ROFL, as Thomas Aquinas would say!
I love Jordin, too. She was my second favorite to win.
Blake is so....ORDINARY.
From one of my favorite musicals, “Gypsy”:
You Gotta Have A Gimmick Lyrics
Mazeppa:
You can pull all the stops out
Till they call the cops out
Grind your behind till you’re banned,
But you gotta get a gimmick
If you wanna get a hand.
You can sacrifice your sacro
Working in the back row.
Bump in a dump till you’re dead.
Kid you gotta have a gimmick,
If you wanna get ahead.
You can uh...You can uh...
You can uh...uh...uh...
That’s how Burlesque was born.
So I uh...and I uh...
And I uh...uh...uh...
But I do it with a horn...
Once I was a Schleppa,
Now I’m Miss Mazzeppa,
With my revolution in dance.
You gotta have a gimmick
If you wanna have a chance!
you know, you didn’t like tay tay from day one so i’m not surprised by your comment....some folks are entertainers and some aren’t...taylor is....melinda is not....
yes - Ian....i’ve been spending the past two nights at my mother’s ... we had a garage sale and she drug my happy ass out of bed at 530 the past two mornings...can’t believe folks show up that early!!!! but hey, I made almost $500 getting rid of junk!
As an American Idol he will likely go down as the least successful of all of the contestants as years past. That makes him a bust. He won because a small segment of the population voted several hundred times a night for him. I point to his poor performance to date as proof. Daughtry’s fans, meanwhile, chose to vote for their guy in the way that matters in the music business by sending him to double platinum status and 2 hit singles.
In the end the wrong person won last year. Daughtry will perform in major arenas and 10,000 seat open venues and “Tay Tay” will be spazzing out in front of audiences 15-20% of that size.
I don’t care for Daughtry’s music since I have heard several bands master that sound but as a recording artist he’s outselling Taylor 3-1.
I have to say I agree with you. She had a great voice, and will be an outstanding studio singer/recording artist, but her odd appearance isn’t “idol” material. I prefer Jordin.
i was in a store yesterday here in Mobile and I swear the little girl that waited on me could have (almost) been her twin - same build, same neck....however, I didn’t dare asked if she was Doolittle....too funny!
I heard in some interview that Ryan knows who's going the morning of the Results Show, so I assume that the judges know too.
IMHO, it made him sound loads better. He was awesome last week.
Sorry, but I had to post it. ;)(Real screencap)
I read on IDF that he was close friends with their drummer a few years ago, so that's probably why calling them himself worked.
Blake does a duet with McPhee at the Finale
Britney to perform on Idol?Oh GOD NOOOOOO!!!!!
Taped Sanjaya Production for the FinaleWorse than Britney performing.
Kelly, Carrie, Daughtry and Taylor are also supposed to be performing. Kelly is also rumored to have a duet with someone(possibly Jordin?)
Thanks for the spoilers. I’ll have my remote handy to mute Brittney and any other undesirables.
OMG! Paula Broke Her Nose:
Paula Abdul Falls Straight Down
6 hours ago
Paula Abdul has always had a soft spot for the underdog.
The American Idol judge took a fall over the weekend while trying to avoid trampling one of her pooches and wound up with a broken nose, her rep told E! News.
“She tripped to avoid stepping on Tulip, one of her Chihuahuas,” the rep said. “She is fine. This will have no effect whatsoever on her appearance on American Idol tomorrow and Wednesday for the finale.”
The rep added that Abdul was not hospitalized for her injury.
• Last April, she filed a police report claiming that she suffered back injuries and a concussion when she was thrown into a wall at a club by a fellow partygoer. • In January 2006, she skipped out on a press conference with her fellow judges that took place just hours before the fifth season of Idol debuted, complaining of an eye infection. • In April 2005, she revealed that she suffers from a rare neurological disorder called complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) that causes chronic pain. • In April 2004, she contracted a fungal infection while getting a manicure at a salon and had to have her right thumbnail removed.
Of course, that’s not even counting the numerous injuries inflicted upon her dignity by Simon Cowell over the years…and we’re sure he’ll get plenty of mileage out of this latest incident.
LOL!
Wow...thanks for the spoiler.
No Taylor Hicks? That’s interesting.
Oh...never mind last comment. I missed the “Taylor” at the bottom.
