Music industry insiders are reportedly interested in Rumer after hearing a tape of her singing along with Dusty Springfield while prepping for a photoshoot.
"She can definitely hold a good tune — keep in mind her mother, Demi, has a sultry, raspy voice, and father, Bruce, likens himself as being a blues artist," one insider said. "With the right production and material, she could put out something solid and already people are talking."
That's ironclad logic right there: Her mom has a raspy speaking voice and her father is a white guy who plays fake blues, so she must be a great singer.
Now we know how Scarlett Johansson got a record deal.
Do I need to whip out the Feist video again to remind these s what real music sounds like? No more dumb-ass celebs with their little vanity projects. If you want to find singers, go to some clubs and sign some. Then get them some decent material, put some money behind promoting them and watch their careers take off.
Honestly, this thing in the music industry of trying to make pop-stars out of established names...it's so ing gutless. In this de-nutted climate, the Beatles never would've gotten out of those leathery dive bars in Hamburg.
