Comments ranged from the sarcastic "Go girl, give us nothing" and the playful jab "Is the performance in the room with us?" to more pointed critiques like "I've always said she's an incredibly lazy performer.....she never took the time to improve her performances." Despite the negative backlash, some fans expressed their enduring love for the singer, even as they lamented the performance's "lackluster" quality, with remarks highlighting a perceived history of subpar performances, leaving them unsurprised by the recent turn of events.
