i favor criticism on Opera Stars when they are off stage. But I would never boo a singer while making all that effort to sing properly. There are singers, even very famous ones, I loathe hearing them singing. I choose not to attend their concerts.

Operatic Audiences are Atrocious - much worse than football match audiences

Opera is the Football of the Gays :)

if I cracked or got booed onstage I would probably drop dead :))

I remember listening to the famous Fleming boo in la Scala and the way managed to maintain a perfect voice throughout the boos - I mean how can u not break - a friend of mine had said: If I had heard 1/100 of the boos she heard I would have run off stage

@sopranosd yep!

I agree -- you have to be a little scared before you go on, or you are not taking yourself or your work seriously enough. I'm not talking paralytic fear, just a little case of nerves. It keeps a performer on his toes. Stage fright is different -- it is overwhelming. You can use your anxiety to propel you onto the stage, and once the lights hit your face, or you say or sing your first line, you get into your groove.
