stepping out with Katherine Jenkins

[quizzywig]

A beautiful operatic voice but to me, not really suited to the songs she's singing in the show. Lovely dresses though.

i saw one dance, then heard her sing one song, got bored, turned over.

[Zacs-Master]

Bit like Alfie Boe. If I hear him murder another classic I'll......

[ladybirder]

Me too. I was expecting her to sing opera.

[lilacben]

I was looking forward to the show but now it is on I am bored. And also do not like the songs she is singing. Shame.

[DTCwordfan]

All a bit coated in that candy sugar.............come on Katherine, about time you did that opera instead of farting around to earn big ITV cheques.

[Zacs-Master]

Opera singers should sing opera. Period.

[lady-janine]

is anyone watching the programme on bbc4?

[Zacs-Master]

I'm sure somebody is.

[B00]

I'm watching Alien Investigations.

She's not exactly what I would call an opera singer though .More crossover .
She just sings songs from operas .
She couldn't hold a candle to some of the great opera divas .

[DTCwordfan]

She did say that she wouldn't tackle a full opera until she was 30, letting her mezzo-soprano voice mature.

Well she's 30 now.....prove it, Katherine, that you have it.

[quizzywig]

Il Divo were brilliant!

[MASS1961]

According to the listings. It's set in the 30's, maybe that's why there's little opera.

[Maydup]

Its a bit ITV but its OK for a wintery night in. Shaney's right, she's not an opera singer, she just has an operatic voice whihc isn't particularly suited to this middle of the road stuff.

[factor-fiction]

Well, her lungs have certainly matured, DTcrosswordfan.

[DTCwordfan]

well she's on safer ground now with André Rieu and Strauss........and Simon Cowell's major money-spinner quartet has just been on, Il Divo.

[DTCwordfan]

she can come and tongue train with me, factor......
