Karaoke is the best. I love everything about it.  I love singing it, watching other people do their thing, hooping, hollering, and cheering them on. No matter whether the 'superstar' on stage is tone-deaf or the reincarnation of Whitney Houston, I am here for it all. Sometimes the cringiest performance is the highlight of the night.

Karaoke Queen

My good friend Mercedez is the best karaoke queen I've ever seen. Not only does she hit every note, but she sells it with her energy and crowd participation.  This woman will incorporate dance moves, work her way into the audience, and put on a SHOW!

Chances are, if you've been somewhere that does karaoke, you've seen her skills. Last year, she competed in the first-ever Singing For Gold karaoke contest at Owensboro's favorite honky tonk, Brasher's Lil Nashville.
