background singers (as promised)

so i googled "background singers" and was pleased to see that the following hits came up. the first one was for gospelflava.com and an interview with queenie lenox. the second was a website requesting background singers for shows in las vegas. the third hit was siting a quote by della reese which mentioned the background singers of ray charles, smokey robinson, and barry white, and the 8th hit was talking about background singers for kanye west. other hits mentioned college courses at berkley for background singers, background singers needed on a uk website for christian artists, and a grammy website which was discussing the need for background singers to look their best. so, i have concluded the following: to be a background singer is not only important, but is also my christian/gospel obligation as is my obligation to be in las vegas shows, be concerned with fashion and education, sing with famous soul artists, and say such intelligent things as "bah dah bah dah, bah dah bah dah Bah dah bah dah, bah dah bah" when singing along with my kanye west compact disc. lots of responsibility if you ask me. and, with that long list of obligations i would say it is not only worth getting paid for, but it's definitely worth the effort.

By back up singer for Kanye West do they mean girl wearing tight revealing clothing and shakin it? Or is it more along the lines of "No I don't know what sexy is, but I can add up the change in your purse really fast."

it was probably more like that sexy squeaky voice that sings "it was me" and "peek-a-boo" in the "alpha step" song. i'm gonna put ish down.
