Arthur Ashe Kid's Day was held in New York today. The performances were spectacular! The kids got to play against tennis players like:
Serena Williams
Novak Djokovich
Roger Federer
The kids won by a score of 8-11, if I remember correctly.Logan Chang executed the winning move beautifully.Unfortunately, people only seem interested in recording the concert performances so I posted them below.
Mindless Behavior . they focused more on their moves than their singing, which I don't really mind , except for the fact that you can barely hear the lyrics of their song because they don't put much effort into singing it.They have a long way to go and develop.I hope they grow more in the future.
The Wanted. Oh my god, awesome performance! one of my favorite bands, thank you Britain.
They really did well here, though i'm sorry i couldn't find official videos.The song is Chasing the Sun. A song that many kids, unsurprisingly, knew the lyrics to.The Wanted seem to be wearing straight jeans, perhaps skinnies? It works for them in a weird, eye-catching way.
Carly Rae Jepson with Owl City.I got to admit, i don't like Owl City, they'r just not my taste.They sound better on their album than live.And Carly was a little too soft spoken in this performance.Still, they did quite nicely.
And now, the best performance of the event.....CALL ME MAYBE.But there's a twist. The song starts out with a rehearsed, but funny prank that Novak plays on Jepson. He starts to sing her song, to delay their match.So, of course, the Glee director awards points to Federer and Carly as a penalty for Novak's team.The scene goes on, but i'll let you watch it instead.The acting was great and it was refreshing to see the Tennis Pros let go and act silly.
