She's just teenage cute, which is what WE all thought this show was about in the beginning........LOL.
I went to see a couple of the shows live last year, but wasn't a big fan. There were 6 contestants left when I went. I got to go back stage after the show and met Clay and Reuben and the rest.
Believe it or not, the real talent on the show is the host, Ryan Seacrest. A lot of his script is ad libed which is pretty amazing. His years in radio have served him well.
I really liked Clay and glad he's doing so well- a very kind, humble, and genuine individual.
Go Diana!
I also adore Simon. I've always been drawn to bluntly honest people.......lol
What's with Rueben?
Hey, thanks for the sing ping.
Didn't know you were an American Idol-izer, too!
Fantasia's only 19... amazing voice, and so fun to watch, but I'm big on being there for your baby. I tend to agree with your aunt.
So my bet's on Diana. She's my kind of inspiration. Unselfish to the max. Dedicated one of her songs to the Troops and I picture her in concert after concert over there. I'm sure if Bob Hope were still around, he'd be rooting for Diana.
I don't care who wins...they both have already.
Simn tells it like it is....and he's cute!
LOL !!! As you know, Howlin, I have a lot of kid TV going on here. I saw Rueben on Sesame Street yesterday.
make that Simon
I watched a couple of A&E shows on him this weekend; he really doesn't CARE what people think about him.......it's quite refreshing!
are the doing the horizontal mambo?..
He's a big guy and very friendly- posed for pictures with my girlfriend, signed autographs, chatted, etc. He didn't seem to have a huge posse at the time and was pretty genuine as well. The night I went his performance was off, but on subsequent shows his voice was brilliant.
Yes, I got hooked last year; swore I wasn't going to watch this year, but found this MUCH more interesting than some of the news shows on lately, if you get my drift.
Is she having an off night ?
No, but she just sang "Summertime."
That's good. He always seemed like he'd be a great guy to have for a friend.
Diana is going for broke. EEEKKK......a sour note!
My girl LaToya got axed (no, not "asked", but axed), so I'm rooting for.......Fantasia, which means Diana will win. Ever notice how #1 ends up being the dud while #2 and/or #3 go on to fantastic careers? Diana #1, Fantasia #2.
Yikes....heard it..
