I knew that Anthony would go tonight, I don't think he should have, I'm not a regular viewer, but I do know that winning Idol isn't necessarily the best predictor of future success. Anthony is very young, definitely has his audience, will be a huge success. We haven't heard the last of him. He'll be much bigger than Bo, who's on the downhill slope to put it charitably.
Whatever happened to Fantasia? Besides showing up on Idol, is she working and selling CDs? I liked her during the contest but haven't seen anything I liked from her since..they've wrecked her by developing her in the wrong direction. I'm not sure what the right direction is for her but this shouting stomping booted Fantasia isn't it. She'd be better as a Billie Holiday.

I sure like your post about Anthony. I'm not young, (In fact I'll be 46 on the 18th of this month), but I was just crazy about Anthony.
He has more to learn of course, but I heard and saw lots of potential in Anthony. He has a nice strong, clear voice that really appealed to me.
My opinion of Bo is the same as yours as well.
Fantasia has put out an album recently, but it's not doing all that well from what I understand. I agree, she's getting very bad advice.
I was never a Fantasia fan. That voice of hers was just like nails on a chalkboard to me.
I posted the lyrics to her latest song, Baby Mama last night. She's a very bad example to young ladies I think.
