Enrique played live. Kept pulling his ear piece out, Something must be going wrong in the back area. No understanding why he had autotune running the whole time.
Miley Cyrus on Next, Her voice was off a bit also, look on Miley’s face was fear and confusion, or she felt poorly. I’m certain something is messed up in the back area.
Ditty dirty Money, singing something where the chorus says the kingdom has forgiven of mistakes but…. dirty money ? what ever, sounded okay.
