Jordin Sparks and Justin Bieber attempt a "No Air" duet

On December 10th, Jordin Sparks was set to perform “No Air” at the Kiss 108 Jingle Ball in Boston. However, for obvious reasons Chris Brown was not invited to the show. The problem is that “No Air” is a fantastic duet but doesn’t carry over well as a solo song.

In order to fill in the part normally done by Chris Brown, they got Canadian singer Justin Bieber to attempt the duet with Jordin. And I use the word “attempt” for good reason. With all due respect, it just didn’t work.

To be fair it wasn’t just Justin; Jordin was pitchy as well on several occasions, but Justin just really can’t keep up with Jordin’s vocals. On top of that, it doesn’t seem like they got much rehearsal time in before the show because Justin and Jordin seem to be out of sync and sound like it was their first time ever singing together.

I will be honest; I couldn’t even listen to the entire clip. By the end of the first chorus I was done and that was being generous. Poor Jordin deserves better than that performance, what do you think?

    I LOVE JORDIN SPARKS VOCALS, and I have heard her sing “No Air” along before in concert and she can really sing it very well however; it is a duet and Justin was just too FLAT and sound TERRIBLE. I am sorry to all the Justin fans but his voice is not Mature enough or Strong enough to sing this duet powerful duet and it REALLY throw Jordin off vocally, she tried to walk away and rebound BUT IT JUST DID NOT WORK FOR JUSTIN!

    I agree that the vocals fall flat but, He’s a little young and his voice is changing to let’s give him a break. I also saw an interview where Jordin said she was a little horse. So maybe next time it will get better. Justin seem so sweet. You just got to love him!

    Not sure why you think I’m insecure about my singing since I’m not a singer. If you like him, that’s fine but I think he did a disservice to a great song. It’s just my opinion and you’re equally welcome to yours.

    I think it was pretty good for justin because he is only 15 and his voice is changing and he is maturing so you dont need to hate on him because he didnt do as good as chris brown…no one is the same so just deal with it.
