She could. It was destroyed with the push to sound like Britney's baby voice, and this overdone garbage

[@Batest212]

​@@brka7551I agree. And a singer (who doesn't want to be famous, but gets compared vocally to Alicia and Bey) I can clearly hear she can. That is EXACTLY what messed her up

[@normairizarryni]

She has a good voice. Her technique is trash though. With vocal training she could be up there with Christina Aguilera.

[@Tano.Handova]

I couldn’t watch this without laughing she overdoes it and has such a great voice that she doesn’t need to

[@booboo2802]

Agree. I was rolling my eyes and cringing during the whole song. She can hold a tune but doesn't pronounce words correctly or even completely. It wouldn't have been bad if it wasn't so nasally like Britney Spears. And the over the top facial and mouth movements makes it seem like she is so full of herself. I don't get how people think she sings so beautiful. She's okay but really overdoes it to where it's comical.

[@erintoney7137]

@@booboo2802she’s actually always sang with weird expressions but she’s really extra with it here for some reason. For how much she moved her mouth her enunciation is terrible.

[@winterhughe5495]

Sadly that was “in” back then.. screaming “Britney” vibes. 🤮 She’s far more talented than Brit, doesn’t need all of the EXTRA at all.

To all the people that thinks she cant sing or that thinks that this is her real voice ...Just let me tell you this is the way she was told (forced) to sing because at the time Britney or Britneys brand was very popular. She is doing the same nasal thing Britney does....actually Jessica is a VERY good singer ...watch her " I wanna love you forever" live videos from 1999-2002 ...she has a beautiful voice . Hopefully if she releases new music , she will be able to sing in her natural voice

[@jordanmcminn998]

Cap. She can't sing

[@carissaexplainsitall8481]

Thank you. People are so cruel. Let’s see these keyboard warriors sing 🙄

[@emilyangel4real]

She had a wonderful voice and was definitely pressured to be Britney. For goodness sake, her second album Irristible was basically a Britney copy-and-paste, especially the song "Whats it Gonna Be". I really wish her country or gospel music career ever took off, she probably wanted to start in country but in the early 90s, that wasn't "cool", it was ALL POP . She's doing great with her fashion and handbag company though, go Jess! Making more money than these loser haters day and night!

lolol cant believe all these comments… Come on people, be objective. This was NOT a good performance. She sounds confused. and that weird belting (?) note, towards the end… the heck was that?? 😂 She’s an OK singer, Many American idol contestants - the ones that pass the initial audition sing way better than her - If she did that weird note at the American Idol, Simon Cowell wouldve stopped the singing immediately.

[@jessica3218]
