...Eddie Vedder--he gave a thoughtful and well-acted performance. Corona had a lovely mid-range vibrato, along with some excellent breath control in tricky solos. However, Benaim, a splendid baritone who made another Dunster appearance as a soloist in the December "Messiah," stole the show with his gorgeous interpretation of the sinister machinations of four separate villains. He hammed it up, all the while supporting a richly textured, well-trained voice...
Someone called him the Elvis of sport because he was a crossover pioneer, sexy and gorgeous, who forced the public to rethink its view of his form of entertainment.

All five are toned, energetic and attractive, though not overwhelmingly lovely. Perhaps it's because they are just shy of gorgeous that they are so popular: they are earthly beings, approachable, and could almost exist in real life, unlike, say, Christy Turlington. The Spice Girls range in age from 21 to 25. There's Mel B., with her curly hair and pierced tongue; cool, unsmiling Victoria; Mel C., with her dark locks...
