I've always said Tom Jones could have sung opera. Listen to him do "Motherless Child".It's great.

This is the smart move. So many female singers get that surprise wakeup call when the big M shows up and basically gives a big middle finger to your vocal cords. And they don't plan for it. I've heard some folks sing far too past their sell by date with huge wobbles you can drive a truck through.
Blythe has sung Handel for ages, which really opens that lower register.
