Sophie Ellis Bextor’s New Year’s Eve performance on BBC left many viewers feeling awkward and disappointed despite some praise.
London: So, Sophie Ellis Bextor had her New Year’s Eve gig on the BBC, and let’s just say it didn’t go down too well with a lot of folks. People were tuning in, expecting a fun night, but instead, they found themselves cringing at her performance.
She had some big names joining her, like Jessie Ware and Jake Shears from the Scissor Sisters. They were all there for her show, “Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s NYE Disco,” where she belted out her hits and threw in a few surprises.
But not everyone was impressed. One viewer took to X, saying Sophie seemed out of breath and suggested she should just lip-sync to save the awkwardness. Ouch! Another person chimed in, saying they could see why some folks would rather hit the hay than watch the show.
There were even comments about her singing style, with one viewer questioning who booked her for the night. It was a bit harsh, to say the least. But hey, not everyone was throwing shade. Some fans actually enjoyed the concert and praised her for bringing the party vibes.
One fan even said they didn’t know much about her music but thought the concert was epic. Another defended her, saying people should lighten up and enjoy the show. It’s all about having a good time, right?
Sophie herself was excited before the event, talking about how much she loves a good party and all the sparkles that come with it. She was ready to bring in 2025 with a bang and had some surprises up her sleeve.
