Does it bother anyone else that most of these "choirs" are acting more like backup singers?
LaBelle's choir has energy and emotes a LOT of emotion...BUT if you're just adding background to soloists and then singing most of it in unison, that's not what I call a strong choral performance in terms of demonstrating what a chorus can and should do. It can backfire on you though...as it did last night when one of her soloists forgot the words, didn't improvise and choked. Been there done that. :)
Lachey's choir as done the most real choral singing of the bunch (though I missed the last half of Wednesday's show so there may have been some others that have stepped up). I'd heard of the choral version of Bumblebee but never heard it until last night. And to do one in a capella with so little practice...wow. Nice work!
Oh...one more thing. I know the other celebrities are being gratious with their comments but...where's Simon Cowell when you need him? :)
