She definitely was singing Lucky Star by Madonna!

[@officialkristinchenoweth]

💫

[@kw449]

Yes!

[@dahmeneekah]

Yep! She should have gotten that

[@gunungmerapiapi1933]

Wasn't it "Public Affair" by Jessica Simpsons? "all night and the party don't stop"

[@zoerobinson9897]

So glad someone else thought of it too

[@user-hg6qm9ti1k]

Isn't "starlight, star bright" from Lucky Star by Madonna? She got it right. Shame on you, Elle.

[@Ifigeneia.M]

I thought she was trying to sing the theme song to Life-size 😁 "Shine bright, shine far, be a star" 😂😂

[@RochellBarbara4690]

I thought the same thing !!

[@lisakoenen7129]

They do that way too often... She got the lyrics from Alone wrong though, the word 'alone' is at the end of chorus not where she sang it (and also at the end of the verse before the chorus), so I guess that makes them even.

[@lynx4272]

@@Ifigeneia.M me too 😂 I'm like "that's a song give her the point!" 😂😂

[@caspersenpai]

Infigenia m. I thought the same thing for a short moment. And honestly that’s is my go to for star. I love that movie and that song

"I'm not that good at games. I'm okay with singing though," says a Broadway powerhouse. Lol She's hilarious!

[@orlock20]

She said she got the lyrics wrong.

[@ScrewgeMcF_ck]

@@orlock20 No, because it's literally the first words to the chorus of Lucky Star by Madonna. Even though she missed "first star I see tonight," it still counts, as most miss the following/lead-in lyrics to whatever association they use. They still get the point, though.
