I am trying to figure out what song Kylie Minogue performed at the MTV Europe Music Awards with no luck.
I didn’t see the show, but it was almost certainly her current single Slow. If you have RealPlayer you can see the video from within this site (click on the video icon).
Hmmmm I guess the performer I’m looking for isn’t Kylie Minogue.
I was sleeping and woke up to the sounds of the TV, someone was singing…shortly after, they announced that gave Eminem an award via satellite conferencing.
If someone can figure out the name of the female artist.
She appeared young (not teen), white, sat in a chair singing the whole time, red lipstick…
Could it have been Dido?
According to the MTVEurope UK site, Pink, Dido, and Kylie Minogue were the only white females who performed. Looking at the pictures of the performances, it sounds like you are talking about Dido. Now, I don’t pay attention to the current music, so I can’t tell you what her current single is–possibly “Life for Rent”? If you go to her website, you can listen to audio samples and narrow it down.
I remember that Dido was sitting on a stool. I think that “White Flag” was the song.
This is interesting, I was just got done listening to “Slow” and I opened this thread. Anyway, I was disappointed, because the version I heard on the show, which is the reason I…uh, went out and purchased the CD…was a lot more upbeat, as I recall. At least, the beat was harder, it sounded more like a dance song. Does anyone know if that was a remix or what?
I always thought Pink was black for some reason. Well you know, Negro or whatever. Obviously she has pale skin, but are you sure she is technically ‘white’?
I’m pretty sure she’s white. (That last one might not be one you want to click on at work–no nudity as of yet, but the thread is all sexy pictures of her.) For a “black” person, she would be very, very pale.
Yeah, but Halle Berry is almost as white and she’s Black, if that makes any sense. Simply having pale skin doen’t mean she’s not ‘black’. Or somehting.
Isn’t Halle Berry’s mother white, though?
Halle Berry is a lot darker than Pink. Pink is pale for a white girl even.
well, skin color isn’t that important or definitive in categorizing race. And Pink is caucasian, as are both her natural birth parents. I think people mistake her for multiracial because of her style and her nose, which is a bit wider and thicker than an average caucasoid nose.
Pink is white? Berry is black? We should notify Crayola at once.
Dunno if it helps, but I’ve heard a dance remix of Dido’s “White Flag” on the radio - it was good.

Why do Americans seem to think someone’s ‘race’ is so important in connection to the music they are performing?
And Halle Berry is an actress, what significance does her obviously mixed genetics play? If she’s ‘Black’, then she’s just as much ‘White’.
Nor is there any such thing as ‘technically white’ unless you’re living in 1970s apartheid South Africa.
Because stuff like Rap and R&B are traditionally the music forms of African-Americans, and if a white person does R&B or Rap they’re held to a different standard because they’re seen as trying to “co-opt” the genre.
The only “black” people I’ve seen who are indeed as pale as Pink are albino. She is incredibly pale–there are some pictures where she is only subtly peacher/darker than Casper the Ghost. Halle Berry may be pale, but she still ain’t nearly as pale as Pink. Plus, Halle Berry has a golden tone to her skin, whereas Pink’s skin is more, well, pink.
I don’t bring this up to connect her race with her music or anything like that. SoulSearching asked for a young, white, female singer who performed at that awards show, and I responded that Pink fit that description. Then Blake brought up the idea that Pink is not white. Even if she’s not “technically” white, it’s entirely possible that SoulSearching or anyone else would see her and describe her as white. What in particular makes you think she’s black, Blake?
I honestly don’t know. I just always thought she was for some reason. Now I come to think of it I can’t say why. Obvously entirely subconscious.
