Duffy's eyebrows !!

[joggerjayne]

I've just been out for my Guardian.

On the front page, there's a close up of Duffy (God knows why!).

Cripes, guys !!!!! ... Have you seen those eyebrows ???

And her jawline !!!

Is she a man in drag?

If not, then she needs to spend more time at the salon.

[logic]

Frankly my dear, I dont give a damn,

What do they say about looking on the mantlepiece whilst you are poking the fire,?

[joggerjayne]

Logic ... thank you for that, erm, erudite contribution.

=0)

[logic]

Jayne I must admit it is not erudite. :-(

I'm so glad that Lottie has come out against Duffy's voice. It is truly horrible, and the fact she's been showered with awards confirms the country is in mass hypnosis regarding this overrated artist. Nails on blackboard, yes... with elements of a Diddyman being slowly strangled, or Orville being tortured. How can anyone say she has a "great voice"? When she does that drawn-out, false-sounding vibrato in Rain On Your Parade, she sounds like a bad Jimmy Saville impersonation. Oh but of course she sounds a bit RETRO and that's SO cool isn't it? Proof that millions of people CAN be wrong.

Ah well, never mind - balance will be restored when her career is wheezing its dying breath, probably around the time of her 3rd album when we've all woken up and cottoned on to the fact she's rubbish.

Aww, JimT ...

Now I'm starting to feel sorry for her ...

... despite her eyebrows !

I like her voice.

[LoftyLottie2]

Hooray for Jim T - the voice of reason. Her voice is strained to sound like that. It is not her natural voice at all. It is absolutely horrible!!

Elbow were robbed. Now that is music!!

[cazzz1975]

Im not a fan of duffy and her eyebrows are a bit iffy, not as bad as the awful eyebrows that madonna had in 1986

[zzxxee]

i think shes quite pretty very brigette bardot

[JimT]

Why, Jayne? Why? By definition you must also like the sound of air escaping from a lilo!

I'm the other way around - I don't mind the eyebrows.

Sometimes when I don't like something, I at least think, well I can see why so many people do. With the Duffer, I just don't see how anyone with a working set of ears can find that thin weedy voice any good. And as a live performer - she's stiff & wooden and the voice, exposed and unadorned, is even worse. The let's-go-for-the-60s-sound just seems mechanical and cynical. Some of those things you can argue are opinions, but she HAS got a thin nasal wobbly voice that sounds even worse live - fact. And yet she's garlanded with awards. It's mass hysteria.

[JimT]

I also disagree about her looks zzxxee - she looks too terrified to move in case a strand of hair or a molecule of make-up goes awry. Nice legs though.

Nah, that swearing Florence red head woman is a gazillion times more attractive and sexy than the Duffster.

[LoftyLottie2]

I don't like her lipstick either ! ;o)

[Robinia]

I think we've got the message JimT, you don't rate her

I think she's fabulous, distinctive voice and looks, eyebrows & all!! Mercy was the first song in years that made me stop what I was doing to listen the first time I heard it.
Well done girl! (even tho' I hate awards thingies)

[Robinia]

oi Lottie, want me to give you a fat lip? ;o)

[LoftyLottie2]

I didn't mind Mercy, Robinia and yes, it was distinctive - but she should have stopped there!! ;o)

A whole album of blackboard scraping, nooooooooooooooooooooooooo ............................

(I used to like Bonnie Tyler)

[JimT]

Okay, apart from the nice legs, one other positive thing - Warwick Ave is a good song, and quite a compelling video. If she ever gets an acting gig and is required to cry, she'll be away. (Take up acting, give up the 'singing' - hmmmmm.....)

But in all other respects - see previous comments.

[chinadog]

Nothing wrong with Duffy. She can write songs.she's attractive with a decent figure, she never mimes and one of the best welsh singers to boot. Her brows looked fine to me btw.

[Aimee-Duffy]

thank you chinadog.
