She was crying a lot at the time or he may have other daughters & just wondered which one was calling. What I find more odd is her father's reaction to it. It wasn't at all what I had expected from what she said. He sounded fine about it. Hate to say it but I think she may have embellished that story a little bit.

For anyone interested, Chris Daughtry will be performing free in Greensboro NC on March 23.

New York (my hometown) was very disappointing. But then I don't think we got to see the best of the 35 sent on to Hollywood. The only one who impressed me as a star was Jenry, the handsome kid with the short Bolivian mother.

Good thing he's 0nly 16, because he will be accompanied by a parent, and all the raunchy women, like Porkylana, will have to stay away from him.

I know The Donald believes in second chances, but Simon shouldn't. Nick blew it last year--he should not have been given a spot this year, because that's one less spot for a real, new talent.

The Opera Brat was obnoxious--this year's Mikayla?

The Jersey Girls could not sing but are pretty and sexy. They will be sure to cause trouble in Hollywood.

I don't remember any of the others--they were so bland and ungifted.

Hate to say it but I think she may have embellished that story a little bit.

I think so too. I hit the "back" button so many times last night, because I was going to use stronger terms then "embellished".

I agree, rk, that whole story was as phony as a three-dollar bill...the tipoff was when her old man said "Who is this?"


This phony-baloney young lady thought she could pose as this year's Daddy's Girl, another McPhee.

Someone shouild tell the producers that their contrived "stories" are all too apparent as BS this season.

Or are we all getting jaded?

They sure could have used the Soup Nazi as the fourth judge last night, instead of the faux Joan Collins.

What a sweet girl! Could you imagine Spears or any of the other rock bimbos doing that? Thanks for sharing the link. :)

She embellished and she cried because she knew that would work, I can't believe otherwise. I really don't like that and she's already one I will probably not vote for. Unless she does something spectacular to change my mind

It's like he writes 5 lines and just repeats them over and over and over and over....

Just like modern Christian church music...

Can't stand a phony or a manipulator. I'd be surprised if she made it past Hollywood.

2-hour 'Idol' demolishes Wed. competition
The Hollywood Reporter Staff report
Jan 26, 2007

How long can Fox hold that high note? "American Idol" demolished everything in sight again in primetime on Wednesday with a two-hour edition that peaked at 36.9 million viewers in the 9 p.m. hour.

"Idol" opened up the night for Fox at 8 p.m. with 27.7 million viewers and 11.1 rating/30 share in the adults 18-49 demographic. By 9 pm., viewership had climbed to 36.9 million and 15.5/37 in the demo.

"Idol" surpassed the combined ratings of ABC, CBS, NBC and CW Network in both the 8 p.m. and 9 p.m. hours. CBS' "Armed and Famous" (4.7 million, 1.4/4) couldn't get arrested at 8 p.m. NBC's "Fright Night Lights" (6 million, 1.9/5) and ABC's combo of "George Lopez" (6.1 million, 1.9/5) and "According to Jim" (6.2 million, 2.1/5) weren't much better off, though CW's "Beauty and the Geek" (3.1 million, 1.3/3) held up well, relatively speaking by CW standards.

[SNIP]

All told, Fox won the night with an average of 33.6 million viewers and 13.9/34 in adults 18-49, which was not too far from where it was last Wednesday with the two-hour conclusion of "Idol's" blockbuster premiere (36.9 million, 15.5/36).

Just found your thread and had to say how wonderful it is and echo others sentiments on your drawing at the top, wow indeed, and I also enjoyed the updates on the Idol group from last year.

Thanks jonny!
