    of all the celebs idol could chose, why did they chose such an old actor who can not sing very well. Simon must of owed it to her from a long long time ago.

    I have always liked Terry Hatcher going back to her Lois and Clark days. Good for her helping out and I bet she will do just fine singing.

    Oh, Teri Hatcher has a beautiful singing voice. She sang a song in an episode of Lois and Clark, and she was great!
