Here.

It seems that Nicole is certainly ‘winning’ at this point in her career.

Habitual lip syncing aside, her undeniable talent will  continue to be pushed to the forefront of Pop culture’s psyche if she keeps delivering show stopping performances of this standard.

With her performance as a judge on the X Factor hitting our screens in no less than three months, the former Pussycat Doll has proven once again  that she is a performer worthy of judging and critiquing other talent.

Cheryl Cole- take note.

    Why don’t we point out that Right Here is completely failing as a single and leave the celeb ass-kissing to Perez. Shall we?

  2. WildChild June 21, 2011

    Her voice was so much better when she was with PCD.

  3. Aryo June 21, 2011

    hahahhaha, yeah cheryl cole, take note, lol

  4. Aryo June 21, 2011

    @Taylor
    seems like u havent checked itunes today, right there is climbing on us itunes , and is outselling best thing i never had, man down and judas

  5. Aryo June 21, 2011

    she did a really amazing job, + the crowd was crazy!

  6. Aryo June 21, 2011

    is it me or does any of yall think that DHYB shouldve been the first US single?

  7. Taylor June 21, 2011

    @ARYO

    As we speak, Right There is #62. That, by no means, any kind of achievement.

    Beyond that, Right There is at #80 on the Billboard chart. Let’s see if it even TOUCHES Top 50.

    Nice try comparing Nicole to Rihanna, Bey, and Gaga. There is no comparison. Let’s see what her album sales are and then we’ll talk

  8. e smith June 22, 2011

    who is the guy with the goatie and the glasses? nicole was great and she only lipped the chorus which everyone does except for the goddesses beyonce and namie amuro

  9. SHESDUMB THE OFFICIAL SLAYER OF S***. June 22, 2011

    SHE SHOULD’VE STAYED WITH THE P**** CAT DOLLS.

  10. Ineedtohearyousing June 22, 2011

    Sorry to burst your bubble, E Smith, but Beyonce DOES lipsynch her choruses from time to time.

    And Taylor, we’re talking about Nicole here, who has faced several setbacks. A song by someone like Nicole reaching #62 is actually good, considering that its position on the iTunes charts last week was pretty poor.

  11. Ineedtohearyousing June 22, 2011

    Oh, wait…let me rephrase myself: Sometimes she doesn’t sing her choruses AT ALL…but that’s perfectly fine!! I just don’t like it when fans try to overexaggerate singers’ abilities.

  12. Ineedtohearyousing June 22, 2011

    Are you kidding me? I need to correct myself AGAIN…I meant that sometimes she doesn’t even lipsynch, I can recall performances wherein she didn’t even try to sing let alone lipsynch. She just didn’t have the microphone anywhere near her mouth. So she doesn’t always sing her choruses. Hopefully people understand what I’m trying to get at. Long day! Lol

  13. Taylor June 22, 2011

    @INEEDTOHEARYOUSING

    #62 ON ITUNES. Just ONE factor measuring the overall success of a song. It’s #80 on Billboard. It’s barely making a dent at radio.

    She’s just another marginally talented singer who feels the need to shake her ass to sell records…and she’s not.

    Let’s keep it movin’.

  14. Junior in Jamaica June 22, 2011

    What was good about this? She sounded nasally and certainly not “winning”.

  15. Ineedtohearyousing June 22, 2011

    Taylor, well from what I hear, it’s actually doing quite well on the radio. And you are entitled to your own opinion…but Nicole a marginally talented singer?! Come on now!! 😛 although, I will admit to her vocal performance in the above video being marginal, haha

  16. CrackCoke June 22, 2011

    lol dis flop.

  17. ERIC June 22, 2011

    she did amazing! 🙂
    great job nicole!

  18. Aryo June 22, 2011

    @taylor, right there was #150 2 weeks ago but since then , it has moved up to #62 with no promotion!
    and its doing great on the radio!
    its going to have a new peak this weeks on hot 100 😀

  19. ranny June 22, 2011

    @ Taylor… she aint no beyonce or gaga… by her standards her song Right there is fast becoming a hit in the US, and the song is only a month old so its just climibing with NO PROMO! so it deserves some credit ok? Climbing the itunes chart at #62, and already TOP 25 in radio in US… even #3 in the UK, so before you give me YOUR numbers CHECK the HISTORY of RIGHT THERE her 1st OFFICIAL SINGLE in the US. you just jealous… aiight?

  20. ranny June 22, 2011

    i admit HER NAME is NICOLE is era was a FLOP , but KILLER LOVE era is way much better , making an impact already at UK, 3/3 singles TOP 5(Poison , Dont Hold Your Breath #1, Right There #3 . Her 1st Top 100 Single in the US is RIGHT THERE, so before yall tell that she is marginal and flop remember she was the lead PCD almost all vocals was hers DONT CHA #2, BUTTONS #5, STICKWITU, WHEN I GROW UP #9, BEEP#13, I HATE THIS PART #11, JAI HO #15, WAIT a MINUTE #28,

    So there ,If a top 40 act and artist is FLOP to you then what is not flop? #1… be realistic not all songs hit #1… your just a hater looking for attention. Dont give us numbers hahahhaah

  21. Aryo June 22, 2011

    well said @ranny

  22. Samantha June 22, 2011

    She is not lip synching – she is singing live and she is fantastic!

  23. WonderLand19 June 22, 2011

    Yeah, America dont really like her but the rest of the world LOVE HER. This was No.1 in the UK. This is the only song that she has released that she can really sing live.

  24. Taylor June 22, 2011

    @RANNY

    I only compared Nicole to Gaga, Beyonce, and Rihanna, because ARYO did it first to make his/her argument.

    Second, the ole “you’re jealous” thing. Criticizing someone does not automatically equate with jealousy. I’m sure there are artists you dislike. Does that mean you’re “jealous” of them? No. It’s an idiotic argument. It’s an idiotic statement. Come on now.

    Top 30 for me would be a marginal success. Kelly Rowland was able to do it with ‘Motivation’ (almost Top 20), and she wasn’t EVEN the lead singer of Destiny’s Child. Nicole should’ve been able to do it with this. She hasn’t, and she won’t.

    Right Here is #70 on iTunes. It’s dropping.

  25. Ano3006 June 22, 2011

    The rest of the world loves her? No they don’t. As far as I know she hasn’t release anything in Asia nor Africa which is part of the rest of the world.
    Let’s be honest here, the only place where she has any succes is in the UK. The rest of Europe aren’t really buying her stuff either.

  26. henrytots June 22, 2011

    lol at taylor. right there is currently sitting inside top 20 in US radios. it already peaked at 30+ in itunes and hasnt left the billboard hot 100 since its release. just like what they said for an artist like Nicole this is a big achievement. stop hating

  27. henrytots June 22, 2011

    and all of those without promos.

  28. Ano3006 June 22, 2011

    No promo? American Idol and Ellen are no promo? Okay then…

  29. Kitten June 22, 2011

    A usual, all the Cheryl lovers are hating on Nicole. Well, it is Cheryl who can’t stop saying nasty things about Nicole, I wonder who is jealous of who? Nicole has much more talent than Cheryl Cole and I am glad she got the role on USA X Factor. I am also glad Tulisa is on UK version and not Cheryl Cole. Looking forward to watching both X Factors now.

  30. Aryo June 22, 2011

    who is cheryl? lol
    @taylor
    right there sropped to 70 cuz all the voice contestants songs have taken over

  31. Bleh June 22, 2011

    Europe is loving her as far as the charts are concerned, and the US is idiotic for not embracing such a vocally talented artist. Have you seen her perform the song ‘I’ll be your love”? Youtube it, and you’ll be impressed. She has such a great voice.

    I blame her marketing team, they are beyond wasting time promoting Right there, ’cause Killer Love(The song) would’ve shot up to #1 on the US charts. Her and Ms. Rowland should collab together since Europe loves them both so much, and it’d boost their US sales as well. ^^

    For those of you hating on Nicole, c’mon now it’s not 1999, stop the hating, stop covering your hate by calling it criticism, and stop calling artists all flops when in fact they’re earning more millions than our calculators can calculate. ^^

  32. henrytots June 22, 2011

    well eerm AI helped launch the single but stumbled out of itunes top 100 after a few days. Right now, Right there is doing great without promo and the radio is the only one giving life to the song. its currently inside the top 20 and im sure it will have another peak on BB next week.
    yall have no basis to say that Right there is flopping because its far from being a flop

  33. EmpressSlayumiLegendsaki June 22, 2011

    I love Nicole. She’s doing so well and she deserves all her success.

    @e smith

    Whomie Nomuro? You failed. Ayumi already punched her out the game long ago. Ayumi just recently punched Utada out the game and into early retirement.

  34. Ano3006 June 22, 2011

    @henry… I didn’t say it was flopping, she’s not doing bad but she’s hardly setting the charts on fire. I just caught you lying about the fact “Right There” had no promo, cause it did!

    @ Bleh. Please prove me how the European charts love her? Because outside the UK & Ireland she ain’t charting well.

  35. lola June 22, 2011

    What the hell was this??? I really want a Nicole stan to explain to me what is so great about her voice! She has one of the ugliest and worst singing voices ever! She’s always nasally, off key, and flat! She sounds like a damn old grandma who smokes cigarettes! She needs to give it up. Her singles aren’t slaying all around Europe, in Canada, in Australia, or in the Us! She’s a damn flop. That’s what she gets for being such a b*tch in PCD!

  36. roe June 22, 2011

    @ LOLA : Maybe you just don’t like this song. Listen to her singing on Broadway (Rent and Rocky horror picture show), her cover of Black Dog or her other songs on her album and come back and say she has the worst singing voice ever!!! Sounds more like you are jealous. If you don’t like her, that’s fine, everyone has their taste in music.

  37. roe June 22, 2011

    @ LOLA : and why are you wasting your time watching her video if you consider her having the worst singing voice ever. LOL.

  38. denzel October 16, 2011

    good
