V wrong on this one I'm afraid @thismorning There are shows that are specific for singalongs...No problem! The rest of the time 99.5% of the audience want to hear the brilliant talent on stage and not the out of tune, off key, untalented off! Enough said."
She added: "I am a great supporter of theatre and the arts and would never sing at the top of my lungs at any performance. I was wrong in what I said and I’ve given this a lot of thought over the past few days and believe I was wrong." One person said: "Cannot believe what I’ve just witnessed at the palace theatre watching the Bodyguard. A mini riot after the show was stopped because audience members were trying to sing over the cast."
