    Default This Asian Girl Is on Iphone!

    Saw this on youtube. I was skeptical at first but wow, she can sing like Beyonce.

    Not to mention, she's pretty cute. Like the fact she did it with those iphones.

    Her voice is good.
    But it's not like the most awesome thing ever - she sounds like most of the top 12 on American Idol right now.
    With a bit vocal coaching, she could definitely become a really good singer though.
    Because I'm somewhere in between,
    My love and my agony.

    What made it impressive for me was how it lead up to the singing part. It starts off with her little cute accent voice, then as she starts singing she just transform to something else. I agree that she has room for improvement.

    I skipped through the weird iPhone stuff, which may lessened the effect for me. But pure vocals speaking, I agree - she's good, but definitely can improve.

    Very nice. It seemed to take forever for her to actually start singing, though.

    No wonder. Yea the beginning was funky but I like it because it was like "What is she doing?!!!" And then it all comes together at the end. Kinda cool. I had trouble understanding her accent at the beginning haha.

    Yes. I haven't paid much attention to her recent work (with the exception of Telephone), but from what I remember of her Destiny's Child days and her earlier solo career, she has a very nice voice. Not the best, of course, but pretty good (especially compared to the majority of her peers).

    I doubt that it is really her singing. Her speaking voice sounds wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy different than when she "sings". I believe she's lipsynching. When you hear a singer, speak you can still hear what their singing voice would sound like. And there's no way her speaking and her singing voice can be that drastically different.

    At first I thought that. But when I compare it to the real Beyonce, I can notice the difference.. Even during her singing, her accent shows up slightly. So I am pretty sure it's her real singing.

    It is her singing. There is a bit of an accent and she's a bit pitchy at times.

    That's nice.

    I'm curious about the app she's using.

    Here's her Pokerface rendition. Lots of intro so it really starts at 1:30.
