American Idol: Season 5

[golden braid]

So I thought the girls were pretty boring last night. The kept singing these serious songs and none of the judges seemed to be too impressed. I think I enjoyed Kelly the most not because she had great vocals but she picked a good, upbeat, entertaining song. I think Heather and Brenna will be gone this week. Neither was too good.

I only got to see Brenna and Paris. Brenna was terrible, Paris was good but boring song, zzzzzzzzzz...

[skcin]

Dull dull dull. :rolleyes:

Kelly, Mandisa & Melissa were great.

Ayla, Paris & Lisa were OK, but kind of drab.

Heather & Kinnik were boring as hell.

Brenna & Katherine sucked. Kind of upset about Katherine, she was great last week. :shurg:

I think Brenna & Kinnik will be out.

[JazmenFlowers]

we are on the same wavelength here. I totally agree...just not a good night for the girls as a whole. Mandisa (still my favorite) picked the wrong song, I think and she did have a few "off" notes, but she held it together.

[jannieC]

The girls were awfully dull last night.

Katharine- still my favorite female, even though she was boring last night.

Brenna- Bye bye!

Heather- Maybe bye for her, too. She was awful. Pretty, though.

Kelly Pickler- full of sh*t. Seriously- she is taking this southern redneck schtick a little too far.


I thought Melissa was pretty good. I think a guy is going to win this year, and I think it will be between Taylor, Elliott, and Chris.

[JazmenFlowers]

Katharine- still my favorite female, even though she was boring last night.
and she hit some bad notes
Brenna- Bye bye!
god I hope so - I can't stand her. I've been giving her the TV evil eye since day one.
Heather- Maybe bye for her, too. She was awful. Pretty, though.
she has the thickest neck, next to Melissa I think I've ever seen...
Kelly Pickler- full of sh*t. Seriously- she is taking this southern redneck schtick a little too far.
I think so too...but I still think she's really cute. I wonder if she's faking a lot of it. Did anyone notice she had on Jessica Simpson's line footwear? Maybe she's got another kind of idol in mind.
I thought Melissa was pretty good. I think a guy is going to win this year, and I think it will be between Taylor, Elliott, and Chris.
Melissa will go really far I think. Dykes (and I say that with love and respect, no one get offended) everywhere are probably using text messaging for the first time. I hope Ace or Mandisa win this year.

I agree completely with everything you said. Heather and Brenna need to go. Lisa and Kellie were the best, though I hate to admit it because neither are favorites of mine. Melissa wasn't too bad either. Katharine was totally dull--I was really disappointed. I usually always vote, but no one was good enough to inspire me to pick up the phone last night. Next week I hope they sing more upbeat songs.

[Sorceress]

I think Brenna & Kinnik will be out.

The whole cowgirl schtick didn't work for Kinnik. It didn't seem authentic compared to her normal glamorous drag queen vibe. She can really sing though, so she should stay maybe another week.

What is it with all these people doing country? Are they trying to ride Carrie's coattails?

[cliffdweller]

Kelly Pickler- full of sh*t. Seriously- she is taking this southern redneck schtick a little too far.

Yup. She is totally overdoing it and playing dumb which is just stupid, but I guess she has a little "persona" she can play up so that she doesn't get lost in the crowd like some of the other girls. The tall basketball playing girl, the other bleach blonde (not Kelly) and the husky voiced girl (can't remember what she sang) are like vanilla to me, bleh, boring.

I am all about Mandisa. Girl can sing, I hope she wins the whole competition! I don't like Wind Beneath My Wings, but Paris can sing, and I thought she did a good job. Livia, I agree with you, the first girl who performed last night is one of my faves too. Why can't I remember any names?? :laugh:

And who knew being from NC made you Southern? She is on crack for saying that.

[ontheEdgeof17]

My order of favs from last night:

Pickler (...and I usually dont like her)
Mandisa
Lisa
Ayla
Paris
Melissa
Katherine
Kinnik
Brenna
Heather

[jannieC]

ARe you serious about this??? :eek:

....serious as genital herpes on paris hilton.

NC is not southern.

[DavidMn]

....serious as genital herpes on paris hilton.

NC is not southern.SO doyou have a pick to win the whole thing yet?

[jannieC]

....serious as genital herpes on paris hilton.

NC is not southern.

I beg to differ. I mean, do you mean <i>technically</i> (as in north/south of the Mason-Dixon line) or mentality-wise?

Unbelievably, I am in full agreement with Brandon on this one!!! ;) I've lived in NC for almost 13 years, and I feel confident in saying the mentality is southern. Oh, and Curtis- the Paris comment- LOLOLOL :]

Ayla and Heather bore me to death. Brenna is incredibly annoying...I hope she gets the boot.

Yeah, they're both blonde, cute, and Southern. I always thought Carrie was a wooden performer, though.

[Sorceress]

My votes went to Gedeon, Elliott, and Chris tonight. Bucky wasn't so bad either. I really really hate David--I don't think I can stand to hear him another week. And I'm sad to say that Taylor was disappointing tonight.

[ontheEdgeof17]

And I'm sad to say that Taylor was disappointing tonight.

He was absolutely terrible. One of the worst vocals on the show ever. :shocked: In actuality, he should go home for that, but he probably won't.

[Patti]

I thought Chris gave the best performance by far of everyone. He was great! I didn't think Taylor was great this week, but I wouldn't call it the worst performance ever. Not by a long shot.

[wondergirl9847]

1. Chris (love his gravelly voice)
2. Gedeon (I don't care how unpopular he seems to be, I really like him)
3. Elliot (Most consistent vocally)

Others:

Will (like his tone, even though he picks boring songs. He mentioned Justin. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!)
Kevin (likable hobbit with weird lisp-y voice)
Bucky (seems nice, but eh)
David (I love crooners, but sheebus. Seems like a really great, nice guy tho)
Taylor (he's not picking interesting songs, but I like him)
Sway (Ugh. Go home please, thanks)

Who the frick is the 10th?

[golden braid]

1. Chris (love his gravelly voice)
Who the frick is the 10th?
Ace.

I love Chris. I think he should win. I can totally see him singing with a band and doing songs that would actually be on the radio and be cool.

Normally I like Taylor but he wasn't very good tonight.

Elliot's good but he needs to keep gaining confidence and be more outgoing.

I think David and Kevin need to go even though they seem very likeable.

[ThePenguin]

Ace.

I love Chris. I think he should win. I can totally see him singing with a band and doing songs that would actually be on the radio and be cool.

I was going to write everything you wrote above LOL. I'll add to it that Ace could have been much better, althouhg he sure is easy on the eyes. :rolleyes: IMO Chris was by far the best performer of the night.

Chris rocked and I love that song, its been on loop in my head ever since the performance. Kevin was terrible. Taylor was disappointing - altogether the wrong song for him. Will looks like Peter Brady. For those like me who've been having trouble with the names may I present http://www.idolonfox.com/contestants/.

[cliffdweller]

Ace, Peter Brady, Kevin, and Crooner all sucked! They need the boot. And what's with a 16 year old singing "Lady" anyway? That was absolutely ridiculous. I laughed and laughed.

Taylor, man, I'm rooting for him but that performance was not all that great. I love that song though.

Gideon, Elliott, and Chris were the best. Chris's performance was outstanding.

I thought Sway did a good job and I don't normally like him! I thought the judges were waaaaay too critical of his performance. I mean, they trashed it basically and then let little hobbit gnome (Kevin) off with a slap on the wrist (he MURDERED I Heard it Through the Grapevine btw). I thought Sway sounded just like Stevie Wonder :shrug:.

[wondergirl9847]

Ace.

The most popular one and I forgot him. :laugh:

Forgettable.

I agree. I thought they were going to really go after Kevin because his performance was awful and they didn't. I thought Sway sounded a little like Stevie Wonder too and I think that was the problem according to the judges. Sway needed to put his own touch to the song and he didn't.

[Livia]

BTW there's only one person left from the Austin audiditons. Whats with the singers in Texas anyhoo?:lol:

Austin is a town full of music snobs, including myself. Most serious musicians/singers around here wouldn't dream of subjecting themselves to such schlock. :)

[cliffdweller]

It's funny because whenever some people try to put their own touch on an established song the judges go after them with pitchforks, but then when other contestants try to live up to the original vocals of the song they're covering the Judges cry foul because it sounds too much like the original. Their comments are not consistent. My real feeling is that there are certain people by this time in the competition that they're sick of and want out of there, and this is their way to get them out.

[gldstwmn]

Agreed. From last night and the night before's comments, I would say they want Frank Sinatra guy and the snotty "America gets to decide" girl to go.

[gldstwmn]

And I'm sad to say that Taylor was disappointing tonight.

He's starting to get on my nerves. He's constantly mugging for the camera and the Ray Charles schtick is getting old on him.

[cliffdweller]

Ugh Brenna :rolleyes: That girl has got to go. She is not only the bitchiest girl in the competition, she doesn't even have any talent to back it up. There is nothing that is even remotely interesting about that girl.

And Sinatra guy, I can't watch him. He cannot sing, has no range, and doesn't even do a good imitation of the music he is butchering. He is totally whoreanus.

You took that post directly out of my head, dear! ITA with your review. :)

[ontheEdgeof17]

Here's how I liked them:

Chris
Elliot
Gedeon
Will
Ace
Bucky
David (sucks...I bet he can sing 'normal')
Kevin (eh)
Sway (boring....I'M SICK OF STEVIE WONDER SONGS!)
Taylor (he's on my nerves. never did like his get-up)

[jannieC]

And Sinatra guy, I can't watch him. He cannot sing, has no range, and doesn't even do a good imitation of the music he is butchering. He is totally whoreanus.
Heh- my husband feels the same way. He totally could not even watch this kid sing. LOL :laugh:

[bikerchic]

Is this Nashville Star or American Idol? Enough with the country crap. Does anyone know any other song then Stevie Wonder's? Yuk. Thank god I can't vote! I am so sick of Paula and Randy saying the same **** over and over again. I'm sorry but I've tuned out this season. Bring on Rock Star, at least they sing some half decent music.

[Sorceress]

I don't know what happened. Last week I would have said that the song selections were better than they have been in the past. More rock songs (like Mandisa with Heart) and fewer boy-band wannabes. But this week? Ugh. I agree. Though I didn't mind Bucky's version of Garth Brooks. And I hate Garth Brooks. People, just because you are from the South you do not have to represent (as they're all saying) by singing Country!

[JazmenFlowers]

I am so sick of Stevie Wonder songs...****! I thought they were just as boring as the girls, except for Chris and Elliot. Ace was fine, as usual, but he really worked the camera a bit much.

here's my list in order:

Chris - awesome...the best of both nights
Elliot - very smooth voice. I like him, but lord he ain't nothin' to look at.
Ace - he must stay simply to look at. he's got a nice voice but boy is it thin
Bucky - he seems like such a sweet country boy. I want to see what else he can do.
Gedeon - don't like him, but he has a nice originality
Will and David - love them...they are by no means the best, but I just love to look and listen to them...I like David more
Sway - yuck...me no likey
Kevin - he's just a little joke...I feel bad for him, let him go already
Taylor - sick of that cajun, bayou yipping and yelling during his songs and his terret's is really acting up these days

[bikerchic]

Taylor - sick of that cajun, bayou yipping and yelling during his songs and his terret's is really acting up these days
You mean Taylor Tick? :laugh:

[cliffdweller]

You mean Taylor Tick? :laugh:


Awww, come on now. Granted, his mugging and yelping are getting a bit annoying but I think he's one of the only people in this competition who truly loves what he sings, and he likes good music. He likes good old fashioned soul music which is really cool. However, he hasn't yet proven that he's a strong enough singer to win this competition so he better step it up a notch!

[DavidMn]

You think Taylor is annoying? what about that LAME crooner that sang Sinatra last night?!?!:rolleyes: BUH-BYE!!!! Sway's gone too think.

[bikerchic]

I agree. Ace must stay. To simply look at. Man, he would look good on the back of my bike :laugh: Come to mama. Dear lord, please do not let him be gay or have a criminal record.

Preach it. Just because they are in a cowboy hat and wearing boots and singing a hick song, doesn't mean they are 'representin'. Drives.me.insane.

[Sorceress]

Okay, so Paula was high as sh*t and Simon was messing with her, trying to make her look like an idiot. Not that she needs much help, but wow. Did ya'll SEE her explain why Heather and Kinnik were in the bottom two? "Because one ate pizza and the other one had a salad." And the advice she gave to Sway and Kevin was too incoherent to repeat. Baffling and embarrassing.

[Patti]

Paula needs to be in rehab yesterday. She is quite an embarrassment.

I'm glad Heather and Brenna are gone. But I wish Bucky would have gone instead of either of the two guys. Not that I liked David or Sway necessarily, but Bucky gets on my last nerve, right down to his name. I hope he doesn't make the finals at the very least.

[Red]

Mmmmm, you're right, Ace MUST stay. *drool*
I have an absurd junior high style crush on him- but sans the beanie. And the pants.:rolleyes:

[cliffdweller]

I was upset that they sent Sway home and not Kevin. Kevin has no right to have gotten this far in the competition. He can't sing, period. I mean what is it, is he just getting the sympathy votes or what? Lame.

Oh, and buh-bye David and Brenna, you two suck like nobody's business.

Oh, and buh-bye David and Brenna, you two suck like nobody's business.

Maybe Vote for the Worst strikes again?

David and Brenna were awful. Good riddance.

[skcin]

I'm happy with who's off, but I really think Sway had potential. Oh well.

Paula? Wow. :shocked: She was really, really bad last night. I know we all joke around that she's high & looks odd lately, but wow. She was truly messed up last night.

[wondergirl9847]

David - seems like a super nice guy and I like that he's got an "old soul", but he didn't show versatility and he wasn't that strong of a singer. Maybe in a few years, he can follow in Harry and Michael's footsteps. :) He was a cutie, for sure.

Sway - I don't think he connected with people. Plus, his voice wasn't very strong or unique.

Heather - Huh? Wha? Sorry, don't remember her.

Brenna - Act like a beyotch and people will hate you. Bye bye.

Oh and Paula....just say no. :shocked:

[JazmenFlowers]

have I not been saying this? :laugh:

the woman is messed up. last night her eyes were half open and she was being extremely RUDE when these people were being kicked off the show. it was just horrible. I felt so bad for them. Glad Heather and Brenna are gone, but I really wanted David and Sway to stay.

She's really looped. It's embarrassing. I felt bad for the contestants, too.

:nod: yup. That was really insensitive of her, but then again, she was high as a kite. I can't believe AI let's her go on the air so completely f*cked up, you'd think they'd intervene or something.

Edit: Oh, and could Ace be a bigger himbo? Has everyone else noticed his vacant looks into the camera as he's trying to woo the American public? :laugh::laugh: I'll say this for 'ole Ace, he's damn entertaining in all the wrong ways!

[JazmenFlowers]

I would need to be ****ed up, too to be a judge on that show. They have heard some horrible ****. A blunt would have done wonders.

Rock on, Paula...Rock on....

[cliffdweller]

I kind of thought Randy and Simon knew it and were trying to "cover" up for her.


I thought Simon was trying to f*ck with her on purpose because he KNEW she was messed up. He was having some fun with her.

She's also thinking: "Top 12 boys this year! Top 12 boys this year!" :)

[golddustwoman77]

The only thing I have to say about this season's idol is that this is the worst talent that they have ever had on the show. If this is the best they (Simon, Paula, and Randy) could find, several people I know need to try out. I have heard many people say the same thing that I have been thinking. Does anyone else notice this?

I'll second that motion.

[jannieC]

I wonder if there is any video out there of last night's show. I didn't get home until five minutes before it ended, so I totally didn't get to see Paula acting so f*cked up. :(

Oh and by the way I really hope Taylor comes up with a great song/performance next week as he is losing popularity very quickly!

[gldstwmn]

Okay, so Paula was high as sh*t and Simon was messing with her, trying to make her look like an idiot. Not that she needs much help, but wow. Did ya'll SEE her explain why Heather and Kinnik were in the bottom two? "Because one ate pizza and the other one had a salad." And the advice she gave to Sway and Kevin was too incoherent to repeat. Baffling and embarrassing.

Yeah, I couldn't figure out what that was all about. Did you see Simon staring at her boobs the other night? :laugh:

I was sad to see Sway go. And as Simon predicted, David and Brenna are out. :thumbsup:

funny when P said "hey" to Ace and
Simon said "watch out paula" and she said "huh?"

my vote remains chris for guys
but girls has changed to ayla

No, but the **** she's smokin' can. :laugh: JK - I've no idea.

I wouldn't worry too much yet. I called for him, Chris, Gedeon, Bucky & Elliot Wedneday night & I couldn't get through for Taylor or Chris until almost 11pm.


Yeah, I couldn't figure out what that was all about. Did you see Simon staring at her boobs the other night? :laugh:

Yup. She had those things sitting on the table in front of her on display. :shocked:

[bikerchic]

No, but the **** she's smokin' can. :laugh: JK - I've no idea.

[DavidMn]

:laugh: Do you suppose this is just another publicity stunt, just to get people talking and tuning in, you know, I gotta watch next week to see if Paula is stoned?I hallf expect to see her tokin on a doobie next week on the air.:lol:

[cliffdweller]

Heee. Simon is my favorite.


Mine too. Simon is the only who makes any sense on that show. Ryan Seacrest makes me want to kick him in the nuts sometimes. What's with this: "so, do you think you're in the bottom three these week?" **** he was pulling with the guys? I mean, hello Ryan, nobody wants to answer that stupid question, and where would you even begin? It's like he constantly needles the contestants until he ferrets out the answer he's looking for :rolleyes:. And am I the only one who noticed David aggressively snatching the microphone away from Ryan before he sang his swan song last night? I think he had had enough of Ryan.

[DavidMn]

As far as the people kicked off last night, I thought America got it right with one exception. I was reall surprised Kevin was in the bottom 3 instead of Will. I couldnt figure that one.:confused:

[Sorceress]

:laugh: Do you suppose this is just another publicity stunt, just to get people talking and tuning in, you know, I gotta watch next week to see if Paula is stoned?

I wonder too. They must have known she was high before they went on air and no one made any attempt to keep her from talking. I think Ryan even asked her a direct question or two. Simon was feeding her those asinine things to say, trying to see how much he would get her to repeat. That was certainly calculated on his part.

[Livia]

Mmmkay, I'm caught up now - I half expected to see Paula mouth "call me" to Ace. And who could blame her if she did?

Fortune cookie? Corn? Melons? WTF? I'm lost....

Yup, the boys are definitely more talented than the girls this season.

[Sorceress]

I officially love Mandisa. I really do. Katharine didn't do badly either, though she looked like she had just walked in from the grocery store, or class, or a trip to the mall. She didn't look bad, but I guess I'm expecting some attempt at style. I suppose I should appreciate that she doesn't look like she was attacked by crazed stylists like some of the others do. :laugh: Paris was disappointing and Lisa was BORING. Can those two pick a decent song please?

Ayla and Kinnik were the worst tonight, though probably it will be Melissa and Kinnik going home. Though I like her, I have to say that Melissa had a look of desperation to her tonight when she was performing.

[GypsySorcerer]

Mandisa was the best, by far. Kinnik and Ayla/Melissa will probably go. Simon is right about Kellie. She isn't the greatest singer, but will stick around because of her looks and personality.

[jannieC]

I am almost to the point that I can't watch Kellie Pickler-- she is SO full of sh*t. I think she is desperate to have a "schtick" because she really isn't that great of a singer. Unfortunately for me, she will probably be on this damn show for the rest of the season. :(

[JazmenFlowers]

honestly, I'm bored with the whole show, except for Chris and Ace. the people on this show really aren't anything special. Mandisa is great, but I noticed last night that I could pick up on something missing in her voice...she's belting, that's for sure, but it seems like she has a limited range or something...I don't know what it is, but there's a lack of something there. The rest of the girls can eat it, as far as I'm concerned. Some are better than others, but none are worthy of a title like AI, imo. It's just a bad season. I don't see anyone being consistent.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Well, Kinnick should definatelt go home...back to her 'southern roots' ;)


The other girl? That's up in the air.

Mandisa: LOVE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kelly: I can't believe Simon said he preferred her over Carrie Underwood. :eek: She does how more personality than Carrie did, that's for sure.
Ayla: I can take her, or leave her. Nothing Special. I did enjoy her performance last night, though. :nod:
Lisa: BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I want her to go home and fast. Her song choices are hideous.
Paris: Don't like her. She had a lot of talk for someone who really doesn't stand out.
Katherine: Big whoop. Great voice. Boring as hell.
Melissa: I like her. American should give her a chance and vote her through....(only to be dumped in finals week #1)

[JazmenFlowers]

Melissa: I like her. American should give her a chance and vote her through....(only to be dumped in finals week #1)
I like her too and I'd like to see what else she can do. Her confidence and pep need to pick up tho. One thing that I think about is how strained her voice already sounds (or maybe that's just how it sounds) - how is she going to be able to stand the rest of the competition, tour and all that if she wins?

and I'm noticing too that Paris isn't standing out to me anymore.

Katherine sucks. I can't stand her. Ayla, poor thing, looked like a damn praying mantis on that stage - she's just SO out of place. Lisa is way boring. She kind of favors Aaliyah, but girl needs to pick songs that don't make me want to kill myself. Kelly's ok. I don't really care one way or the other.

[cliffdweller]

I think Melissa (she's the one who sang Heart right?) has a cool, gravely voice. I like it. I also thought she did a good job with What About Love, which is a hard one to sing---not just anyone can pull it off, the vocals are brutal, so I give her props for attempting it and doing a good job.

Mandisa was outstanding again! I love her, and think she has the best personality out of each and every one of those other girls. Kellie Pickler is getting on my last nerve too Jannie, she has actually become grating. What she doesn't realize, while creating an image for herself, is that she's turning off quite a few people who see right through her dumb, southern blonde schtick and think it's stupid. When she said she had smoked salmon for the first time I was like :rolleyes: give me a break. Yeah, YOU never had salmon, sure, right. Ugh.

Looking forward, I wonder what Chris is going to sing tonight? I'm always interested to see/hear his performance. Oh, and little nerd needs to go. I am really starting to loathe him just for the fact that he continues to be voted through.

[golden braid]

When she said she had smoked salmon for the first time I was like :rolleyes: give me a break. Yeah, YOU never had salmon, sure, right. Ugh.
SaL-mon with the "L" not silent. I couldn't believe she pronounced it like that. :laugh:

I thought Mandisa was good and I also enjoyed Kelly and Melissa's performances. Kelly and Melissa aren't the best singers but the rest of the girls sing such boring songs that they really are forgettable even though they have good voices.

[cliffdweller]

SaL-mon with the "L" not silent. I couldn't believe she pronounced it like that. :laugh:

me too! I wonder if someone is coaching her to act so stupid :rolleyes:

the rest of the girls sing such boring songs that they really are forgettable even though they have good voices.

As Simon would say in his British accent: "Utterly Forgettable!"

yup, I'd say so too. I still kind of like Catherine McPhee...I don't know, she has some class to her that the rest don't have (except Mandisa). I think she's the most beautiful of the girls and I like that she doen't look like a bleach-blonde tanning bed junkie. I'm glad she did Aretha last night, but I don't like that song on her!

[ontheEdgeof17]

I still kind of like Catherine McPhee...


You like her so much, you know how to spell her name. :o :wavey:

[wondergirl9847]

I cannot STAND the Pickle. She's so frickin' fake. Bleck! "It's SAA-mon, b*tch!" (tm someone at TWoP :laugh: )

In fact, I could do without every single one of the girls. Bring on the guys tonight! My faves are still Chris, Elliot and Gedeon. I pray to God that Gedeon makes the final 6 because Kevin and Bucky are gaining a following and I might have to hurt people because of that. I might have to vote for him tonight..hope he brings it! I do like the Hobbit, but he needs to go home. Gedeon is more entertaining.

[jannieC]

me too! I wonder if someone is coaching her to act so stupid :rolleyes:




I really think this is true. I honestly think that some PR person is coaching her to act like an idiot. I think Kellie is shrewd and is working it the best way she knows how. Simon is upsetting me because surely he sees past her bullsh*t? I agree she has more personality than Carrie Underwood (who wouldn't?) but I cringe when I watch her speak. She’s making the South look stupid and I’m tired of her act. I heard somewhere that a restaurant in her hometown is serving Kellie Calamari on their menu. :gag:

I’ll tell you how I really feel about her another day. :o

[Sorceress]

Ayla, poor thing, looked like a damn praying mantis on that stage.

You're exactly right! I was trying to think of a way to describe what looked so strange about her. That's a perfect way to put it.

[skcin]

Well, Kinnick should definatelt go home...back to her 'southern roots' ;)

Aw, you ARE my soul mate! :wavey:

I thought Melissa rocked last night, so did Mandisa. I liked Katherine & Kellie too. I must say, I really don't think she's acting. I think she really is that dumb/naive/innocent. And for the record - I didn't try salmon until I was about 28. :o

My picks to go: Kinnik & Ayla.

[cliffdweller]

And for the record - I didn't try salmon until I was about 28. :o



That's cool, the thing is, Kellie acted like she didn't even know what it was. I think that's what pissed me off the most :laugh:

[cliffdweller]

Simon is upsetting me because surely he sees past her bullsh*t?


I know, that's weird. And he keeps giving Lisa props but criticizing her poor song choices. It's like, first they talk about how talented homegirl is then then sh*t on the songs she performs. Doesn't make sense. I thought she was beyond boring and forgettable, but Simon and Paula keep talking about how talented she is, and how she'll "sail through to the next round," despite the fact that her song choices suck and she's basically just boring up there. The judges should only give comments about the performance at hand, not about how talented someone is, I mean, if certain contestants keep doing sucky boring songs then how does that display their talent? It makes no sense.

exactly. then in the next breath complain about Ayla's song choice, even though they said it was a good choice for her...huh?

[wondergirl9847]

It's stupid because they keep saying for certain people that it's a SINGING contest...yet, they won't seem to comment on Pickle's "singing" only on how cute *running to toilet* she is or how charming *damn this bile! BRB* she is.

It's frustrating as frick when they are always talking out of both sides of their mouth. Back in Season 1, Simon crapped on Justin singing Sunny saying that he was "outsung by 3 gulls" when that is ridiculous because what if he had sung first that night? Why not judge him without bringing up the ol' yellers? :rolleyes:

Bitter much? Yes, yes I am. :wavey: :laugh:

[goldie]

Who was in lust with Ace's falsetto???

oh, that was nice, real, real nice. love him. love him.

[wondergirl9847]

Gedeon - I love him! Yeah, he talks weird, but he's got stage presence and a great ol' soul. I'm actually voting for him and ONLY him.

Taylor - Looked like he was being electrocuted. LOL I like him alright and I'm sure he'll be safe tomorrow night.

Chris - Eh, didn't know the song and he was just okay tonight for me. Still a fave though.

Elliot - I thought it was okay. I love that song. Can't believe he's 90% deaf in one ear.

Ace - PLEASE GOD, let him go home tomorrow!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!! I know he won't though. :mad:

Kevin, Bucky - It's time to go.

Will - Wasn't his best, but his voice is great and he's a cute lil guy. :)

'Zat all of 'em? :laugh:

[Sorceress]

Who was in lust with Ace's falsetto???

oh, that was nice, real, real nice. love him. love him.

I dunno. It was okay at first, and yes, he's certainly cute, but it hurt my ears after a while. I'm not sure why they keep telling him it's so good? But then again I somehow still find him boy-toyishly attractive. I'm so conflicted. :laugh:

I thought Gedeon and Taylor did the best tonight. I liked Chris, but I want to hear him sing some different kinds of songs. His voice reminds me of being in college, getting wasted to Pearl Jam or Live or something. But maybe all I really want is for him to just sing "Jeremy" or "I Alone" or "Flies in the Vaseline" while I rock out in my living room...Sorry for that trip down my own little memory lane. :)

At any rate, I hope Kevin and Peter Brady go tomorrow night.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Taylor is on my last nerve. I can't stand him.

Actually, I don't like any of the guys. They all can go home.

Chris and Bucky: Ugh...Overplayed voice that you hear over and over on the radio

Gedeon: I have to look away while he sings.

Kevin: Total statue...boring performances...boring vocals

Will: He's ok.

Ace: Poser.

Elliot: Weakest Performance.

[ThePenguin]

Gedeon - I love him! Yeah, he talks weird, but he's got stage presence and a great ol' soul. I'm actually voting for him and ONLY him.


I actually said to Marty 'I wonder if he had a speech impediment when he was young' because there is a 'different' quality to his speech, like he is making a conscious effort to form words correctly. My son is severely speech impaired so maybe my ears are more sensitive to things like this...i would consider it a huge blessing if Ben speaks like Gedeon someday. Another reason why the guy is starting to get more under my skin.
And he looked great in that pink shirt.

Ace-- the falsetto got old real quick. I'm so thinking he's gay now, my gay-dar is just going off constantly. does anyone else think this? he seems way too gentle and sensitive and kind to be straight. he is awfully nice to look at so i don't mind if he stays around awhile longer.

Chris-- couldn't get into that song. great singer though.

Taylor-- is losing a bit of weight and looks pretty hot when he's not spazzing around like a kid who needs his Ritalin. Good performance but the tics are out of control. :shocked:

no one else stood out enough for me to even comment on.

-Lis

[GypsySorcerer]

Ace -- Personally, I found the song annoying. He's cute, but I am still not that impressed vocally.

Chris -- My fave, though tonight wasn't his best.

Taylor -- Did a respectable job with the Doobies song, but the "moves" have got to go.

Bucky -- Eh.

Will -- Cute, but eh.

Elliott -- He did fairly well, but I don't get all the love for him.

Kevin -- Goodbye, please.

Gedeon -- I like him and his style.

[Kelly]

I see Taylor has started the "change". :laugh: I knew they would try to make him look younger and hipper if it looked like he was going to make the top twelve. The hair definately lost a bit of its gray. :laugh: The guys "dancing" was beyond annoying and he looked like an eight year old who needed his ritalin. Utterly ridiculous.

I like Chris but tonight was not his best performance.
Ace is a cute boy toy but vocally, I am not convinced. Lis, I do not think he is gay. He has a girlfriend who is a beautiful, black, model/actress. Someone posted a picture of the two on one of the boards. I believe it said they have been a couple for about a year or so. :wavey:

[jannieC]

Taylor is still my favorite. I don't know that he is really in control of his dance moves? He just seems so *into* his performances. But it could be a shtick like dummy Kellie. I hope not! :shocked:

I wonder about Ace, too (the gay thing). He is just adorable but he does seem a bit contrived, too.

I actually thought Bucky gave his best performance last night. He still needs to go, though.

And Kevin. I think they (American Idol) are doing this kid a huge disservice by making him feel like he has any amount of talent. Last night he reminded me of a little boy performing at his grandparent's nursing home. I know he can hold a tune, but so can my eleven year old step-son. Just because he can sing in key doesn't mean he needs to be on American Idol!

This season as a whole is pretty boring for me.

[SuzeQuze]

Who was in lust with Ace's falsetto???

oh, that was nice, real, real nice. love him. love him.

That's hot. He did a really good job with that one. There were some sharp notes though, Simon was right. But Paula didn't hear them cuz she was swooning and I don't know why Randy didn't. Damn that smile though, damn it to hell! :lol:

[SuzeQuze]

And Kevin... Last night he reminded me of a little boy performing at his grandparent's nursing home...

:lol: :laugh: :lol: ITA! He's sixteen but he's very immature and the song choices (and lisp) reflect that. He does have a nice sounding voice though and he can sing in tune, maybe he'll be ready in the future but he is not now.

I hate Gedeon's hair, I know, how shallow of me.

I usually don't even watch Taylor because the antics get too weird for me but I love the sound of his voice - I just listen.

Bucky was good last night I thought! The mustache needs to go.

Will, not bad, stupid song, not in the same league with the others.

Chris, boring song, good performance. I'm with you, Sorceress, bust out the Pearl Jam!

Elliot sounds good but I don't get the whole thing with him either. Maybe if he picked songs that really moved me I'd feel differently. Didn't he do Bryan Adams? WTF? Too vanilla.

[cliffdweller]

At any rate, I hope Kevin and Peter Brady go tomorrow night.

Yup, they are dead weight at this point. I can't stand that Will guy, actually, I hope he get the LEAST number of votes because that guy is a little drama kid wannabe. Ugh. He always tries to be "on show" and has anyone else noticed his horribly fake smile that he puts on anytime he senses that the cameras are on him? It's not natural, it's all immature fakery. The boy is grating. Get him out of here.

Taylor was hysterical last night. I laughed so hard tears were running down my face. I'll say this for him, he's having fun and acting like he doesn't give two sh*ts what people think so hats off to him! I like his voice, he sounded better last night than last week that's for sure. That song choice was perfect for him.

Chris let me down a bit, I was hoping for something a bit more engaging. I didn't understand what Simon meant when he said that Chris's performance was too self-indulgent. I didn't think his song choice last night was any different than ithe stuff he normally sings :shrug:.

Gideon was good, he just needs to control his mouthal :laugh: movements.

Elliott wasn't that great last night and Ace is just eye candy with no vocal substance.

Bucky--- meh.

Maybe he just hasn't "come out" yet, plus he love's Michael Jackson, what heterosexual man loves MJ? But he still must stay, strickly for eye candy.

[BTFLCHLD]

Ace :o
***gasp***

[ontheEdgeof17]

They really should take the top 12 people with the most votes, and not split them up 6 and 6. I would much rather have a whole Top 12 of the girls, than have any of the guys. :nod:

[JazmenFlowers]

Taylor - tired of him already. I don't think this is the right competition for him.

Chris - he was disconnected and a touch boring. He needs to break out and do something a little different.

Bucky - needs to go

Gedeon - he seems totally fake...hate the way he talks...his singing is grating on my nerves too.

Kevin - needs to go

Will - I actually like him, but he's not really gonna catch on. he'll be out soon.

Ace - he was ok, vocally. the falsetto was hot, but I wonder how much more he can do...I mean, where else is he capable of going. no doubt he's worth watching.

Elliot - not really into the song and I can't bear to look at him

[DavidMn]

Gedeon - I love him! Yeah, he talks weird, but he's got stage presence and a great ol' soul. I'm actually voting for him and ONLY him.

Taylor - Looked like he was being electrocuted. LOL I like him alright and I'm sure he'll be safe tomorrow night.

Chris - Eh, didn't know the song and he was just okay tonight for me. Still a fave though.

Elliot - I thought it was okay. I love that song. Can't believe he's 90% deaf in one ear.

Ace - PLEASE GOD, let him go home tomorrow!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!! I know he won't though. :mad:

Kevin, Bucky - It's time to go.

Will - Wasn't his best, but his voice is great and he's a cute lil guy. :)

'Zat all of 'em? :laugh:I was perusing your opinons, and I concur. I've decided that I think Elliot is the cutest guy there.:thumbsup:

[JazmenFlowers]

I've decided that I think Elliot is the cutest guy there.:thumbsup:
I know you're kidding?! :confused:

[DavidMn]

I know you're kidding?! :confused:No I really like him. Ace isnt bad either, but he's so Ken doll-ish. Who would you pick? There's jus tsomething about Elliot I like.

[JazmenFlowers]

No I really like him. Ace isnt bad either, but he's so Ken doll-ish. Who would you pick? There's jus tsomething about Elliot I like.
I guess my problem with Elliot, besides his jacked up teeth (a friend told me she hopes he gets a deal to fix his messed up grill), is the fact that he reminds me of that goat character from The Chronicles of Narnia. He's just not attractive to me.

I think David (voted off), Will and Ace are the best looking.

[JazmenFlowers]

oh you flatter. how much do I owe you? :)

I swiped it from those eBay Judy Wong pics and photoshopped it a bit.

[Livia]

I. Love. Ace. I would love to see him do a Bee Gees or Andy Gibb song with that falsetto.

I love Chris too - but I'm tired of the way he stands when he sings- all leaned over and us having to look up his nostrils the entire time...

[ThePenguin]

Exactly-- and he also loves Prince and George Michael! hints, people, all hints. :laugh:

Yeah, he's so gay. My roommate said she thought maybe, then he started the song and I said, "Oh definitely!" :laugh:

[bikerchic]

Yeah, he's so gay. My roommate said she thought maybe, then he started the song and I said, "Oh definitely!" :laugh:
When he started singing about butterflies in his tummy or something, I was like, WTF? I said, he needs to shut his mouth, get up stairs, take off all his clothes and just lay there and look pretty, until I come up. My husband laughed, that's what I always say to him :laugh:

[SuzeQuze]

Even Derek thinks I'm off my rocker!:lol: Jason said he looked like Mr Thomnas in Narnia!! How mean.:lol:

Haven't seen it yet. It's the ears. Actually, if he grew his hair in just a little and put on some real clothes he'd look good! I definitely do see what you are saying, there is some cute there, he just needs quite a bit of polishing!

Yup, "Ace, do not speak unless asked to. You are to be seen and not heard." :lol:

[JazmenFlowers]

yes, starting with his teeth.

Wow! Some surprise eliminations tonight :eek:

[goldie]

Wow! Some surprise eliminations tonight :eek:

No way! I think America totally got it right tonight!:blob1:

[goldie]

So am I nuts for thinking Elliot's cute?

Nooooo!! I think he's a cutie, too!! :xoxo:

[goldie]

That's hot. He did a really good job with that one. There were some sharp notes though, Simon was right. But Paula didn't hear them cuz she was swooning and I don't know why Randy didn't. Damn that smile though, damn it to hell! :lol:

I didn't hear any sharp notes! I've played the song over and over again since last night and I still don't hear any. I could be blinded by love, though. :shocked:

[jannieC]

No way! I think America totally got it right tonight!:blob1:
Including....Kevin? :shocked:

[goldie]

Including....Kevin? :shocked:


yes! Even Kevin. He can go next week. I couldn't stand Will or Gideon one more week. Esp. Gideon with his "god bless you's....."

[gldstwmn]

Kevin gets to stay over Gedeon? :shocked:

[JazmenFlowers]

Kevin gets to stay over Gedeon? :shocked:
this was the only real shocker to me. I wish Kevin and Bucky had gone, then Gedeon, then Will.

oh well...

[goldie]

Kevin gets to stay over Gedeon? :shocked:

yes .... Gedeon's arrogance overruled his talent. (in my book)

[BTFLCHLD]

I didn't hear any sharp notes! I've played the song over and over again since last night and I still don't hear any. I could be blinded by love, though. :shocked: bet you had some rockindreams

[GypsySorcerer]

Ugh. Kevin should have gone instead of Gedeon. Will Kevin be this year's John Stevens?

[JazmenFlowers]

yeah brady...whats kev still doing there?
what did chris and ace sing tonight...recall?
they didn't sing tonight. last night chris sang oh ****...what did he sing? a nickelback song maybe?

ace sang that michael jackson song about "you give me butterflies inside" in a high falsetto - I'm still mopping up the mess I made.

[BTFLCHLD]

I'm still mopping up the mess I made. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: ive hired a butler...goes by the name of ace :thumbsup:

[BTFLCHLD]

you didnt tell me bo sang
omg he washed his hair...kinda

[golden braid]

Which girls got kicked off?

[GypsySorcerer]

Which girls got kicked off?
Kinnick and Ayla

[gldstwmn]

yes .... Gedeon's arrogance overruled his talent. (in my book)

I didn't get an arrogant vibe from Gedeon at all. I thought he was rather humble.

[wondergirl9847]

I missed the show tonight, but my Gedeon got booted?!!?? GOT DANGIT AMERICA!!! I'm moving. :mad:

I hate this show. :laugh:

I agree with Chris, he was NOT arrogant and I'll miss him. :distress: I voted for him quite a bit last night too. :(

[Red]

I've been watching but I haven't been all that enthalled. Now America's Next Top Model - now THERE'S an entertaining show! Love it and all of its vapid pointless glory.:nod:

[jannieC]

you didnt tell me bo sang
omg he washed his hair...kinda
You can tell Bo flat-ironed his hair- that's why it looked all shiny and healthy. I've always loved Bo, but I didn't think he sounded all that great last night. :shrug:

ace sang that michael jackson song about "you give me butterflies inside" in a high falsetto - I'm still mopping up the mess I made.

I didn't watch it last season so I've never heard Bo but I wasn't impressed w/ his singing at all! I was waiting for Simon to tell him it was 'ordinary'... or perhaps 'appalling'.... And to me his hair looked kinda greasy.

I cannot believe Gedeon went before Kevin. that was a surprise.

-Lis

[cliffdweller]

I thought it looked healthy and shiny not greasy. Maybe it looked greasy to you because in the past it always looked dried out and frizzy and now it looks smooth and glossy. I love how we're talking about the finer points of Bo Bice's hair :laugh:

I'm glad Ayla got knocked out, but I can't believe Gedeon was booted! He was one of the best vocalists in this competition. Kevin was saved yet again :rolleyes: I'm sick of that twerp. Please, for the love of all that's holy, quit voting for him people! :mad: :laugh:

I missed him. :mad: Stupid gym.

I didn't care for Gedeon or Will. Those girls aren't even memorable to me, although I have been missing the girls' performances a lot. :shrug:

[Sorceress]

:distress: I voted for him quite a bit last night too. :(

I did too. :( Oh well. He was just too strange. Talented, but strange. It was showing his painting that did him in, I think.

[cliffdweller]

You think so? I kind of liked his strangeness. I like the odd birds I guess.

The vote for the worst people are pushing votes for Kevin. He'll be another John Stevens and Scott Savol, mark my words.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Oh dear Lord.

I heard it's 'Stevie Wonder' week.


Help.us.all if this is true.

[Brwn_eyes0511]

oh great...

american idol + stevie wonder = idiotic

[golden braid]

Oh dear Lord.
I heard it's 'Stevie Wonder' week.
Help.us.all if this is true.
Unfortunately it's true. :( I can't stand Stevie Wonder music and it seems like everyone has already done a Stevie song so I don't understand why they have to have a whole week of it.

[cliffdweller]

Well the thing is, haven't they all been singing Stevie Wonder already :shrug:?

I know I've heard at least 5 people sing his songs so far.

[SuzeQuze]

They sure have. :rolleyes:

[skcin]

I am not excited about Stevie Wonder week either.

The only positive is that perhaps Chris will rock "Higher Ground."

The biggest negative is that some dumbass will no doubt do "I Just Called To Say I Love You."

It is at that moment that I will vomit.

[DavidMn]

I'm going to predict that Taylor will do Superstition.

[goldie]

I wonder what my boy Ace will do?
