Can someone please explain this Chloe Kardashian outfit?

Good evening everyone.

Carly Rose could pass or 15!
Nice to see she’s not tarted up, though.

Could pass FOR 15, obviously

This really appears to be a two-horse race – I wonder who’s peaking at the right time?
Tate seems to have peaked too early in the competition – but he’s also had some resurgence. What do you guys think? Who’s taking this?

Carly Rose is a future superstar! I like Cassadee Pope but she can’t come close to Carly Rose vocally!

Squishy I think any one of the 3 could win. I don’t discount 5th Harmony!

Squishy, the Kardashian woman probably styles herself. Her idea of Junior League lunch outfit?

That two groups were in the competition a week ago speaks well for the future of groups, but I’m not convinced that they’re a serious contender to win this.

@Squishy, Groups have won in the UK and Australian versions. It’s hard to say who the young gals will vote for. Carly and 5th Harmony probably split votes and Tate wins.

Really?! That’s interesting, Dan. I didn’t realize that the Groups category had success elsewhere.
@Mercedes – Classic! Very funny.

Squishy, I was glad to see Chloe had red shoes on. Only mishap with the outfit is the blouse and the skirt is too short. Guess that means only good thing about the outfit are the red shoes (lolol).

Tate’s my pick – hands down. No doubt. I – of course – have nothing to base that on.

On the other hand, I think someone is forcing Tate to wear that stupid chain.

I’d also like to see L.A. Reid leave the show with a win under his belt.
DanJ

Tate was very good! His name on a water tower? Priceless!
Squishy

of course, I’d like to see the hosts, Brittany & Demi just leave the show… this show needs some serious retooling.
First rule – no red shoes & proportionally-inappropriate wardrobes…

@Squishy, It wouldn’t surprise me to see Simon having to fill all 3 seats!

More song repeats, like The Voice did last night.
Lauren Jauregui is the real star of 5th Harmony. Have to wonder if she won’t go single down the road.
Squishy

Oh man – fingers crossed, Dan!
Alright, Dan – let’s see how your Group does… I’m gonna reserve judgment.

Carly Rose SHOULD take it!!!!
There are 2 great singers in 5th Harmony. Still don’t know their names. Let me go with what the 2 are wearing.
(1) Wearing the tiara and (2) blue dress with gold necklace!
DanJ

Pitchy, Lauren, Camilla(Bow) & Dinah Jane are all good.
DanJ

Pitchy, Dinah Jane is wearing the blue dress and Lauren is wearing the tiara.

Two of the younger girls here tonight – really have grown to love 5th Harmony the past 2 weeks. The eyes of Texas are upon 5th Harmony & Ally Brooke.

Are there other female groups that are considered mainstream & popular? Seems like Hairy & the boys of One Direction are the only group that I can point to as being in the current spotlight… and you can thank Pepsi for that.
Pitchy

DanJ, I like the one with the bow as well, but Lauren and Dinah Jane has the best voice (to my ears).
They’ve come a long way.

Here’s Lauren’s original audition – when u get time.

Dinah Jane is probably the one that I think would have the best solo career!

Is Carly singing the song in the wrong pitch???
Pitchy
December 19th, 2012
8:57 pm
Mean, wrong note??? I love this song. So glad LRhimes is still. Hell, she doesn’t sound all that great herself.
DanJ

I’ve never really liked the duets much. LeAnn and Carly were not very good!
Mercedes S.

Didn’t the Rhimes woman start out as a thirteen-year-old too?
DanJ
December 19th, 2012
9:04 pm
@Mercedes, LeAnn was young! I think she was 15 or 16 though.
Seth T
December 19th, 2012

I think LeAnn Rimes was 14 when the mega-hit “Blue” was released.
Pitchy
December 19th, 2012
9:06 pm
Watching Carly sing with LeAnne reminded me of when LeAnne started with the same powerful voice.
Pitchy

I might be one of the few black women who love country music (lol).
Squishy

I’m a huge fan of the gold pants!
DanJ
December 19th, 2012
9:09 pm
@Mercedes- You were correct LeAnne was 13 when Blue was released! Congrats!
Mercedes S.
December 19th, 2012
9:09 pm
And look how LeAnne turned out…
Now, who are those two women with Tate?
Mercedes S.
December 19th, 2012
9:10 pm
And yes, the gold pants get points from me too. Of course, only with that kind of figure.
Squishy

Tate has this locked up – I’m pretty convinced. Of course, I thought the same thing last year with Josh…
Pitchy

Mercedes S., was that a dig to LeAnne Rhimes??
Mercedes S.
December 19th, 2012

Nice of Demi Lovato to dress down.
Mercedes S.

LeAnn’s had a great long career in country music, hasn’t she, Pitchy?
DanJ

I thought 5th harmony was better without Demi!
Seth T
December 19th, 2012
9:27 pm
One thing Demi’s performance just did though, was added some support from Demi’s fan club for 5th Harmony. Not a big thing, but not inconsequential.
Hallelujuh – I wonder how many have seen all the actual lyrics to this song.
