What is with females singers and the chicken dance? I'm starting to see it way too often. It appears to come with the other ridiculous epidemic: Shoes with 5" heels. No wonder these women can't walk across a stage with ease. Are those shoes really necessary? How many times do they have to visit orthopedic doctors?
The latest chicken dance siting was on Good Morning America. Nicole Scherzinger performing this morning did an abbreviated version, which amounted to a few steps to the viewers left. The move entailed walking across the stage as if you were tiptoeing in a Bugs Bunny cartoon while simultaneously moving the head front to back to mimic the walk of a chicken crossing the road. (no joke will follow)
Focus on the white chicken in this video.
The ultimate grande dame of chicken dancing is Carrie Underwood. I saw her open for Keith Urban a few years ago and she was all over the stage looking like she was ready to lay an egg. The move starts one minute into this video:
Lose the shoes and lose the dance. Have fun on stage. Do not be beholden to a 5" heel.
In this case, don't break a leg.

Friday Morning Music Wars
Kenny Chesney wins.
On Friday mornings I tune into the three network morning shows to see who's performing.
CBS is perpetually struggling to come remotely close to GMA or Today. I think they hit rock bottom today. It's not because the music they had was bad, it's just that Jennifer Hudson was on GMA last week! They couldn't have a exclusive? There is so much music out there. Why not try something completely different? Not much is expected of them so they can experiment. Make a positive statement. They message I'm getting is we're so low on the totem pole, we can only get guests that have already played the other shows the week before. Yikes.
Good Morning America had the Disney girl, Selena Gomez. Makes sense. ABC is part of the Disney World, she has a new movie and album out. Lots of young girls in the audience with their parents. There's nothing new here.
Kenny Chesney is a seasoned performer. It showed in his Today performance. He puts on a show.

Friday Morning Music: Semi Live
Friday means live music on all the morning shows. Today it appeared that during a dance number on Good Morning America, Demi Levato lip synced in Central Park. She danced her heart out, but unless there was some weird tape delay and audio problems, the vocal was off from what was coming out of her mouth. Same goes for Ke$ha on the Today Show. There were not many close ups of her singing. You didn't hear one breath from either performer, whether she was dancing with an Indian headdress on or doing Pete Townsend like windmills. Later on GMA Demi did sing live with the Jonas Brothers. The Brothers were live for all their performances. On CBS Train performed and they were live.
The girls in the audience were have a great time at both Ke$ha and the Jonas Brothers. The crowd was a bit older at Train and there were a lot more males in attendance. The take away from this: these women can't sing and dance at the same time and the men don't even try it.
