I loved her...she was great..loved her version of this song..I'm glad to see she sent on to work in musicals as she is talented and great vocals...wish she would have released a CD.
ugh so glad people are loving on this! my favorite idol performance ever. the vocals are amazing and one of the few "Idols" to really give you an actual performance, and not just standing there singing. YEs its a singing competition but if you can sang AND have some moves, then that's just amazing. Love love love you Trenyce. Plus the dress is fieeeeeerce.
She is so cute I was so surpised to see she was from Memphis, TN. I'm from Greenville, MS and I used to love go to Memphis every year and can't wait to go again.
I've loved her since day 1. Treynce can sing (obviously) yes! But she knows how to work a crowd, has crazy stage presence...and it's no wonder she's still a working performer today living her dream. BRAVO!
Season two was, by far, the best season. Trenyce, Clay, Ruben, and Kimberly Locke could have all won and it would have been deserved. Had they all been on separate seasons, they all could have been winners.
She was Great! I still remember that Simon called this performancea "Drag Act". I was bad but funny haha! Trenyce will always be one of the best voice on AI. If she had been in some other season she could've won...
You should search for: Proud Mary Nathalie Makoma. She's on Dutch Idols now and let me tell you: SHE IS ON FIRE THERE! Watch it. And this woman is very good too
yeah her and ruben were in the bttm 2 that night top 5! I acutally thought ruben was going home she was much better the night before! But Josh should have gone home that night too
I hope she's out there doing something with her voice, because it's be a damn shame if she wasn't. I know she toured with Aida for a bit, but I don't know if she's done anything since then.
The Backround singer sounded freaky, but she was awesom. Tina Turner obviously has the best version, but great. I can't belive she did both her songs great that night.
Simon Cowell is really more into singers like Susan Boyle and very “Broadway” types of singing. Trenyce’s singing maybe too raw, real & American for his British taste. Notice how Paula and Randy appreciated her style much more. For some of her best tho… check out the vid “Trenyce Baby Grand”
There's actually no judges because the video I have dosen't have them. Both Paula and Randy really liked it simom didin't, I thought it was amazing. Though I did like Syesha's better.
@rustydevilll Pia's great, too, but at least she was appreciated. Trenyce sang her ass of every week and the only person who gave her any credit was Paula. Meanwhile, all Simon could do is make snide remarks about how she looks like a drag queen and has no personality.
One of the many singers on this show that got screwed. She was one of the best that year. Josh Gracin only got the sympathy vote and eliminated Trenyce because he was in the Armed Services that year. His two performances were terrible. This was the 4th screw job on the show. First, Tamyra Gray, 1st season, next it was Frenchie Davis, then Corey Clark. Man I was pissed when Josh stayed over Trenyce. Simon's comments were way off base. Judge her performance, delivery, not her outfit.
In Simon Cowell's book "I Don't Mean to Be Rude" he states that the makeup crew and all the crew applauded when Trenyce was eliminated because she was such a $*(#*(. You can tell she is.
justess martin he also apologized to me for spreading salacious gossip to sell books. The HMU didn’t know how to represent women of color on tv. The vocal coach (Byrd) had to step in and find my own HMU team and they called me a diva based on that. I know your post is old but the truth is never late. I hope this post finds you having a beautiful start to your 2019! Cheers! ☺️🙏🏾🎉
@larkpraise: Who actually reads books written by Simon Cowell? (Oh I see, from your channel page… people who listen to Lawrence Welk….) Nice slander try though, but seriously, Trenyce comes across 10,ooo times “nicer” than Larkpraise (who is so quick to call everyone a B*^!# ) or Simon Cowell (who made his fame and fortune by being mean and judgmental). Lighten up anyway, it's just music! Peace.

Still the best version of "Proud Mary" ever on Idol...
To me, this was her BEST performance ever! Loved it!!!
This gave me huge chills when I saw it live. Awesome performance and in only 1:30!
Love this girl!
Love her dress!
I like Trenyce!
great voice the best of the best!
she has much power i like it very much

LOVEE, WAW!!!!
Seeing this live was just as great! She was the best performance next to Kimberly Locke's "Somewhere over the rainbow"
amazing performance ;]
Trenyce Tickets!!!
Another performance light years better than any of this year's group.
I haven't seen any Idol contestant who can top her performance when it comes to "Proud Mary" :)
wow, thats power !
u go girl..love the dress it is so hot..
Arsenio Hall is back! Great job, give props to the doghouse singing backup!
She was Great! I still remember that Simon called this performancea "Drag Act". I was bad but funny haha! Trenyce will always be one of the best voice on AI. If she had been in some other season she could've won...
ya mne i like this version so bad
You should search for: Proud Mary Nathalie Makoma. She's on Dutch Idols now and let me tell you: SHE IS ON FIRE THERE! Watch it.
And this woman is very good too
Trenyce did it best!
I want Jessica to win this season though!
i agree and i felt the same when Jennifer Hudson was eliminated.
She was very good & I hope she has been given a break recording or performing elsewhere!
yeah her and ruben were in the bttm 2 that night top 5! I acutally thought ruben was going home she was much better the night before! But Josh should have gone home that night too
She should've won hands down
I hope she's out there doing something with her voice, because it's be a damn shame if she wasn't. I know she toured with Aida for a bit, but I don't know if she's done anything since then.
It's a classic - Ike & Tina Turner.
The Backround singer sounded freaky, but she was awesom. Tina Turner obviously has the best version, but great. I can't belive she did both her songs great that night.
theres no commentary because the person who posted it doesn't want anyone to hear it. simon ate her alive.
@wicaco no.. i think that was pia.
Too short!
i remember when she left and everyone thought that it was going to be that josh dude i think that was his name she made it to top4? i think?

simon was reminded of a drag act
Ha I totally forgot about that girl lol
@rustydevilll Pia's great, too, but at least she was appreciated. Trenyce sang her ass of every week and the only person who gave her any credit was Paula. Meanwhile, all Simon could do is make snide remarks about how she looks like a drag queen and has no personality.

it's not that. she admitted it from the start anyway.
i believe simon called this fantastic did he not? yet he told syesha NOTHING positive, and hers was so much better

She does not go with Proud Mary.

Most robbed contestant ever? I think so.
i hated it!I like Syesha much better
