Pontiac cruisers were in awe Saturday afternoon–and it had nothing to do with a classic car.
Lady Soul, a 57-year-old Pontiac resident, belted out “Turn Me On” by Norah Jones at a karaoke contest in Pontiac’s Phoenix Center and advanced to the competition final at 7 p.m. tonight.
Lady Soul said she’s a karaoke veteran and has never sung professionally.
“It puts joy in my heart,” she said. “I like people to feel what I feel.
The judges thought she was so impressive that they invited her for an encore performance–”At Last” by Etta James.
Lady Soul’s son, Kenneth Betty, owns a 1979 Trans Am and said he and his mother love the variety of cars at the show.
