Dreamgirls Lights Up the Oscars

February 26, 2007

It's hard to pick our favorite part of the Oscars but watching the fabulous Dreamgirls' performances reminded me of how much I enjoyed that movie. While Jennifer Hudson looked amazing belting out those tunes, Beyonce proved you don't need an Oscar to prove your talent. She is clearly quite the performer. We just wondered where were Eddie and Jamie?

Jennifer naturally has a strong voice and it seemed like Beyonce was trying to up her game and I think both performed really well. Many of you might not agree with me but I thought Anika was just shouting into the microphone. And I think the guy who played CC is sooo adorable!! I began crushing on him after seeing him in the movie :-)

Beyonce is so talented. Her performance was amazing! J-Hud was good, but clearly not in the same league as B. The dresses were gorgeous too! Loved it!!:-)

Jennifer's singing seemed more natural and effortless and Beyonce was pulling her voice out of her during 'Listen.' She was doing way too many riffs or "Ahahahahhaaaaa!"

This performance was merely a belting competition between Beyonce and Jennifer. Jennifer brought it in the first part and Beyonce I could tell tried a lot harder.

It would be only natural for Bee to be a lil jealous, I would be too.

i don't think beyonce is super jealous of jennifer, and i think she's happy for her, but can you really believe that she wasn't upset that jennifer outshined her in every possible way? i find tht hard to swallow. this was supposed to be HER movie but j.hud stole the spotlightanyways i thought the performance was good but a little annoying

I liked Bee last night, Its just that lately she is so overexposed. I thought she was gracious torwards Jen, I did NOT feel any tension at all.

I don't understand why people are always trying to find things to hate about Beyonce... seriously, it's ridiculous. I think she did a great job performing, and I actually like her better than Jennifer Hudson.

RCL..she did overprerform. Just trying to outshine Jennifer. It's a shame.

I thought Beyonce over-performed a bit last night. Of course, she always does, but I'm sure she was a tinge jealous of Jennifer's Oscar.

Eddie did sing that song in the movie, but on the soundtrack, he did not perform it - so I think that's why he didn't perform it on the show - I'm sure he stayed, even if he didn't win, he doesn't seem like a poor sport.I think the girls, were awesome, I loved the POWERFUL voices and attitudes that they displayed

I loved Beyonce's performance dress, and actually all three of their red dresses. It was sort of annoying to see Beyonce and J Hud try to outsing each other rather than complimenting each other's voices. There was just no warmth coming from that stage, which was unfortunate since it could have been earth-shaking.

wow, another reminder of why my singing is limited to inside my car when i am alone. powerful, beautiful and makes me wish i could sing! the third girl (sorry i don't know her name) is so cute (and tiny)! she sounded lovely too. as for eddie, someone said on the live chat last night that he left when he didn't win. did that turn out to be true?

I thought Beyonce's voice sounded thin and weak compared to Jennifer's. I mean, Beyonce has a decent voice, but I don't think she is as good of a singer as I think SHE thinks she is.

For those of you saying Beyonce proved you don't need an Oscar to be talented..ummm, she was SINGING. Her being a talented singer has NOTHING to do with the Oscar. She could been up for the Oscar for "writing" Listen but she lied about that.

People always wanna find some sorta beef with these two. Eddie and Jamie weren't singing because they were not featured on either of those 3 songs in the movie. I loved the performance.

They sounded a lot better when they weren't shouting over each other. Beyonce sang Listen perfectly. She gave me goosebumps. And for once, I liked her dress.
