I disagree I do think Jackie has some stage presence! What ever stage presence "The Masked Singer" taught her, she has long been deprogrammed by her team/Mike.

What ever stage presence "The Masked Singer" taught her, she has long been deprogrammed by her team/Mike. Nah, she could still do it if she could wear the cat costume. Without it she's awkward especially when it comes to talking to the audience. She always was and hasn't improved very much in that area, but that's just Jackie. She should memorize what she's going to say between songs and stick with the script. The only people who would be aware are those that go to multiple concerts, but most people just go once. Talking between songs should come naturally, and like you suggested, it doesn't for her. She'd do better to not say anything except introduce the name of the song. Memorizing her comments would just invite flub-ups like she did on her memorized piano solo at Longwood Gardens. If she goes off script or forgets where she is, she'll get lost and make things worse. Ironically, Longwood Gardens in-betweens were actually pretty good, and they were scripted. The thing that made it look easy, though, was her host and a teleprompter. A teleprompter would be extremely weird at a concert, but I really think she needs someone or something to work off of – a band or a duo act/sidekick (like a conversational pianist, not just an accompanist) where she doesn't have to be the park-and-bark queen might set her at ease. She does seem to be more natural in her daddy-free interviews, so maybe she'll get better at stagecraft. Not holding my breath.

As far as Greg being popular, All Star has 1.1b streams on spotify. All Star was popular, but not because of Greg Camp. All Star was popular because of Steve Harwell and Smash Mouth. Greg Camp has had neither success nor popularity for the past 2 decades: Google Trends - Jackie, Greg Camp

She does seem to be more natural in her daddy-free interviews, so maybe she'll get better at stagecraft. Not holding my breath. It seems that she is awkward with some of her banter mostly because she can be a bundle of nerves on stage. At times, I think that she gets nervous because the Classical/Classical Crossover genre really isn't compatible with casual banter: "I'm gonna sing this song, the one where you probably heard of me first (giggle, giggle). I'm now going to perform for you "O Mio Babbino Caro". The giggles can spoil the moment, but she is trying to calm herself down. Other awkward moments come from the dumb OTTs in the front rows interacting with her while she's at the mic. "We Love You Jackie!!!!" (Gag me now) Those interactions are distracting and she doesn't really know how to handle them.

I don't know how she got Jenna Ortega to be in her video as she is so busy now. Sabrina is now part of Swift's posse of gal pals and perhaps Jenna wants an introduction. It doesn't hurt your career these days to be one of Taylor's bffs. Imagine the hoopla that would happen if Swift did an episode of Wednesday.

Other awkward moments come from the dumb OTTs in the front rows interacting with her while she's at the mic. "We Love You Jackie!!!!" (Gag me now) Those interactions are distracting and she doesn't really know how to handle them. Is it really worth going through all the years of aggravation and trotting because a fan shouted to her at a concert a decade ago or that her Father was present during an interview? Come on.

Um, what is the Father reference is about? Also what does trotting refer to? I've been to several Jackie concerts, and at several of the shows, more than one fan needs to get attention from Jackie by yelling something to her onstage. Have you been to any concerts?

Nice banner!

Yes a very nice banner but I think it is a few months to soon for that one. I don't even want to think about winter yet.
That looks perfect for the Holiday season.

All Star was popular, but not because of Greg Camp. I couldn't care less whether google determines that he is popular or not. Google does NOT determine if Greg Camp is popular or not. The PEOPLE determine if Greg Camp is popular by searching for his name. All Google does is count the searches. The fact that the search count is low contradicts your assertion that Greg Camp is popular - it seems that very few people care about Greg enough to bother to search for more information about him.

I couldn't care less about reality whether google determines that he is popular or not. Fixed it for you, no charge.
