Ah..we're just picking on you Ken. If I'm being honest with you :) I was tiring of Anwar. The last 3 weeks he has sounded the same, hasn't tried something different. Just like Anthony and Scott have been the same. Constantine has been doing better because he has been willing to mix in something you wouldn't expect from him. Anwar is talented and deserves to be in top 10 but I am wanting something more from him because I know he can do it. I think that is why I like Bo, he's done something different each time, even though I did not prefer his song choice last night. To me season 2 was still the best of AI. I loved the "Hercules" guy and Ruben and clay and Josh and both Kims.

This morning I was listening to Rick and Bubba ( they are talk show hosts in Alabama and in southeast). They were talking about Paula and how glazed her eyes looked. Anyway they played a sound bite of her in the beginning of the season and how she complained with back troubles. They wondered aloud if she was on Oxycontin and that was why she was acting bizarro. One guy called in and said yeah she probably was and she was chasing the pills down with Beer! It was funny.About 6 callers said she was definately drunk. I wondered if that is why Simon keeps his hand on her arm to try to keep her calm.

LOL now that's bad when the MJ trial looks attractive but I know what you mean. I stream Rush through my computer and even had to turn him off yesterday. The Terri Schiavo case is terrible but I cannot bear to listen anymore.

Agreed. By the way Rush finally left the topic and is now talking to a dominatrix about the euphoria spanking causes...that's a weird show topic. :)

The show was very weird tonight. When you see it, keep an eye on Paula.

Good day, jonny. You're right. The show was very strange last night. No question in my mind Paula was three sheets to the wind. Drugs? Alcohol? Who knows. Her upper body movements were stiff. It almost seemed like it hurt her to turn her head naturally. So, to be charitable, maybe she has some pain in her back or neck and took something stronger than asperin or Tylenol for it.

As for the performances, it's probably easier to point out the best than the worst, since only two or three were any good.

Carrie did fine, as usual. The only thing I'd pick on about her is that I wish she'd learn to be less wooden on stage.

Vonzelle is the one performer who continues to improve. I thought she was good last night. A little sharp, here and there, but good overall.

After those two, as much as I don't like admitting it, I think Constantine was the best of the guys last night. Actually got to hear his singing voice last night (vs. his pretend rocker voice), and it wasn't bad at all.

The rest all threw in clunkers last night, in my opinion. However, I don't quite get why Simon keeps ragging on Anthony so harshly. Anthony has a voice, even though it's untrained. He's a cute guy with potential, nowhere near as bad as Simon keeps making him out to be.

In my opinion, I think Nikko is consistently far worse. I just cannot stand that kind of high-pitched, nearly tuneless, nearly falsetto kind of singing. Anwar does it all the time, plus his singing is nasal. Scott tried it last night and sounded bloody awful. I think he was rising in the competition and hurt himself badly with that performance last night.

Who do I want to go tonight? Nikko. Who do I think will go? Anthony, Scott, Jessica or Nadia.

At this point, I think the top two are Carrie and Bo. Because so many of the pre-teen and teenage girls love Constantine, he'll probably make it to the top three. After that, it's anybody's guess what will happen.

Fantasia's CD sales are very low compared to other idols.

Oh boy do I feel like I'm taking my life in my hands by asking this. I'm not USUALLY a Constatine fan, but did like the song he sang last night, and wonder if anyone knows the name of it so I can hear the original.

Thanks, and I promise never to mention his name again--LOL!

Hi, Wolfstar :)

I agree 100%. Nikko is consistently weak. He's been able to skate by so far, I think, because Mikalah was much worse. Now that she's gone, there's nowhere for him to hide.

Scott and Bo were big disappointments last night. But Scott suffered the most because he already has that image problem. He may go home tonight :(

But so many of last night's performances were bad (or at best mediocre) that it's a toss-up. Nobody's safe, except of course Carrie--and Vonzelle, she was surprisingly good and may have saved herself this week.

Tonight's show should be very interesting!

Hi mupcat! I see someone answered your question already about what Constantine sang.

I didn't remember, so I went looking and found out that the American Idol website has that information on all the songs in case you need to find that out again. Specifically in the music section.

I was going to tell you this on the Dose, but I did try the sandwiches!

The only thing I couldn't bring myself to do was put miracle whip on the peanut butter and bacon.

I even used white bread!

The peanut butter one was surprisingly good and I loved the cucumber

Thanks for the "recipes"!

When does Nashville Star come on and on what channel?

I think I'd really like that.
