Just catching up..Listent, I have a serious idea I wanted to run past you...what I think is a sure fire money maker..a way to capitalize on the AI popularity and hype...I mean, if "vote for the Worst" can get all those hits...
Remember during the primary and election season..the Iowa political futures website..where you wagered on the odds that any one candidate would win..It wasn't illegal gambling..because no cut was taken by the website..you could do the same with AI..put sell advertising on the site..it'd be a huge hit...
Think about it.there must be plenty of talent here on FR to help with the development...we'd have to get a few folks together..but it's doable..and I'd bet we could pre-sell the ad space..one or two bigsponsors..
I got through again...
That makes twice tonight.
2 better than last week.
Bo Bice, 29, of Helena, Alabama, has opened for Warrant and Blackfoot and performed and recorded with Jonny Neal of the Allman Brothers.
Sela Ward as "Ex-spouse of House."
LOL! I'm sure THOUSANDS of really talented actors & muscians wonder why there career hasn't taken off. It's really hard to make it.
That's why it really bugs me when some past Idols seem ungrateful for the tremendous opportunity Idol has given them.
I don't think V deserves it more but I think the voters might. She is black, from the south and is a mail carrier.
Wow. I had no idea it was that extensive. And he still bores me.
How do the judges have the nerve to criticize the kids? Telling Anthony he has no soul, and Carrie she looks like a Stepford wife.
They haven't said a word about Vonzelle or Bo's looks.
Maybe Carrie and Anthony should use a prop next time, like sunglasses or a mike.
Is that false indigo?
I noticed that too. Without AI we would never have heard of them.
Having a hard time getting through for Carrie and Anthony. :(
The judges definitely aren't very objective. They really should work on that. It isn't right.
I wonder why Simon is always so negative about Anthony?
He's the only one who has really shown improvement in my opinion.
I think Simon has been totally unfair to Anthony, and just down right mean. I like Anthony and think as he matures he will be really great.
I've only gotten through 1 time so far and that was for Carrie. Hope that is a good thing. Makes you wonder just how close the votes must be.
They have been cruel to Anthony, and he's just a kid.
He's held up very well for being so young.
You'd think that they would reserve some of the cruelty (if they must dole it out) for the older contestants.
They did the same to John Stevens. Both nice, unassuming kids. Pisses me off.
Just hit 80 votes for Carrie. That's a personal best.:)
WOW! I have gotten through to Carrie twice.
80 votes is your personal best??
I hope that's because you're trying harder this time.
Now I'm getting worried.
Ohhhh, I gotcha. Thanks.
I see it is a bluebonnet now...
It looks like blue indigo
