- "It was like The Exorcist."
- "If your lifeguard duties were as good as your singing, a lot of people would be drowning."
- "You had about as much passion as a kitten mewing."
- "You sang like someone who sings on a cruise ship. Halfway through I imagined the ship sinking."
- "I think you're amazing ... amazingly dreadful."
- "That was extraordinary. Unfortunately, it was extraordinarily bad."
