As reported here, ‘Down For Whatever’ diva Kelly Rowland got down to business tonight on Graham Norton. Although resuming her panel duties on X Factor UK after a brief hiatus due to illness, the songstress (still obviously in recovery mode) soldiered through this – the first televised performance of her latest RedOne-crafted hit.
Setting the tone for the international release of her acclaimed ‘Here I Am’ set, find out how she did after the jump:
*Update* – Interview now included.
Interviews (start at 4:15):
Nice. Vocals were pretty tight here. Dunno why her US promo wasn’t this clean too. Could be the mic and sound systems at the venues.
Mad i was not first 🙁 LUV LUV LUV!!!

She did amazing!! Best performance Kelly has ever done. Vocals were spot on.
from the ustream:
Brandy about the first single:
“I think its FIRE, you know what I mean…. its different….. its just edgy, its melodic, dope, its like… I like it a lot, I love it actually, and I think you guys will love it I think you guys have never heard me over something this like….. its hard, hard, hard as knock”
I knew Kelly was going to bring the house down. Nice vocals 🙂

Great vocals….HOt live
Is it just me or is Kelly giving off Janet ver. 2?!?! I love it!!!! Finally someone who has graduated from the school of Janet Jackson with honors!
WOOOO! So good, she rocked that performance wow! She better get a X factor slot!
She did a great job.Great energy and great vocals even though the choreo could have been stronger, but she was sick until a week ago, so it’s natural 😎 The performance even made this awful song sound almost tolerable 😯 I hope that her X Factor performance will have a different setting.I’d love to be surprised 😀
I wish her luck with this single (she has top 10 in the bag, but I’d like top 5).The song itself doesn’t even deserve to be in the charts whatsoever, but SHE deserves a good chart run 🙂
That was sooooooooo gooooooooood. Go Kelly!!!!!!!
That was great!
kelly rowland sucks live shes nothing but a flop one hit wonder……. album is garbage!!!!!
kelly roowlands vocals are always terrible live shes always out of breathe and sounding shaky .
Kelly’s got those breast display… like it
Go Kelly! Great performance. Loved the dancers. Her voice was just okay here, but it was still good.
She was FAB! GO KELLY <3
flop
CHESSY ASS PERFORMANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
FLOP SONG
AND TGJ WHERE IS THE POST THAT SAYS THIS SONG IS SO CALLED A SMASH HIT ON THE GLOBAL CHARTS LIKE YALL PREDICTED A MONTH AGO!!!!!!!!???????????????????????????????
(CRICKETS)
THIS ISNT EVEN ONT HE CHARTS
love this
If some of you said she did good. You would have to get ur ears checked. I would openly say Rihanna has better vocals than Kelly Rowland live. Kelly cannot sing. She just has the Destiny’s Child cover up.
Her ass NEEDS to be down for some VOCAL lessons.
eat it diva i love it!!
Im sorry but I love Kelly Rowland & I love this song but I didn’t believe her.She did not sell the song to me in anyway form or fashion. You know how some artist sing their songs live and it sounds better than the album?She’s not that artist , and im rooting for her but come right or don’t come at all. Your a darkskin singer in the midst of all these lightskins who are outselling you and this is the performance you choose to give us and I swear if she throws that mic out to the audience one more time I will roll over and die omg she notorious for that . Ima need her to law off the treez if this is how it’s doing her vocal . I remember when i was younger and I read and old sister2sister magazine and it featured an interview with Destiny Child vocal coach and he claimed that Kelly Rowland had the most voice in the group … um what happened to it ?
GREAT PERFORMANCE
she was recovering from a throat infection and still better than past vocals
Flops dont get this much exposure, dumbasses! She is relevant. A flop is not. Sales dont mean s*** no more, but everybody knows who the f*** she is- finally
That was a great performance .. Ms kelly brought it, haters will hate, ppl like them help her to stay relevant … She’s down 4 whatever .. ITS MSKELLY BITCHESSSS !!!
She killed. The energy, hip rolls, and vocals were all on point. I loved it!!!
This interview was very interesting *in a good way* and Kelly MURDERED this performance!!
seriously? she still sounds terrible. i really like kelly but im starting to think shes a lost cause. and another thing. she needs to leave pop alone. she dosent do well in that area and it looks kinda like a joke when she performs pop songs like this.
I enjoyed the interview too.
it was AMAZING!!! Everything about it!!!! Haters will always hate, but meh, you all are TIRED!!
