Talk:Corinne Bailey Rae

message: yes she was featured on the album that won album of the year but the way it is said their sounds like she won it she didn't i think that need to be re-written as it sound's like she won it when she didn't, that is a little partly hers but it needs to be re-written like Rae also share a grammy for album of the year for featuring on  Herbie Hancocks River: The Joni Letters along with Leonard Cohen, Norah Jones, Joni Mitchell, Luciana Souza & Tina Turner  this is not the place to big up your fav celeb's that comment sounds very POV/fan club style writing it's not fair and not what wikipedia is about, she did only one song on the album and was only featuring on it at that please change it now someone is trying to make it sound bigger than it is, i've never done that sort of thing with my fav celebs on hear so no one esle should.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.22.206.205 (talk) 23:43, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

message: :As is required by WP:ALBUMS, the albums and singles should be listed in a table. Plus, this looks much tidier. If you remove again, please explain why in the talk page.

thread_title: Table Albums and Singles

message: Corinne has stated before that she doesn't want to be a pop star-she is a pop singer. She has also said that she doesn't like the idea of having to flaunt her body to sell records, like Britney Spears or Christina Aguilera. But in her recent 'I'd Like To' video she is acting in a rather suggestive manner, especially compared to previous efforts such as 'put Your Records On'. Should this be added to the article? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 212.139.213.42 (talk) 17:26, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, and today I got my heat magazine and there was a photo of her at an event wearing a short dress that had blown up to show that she was wearing a g-string. Until recently I would not have considered Corinne Bailey Rae to be a g-string sort of person. Nukleoptra 20:37, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Increasingly Sexual Image

message: In the article it states "even though her verbal attackers mistakenly thought she was of Iraqi origin." of her childhood experience of racism. It then goes on to say she was called a "Paki", which is a derogatory term for those originating from Pakistan, though most 'users' of this slur would cluelessly apply it to anyone from the Indian subcontinent. So where does the assumption of Iraqi origin come from?

message: <I>The moniker "Helen" also drew attention, albeit for not all the right reasons: "What can I say? We were 15 years old, and thought that Helen was a cheeky, indie kind of thing to do. It seemed clever at the time. Admittedly, it seems less so now".</I>
I'm ASSUMING "Helen" means something in British English. But in any case, as a native speaker of U.S. English I have NO IDEA what this section is talking about. Why would the name "Helen" draw attention, and why is it "cheeky"?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Acc78 (talk • contribs) 22:16, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

message: I know her, i know her mum and her mum (Linda bailey) says she was racially abused on a minor scale using the word (Nigger), and it was her other sisters that got it worse. Gaogier Talk! 02:18, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Okay 

message: On June 2, 2010 Rae appeared with Herbie Hancock in a concert honoring (Sir) Paul McCartney in the East Room at the White House. McCartney accepted the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song.  Rae performed a transformative rendition of McCartney's "Blackbird" with Hancock.

The Rolling Stone said, "Herbie Hancock and Corinne Bailey Rae's 'Blackbird' was gentle and unrushed, greatly enhanced by Hancock's prismatic flourishes."
