For those who have not followed my blog in the past, I am a huge fan of NBC's new show, The Voice. Not only am I enamored by all four celebrity coaches...I have been in awe of the talent thus far. For those of you who follow the show and watch this Tuesday's episode you can imagine the the mixed emotions I felt. I don't know what was more disappointing...Raquel Castro's performance during the first battle of the night or the fact I recognized her from the movie, Jersey Girl. Yes, I am talking about that horrible movie starring JLo and Ben Affleck when they affectionally were referred as American "power couple: Bennifer." The memories of that union still haunt my dreams...that man actually went fake tanning more frequently than starred in movies....I expected more from an Academy Award winner. Perhaps her booty was his kryptonite...he could not say no to her or her sexual prowess.
Back to the issue at hand...this past episode of The Voice while starting off rocky did end with an excellent performance by the Thompson Sisters. This last performance proved that although young and inexperienced, these siblings have the heart and talent to go far in this competition. I'm sorry Raquel. You are adorably precocious but after Tuesday's lackluster performance I don't think you have the pipes to go to the top. Looking on the bright side of things, however, when JLo inevitably makes another craptastic movie, you'll be frist in line! You have already got an in and the exposure you have gained from the show can help with your dancing and acting career. Unfortunately, I don't think things will pan out for you as a singer. On a positive note, you have made Long Island proud...after such hot messes like Joey Buttafuoco and Billy Joel you have given Long Island something to finally be proud of.
