Default Will Alexandra give us our annual Whitney ballad this week?

One comes up each year without fail and this theme fits it perfectly ...

I expect so, she seems the most likely contestant to sing one.

100% sure she wont. She knows people will only say its preictable, and Blablabla! I dont think its fair, but thats how they set it up for her from the beginning.
I am gonna go out an guess that she is going to do a Toni Braxton song on saturday! It will be perfect for her. ANd contrary to what people keep saying, Alex doesnt sound anything like Whitney Houston, but her voice tone is very similar to Toni Braxton, or Anita Baker.

Maybe if she makes the final but I can't see her singing 'I Will Always Love You', maybe 'I Have Nothing' or 'The Greatest Love Of All'.

As Aint_Mad_Atcha said, I can see her singing Toni Braxton.

Last week, I said she sounds like Toni Braxton. Seems I'm not the only person who thinks that.

Ah yes. I have always thought that about her. VOice is much deeper, and she cant really hit those super high notes, so she really shouldnt do one of those Whitney Ballads. Toni Braxton is softer and suits her voice very well.

I love Toni Braxton. She's got a fantastic voice. Alexandra needs to be given a kick-ass song so that people won't overlook her.

I think she sounds like toni Braxton too. It's the low voice.
