Pretty good....she's got that smokey bar room jazzy soul voice that's been popular the last few years in the industry.

I thought she was o.k. and I'm of the belief that these shows do bring out talented people. I think however the politics will push people like this forward just by the name alone. I think this singer from the UK version did the style MP alluded to far better and I don't see Simmons ever putting forth anything moving like this and I don't see her talent as standing on it's own. Then again the judges in the U.K. version don't consist of Britney Spears and Demi Lovato! :tongue:

Usually talent skips a generation or the offspring are so tired of the lifestyles of their famous parents they will do almost anything except try to follow in their footsteps. Parents can arrange an opportunity but that's about as far as it goes, you have to have talent to succeed no matter what profession you choose.

She's okay, but Sooty summed it up perfectly there are plenty of other female vocalists out there who deserve a recording contract that aren't Gene's kids.

Isn't Nick also fronting a band...:think:

She struggled a little, got lost a little, and had a couple flat ones, but she wasn't bad.

She doesn't have worry if she gets tossed. Her dad will buy her a studio, put out her album and buy a million copies.

So Sophie went on X-Factor, which I watched. Sophie isn't going to win since she is more novelty for the show than anything. And yes, The X-factor does need better female judges. I'd say get Joan Jett to replace Britney and Tanya Tucker to replace Demi.

Yeah, who decided that Britney would be a good judge? Did anyone see where she was singing Happy Birthday to L.A.? :&

And if Demi says "That's sick." one more time I may go insane.
