Julie Delpy trashes Beyonce's Oscars performance
[They should do away with the song part of the Academy Awards. It's the most boring part of the show and this year's was a total disaster. First that Spanish guy got all pissed off because he couldn't do his own song and now the French are annoyed at us (nothing new there, but still...)]
http://thetrack.bostonherald.com/sta...rticleid=73959 Julie to Beyonce: Hit the chemin By Inside Track Friday, March 18, 2005 - Updated: 12:00 PM EST JULIE DELPY was not a fan of Beyonce's Academy Awards rendition of "Vois Sur Ton Chemin"' from the French film, "Les Choristes."' "Beyonce singing in French - she sounds like she's singing in Chinese. I swear to God, to French people watching that, it was like being stabbed in the heart," the French-born "Before Sunset"' actress told Empire at its annual awards bash. "It was like she was paid by (President) Bush to sing badly in French." She may be onto something: Paging Michael Moore! |

yeah, I didn't get that either. if you're gonna take a cheap shot, at least have it make sense :hscratch: |
Does anyone really care what she has to say?

It was a pretty lame line, but it seems to me that it refers to the strained relations and even antagonism between the U.S. and France over the last few years. I'm a li... I mean progressive, and I have a pretty negative image of the French.

Well besides sexual advances toward you. |
Aww, man. I just realized I've been confusing Julie Delpy and Juliette Binoche for a long time.
|
Francais? Je parle un peteite peu, avec... I thought her singing (of that particular song) was atrocious.
|
Her comments are probably justified. I'm sure Beyonce singing a french song in french was to the french the equivalent of William Hung singing anything in english to us. Plus - beyonce sucks.

That Celine, always stirring up shit!

Julie Delpy was in American Werewolf in Paris..hehehe
|
So, the real question is....
....after hearing that song, how many French surrendered? Seriously, it probably would have been good to get someone who knew the language to sing the song. |

For those of you who think the song wasn't bad or this is blown out of proportion there was another thread about it with quite a few people hating on her singing of the song. http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...beyonce+oscars

It was goddam awful. Let me quote myself:
My sister-in-law was putting my nephew to bed and I was in the bathroom, so we both missed the presentation and the beginning of that song. So, I get back to the living-room, sit down and start watching and immediately go "what the f*** is she signing and what frigging language is that?". At which point my sister-in-law enters the living-room and I ask: "What is she singing?". To which she replies: "I think that's the song from "Les Choristes". I went: "Is she singing in french???". She said: " I guess...". Note that both of us are french speaking and neither one of us could make out a single french word during the entire song. She might as well have been singing in Swahili. |

Are you kidding? |
I was just annoyed that virtually EVERY song had to be done by Beyonce.
