Musical Abigail Barlow took the stage at a recent award show dressed as a mermaid, complete with her bright red fishnet stockings and a giant fishtail, as she sang a duet with her partner in crime, Emily Brown. After a short break, Barlow was back on stage with a sultry look in her eyes, singing a slow-tempo version of “Tired of Being Red,” performed with the sexy accent of Kelly Clarkson. The audience loved Barlow’s energetic performance, especially when she launched into a blistering rendition of “What Would You Do with a Little Girl Who’s Just Like Me.” Barlow, who wears her hair in spikes, wore a simple black dress shirt with fishnet stockings and looked stunning. She teamed her red swimsuit with a white blouse. As for nationality, Barlow is British, while singer Emily Brown is American.

Social Media: During the talk show, Barlow discussed the benefits of social media, particularly Twitter, in terms of being able to connect with fans and followers. She cited a common problem that young performers face, which is being able to connect with their own fans, but not with corporate executives or A-list celebrities. Barlow made a witty comment about how it would have been easier for Abigail to meet Matt Damon if they had kept their personal lives secret, saying that it’s like putting out a classified ad on the Internet. Barlow concluded by urging young women to tweet about their own life experiences, sharing positive stories, and posting links to their own music videos or websites where they could share more information.

Creativity: Barlow demonstrated a quick mind, creating several interesting tweets about her own height and what she sees as negative stereotypes about taller women. In one notable tweet, she mentioned that she likes the fact that she’s not a professional dancer, and she has never appeared in a costume in a dancing video. Barlow has made several interesting comments on Twitter in relation to the height issue, and she is clearly a fan of the entertainment and beauty industry. Barlow might need to take a look at herself in the mirror, because she might be doing more for society by creating her own positive social media stories, rather than focusing on negativity.
