From Yahoo.com Twenty-year-old Ramiele Malubay may be pint-sized, but she's got a big powerhouse voice and has quickly become a fan favorite on "American Idol," even though her personality seems to be a bit lacking. Ramiele brings up memories of Season 5 runner-up Katharine McPhee, who could belt no doubt, but really didn't seem to have the charisma or pizzazz that the eventual winner (Tayor Hicks) did. If Ramiele wants to capitalize on her big, soulful voice to the full extent, she needs to show some more personality on the show, some more zest. And please, some more uptempo songs, no more "Malubay Lullabies!" No charisma?!?!? Lacking in personality?!?! Unbelievable! That's why Kat went as far as she did, she was quirky, funny and goofy, if that ain't personality, I don't what is. Ramiele, on the other hand, has shown us a lot of who she is off-cam, maybe they're seeing different contestants than we do.

ALL YOU HATERS AND BASHERS, TAKE HEED!!! "One day you'll see her and you'll know what I mean, take her or leave her, she will still be the same..Only the curious have something to find, it's KATHARINE on this side."

I think Ramiele has definitely got a voice, but for me, the personality does not come across on stage. And they chose a particularly bad illustration if they were trying to imply Katharine had no personality, because IHN was a whale of a performance--she belted, crooned, stomped around the stage, and really SOLD that song like a pro. I watched a lot of videos of that song and nobody did it like she did, not even Whitney. I'm talking about the whole thing, not just the vocal. That whole thing fairly screamed "Hey, look at me! Notice me! Remember me! I'm in this thing to win!" And it worked, that night anyway.

Sorry, double post. Old slow computer makes me nuts sometimes.

Katharine performed IHN with passion....as she also did with It's All Coming Back to Me Now!There was intensity and emotion on her face....nostrils flared! What sets Kat apart from most Idol contestants who sing well,including Ramiele,are all the wonderful enhancements she was able to inject into those one minute and fifty seconds....whether it be the unique moves;unconventional positions(kneeling,sitting);flirting with the camera;even kicking off her shoes in mid-song!Versatility and command of the stage ruled! Even in retrospect,two years later......Kat's numbers are classics and exciting; no one even comes close to that level of star quality this year!!

As far as personality of Ramiele and Katharine are concerned, they are both sweet and warm, but Ramiele doesn't strike me as someone who could be feisty as to retort "I didn't pick it". Katharine might be bolder in some ways. However, I have to say that Ramiele has also a beautiful voice but she needs to sing a certain kind of music or those songs that fall within her range, shall I say, that best suits her pipes. When she sings the low notes, her voice doesn't sound strong enough and the lyrics seem to get cut out, like how Kady Malloy did her "Magic Man", but both Ramiele and Kady could stretch to a higher range powerfully, though. As opposed to Kristy's vocal calesthenics, KLC's low and high notes come across as strong and powerful. If I were to give advice to Ramiele, I would say, get a vocal coach before trying to record an album, and that is to give her guidance, after all, she's only 20. But of course, I will buy Ramiele's cd.

Frankly, I want to see talent and could care less if they have previous experience or even if they had past record deals. - awwhy, mjsbigblog.com
