Like I said in the edited post, I'm not judging what may be going on in the background. she may not do th opera thing all the time. Maybe she just did it for the show to put her best out there. I don't know. All I know is that she sang fantastically.

"The opera thing" takes years of training and discipline. I know. I did it.

And, no... she did not sing fantastically. It was painful. She yelled through it. I'm not talking about her talent; she has tons of it. She has no business "singing" Nessun Dorma (which, like Alex pointed out was written for a tenor), and the adults who not only let her, but encourage her, are using her as a novelty. It makes me sick and sad.

IMHO

I finally got around to checking out the video and not bad.

The links to the 'pros that know" do not know what kind of training she may have received.

I noticed a lack of evidence that it would destroy her for life.

Personally, I think kids should be doing physics and calculus by the ninth grade, so something simple like singing? Give me a break. I have been on a school bus and they spent more time screaming at the top of their voices for a much much longer time than that short performance.

KUDOS kid.

The bold is possibly the most insulting thing I've ever heard.

Actually, your entire post is extremely fucking insulting and wrong, and I actually had a physical reaction to it, which is extremely fucking rare.

Fuck.

You.
