Flo Rida performance (or morso the chick with him)

[TCM]

I know most didn't give a damn to see MGK or Flo Rida perform before the Cena/Rock match. But something bothered me a bit, during Flo Rida's performance. The women who sings with Flo on the track Wild Ones is Sia [Furler]. Googled her during the song. Looked nothing like the woman singing Sia's part of the track, unless she decided to pull a 180 appearance-wise.

[Acclaim Entertainment]

Who cares, she was hot.

[Texas Tornado]

Skylar Grey isn't the singer originally on MGK's track either. Ester Dean is featured on it, so they probably just thought to replace both of the featured artists come showtime.

[Steveweiser]

Yeah, that wasn't Sia, the girl was miming to Sia's vocals.

Skylar Grey was an easy get to fill in for Ester Dean, as I believe she's also signed with Diddy, and tagged along.

[Krimzon]

I'm just stunned that they had f***in' Diddy there and we got stuck with MGK performing.

She is signed to Bad Boy records. She's sang the hook on a song at every Bad Boy artists latest albums.

Honestly, I actually kind of like that song.

[Allie Kitsune]

Flo's Hype Man (in the background)'s voice was overpowering his own during his performance, to boot.

[zeez]

I don't know why they had women there to sing in the first place. They were just singing with the backing track. You could barely hear either of them.

[foxy]

Sia. Ahhh, yeah. I remember hearing some of her songs on the FaceBook game Nightclub City. You've Changed was a good song.

Oh and that wasn't Ester Dean singing with MGK? Whoops!!

[Deleted]

Who was that with Flo Rida? I'm into those kind of tune, Pop if you will, but I have never seen her? My only guess is Eva Simons from Afrojack's Take Over Control.

[xCompackx]

Yeah Skylar Grey is an awesome singer, that other woman... Not so much. Flo Rida is terrible live btw. He NEEDS that studio effect to sound good. x.x

[Silent Brad]

I was just shocked to find out that neither of the women were Rihanna.

[Jedi-El of Tomorrow]

Best thing about the performance was the light cycle in the background.

I thought both performances were fine but unecessary. At least the crowd reacted with MGK getting booed and Flo Rida actually getting the crowd rocking. Say what you will but the live crowd reacted very well to Flo Rida. That's extremely rare when it comes to musical performaces on WWE shows.

I'm far from a fan, but Flo Rida's performance served its intended purpose - it got me excited to see The Rock. MGK on the other hand... yeah. He has to be the least threatening "thug" I have ever seen in my life.

Does it say more about me or today's music that I find Skylar Grey, Ester Dean, and Rihanna to be more or less interchangeable?

Doesn't help MGK looks like he hasn't eaten anything his entire life. But yeah, Flo Rida was good (although my previously mentioned criticisms).

I don't know for sure, but I don't think he's supposed to be a thug. Rap is slowly moving away from that it seems.

Yea and I'm not much of a fan of either. But they performed well which is more than I can say for some past WM performances *cough* Lemmy *cough*

Sia is awesome, shame we had to put up with spongehead at mania.
