Kelly Rowland & Michael Buble Serve Up A ‘White Christmas’ (Performance)

Published: Monday 19th Dec 2011 by Sam

Tis the season to be jolly, and with Christmas around the corner, R&B diva Kelly Rowland got into the festive spirit with jazz megastar Michael Buble.

The ‘Motivation’ singer teamed up with the award-winning crooner for his ITV special (which aired last night), delivering a silky smooth rendition of Holiday classic ‘White Christmas’.

Peep the performance after the jump…

 

Rowland and Buble showed great camaraderie, blending their vocals almost seamlessly. Great, controlled, performance.

    After seeing this performance and remembering the “river deep, mountain high” she did on the x factor, i’m thinking Kelly should consider exploing different styles of music than the ones she has been doing on her album.
    She is actually a really good singer and more versatile than I thought…

    Love it, made me think of their two voices already blending perfectly on “How deep is your love…”

    I’ve never heard Kelly’s live vocals so good. O_o

  5. Leon December 19, 2011

    She didnt struggle nor have pitch issues as usual, i agree with Steph – maybe she should try other genres.

    Gwan Miss Rowland!

    There’s nothing the amazing Ms. Kelly can’t do!!!!

    My favorite performer in music at the moment!!!

  9. Misfit December 19, 2011

    This performance was like the brandy spiked, hot apple cider, I had while watching it…. Delicious with a kick!
    They were great.

    This was a vocal performance not a visual performance so naturally she is going to sound great. I’ve heard her sing just as good and better on other vocal performances. The problem is people judge Kelly’s vocals on her mainstream visual performances where she is dancing and jumping up and down. She usually opts to sing live versus 95% of others lip sync. In the history of music, you can count on one hand the amount of people who were able to sing live while doing a dance routine and have a flawless vocal. Her sister isn’t one of them because she lip syncs just as much as pop artist. Kelly is one of the best singers out today. However, in the genre(s) she does people want to see her dance and work the stage not stand there and sing. I can barely dance and not be out of breath so I can imagine the kind of control doing both takes so big props to kelly!

  11. IMO December 19, 2011

    What is with all the Amazing Kelly, Queen Kelly, Bad ass boss b**** Kelly… Can you please stop!!!

    All this praise for one good performace. She should be killing EVERY performance, she has been doing it 15 years!

    It was a good vocal… there was no ‘Killing’ anything

  12. BAA December 19, 2011

    @Jason…..Sit downsomewhere! Clearly ur delusional because her sister can do bac flips and while singing; just saying. U dont know anything about singing and why the hell are u bring her up anyway; PRESSED? Anyway Kelly did great! I never doubted Ms Kelly never because i always knew what she can do. She sounded clear and crisp! Kelly can become a staple n music for her voice because the girl can sing!

  13. pat December 19, 2011

    kelly sounds fantastic…she’s always had the best tone out of destiny’s child

  14. IMO December 19, 2011

    @Steven ” Kelly is one of the best singers out today” <<< You're kidding me, right? She's up there with Beyoncé, Christina Aguilera, Alicia Keys, Brandy…

    Kelly falls miles short of the best singers out there.

  15. TruthTeller December 19, 2011

    Poor Kelly Rowland,
    XFactor performances & TV Specials with Michael Bubble… and her album still can t make the top40.

    FLOP is her lastname.

    I never thought ANYBODY associated with XFactor could flop in the UK.

    She s just made history… the wrong kind.

  16. EdwardPonton December 19, 2011

    Kelly sounded amazing. I’ve noticed that it depends on her setting to determine what kind of vocals she will deliver. But she put it down. She ALWAYS deliver s in Acoustics settings and in settings with a small crowd. She really do have the potential to be one of the best singers out today (My opinion) If she always delivered vocal performances like this one. She showed great control here with ease.

  17. Chillin December 19, 2011

    damn.now that was GREAT!!!..@ truth teller..i guess some of you live to hate on people..now thats what is SAD

  18. queenposh December 19, 2011

    @truth teller.. the reason kelly’s album is not doing well is half the album songs are already top 10 hits and sold many records.. pple bought most songs already as singles and they did well, comander, when love takes over , down for watever, what a feeling, ect have been reliesed already and they did well its just the album timing that was abit late .. and many pple bought the us version when it was out.. if only they were released same time..
    THIS WAS AN AMAZING PERFORMANCE… she neeed songs that will show how vocals too… she is good and just like motivation did well, with the right songs she will get her no1 album…

  19. BeyStan December 19, 2011

    I think Kelly has a confidence when sharing a stage versus being solo that determines how she sounds.
    She usually sounded good with DC…sounded good with Lionel Richie…now this.
    I really enjoyed

  20. JohnVidal December 19, 2011

    It´s amazing how great Michael Buble Xmas albums is selling both in the USA and in the UK. Slaying the several singles artists out there LOL

  21. NikkiIsChillin December 19, 2011

    Kelly looks and sounds amazing. Her tonal quality and pitch….on point. I’m proud of Kelly, too bad her sales aren’t what what we would have expected. I support her anyway.

  22. Mitch December 19, 2011

    Amazing performance!!! Kelly has the most beautiful skin, pretty girl!

  23. Bey Fan… December 19, 2011

    She sounded amazing…..We all know Kelly can sing, but some performances I think her nerves get the best of her. With DC, she was so good.

    Anywho, this performance was great. All of the singers sounded awesome.

  24. B Lamont December 19, 2011

    AWESOMENESS!!!!!

  25. Erik Aston Washington December 19, 2011

    As always Kelly’s voice was soaring! Loved her!

  26. Mistfit December 19, 2011

    Wow I haven’t heard Kelly sing this well live since the destinys fulfilled era. Wow she really sounded great.
    Her tone was heavenly…..she really is top tier when she sings on pitch.
    Plus her confidence was just on point.
    Does seem like her and Micheal have vocal chemistry.
    How deep is your love was good too

    Stop hating haters.
    This vocal performance>most of your pop tart faces on an good day

  27. GLYNNJE December 19, 2011

    wow awesome!!!

  28. MichaelAngelo December 19, 2011

    Kelly sounds fantastic!! i haven’t heard her sound this damn good since she sang “with You” on Apollo in 1998!!

  29. williNalli December 19, 2011

    God she sounds so GOOD!!! Don’t it feel like butter or better yet CHOCOLATE to your ears when she sings…I already told her too!

  30. VivaLaOnyx December 19, 2011

    This was beyond cute!! I love every single thing Kelly does!!

  31. She is a mediocre singer December 19, 2011

    I don’t care for any stan base Beyonce or Kelly, RIhanna or Christina, Britney or whoever.
    But I must say anybody calling Kelly Rowland “Queen Kelly ” is definitely copying Beyonce’s stan base. Kelly clearly isn’t queen anything. It is actually embarrassing calling her Queen Kelly. She is better known as Ms.Kelly or kelly Rowland from destinys child.

    Down to this performance she did a strong 60%. I am a vocal coach and I wouldn’t say she killed it, She didn’t eat it up. She tried but definitely could have been better if it were Christina, Beyonce or other A-list celeb.

  32. Mistfit December 19, 2011

    That last comment from “misfit” was not from me. WTH?! In any case, I agree with the fake me! Lol!

  33. King December 19, 2011

    Kelly Rowland…. her vocals were amazing!!!!

    @dagreatkingrock

  34. Travell December 19, 2011

    I am a vocal coach for a living. So, I will attest that this is the genre that best suits her voice. Job WELL DONE- and the hatred is ridiculous. Kelly Rowland has the chops and the personality. She just needs a new direction

  35. Travell December 19, 2011

    To: MISFIT yourse is the ONLY real comment on this post.

  36. Girrrl December 19, 2011

    Why can’t Kelly perform on her own after 15 years in the game? I really hope this duet pushes here I flopped past 200 k in the US or else those albums will still collect dust in the storage room at best buy.

  37. O_O December 19, 2011

    She is a mediocre singer

    F*** you very much.

  38. Sarah December 19, 2011

    Let this girl live.

  39. ThankMeLater December 19, 2011

    SHE KILLED IT. Very underated artist.

  40. Nohate December 19, 2011

    She did that.

    Nobody’s selling records, honey
    So shut the f*** up

    Another post is about gaga not selling like she used to
    Beyonce gets no major nominations

    If you ain’t taking about Adele- shut up

  41. Frankie December 19, 2011

    kelly is criminally underrated .. Its ashame she gets compared with beyonce and prob always will cuz when u compare most of these pop girls(rihanna,britney,kesha) to beyonce in the talent department its almost embarrasing LOL but I actually think kelly could fit right up there with beyonce and gaga given the right material and direction .. Anyone doubting kelly needs to go buy the destinys child live in atlanta dvd and watch her slay .. She really does have the potential and talent to blow many of these chicks out of the water

  42. …………………………………… December 19, 2011

    She did great! Love Kelly! Kelly always could sing but after DC she lost her confidence. Samething happened to Brandy. It doesn’t matter rather she sing with anyone of not she sounded amazing! Give the woman her credit! Geeezzz…. it wasn’t her tv special!

  43. Steph December 19, 2011

    Exactly…it wasn’t her TV special, lighten up people. Great performance Kelly!! You put it down!!

  44. NI**AS in LOnDoN December 19, 2011

    All these fake vocal coaches,saying s*** bout this perf can go mop the atlantic ocean and pls drown in the process. Fools!!! Awesome performance BTW.

  45. IHATESTANS December 19, 2011

    @baa, PLEASE LETS BE REAL!!! WHEN BEYONCE JOOKS CIARA DOWN THEN A B**** CAN SAY SHE CAN DANCE AND SING LIVE! BEYONCE IS AND WILL REMAIN IN THA 95% THATS ON A PRERECORDED TRCK! PRESSED?! NOT AT ALL GET A CLUE AND GET OUT HER p****.

  46. Cee December 19, 2011

    She slayed. Her voice sounded amazing! Go Kelly! Show them whatchu got!

  47. Jamie December 19, 2011

    See you haters are pressed right now, and you’re gonna stay that way. Either give props or keep it moving!

  48. hd live December 20, 2011

    I LOVE MICHAEL BUBLE

  49. lyric commander lee December 21, 2011

    pure heaven – so crisp and elegant – ms kelly did say that she always wanted to do a jazz album and i can see why = her voice would dominate – what cant she sing lol WORK!

  50. VFB December 21, 2011

    KELLY IS A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN! LOVE HER OUT OF ALL THE DC GIRLS.

  51. angela wesley December 29, 2011

    That goes to show you that Kelly do a duet with anyone and still sound
    great. Kelly is not a flop. When you a plautim single, a grammy
    nomation, loads of magizne covers and an X-factor judge to
    me that in floping. If Kelly is medicore what is Keri Hilson because
    she is not a A lister.
