I think she sang that pretty well for someone who is only twelve and can't afford singing lessons. Even though I didn't vote for her, I still absolutely enjoyed this performance and I would like to see her come back on America's got Talent in a few years.
....Monet was in my class last year :l she got on my nerves alot, but i guess she was o.k. Yes, she had an atitude that was a bit like,"ill prove to you that i will be awesome" kinda thing, but she didnt really get it sometimes when people told her something, like the judge did when he told her that her voice wasnt mature enough. Haters, shut up. shes 12. Im not saying that she was great, but give her a break.
dude, to all u freakin haters, SHUT UP! she went to my school last year, i walked home with her every day, she was my neighbor, and i didnt treat her as well as i should have :l she is awesome, u guys just need to shutup, u guys dont know her.
@MultiDrakeMaster That's your opinion. Clearly she has more of a life than you or me because while we're wasting our time posting comments on youtube, she's doing other things like practicing her singing. Anyway, is she religious or something?
@MultiDrakeMaster The likes and dislikes are about even. That means she was mediocre and just because so many people disliked this video doesn't mean she was bad.
She Is 12 ! .... 12 Years Old You People Who Are Sayin Terrible ! .. Of Course Her Voice Has Alot Of Maturing To Do .. But She Will Be A Greatt Singer I Gaurentee It .. I Hear The Strength In Her Voice.. She Sounds Pretty Damn Good For A 12 Year Old If You Ask Me
Ps The Show Is Called "America's Got Talent" Not "America's Best Singer" And This Kid Has Alot Of Talent
I don't get why they're comparing all these girl singers to Jackie anyways. They sing different styles of music, have different types of voices, all of that. It's almost apples and oranges...
uuh she definitely was a little wrong on some notes. But she is really talented, has a great voice and none of us knows how it is like to stand there and sing infront of judges and a lot of ppl watching. I think she did good.
@pingnwhs I had to look him up because I don't watch TV most days however judging by that audition he won’t make it past the semi-finals and DEFINATELY won't win. Sad fact is singers have won every season and AGT is looking to change that. I heavily favored Fighting Gravity last season from what I saw and by this season their looking to make that happen with Illuminate (Not the same thing but I won't argue that here). Shows are about ratings and that's it, it's called business.
okay guys listen up. i know this girl. she lives in my neighborhood and she is not all she is cut out to be. her family is full of liers and scammers. her dad whos age i do not know, made a website saying he is a 8 year old boy who has autism. so dont feel sorry for her because she says she is homeless. shes not. she lived in my friends rental house while they trashed it
@XXxHardStonexXX Proof? People have lied about events just to get on America's Got Talent because producers look for background so they can zoom in on. Hope you can provide proof!
@ZyanJarrett Okay. I have! I thought she was a wonderful singer! I NEVER thought she was lieing, I wanted Proof because people have lied just to get onto the show.
Also i don't like something about her attitude, "umm i think that when i make it to the next round, and when i do, i will....blah" --we can all guess who goes through
That is why i love the other contender Landau Eugene Murphy, Jr. for his humbleness and amazing voice.
I don't think this girl was that great. Kehlani and Anna are better singers. However, I did not like the judges comparing her to Jackie. You do not do that to a kid that young. And Sharon's comment sounds racist but really is not. What she meant was that Monet cannot afford singing lessons because her family lost their house. Nothing to do with her being black. Not everything is about race.
We dislike her because she's black. We don't judge on talent, vocal ability, skill or anything else and we base everything on skin color. If you listen to this with the volume ON you will understand what the judges said HOWEVER it was harsh in my opinion for a 12 year old. You had a 10 year old CLEARLY win this contest year but because she was white she didn't. Although every winner has been white and a singer…………..Makes me wonder.
I think she's a good singer, but not a fantastic singer. It's true she she did miss some notes and in my ears she sounded a bit flat, and like Piers, I think she has promise. However, Sharon really didn't have to say what she said about her not being able to afford lessons.
I really loved it. She's a great singer. How can she say that she doesn't like to compare, and do exactly just that? "Jackie could affors singing lessons and I don't think you could." What an awful thing to say to a child.....
So what if she was a little off key at the beginning? She fixed it and her passion in her singing is amazing! Such a strong voice! And comparing her to Jackie Evancho is wrong because they sing completely different types of music and have nothing to do with each other!
Ugghhh... I really wanted to like her from her story... Not the best... Well if she really trains, she can go onto American Idol (if it's still around) or the X-Factor in a few years because she really could become AMAZING with proper voice training because she has it. MAYBE SHARON CAN PAY FOR HER VOICE LESSONS...
Monet is on you tube....check her videos under Monet Rebirtha she is rather polished and mature. I believe her sound engineering was off on this video and her you tube accapella videos off a simple flip camera are much better than this poor song choice. You decide look her up!
@ZyanJarrett In her a cappela songs on YT you mentioned she is still pitchy. Yes, she misses plenty of notes. She really should get a voice teacher to help her with that, because she really does have some real, real wonderful & good voice qualities.
OMG has n e 1 cked out sharon's statement at 5:22. I am very surprised at sharon, but I guess I shouldnt be huh? She told this young lady that Jackie could afford singing lessons and she couldnt . WTF! What makes her think that? Do I really have to ask? TYPICAL
First of all, can Piers Morgan identify the notes that she missed? Does he even know anything about scientific pitch notation? What do these judges who are non-musicians, know about flat/sharp notes. I heard different versions, Whitney Houston's and Stephanie Mill's version they hit the highest note in the song, which was the G5 in head voice. This young lady did amazing and she sustained that belted C5 in the song. She has a great voice and I hope she makes it through.
@ThePianoguy89 You angery at Piers because he spoke the truth as he's supposed to? It doesn't matter if Piers or anyone can tell you the notes, all that matters is that she missed them. My ears aren't that great and even I knew she missed notes constantly in this song. Never the less, Monet has wonderful voice qualities and I hope she continues regardless of not making tonight. She'll be a great singer with more practice.
@crr1950 She only missed the highest note, which she purposely didn't want to do because maybe she wasn't able to hit it. I am a singer as well, Piers always saying that contestants are always missing the notes, in which some cases they don't. Just like Daniel Joseph Baker singing Edge ogf Glory, saying that he missing a couple of notes, he didn't. He was singing an octave lower. They don't really have mch of a professional critique, they just say it just to say it.
@ThePianoguy89 I don't go by what Piers said. I heard it myself a few times. Play your piano while she's singing and you'll see she misses more than just the higest note. I really like her though. She can and will improve as Carrie Underwood did. Carrie was pitchy at the start of AI, and with practice and lessons she improved dramatically. Monet will be real good some day..
@ThePianoguy89 Play the piano with the song when you get to one. I wouldn't be able to say which ones anyway as I don't kow the particular notes. Don't need to kow the notes to hear what's going on with them. For instance Jackie E couldn't ID the notes right now because she doesn't know them the names of them, however when singing acappela she can start every song on perfect pitch without hearing a note first--perfect pitch, and continue to sing perfectly-- as she has relative pitch too.
@ThePianoguy89 You need people like Piers to judge, because they don't know the technical part of all the acts, but saw a great variety of them and lots and lots of auditions, just like people at home watching this.
They KNOW what sells, belongs in mediocre, or in the trash.
@bhouri She has a great voice though and she does sound mature for a girl her age. Piers have to admit when he's wrong sometimes. She's young and she has plenty of time to grow as a vocalist.
@ThePianoguy89 i don't know much about music but i could hear she was off and flat in parts, but i can't tell you the name of the notes. I just know when it didn't sound quite right. i think it wasn't monet's best night, but she is dang good.
@ThePianoguy89 You don't need to be a musician to hear whether or not somebody sings in tune, you just need to have good ears. She really wasn't pitch perfect, although I agree that she has a good voice and could be a great singer in a couple of years if she gets voice lessons. Her comment that she is fully mature as a singer, at her age, shows that she really doesn't know about it, and that's what's holding her back.
@ThePianoguy89 EXACTLY "First of all, can Piers Morgan identify the notes that she missed? Does he even know anything about scientific pitch notation? What do these judges who are non-musicians, know about flat/sharp notes. I heard different versions, Whitney Houston's and Stephanie Mill's version they hit the highest note in the song, which was the G5 in head voice. This young lady did amazing and she sustained that belted C5 in the song. She has a great voice and I hope she makes it through."
I saw her performance in Vegas Week... OUTSTANDING! I think she just picked the wrong song to sing. Also, I don't think Sharon should have said, "Because Jackie could have afforded singing lessons, and you couldn't." I think Monet if she has singing lessons, she could be a very good singer.
why does everyone hate her so much.. my goodness.. shes a young girl with a dream... and i think she has a nice voice. And she came off as nothing less than a sweet person.. give her a freaking break!!!
@sowhat4555 you know at least she had the guts to try it out. dont be udging her cause i bet if you would perform in something your ´´good´´ at, not everyone will like it and you wouldnt like them making comments about you too! and you can say that you dont care what ppl say, but we all know you just say that to act tough.
@kiddycorn3 I believe it is inappropriate to say I don't think you could afford singing lessons .. what does that have anything to do with their judging and it doesn't have any relevance.. and phuk if they got a problem that she is less fortunate they got the money to help her.. phuk them and that comment..
@kiddycorn3 i hear what you're saying, but i think sharon was trying to stick up for monet because sharon thought piers made an unfair comparison...but i totally hear what you're saying. i just think it didn't come out quite right.
who the fuck is this? lol....Kind of unfair of how acts are promoted more than others (I'M LOOKING AT YOU SPLASHER MAN!) when it's completely undeserved.
@MissBleedBack Perhaps there are singers you have liked more than Jackie at her age, but please name one that is actually a better singer.
Keep in mind she is equal and superior to most top notch opera singers in the world in some aspects. For instance can you name anyone with a better passaggio? ..or portamento?
@MissBleedBack Has nothing to do with opera, I hate opera. You don't have kids more talent than Jackie where u live. Impossible, as they don't exist. Prince Poppy and all contestants could have sent in a video (was a round)like Jacki did, as that door was open for everybody, besides Jackie did audition in person but it didn't make TV. SAME rules for EVERBODY, so it was fair. Besides you have people here complaining that Monet wasn't shown enough before she sang. She was shown MORE than Jackie.
@MissBleedBack It doesn't matter where I live, I know there aren't any singers there better than Jackie for their age because Jackie has no equal in recorded history anywhere. No one is trying to get you to like Jackie, but just pointing out she is thousands of times better than you give her credit. I don't like all kinds of singers, but that doesn't mean they're not good. You are mistaking "good" and "preference" Jackie is a vocal Genius.. Period... and I hate her classical style.
Monet has SO much potential. :) With some voice lessons & when her voice matures a bit, she'll be Great. :) It would be nice to see her go through over Poplyfe because there are bands (that are) similar but they are WAY better.... So it would be nice to see Monet get another chance. :)
@roygeebivv Please explain where/when Jackie missed notes? I don't mean cracked notes or such as when she ran out of breath, but actual missed notes. I'm not saying she hasn't, but where did you hear the misses?
BTW, no one in history has never missed notes, yet they can be considered pitch perfect.
I remember when she sang Time to Say Goodbye and at one point she sounded flat to me (so not a "missed" note), honestly not a big deal, it didn't take away from the performance, but I didn't find it "pitch perfect". I understand that it is virtually impossible to hit every note, but when I consider the term perfect, I mean completely flawless.
@roygeebivv I'm not sure she missed any notes in that song. She cracked at the end for sure though when she ran out of gas.. But by your standands there's no such thing as pitch perfect because noone has been always perfect. Normally if Jackie starts a note a billionth off, she corrects it in a billionth of a second. She's very good. Jackie sings a capela and always hits the notes exact.
@HippEcat True KehLani missed a big note for sure.. really morethan one, but Monet missed tons of them. I think KehLani's song was a bit over her head (but maybe she just ran out of gas), whereas Monet just missed notes well within her range.
@HippEcat How is possible to tell how much heart either put into it? IMO part of the reason Jackie is so great is because she totally emerses heself in a song. Her heart is 110% into it. Jackie say she enjoys singing the type of music she sings rather than pop isbecause she is able to put more emotion into it. Anyway, I think it's impossible to measure one against the other in regard to "heart".
It was kind of rude of the judges to compare her to Jackie. 2 different genres,2 differents singers. I also think this was better than people put it out to be. I kind of enjoyed it honestly.
4 moving on should be-
1.Lys Agnes
2.Landau Murphy
3.Monet
4.Poplyfe
but that won't happen unfortunately so if it comes down to the last 2 then I hope Monet beats out Poplyfe.
@MichaelLovesMusic234 Of all the singers KehLani of Poplyfe may have been most on pitch. With Monet the most off, but she has a real nice voice qualities.
If she doesn't make it further than the joke that was Professor Splash, then there isn't hope for America. She's a kid. Give her a break. I doubt any of you all sounded like that at age 12.
@jdshark000 Unlike what Sharon suggested, Jackie had vey little lessons and was born pitch perfect. For certain Jackie is the most advanced singer for her age in recorded history. A true vocal genius. I like Monet a lot and wish her well, but she missed all kindsof notes in this performance. To make it to the next round she will have to be better, and not miss so many notes if she wants to continue on..
I think she sang that pretty well for someone who is only twelve and can't afford singing lessons. Even though I didn't vote for her, I still absolutely enjoyed this performance and I would like to see her come back on America's got Talent in a few years.

@crr1950 I don't have a piano with me right now because I am not at home, but what note she missed.
ThePianoguy89 7 months ago
@ThePianoguy89 Play the piano with the song when you get to one. I wouldn't be able to say which ones anyway as I don't kow the particular notes. Don't need to kow the notes to hear what's going on with them. For instance Jackie E couldn't ID the notes right now because she doesn't know them the names of them, however when singing acappela she can start every song on perfect pitch without hearing a note first--perfect pitch, and continue to sing perfectly-- as she has relative pitch too.

@ThePianoguy89 You need people like Piers to judge, because they don't know the technical part of all the acts, but saw a great variety of them and lots and lots of auditions, just like people at home watching this.
They KNOW what sells, belongs in mediocre, or in the trash.

@bhouri She has a great voice though and she does sound mature for a girl her age. Piers have to admit when he's wrong sometimes. She's young and she has plenty of time to grow as a vocalist.

ThePianoguy89 7 months ago
@ThePianoguy89 i don't know much about music but i could hear she was off and flat in parts, but i can't tell you the name of the notes. I just know when it didn't sound quite right. i think it wasn't monet's best night, but she is dang good.
cureloms 7 months ago
@ThePianoguy89 You don't need to be a musician to hear whether or not somebody sings in tune, you just need to have good ears. She really wasn't pitch perfect, although I agree that she has a good voice and could be a great singer in a couple of years if she gets voice lessons. Her comment that she is fully mature as a singer, at her age, shows that she really doesn't know about it, and that's what's holding her back.

@ThePianoguy89 EXACTLY "First of all, can Piers Morgan identify the notes that she missed? Does he even know anything about scientific pitch notation? What do these judges who are non-musicians, know about flat/sharp notes. I heard different versions, Whitney Houston's and Stephanie Mill's version they hit the highest note in the song, which was the G5 in head voice. This young lady did amazing and she sustained that belted C5 in the song. She has a great voice and I hope she makes it through."

I saw her performance in Vegas Week... OUTSTANDING! I think she just picked the wrong song to sing. Also, I don't think Sharon should have said, "Because Jackie could have afforded singing lessons, and you couldn't." I think Monet if she has singing lessons, she could be a very good singer.

@MissBleedBack Perhaps there are singers you have liked more than Jackie at her age, but please name one that is actually a better singer.
Keep in mind she is equal and superior to most top notch opera singers in the world in some aspects. For instance can you name anyone with a better passaggio? ..or portamento?
crr1950 7 months ago
@crr1950 There are a few really talented kids around where I live, they may not be opera singers, but they're great singers.
And Prince Poppycock was much better last year, and he was actually at the show from the beginning.
And please don't give me a big ass list of facts about how successful she was like the last person did.
MissBleedBack 7 months ago
@MissBleedBack Has nothing to do with opera, I hate opera. You don't have kids more talent than Jackie where u live. Impossible, as they don't exist. Prince Poppy and all contestants could have sent in a video (was a round)like Jacki did, as that door was open for everybody, besides Jackie did audition in person but it didn't make TV. SAME rules for EVERBODY, so it was fair. Besides you have people here complaining that Monet wasn't shown enough before she sang. She was shown MORE than Jackie.
crr1950 7 months ago
@crr1950 Um, do you live here? No.
So how the fuck do you know whats here and what's not?

MissBleedBack 7 months ago
@MissBleedBack It doesn't matter where I live, I know there aren't any singers there better than Jackie for their age because Jackie has no equal in recorded history anywhere. No one is trying to get you to like Jackie, but just pointing out she is thousands of times better than you give her credit. I don't like all kinds of singers, but that doesn't mean they're not good. You are mistaking "good" and "preference" Jackie is a vocal Genius.. Period... and I hate her classical style.
crr1950 7 months ago
Monet has SO much potential. :) With some voice lessons & when her voice matures a bit, she'll be Great. :) It would be nice to see her go through over Poplyfe because there are bands (that are) similar but they are WAY better.... So it would be nice to see Monet get another chance. :)

roygeebivv 7 months ago
@roygeebivv Please explain where/when Jackie missed notes? I don't mean cracked notes or such as when she ran out of breath, but actual missed notes. I'm not saying she hasn't, but where did you hear the misses?
BTW, no one in history has never missed notes, yet they can be considered pitch perfect.
crr1950 7 months ago
@crr1950
I remember when she sang Time to Say Goodbye and at one point she sounded flat to me (so not a "missed" note), honestly not a big deal, it didn't take away from the performance, but I didn't find it "pitch perfect". I understand that it is virtually impossible to hit every note, but when I consider the term perfect, I mean completely flawless.
roygeebivv 7 months ago
@roygeebivv I'm not sure she missed any notes in that song. She cracked at the end for sure though when she ran out of gas.. But by your standands there's no such thing as pitch perfect because noone has been always perfect. Normally if Jackie starts a note a billionth off, she corrects it in a billionth of a second. She's very good. Jackie sings a capela and always hits the notes exact.

@HippEcat True KehLani missed a big note for sure.. really morethan one, but Monet missed tons of them. I think KehLani's song was a bit over her head (but maybe she just ran out of gas), whereas Monet just missed notes well within her range.
crr1950 7 months ago

She has so much more heart than Jackie. I can actually sympathize with her. I want to see her show everyone how talented she is.
HippEcat 7 months ago
@HippEcat How is possible to tell how much heart either put into it? IMO part of the reason Jackie is so great is because she totally emerses heself in a song. Her heart is 110% into it. Jackie say she enjoys singing the type of music she sings rather than pop isbecause she is able to put more emotion into it. Anyway, I think it's impossible to measure one against the other in regard to "heart".
crr1950 7 months ago
It was kind of rude of the judges to compare her to Jackie. 2 different genres,2 differents singers. I also think this was better than people put it out to be. I kind of enjoyed it honestly.
4 moving on should be-
1.Lys Agnes
2.Landau Murphy
3.Monet
4.Poplyfe
but that won't happen unfortunately so if it comes down to the last 2 then I hope Monet beats out Poplyfe.

@jdshark000 Unlike what Sharon suggested, Jackie had vey little lessons and was born pitch perfect. For certain Jackie is the most advanced singer for her age in recorded history. A true vocal genius. I like Monet a lot and wish her well, but she missed all kindsof notes in this performance. To make it to the next round she will have to be better, and not miss so many notes if she wants to continue on..
