Of course Im a karaoke superstar. Because I dont let myself forget for a second that as soon as I take the mic, Im supposed to be providing entertainment for every person in the room. Its not about singing ability. No one cares if you can sing. If you can sing, great, but singing is incidental. Its about putting on a show. If you have to turn yourself into the female equivalent of Meatloaf or Iggy Pop, by all means, go for it. Just dont be boring. And theres nothing sadder than someone singing in earnest at a karaoke bar.
Song selection
Pick something you can dance to. That way, you can make up for poor singing ability with awesome dance moves. If you can neither dance nor sing, you can always take your clothes off. Also, people who choose songs that are somehow race or gender-inappropriate almost always get a reaction from the audience.
Dance breaks
Sometimes I cant think of anything to do during the dance breaks. Don't panic if this happens. Just start doing the Running Man, even if it's a slow song. Its lame, I know, but people fucking love it.
Wardrobe
Girls should wear something revealing to get the audience on their side.
Alcohol
I turn Southern when Im drunk. I mean, I start talking with a Southern accent. I dont know why this happens since Im originally from California, but it doesnt help my singing. Some of you may need to drink so you may embarrass yourself in public more readily, but I dont recommend drinking to the point of losing control of your voice.
Drugs
Uppers, not downers, or youre flirting with disaster.
