TV Review: Rock the Cradle - Week 6 - The Grand Finale

Written by Alexandria Jackson
Published May 08, 2008

MTV's reality series Rock the Cradle pitted the children of superstar musicians against one another to determine who had what it takes to be the next rock star.
This week was the Grande Finale!
The nine original celebrity offspring featured on Rock the Cradle were:

Olivia Newton-John's daughter Chloe Rose Lattanzi
Kenny Loggins' son Crosby Loggins
Joe Walsh's (The Eagles) daughter Lucy Walsh
Al B. Sure's son Lil Al B. Sure
Dee Snider's (Twisted Sister) son Jesse Blaze Snider
Tom Johnston's (Doobie Brothers) daughter Lara Johnston
MC Hammer's daughter Akeiba Burrell Hammer and
Bobby Brown's son Landon Brown.

Jesse Money was voted off after Week 1.
Akeiba Hammer was voted off after Week 2.
Lil B. Sure and Landon Brown were voted off after Week 3.
Lara Johnston and Lucy Walsh were voted off after Week 4.

Crosby Loggins began the show tonight singing "Steady as She Goes." He can clearly hear the symphony of any piece of music and he feels it in his soul. Crosby is the consummate musician.

Chloe Lattanzi sang, "Should I Stay or Should I Go" in her cool nasally voice. She appeared to enjoy performing this song, which seems an unusual choice in this series. I hope she chose this song herself.

Jesse Blaze Snider, with his hair in a crazy Mohawk, sang "I Wan'na Be Like You"
(The Monkey Song) from The Jungle Book. He appropriately danced just like a monkey.

The performers were then required to perform an encore of their parent's biggest hits with their folks.

Jesse had to sing, "We're Not Gonna Take It" with his father. Any time he must sing a song in which he has to hold a note, you can tell he has no vocals. He has not approached his father's talent in this arena.

Chloe sang "I Honestly Love You" which she also sang in week 3. This time, Olivia Newton-John sang with her. It was beautiful. Their voices are so different yet somehow blend perfectly.

Crosby already has an album out and it's great!

You can also purchase it on iTunes and listen to a few more songs on his myspace.

Congrats Crosby!!!

If you think Chloe's voice is "intriguing and unique" I have a cat whose midnight meowings you will go crazy for.
