Will Vanessa Carlton live down her potty-mouth Epcot performance?

Ms. Carlton should have remembered this photo, perhaps, and kept her mouth shut between her songs at Epcot.
So, I’ve been out of the country for two weeks, come back, and my Disney friends are STILL abuzz about singer Vanessa Carlton’s onstage cursing at Epcot.
The singer, mainly known for pop hit ”A Thousand Miles,” was a guest performer during the Eat to the Beat concert series during Epcot’s Food & Wine Festival.
By all accounts, she gave lackluster performances. Some of my friends described the scene as she sat at her piano, hair drooping in her face, muttering to herself and never even made eye contact with the audience. Among the worst Epcot performances ever, one friend declared.
At that performance, Carlton did more than mutter — she audibly used the “sh” word a few times, shocking my friends.
In a later show — she apparently dropped the F-bomb, which is when Disney pulled the plug and cancelled her next night’s performances.
Didn’t her momma raise her better than that?
But, seriously, we are trying to think of any other act that was not invited back to Disney because of bad conduct. Anyone out there know of other stars to join Vanessa’s Hall of Shame?

Mario Lopez texting onstage during Candlelight Processional.
Ooh, ooh! Sh- and F-. Ooh, I’m so scared! Grow up people.
You must be trailer trash to think that this kind of language is acceptable anywhere. Ugh.
Sounds like you are the one that needs to grow up…only dirtbag teenagers think using the F word in public is ok.
Dave, go back to Bithlo and let the educated people post here. Only white bread degenerate trailer trash thinks using vulgar language in public is acceptable.
Let’s see….
I think it was Nancy Kerrigan who was caught saying the Disney parade she was is grand marshaling was “corny”, “dumb” and “I hate this”
Of course Michael Jackson losing Capt. Eo after His legal issue with the kiddies.
Oh and Jeffery Jones (Ferris Bueller’s Day Off Principal) as Chairman Clench in Alien Encounter which was suddenly (planned to close) closed after HIS child porn um…encounter.
S- and F- are the least of Disney’s worries when it comes to performers. We must remember that skanks like Brittney and Miley are Disney products!
I thought Disney protected our Kids from this slime. She needs the BOOT.
Bring back Jonny Lang!
Dave, You seriously can’t think it’s ok to use that kind of language in a family atmosphere. Disney is a place where families take their children and they expect higher quality performances. I would not like it if my niece started saying Sh- and F- because she heard an artist say those words at Disney.
Vanessa should not be allowed back…period.
Using language like that makes people sound illiterate anyway…
No, Dave, I’m not scared – just decent.
Nancy Kerrigan
Sitting beside Mickey, she was heard to remark, “This is so corny. This is so dumb. I hate it. This is the most corny thing I’ve ever done.”
The only other one I knew about was Mario Lopez and the texting incident.
The classic Paul “Pee Wee Herman” Rubens and Mel Gibson together in an early MGM studios backstage tour video.
We heard it too at her concert. F-bomb
Peter and Gordon were even better then she was.
