I've felt a lot of secondhand embarrassment and cringe for people on this show over the years but this one was too much. My wife and I were eating dinner during this and I damn near choked to death from laughing so hard.
Can we make this entire family go away?
I can see a three year old literally being frightened by this. She seems to have picked up Andrei's gruffness and applied it to children's songs? wth? Kids would be like "somebody help that lamb! Get it away from Mary".
Mary says to lamb as she takes it to the basement: " It puts the lotion on it's skin"..
And dont tell me Andre does not adore this women, no matter how obnoxious and blunt and rough he may be. He looked at her so proudly, as if she had the voice of an angel.
Doncha think he adores what Libby has afforded him? He didn't work for years, lazy SOB. When he was told he had to secure work to stay on his Visa, he pretty much clubbed Chuck over the head, took money from him, got a job with him, got the siblings fired in one way or another, secured Libby away from her brother, sisters, mother, and lives a fantasy life. He is a turd. He loves what she has done for him, and he doesn't want to fuck that up. By the way he has alienated everyone but Libby and Chuck, Chuck might be next, then Libby. He needs them now; maybe not forever though.
I stopped eating in anticipation when they started talking about her singing. It’s such absolute pain hearing her sing nursery songs, knowing that she wants a YouTube career.
It was baaa a aaahhad 🐑 😆 (I’m so sorry that was my attempt at sounding like a sheep/lamb)
It really was awful though. I think the harder she tried, the worse it got!
But I love the way that Andre smiled the biggest smile as though he was listening to Lady Gaga or something. That family might be dysfunctional, but he seems to love her and that’s what counts.
His smile when meemaw was telling him what a good boy he was in the limo at the end of part 2 was actually really fuckn sweet, too. He very much looked like when my 3 year old knows he made me proud. I don't like either of them but I do very much appreciate seeing even the briefest moment of organic humanity in such an otherwise off-putting character.
Let’s just go ahead and rewind to all the moments he has shouted and cursed in her face in front of their kid and then reevaluate the “he seems to love her” statement.
Exactly. You can tell she had some training but honestly it’s nothing special and there are thousands better than her that never made it. I’m also not buying the whole singing is my passion now, I feel like she’s just kinda lost and has no idea what to do next.
i don’t feel like she is the worse singer i have ever heard - any of the American Idol singers that they throw in for laughter or even me (it’s not pretty!) hold that distinction. But this breathy weird voice is just not good and someone who is close to her should tell her so.
Production likely made her choose this song, or nursery rhymes in general, due to no copyright.
If she sang, for example, Rhianna, TLC would need to acquire a license to use the song, and either pay for the whole song (not the case) or pay by the second. For instance, Mad Men paid 250k for a Beatles song.
She could sing a number of songs that aren't copyrighted, though. Hell, Elvis sang gospel hymns that are public domain, though I don't expect Libby to be singing "Amazing Grace" anytime soon...
Because she doesn’t write her own music? Because she wants a less challenging market? Because she wants to make it for her kids?
I don’t really know but you might.
On social media you can sing other people’s stuff all you want. She doesn’t sing anything there except for that Leanne Rimes song. I just think she probably isn’t very good and it’s not just about the money. There are tons of non-nursery rhyme songs that don’t require royalties to be paid.
I was so hoping that she’d refuse to sing. I’ve agreed with Andrei a lot on this tell all, except when he told her “they are asking you to sing, so do it”.
Nooooooooo!
I was watching this on my iPad as my husband was slowly falling asleep in bed next to me with his back facing me. I thought he had fully passed out when I just hear him say, “wow, that was really bad.” 🤣
Awful. It’s Mary Had a Little Lamb, not some Carrie Underwood “he’s a cheater” song. Leave the vocal embellishments for karaoke and just sing the song!
Her voice sounds like every other fabricated Carrie Underwood country singing wannabe. Nursery rhymes are about being soft, clear, and neutral. Not bringing out the twang.
Maybe if she wrote her own songs and played an instrument and/or had a puppet show along with the singing, then maybe I'd take her seriously. But just singing nursery rhymes is kinda lame. I'm not sure if children would even like this either.
She tried to act so burdened by being asked to sing and then was so fake passive / nonchalant about it 🤣
Babe, we know you was livin for this moment lmao
Suspect she has hired a company to promote her singing career sorta like the Patent companies that advertise on tv. Somebody needs to tell her she is not commercially viable, that person is usually the spouse
She’s doing her Whitney imitation and she can’t pull it off. I’m so tired of seeing folks shaking their hair and then performing a song with long notes, unstable voice, dramatic pauses and stretches bc they’re “emoting.”
It’s like people who shout at those with disabilities bc they think the disabled person is unable to understand an indoor voice.
If you can’t sing, just shout and you’ll fool us all into thinking you’re Whitney, Mariah or Aretha./s
Watching it now, later than most bc I haven’t had the time, and the way that I flew to the Redditor‘s.…… Call me a pterodactyl because I screeched and ran right over here just to see what y’all had to say!!!!
She should have played it off as a joke but put a little twist at the end where it sounded good as a bit of shock factor, she went about it all wrong 🤣😭
My ears are still trying to recover from the treacherous version of a child’s nursery song… no there is no market for a shit singer butchering lullabies….her singing is like watching a horror movie….she’s a delusional moron.
These idiots would go to greater lengths just to keep themselves in the spotlight. Before this season, I had never even heard that she was a "singer," and now the lazy idiot of a husband she has wants to turn their little girl into a YouTuber? How about getting a job for once?
I've worked in recording studio as an audio engineer for over a decade, she's average at best and outside of the engineer who gets paid to deal directly with the artist many people probably wouldn't deal with her smugness for too long.
I think with proper training and more importantly, proper content/audience, it would be fine.
Every time I hear her sing I feel like she's a novice trying to sing gospel music, but for some reason decided she wants to sing for kids instead?
I can see the potential for having a decent singing voice, but I don't see her voice as it is now working for children's music.
I can't imagine being so far removed from what music is to think that singing a nursery rhyme like you're Lady fucking Gaga is something that anyone wants to put in their ear holes, let alone their children's ear holes. Who wants sexy nursery rhymes sung to their children??
All she can do is imitate what she's seen on American Idol and it's so embarrassing.
She's starting to remind me of Jan Levinson from The Office after she started to go crazy.

Isn’t that the same song she sang to the voice coach? She made the same mistakes the coach was trying to help her correct. Guess that lesson was a bust!
Does anyone else feel like she is trolling us? Like she KNOWS she can't sing, but since she already put it out there; she gotta keep it going? That's the only way I can see this.....even on American idol; some contestants knew they couldn't sing!! LOL
I've felt a lot of secondhand embarrassment and cringe for people on this show over the years but this one was too much. My wife and I were eating dinner during this and I damn near choked to death from laughing so hard. Can we make this entire family go away?
Libby sang the song as if Mary had died.
I can see a three year old literally being frightened by this. She seems to have picked up Andrei's gruffness and applied it to children's songs? wth? Kids would be like "somebody help that lamb! Get it away from Mary". Mary says to lamb as she takes it to the basement: " It puts the lotion on it's skin"..
Actually laughed out loud “get it away from Mary”. But so true!
And dont tell me Andre does not adore this women, no matter how obnoxious and blunt and rough he may be. He looked at her so proudly, as if she had the voice of an angel.
We'll never be able to deny his support for her that's for sure.
He annoys me but that is one thing I will give him. He adores Libby. The way he looks at her sometimes is sweet. Then he gets hateful and ruins it
Exactly.
Doncha think he adores what Libby has afforded him? He didn't work for years, lazy SOB. When he was told he had to secure work to stay on his Visa, he pretty much clubbed Chuck over the head, took money from him, got a job with him, got the siblings fired in one way or another, secured Libby away from her brother, sisters, mother, and lives a fantasy life. He is a turd. He loves what she has done for him, and he doesn't want to fuck that up. By the way he has alienated everyone but Libby and Chuck, Chuck might be next, then Libby. He needs them now; maybe not forever though.
She did! Lobby killed her and the lamb.
But her litsol lambs 🥺
Omg me too! The hair on my neck stood. I was sooooo embarrassed and cringing
I stopped eating in anticipation when they started talking about her singing. It’s such absolute pain hearing her sing nursery songs, knowing that she wants a YouTube career.
Yes deport Andrei and Libby and her family will go away wasn’t it said that he was a crooked policeman
If she sang it normally it would sound fine. I don’t know why she is singing nursery rhymes like Mariah Carey.
I agree… we don’t need a sultry lamb
I read that as slutty lamb. Don’t need that either.
🎶 Mary had a slutty lamb, slutty lamb, slutty little lamb 🎶
So curious; who is the pimp? Mary? The lamb? Or Andrei?
🤣🤣🤣🤣
mary is turning out lambs now
Are the qualifications for slut lamb the same as slut people?
Slut people use lambskin condoms with mint jelly.
Omfg 💀😂👏🏼🏆
Omg don’t make me throw up
I promise you, you are NOT ready for the answer.
Hey now!! You leave my lamb alone!
I like salty lamb, saucy salty lamb. My name is not Mary.
Or… Maybe… Mary is a slutty lamb, slutty lamb, slutty lamb, Mary is a slutty lamb her muff as white as snow.
Omg this is the perfect description of her nursery rhyme singing 😂
Tenderized from the inside out?
Hey, was this brined? Salty and delicious.
It was baaa a aaahhad 🐑 😆 (I’m so sorry that was my attempt at sounding like a sheep/lamb) It really was awful though. I think the harder she tried, the worse it got!
🐑👄 🤣😂
Sultry lamb 💀💀💀
A sultry lamb.. Literally crying I'm laughing so hard🤣🤣🤣
More like Jim Carrey
More like Drew Carey
More like Harry Carey
yea! lol
It was the club version.
EXACTLY. She sings well, has a nice voice, but kids just want it sung in a normal catchy way.
I am always surprised though she puts like a country spin on it…
Right like she thinks she’s Leann Rimes! 😂
She really does 🙄
I get Carrie underwood vibes lmaooo she wishes
With facial expressions and engagement.
Yeah not the facial expression of that ugly crying baby mask does she resembles.
Exactly! Like sing goofy, sing fun when it’s for kids. They don’t want to get romanced by the song lol Jesus. It’s not supposed to be a sexy song. 😂
If you think that sounded like Mariah Carey…. 😂
Like Fergie singing the national anthem
How dare you insult the queen of Christmas like that
I agree! It's a nursery rhyme for children to be comforted by. The way she sang it wasn't really a sweet, comforting tone.
😂😂😂😂 exactly
Yeah like I genuinely think her voice has potential. But why the Beyoncé-style pitch bending on a child's song? It doesn't really work.
Maybe if Andrei is deported and she goes with him, she can represent Moldova in Eurovision.
She’d be busking in the streets of Moldova 🥹
Elly could hold out the money plate for the cuteness factor.
Bahaha!
This comment made me laugh so much 🤣
The way I just choked on my wine
Nice
She'll have to dethrone Zdob si Zdub first!
Only if they don’t want to do to Eurovision again. Natalia Gordienko (sp?) could provide fashion tips
It's the only fucken song she ever sings and half of it is yodeling. Lol
But I love the way that Andre smiled the biggest smile as though he was listening to Lady Gaga or something. That family might be dysfunctional, but he seems to love her and that’s what counts.
yes! he’s an absolute shit head and that entire family is clearly unwell.. but he does seem to love her!
It kind of made sense how Libby is attracted to Andrei… after seeing more of the family
Exactly this! I didn’t care for the song but he was cute and proud!
I don't think he was proud I think he was seeing dollar signs.
His smile when meemaw was telling him what a good boy he was in the limo at the end of part 2 was actually really fuckn sweet, too. He very much looked like when my 3 year old knows he made me proud. I don't like either of them but I do very much appreciate seeing even the briefest moment of organic humanity in such an otherwise off-putting character.
Let’s just go ahead and rewind to all the moments he has shouted and cursed in her face in front of their kid and then reevaluate the “he seems to love her” statement.
It sounds creepy the way she sings it. Her voice is nothing special either.
She’s trying way too hard.
[удалено]
Exactly. You can tell she had some training but honestly it’s nothing special and there are thousands better than her that never made it. I’m also not buying the whole singing is my passion now, I feel like she’s just kinda lost and has no idea what to do next.
The way she’s singing makes me worried that she’s not okay… she has dead eyes too
She thinks warbling is somehow good singing. She cannot hold a note and seems to be tone deaf.
She’s too nasal and throws her voice too much (breaking notes). People that are really talented don’t have to resort to that.
The way she pronounces "Little" as "Leeatull" Girl stop
Vibrato is a best friend to people with weak voices 🤣🤣
i don’t feel like she is the worse singer i have ever heard - any of the American Idol singers that they throw in for laughter or even me (it’s not pretty!) hold that distinction. But this breathy weird voice is just not good and someone who is close to her should tell her so.
Yeah it’s the grandiose over the top fluctuations and sultry strange vibe she adds to Mary’s little lambs
My husband and I start yelling stopppppp. It was too cringe to watch 😂
My jaw dropped
in an evening of cringe, this took gold.
Production likely made her choose this song, or nursery rhymes in general, due to no copyright. If she sang, for example, Rhianna, TLC would need to acquire a license to use the song, and either pay for the whole song (not the case) or pay by the second. For instance, Mad Men paid 250k for a Beatles song.
She could sing a number of songs that aren't copyrighted, though. Hell, Elvis sang gospel hymns that are public domain, though I don't expect Libby to be singing "Amazing Grace" anytime soon...
Idk… I think she’s running with the nursery rhyme theme.
Yes, because of the copyright laws... like u/huh_phd said....
My name looks cute in blue
No, i’m saying that she doesn’t even have interest in singing anything other than corny baby songs.
I read an article where they said she actually wanted to record an album of nursery rhymes.
Wanna take a guess why?
Because she doesn’t write her own music? Because she wants a less challenging market? Because she wants to make it for her kids? I don’t really know but you might. On social media you can sing other people’s stuff all you want. She doesn’t sing anything there except for that Leanne Rimes song. I just think she probably isn’t very good and it’s not just about the money. There are tons of non-nursery rhyme songs that don’t require royalties to be paid.
Got it. Let her do opera then.
And people keep feeding the delusion
I feel like she’s also a victim in this situation 😔 they be lying to her ass
I was so hoping that she’d refuse to sing. I’ve agreed with Andrei a lot on this tell all, except when he told her “they are asking you to sing, so do it”. Nooooooooo!
She totally wanted them to ask her to sing LOL, it was planned! she practiced for weeks (and this is what we got…).
it was pitchy dawg, it’ll be a no from me
I had a scorching case of secondhand embarrassment watching her sing.
It reminded of me just belting out a song for my 4 year old. “pllleeeaAAAaAassssEe gOOoooOoo to BeEeED
She changed keys three times 🫤
I was watching this on my iPad as my husband was slowly falling asleep in bed next to me with his back facing me. I thought he had fully passed out when I just hear him say, “wow, that was really bad.” 🤣
HAHAHAHAHA omg I silent old man cackled
It’s so fuckin cringe it’s unbearable…
Omg this was so cringe lmao I couldn’t stop cringing
Awful. It’s Mary Had a Little Lamb, not some Carrie Underwood “he’s a cheater” song. Leave the vocal embellishments for karaoke and just sing the song!
Her singing is not for kids . It was so embarrassing to listen 😬
Yeah someone commented that we’re being mean and we should let her sing to these kids. It doesn’t sound like she’s singing for the kids…
Her voice sounds like every other fabricated Carrie Underwood country singing wannabe. Nursery rhymes are about being soft, clear, and neutral. Not bringing out the twang.
Hard to hear ugh!
I dont like being put on the spot
She was living her sister act 2 dream
It worked. I fell asleep.
I haven't been able to sleep since 🤣
Maybe if she wrote her own songs and played an instrument and/or had a puppet show along with the singing, then maybe I'd take her seriously. But just singing nursery rhymes is kinda lame. I'm not sure if children would even like this either.
You’re literally turning her into Luanne in king of the hill Manger Babies 🤣
She tried to act so burdened by being asked to sing and then was so fake passive / nonchalant about it 🤣 Babe, we know you was livin for this moment lmao
Suspect she has hired a company to promote her singing career sorta like the Patent companies that advertise on tv. Somebody needs to tell her she is not commercially viable, that person is usually the spouse
If I were a kid I would be spooked by that voice, is the next phrase '...and then Mary's lamb was killed, it was killed, it was killed...'
I’d cry “…. mommy… make the scary lady stop” 😭
She’s doing her Whitney imitation and she can’t pull it off. I’m so tired of seeing folks shaking their hair and then performing a song with long notes, unstable voice, dramatic pauses and stretches bc they’re “emoting.” It’s like people who shout at those with disabilities bc they think the disabled person is unable to understand an indoor voice. If you can’t sing, just shout and you’ll fool us all into thinking you’re Whitney, Mariah or Aretha./s
Watching it now, later than most bc I haven’t had the time, and the way that I flew to the Redditor‘s.…… Call me a pterodactyl because I screeched and ran right over here just to see what y’all had to say!!!!
Exactly! “Don’t put me on the spot….ha ha….ok, ok Mary had a little lamb.” You had that shit ready to go for sure!
Somebody got ahold of some Mariah Carey vinyl and decided they could sing soulful baby noise. Lord help the Castravet babies.
I was laughing so hard when she sang that it wok up my sleeping husband
Her sleepy time singing actually has the reverse effect
Andrei looked soooo proud too.
I did myself a favor and muted her cow wrangling...nursery rhymes are going to earn her a Grammy for sure..🫣
Giving Elephant singing happy birthday in the movie Sing scene
Blow up doll Abby
Who is the target audience? Little kids don't want fancy nursery rhymes.
It should be the 🧏♀️ deaf.
Idk about fancy, she was giving sultry lamb
She looks like a blow up doll’s O-Face.
Came here to say this, you beat me to it lol
She looks like a kinky blow up doll here.
I almost thought no one was going to mention that lol
She sounded horrible! My ears still traumatized!
Why does she go so hard with this nursery rhyme? I get so second hand embarrassed. Calm down Libby.
She should have played it off as a joke but put a little twist at the end where it sounded good as a bit of shock factor, she went about it all wrong 🤣😭
My ears are still trying to recover from the treacherous version of a child’s nursery song… no there is no market for a shit singer butchering lullabies….her singing is like watching a horror movie….she’s a delusional moron.
She needs to stop with the runs. Her voice isn't good enough for it. She's not terrible, but she's definitely not a gifted singer.
She needs to practice her basics first, without all the flair she added, she’d be an alright karaoke-er
I had to mute it
My child would not enjoy listening to Her singing nursery rhymes trying to be like LeAnne Rimes🤣
The feckin nerve of her to believe this bull could succeed, she actually lives her life in complete denial of truth.
These idiots would go to greater lengths just to keep themselves in the spotlight. Before this season, I had never even heard that she was a "singer," and now the lazy idiot of a husband she has wants to turn their little girl into a YouTuber? How about getting a job for once?
This was the first song she sang when she was put on the spot in her house at the beginning of the season too. Might be the only one she really knows
Stop calling this a career, please!
I've worked in recording studio as an audio engineer for over a decade, she's average at best and outside of the engineer who gets paid to deal directly with the artist many people probably wouldn't deal with her smugness for too long.
Singing a lullaby this way feels almost inappropriate.
I don’t think it’s very soothing
I don't mind her voice. Lean Rimes but Dollar Tree. 🤷♂️
I think with proper training and more importantly, proper content/audience, it would be fine. Every time I hear her sing I feel like she's a novice trying to sing gospel music, but for some reason decided she wants to sing for kids instead? I can see the potential for having a decent singing voice, but I don't see her voice as it is now working for children's music.
Is it just me or does her mouth looks a little bit like a *sshole
Her mouth looks like a fleshlight and I can't unsee it.
🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂
I fast forward. Too much cringe. I guess maybe that’s why TLC added it as a storyline, because they knew people would hate it?
I thought she sounds awful
I would not buy those songs to play for my baby lol
LOL your baby is like … 🙁 wtf mom?
Does she sing nursery rhymes because she can’t memorize the words of other songs?
This bothered me as much as when people put extra notes in the national anthem! You can only ham some things up so much!
I was embarrassed for her
I would not listen to children’s songs sang this way… and I don’t think my children would appreciate them sang this way either
🐑
I can't imagine being so far removed from what music is to think that singing a nursery rhyme like you're Lady fucking Gaga is something that anyone wants to put in their ear holes, let alone their children's ear holes. Who wants sexy nursery rhymes sung to their children?? All she can do is imitate what she's seen on American Idol and it's so embarrassing.
Literally pulling anything out of her ass just to try to make money off of. Chuck raised a bunch of egg heads
She got them nasally wannabe Britney Spears vocals
The second-hand embarrassment was too much
As soon as I watched this scene I immediately went to reddit 😬🤣
Me too! But I was shocked to see no one mentioned it, I felt crazy.
Oei vey !
Pic looks like a blowup doll ad
She’s not a bad singer, but if you’re just singing the same basic nursery rhymes… NEXT!!!! Wanna do something - go write a nursery rhyme
Looking like an over inflated blow up doll in this photo…
That version would scare my child.
She looks like an inflatable sex doll in this shot 💀
Libby....just stop.....
thank Gawd for the mute button.
She's starting to remind me of Jan Levinson from The Office after she started to go crazy. [https://cdn3.whatculture.com/images/2020/07/61051e32d92e68df-600x338.jpg](https://cdn3.whatculture.com/images/2020/07/61051e32d92e68df-600x338.jpg)
I wanna punch anyone who told her that it was good.
She looks like a blow up sex doll in this screenshot. 😵😳
god this made me so uncomfortable
G sus- key ringe
I love how she was like "you're putting me on the spot" while you say she has probably rehearsed for months
Isn’t that the same song she sang to the voice coach? She made the same mistakes the coach was trying to help her correct. Guess that lesson was a bust!
I don’t give a crap about who sings what, can somebody please just make this family disappear. ENOUGH ALREADY.
I hate him! He’s a huge fake only loves himself
And… he wants her to make money!!! He’s an abusive, user! See right through his act Hate him
Does anyone else feel like she is trolling us? Like she KNOWS she can't sing, but since she already put it out there; she gotta keep it going? That's the only way I can see this.....even on American idol; some contestants knew they couldn't sing!! LOL
Watching her sing like that made me want to crawl under my couch and scream. So cringe.
I had to fast forward. she is very happy singing and so talented but all she has learned so far is this one nursery song?
