You gotta love Divine Miss M, she’s definitely a legend and that girl knows how to put on a show. Bette Midler was recently
interviewed by the New York Daily News and she was asked about today’s “pop icons” in music.
Bette Midler has blasted singers including Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera for not showing any “emotion” in their performances. The musical legend – who is currently in Las Vegas completing her ‘Showgirl Must Go On’ residency – argues young stars need to put more depth into their shows.
She said: “They don’t speak. They don’t talk to their audience. They may say, ‘Hello, New York’ or ‘Hello, Las Vegas,’ in the beginning, and ‘Thank you’ in between songs, but they don’t talk. They don’t tell stories or take the time to make a connection, build a rapport. There’s no emotion.” ( no Miss B, they shake their booty around!)
I guess she’s not impressed but I don’t blame her. Video killed the radio star and now we want to be entertained visually. I still think performers like Diddy, Kanye West, and Beyonce got it going on. I’m sure 30 years from now we will see Britney and Christina strutting their stuff for the Vegas crowd.
