Marvin Gaye video is amazing. Unlike Fergie, you know this just happened naturally, whereas she was bending over backwards to be sexy. And just came out trashy.

Well, there are two separate problems, in my opinion: First, all the ‘bad singing’ stuff the vocal coach is mentioning. Second, the issue of taste: The National Anthem is not supposed to be sung as a seductive torch song, where the singer eye-fucks the audience. This came about as the result of Fergie being a trashy

Please, no. I come here for the snark and condemnation.

The Beastlies is a passion project we have been working on at Bad Robot for years with the creator of these extraordinary creatures, Leslie Levings. To finally bring The Beastlies to the world, in collaboration with the brilliant minds at Mattel, is an absolute dream.

Ooh! Right on the nose!

It’s too bad they didn’t choose the poop emoji. It would have enabled them to add a chocolate aspect to the product.

If only to hide his erection.

Oh, my heavens! While I’m not any judge of voice quality (eg, pitchiness, flatness, etc.), I do know ridiculous delivery, when I hear it. The National Anthem is not meant to be a late evening torch song, sodden with sexual promise and winking innuendo. Yikes.

You said 69. heh heh.

Nope. I went with a guy named Mark, from my synagogue. We were 13 years old.

$30-$50? Naahhh.

Is that TJ Miller on lead vocals in the top photo?

They moved more like machines in the first movie. In this movie, the robots look smoother, more similar to one another, more like robots in Japanese cartoons, less like sophomore engineering projects. I think they did this to show the progression of technology from the time of the first movie to the second.
