Jason Derulo Mumbles On ‘Regis & Kelly’

Published: Friday 1st Oct 2010 by Trent

Jason Derulo made a promotional appearance on ‘Live with Regis & Kelly’ recently. The usually auto-tuned artist performed his new single, ‘What If’, for the studio audience. Check out the performance below:

That was a catastrophe. Derulo was out of breath and literally gasping for air throughout the entire performance. Additionally, he mumbled all of the lyrics to the point that it was almost impossible to understand what he was trying to sing.

Derulo has a bad habit of blaming his horrendous showings on mic problems or simply being overwhelmed by ‘rigorous’ choreography but it’s clear that he is simply a terrible singer. He could barely hold a single note that entire performance! At least when Rihanna is bleating out the words of her songs we could understand what she’s saying (regardless of how painful it is to listen to her voice).

Derulo needs to decide if he wants to be a serious vocalist or just a studio artist. If the latter is the case then he should just dance and lip-sync like Keri Hilson because his live vocals are simply unacceptable.

Now sit in the corner and think about what you’ve done Derulo.

Thoughts?

    I saw this yesterday and knew it would be posted heree on TGJ. It was the worst I’ve ever seen from an artist. Why does this man even have a record deal?

  2. Mikeyy October 1, 2010

    I kinda feel bad for the poor guy, because I’m sure this is him giving his ALL, 110% and truthfully it just doesn’t cut it. There are so many things wrong with this performance than I can’t even focus of anything positive.

    He needs to lip sync and leave the ballads to Trey and Neyo.

    can’t wait til CB comes back with another album and slays this lame.

    talent really isn’t necessary anymore, is it? smh.

  8. CC October 1, 2010

    His voice sounds so fake and nasal, not to mention he was off key, hitting the wrong notes, and it was difficult to hear what he was saying.

    Other than that, it was a great performance! lol

  9. spring October 1, 2010

    ughhh! dat was horrible…
    Poor thing..

  10. kw October 1, 2010

    Kinda feel bad for the dude, not sure why but I do, I am sure that is one performance that will be deleted from his DVR. asap

  11. Ms.T October 1, 2010

    that performance was terrible,he has one of the worst voices i ever heard

  12. genes October 1, 2010

    Trent knows that if he mentions Rihanna’s name he will get more than 200 comments….Jason should quit now he has enough money for atleast 2 years….the guy can’t sing for shittttttt,he is not even goodlooking….

  13. wow October 1, 2010

    That was sad.

  14. LJ October 1, 2010

    99999999 THIS BOY CAN DANCE, BUT THIS SONG WAS A MESS.(((((((((((((((((((((( COME ON NOW HOW DID HE GET SIGNED???????????

  15. Soulful Roses October 1, 2010

    My eyes didn’t deserve this…. 🙁

  16. KRS088 October 1, 2010

    The boy can’t dance or sing. Where did he come from and what record label is he on. This dude is awful.

  17. Kris J October 1, 2010

    jason sounded like s***!! oh my goodness. i bet the lyrics were nice judging from the music but i couldn’t hear them.

    jason is a trained dancer and should have done a fast song with choreography. i think he should avoid the slow songs until he has had time to work on his live vocals.

  18. meme October 1, 2010

    WTF was that? I couldn’t understand a damn thing AND what’s with the “ha” every 3 words. He’s the worst!

  19. X,Y,”and Z” October 1, 2010

    During his interview with Sam, right here on TGJ, Jason Derulo then laughed at CBreezy, y’all remember that? …I do!

    …And now this performance by Mr. Derulo, it leaves me with “a renewed confidence in the world”; karma is what I believe it’s called…!!!

    First, Trey Songz. Now, Jason Derulo; soon-to-follow, Justin Bieber…!!!
    (Drake, you’ll have to wait your turn!)

    X,Y, “and Z”

  20. EDIDION October 1, 2010

    that gif!!! DEAD DEAD DEAD DEAD!!! I CANNOT
    JASON SOUNDED TERRIBLE HE TRIED TO DO RUNS THE WHOLE TIME N IT DIDNT WORK..HE CAN SING BUT THIS AINT HIS BEST

  21. Jeffrie October 1, 2010

    OMG dude is horrible. Where is CB when you need him

  22. tweetypiebabe1 October 1, 2010

    And this is why I would never see him live. He can sing and he can carry a note but I just don’t like how he sounds live…it’s horrible the embellishments he does and his faces…his diction is terrible!! You can’t understand a world he’s saying!!

  23. Blasian October 1, 2010

    ewww he is soooo UGLY!

  24. Blu Majik October 1, 2010

    Aw Miss Derulo! She should become a Coco Dorm model. At least she’ll be more successful!

  25. MrIncredible October 1, 2010

    What an atrocity!

  26. NICKY October 1, 2010

    CB BETTER TAKE NOTES FROM TREY , JASON AND JUSTIN BIEBER!!!!!!!

    THIS WAS AN OKAY PERFORMANCE….HE HAS TO WORK ON HIS FALSETTO BUT OTHER THAN THAT WAS GOOD!!!!!!!!

    3 TOP 10’s and 2 #1 pop hits and #1 billboard hit

    He’s doing pretty good!!!! SORRY CB!

  27. Dani October 1, 2010

    OMGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HORRIBLE!

  28. sam October 1, 2010

    WHAT THE HELL IS THIS HORRIBLE , TALENTLESS, STUPID writer talking about? he didnt mumble the words he was putting passion into his performance, this is why he sounded like he did, he feels the songs and gets emotional. This writer should be sacked!

  29. sam rb October 1, 2010

    JASON DERULO CAN SING! i admit this is not his best performance however he has talent, he can sing and dance!….just needs to work on his vocals abit in live performance….and for those of you who said ‘why has this boy got a record deal’ ermmmmmmm well hes had 2 number one singles so far, sold over a million albums and earned buluga heights ( his record label) alot and i mean alot, of money! he performed on american idol… and it was amazing!!!! check it out!

  30. Truth October 1, 2010

    You all are just followers…..the media and blogs control your minds. I’m not much of a Jason derulo fan but the guy did not sound as bad as you all made to be. Get real and make your own minds up.

  31. Bam Bam October 1, 2010

    @Sam please give up aint nothing u can say to make that performance even halfway good the only reason you should be ou of breath while singing a ballad is because you just transitioned from an uptempo song right before this a mess and he needs to do better

  32. vegasgirl October 1, 2010

    Why the F*** does he sing like that? He chooses to sound out of breath because that is his vocal style. From the first note to the last I strongly disliked that and I think the kid has pipes but he chops and screws the vocals up.

    And I blame Kara DiaGuardo (formerly of American IDol) for this s*** because she signed him and Iyaz…. I really hate her right now. Note to ALL contemporary singers ( but especially this kid), knowing how to do runs and hit some falsetto notes does not qualify as singing. Why does he make me hate him so much?…I already don’t like his face, now I’m beginning to dislike his voice with every live performance and song on the radio.

    He can do better but that was pretty horrible.

  33. Robier October 1, 2010

    SIMON COWELL WOULD HAVE SLAUGHTERED HER. SHE NEEDS WORK BUT IN THIS ‘DO WHAT EVER’ ERA SHE WILL BE IIGHT CAUSE THIS GENERATION DOESN’T CARE FOR TALENT….. THEY DO GIMMICKS

  34. Tru Voice October 1, 2010

    WHAT THE F*CK WAS HE SAYING!!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!???!? That was horrible. He needs to work on diction, soundes like a bunch of mumbles and moaning. The Bridge of the song really put the nail in the coffin. LIKE WTF???? That autone would have came in habdy here so we could understand wat the hell he was saying. A slow sing is how you really tell if someone has “THE VOICE” which he does not. Usher is #1 in R&B males right now, and has been for years.

  35. Lil CiCi October 1, 2010

    @ Nicky

    SIT! Jason Derulo proves to be untalented. As this video shows. CHRIST BROWN would NEVER.

  36. VA STAND UP!! October 1, 2010

    Damn Trent! When you make up your mind that you don’t like someone you really stick with it don’t you? Lol! You guys are ruthless!

    After watching this performance I see why ya’ll clown dude so hard. He really is horrible. I am almost starting to feel bad for him cause you can tell he tries so hard. He really takes himself seriously but no one else does. Anyone who ever said that thus dude had taken CB’s spot should feel real stupid right about now. Jason proves he is not worthy if being mentioned in the same sentence of CB everytime he hits the stage.

    When CB drops his new material it will seal the lid in Jason’s coffin. His few lil hits wasn’t enough to cement his spot, especially with these horrible ass performances. You can have as many hits as you want but if you can’t back that up with some solid performances then you won’t last long. Especially if you were only getting some shine while someone else was down and out.

    Sorry JD, but now that CB is getting his stride back you are no longer needed and its time for you to fade back into the background and just be a writer. Hope you enjoyed your lil bit of shine while it lasted.

  37. I & I (yardie style) October 1, 2010

    lmao @ some of these comments. This was tragic though. Trent next time please put up the warning “Listen at your own risk”

  38. Bee October 1, 2010

    It wasn’t that that bad – still very bad though especially the ending.

    I don’t have time for this ish though “Oh Santa” was just released 😀

  39. Keesha October 1, 2010

    I didn’t even bother watching this performance. Anyway, the “Deuces” remix just came out. I had to listen to it to a few times though. I pretty good though.

  40. Keesha October 1, 2010

    I meant *It’s*

  41. Carmello October 1, 2010

    WTF

    Who the hell signed this dude????????????/

    I’m done with this guy.

  42. True Blue October 1, 2010

    WHAT. THE. F*** WAS THIS MESS???

  43. XXOO October 1, 2010

    WHEN HE GOT TO THE BRIDGE….OH MYYYYYYY

  44. harvey October 1, 2010

  45. JD86 October 2, 2010

    What was that was he trying to sound like Michael Jackson with all those sounds? What mess. Thank GOD for Chris Brown. ***Runs and listens to Dueces***

  46. HATIN IS FOR SUCKAS October 2, 2010

    This no talent lame again. Jason give up your down. [Then someone got the nerve to say CB needs to take notes] from this guy never Jason needs to take notes from CB.

  47. GROW UP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!! October 2, 2010

    LORD HELP YOU. YALL STILL DELETING OR CHANGING MY COMMENTS.

    THE KID IS TRYING REALLY REALLY HARD SO I HAVE TO RESPECT HIM FOR THAT.

    TRENT U ARE STILL A PRESSED NEGRO LIKE I SAID EARLIER. CANT KEEP THAT GIRLS NAME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH. U REALLY NEED A TAMPON. U R ONE SILLY B****

  48. ~AalexisR~ The Summer King (The Bahamas) October 2, 2010

    Keri has only been caught lipping once. Where the eff did you get this idea from that she lip syncs on the regular?

  49. Cameron October 2, 2010

    I really Like Jason, I believe he really gives his all during his performances but it’s just not working for him. He tries hard and his work ethic is great but the vocals are lacking big time, it’s like he’s forcing himself to sing in a key that’s just not natural to him and it’s to the point were you just STOP the video or turn the channel. At least whenever Rihanna is singing, it’s tolerable & interesting. I really hope he gets Hardcore Vocal Training because I really like him as an artist, he seems like a cool person also and I hate to see him fail.

  50. what? October 2, 2010

    Derulo cannot sing period. Ok, he has 3 hits, well Taio Cruz has 2 hits and another on the way in the states. In fact, Taio sounds better than him live. For all that radio support in the states, he is not even at 300,000 albums sold. He should have Kesha numbers with all that radio support. Why does she sell singles and albums and he can’t? Kesha can’t sing that well, but she has an image that interests people. Derulo lacks the charisma to make up for his lack of singing talent, and people are not motivated to buy his cd even with all that radio support. He will never be Usher, Timberlake, etc…I wish him the best but a singer he is not.

  51. what? October 2, 2010

    at least there is Bruno Mars, Pop and RnB dude that can really sing….sigh…

  52. Kathy October 2, 2010

    Blasian, does that mean you’re black and asian? If so, what nationality are you?

  53. Imanni October 2, 2010

    Hey what happened to the GIF its not showing.

  54. daseekah October 2, 2010

    i think im seeing something totally different from you guys. It’s not that bad. i think it’s just his style of singing

  55. Mike October 2, 2010
