As a classically trained singer, I find so much of pop singing really irritating. (Not that I love opera, but the folks who are screechy or really flat make me cringe. A lot.)<br /><br />However, I have to say I adore Randy. He's an insightful, kind, classy guy. He's exactly the kind of tactful professional I want to work with.Laurel Garverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03657218435228802535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19177238389402380.post-82415610848266659502010-01-28T12:38:58.006-05:002010-01-28T12:38:58.006-05:00I would definitely choose Ellen.I would definitely choose Ellen.Miranda Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00479324010424718024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19177238389402380.post-12813181908437634442010-01-28T12:22:36.805-05:002010-01-28T12:22:36.805-05:00Heidi: Hilarious what you say about Randy.

LOL<br /><br />I also agree about Simon-every contestant wants his praise because it means more than anything. <br /><br />So far, Randy is winning. :0) I think I would choose him too.Kristi Faithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17527544253341529009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19177238389402380.post-12928217901619935852010-01-28T10:39:41.901-05:002010-01-28T10:39:41.901-05:00Randy all the way.

And while he's wrong every now and then, for the most part he knows his stuff better than anyone. Ir he says you're gonna make it, you know you have a pitbull in your corner.<br /><br />But I don't think I could work with him without killing myself.<br /><br />Kara I just don't trust. She seems to go on her emotions a lot rather than judging based on facts. And I think she'd care more about herself than her clients.<br /><br />Ellen - that would be like having your best friend as your agent: great for laughs and the ego, but without the ability to guide you or the connections to make things happen. Although a car might be cool.<br /><br />So Randy is the one I'd take, I think. He has the best qualities of all three in a more balanced package. I'd just have to grit my teeth if he kept calling me Dawg. :)Heidi Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420802651029097379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19177238389402380.post-8254201440878438082010-01-28T10:16:11.635-05:002010-01-28T10:16:11.635-05:00I'm gonna' go with Ellen.

I need a nice combination of both.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07570437173288571934noreply@blogger.com
