I wasn't implying them, I said their character seems better than some of the women. And know I don't know the character of them personally, just the impression that they have left. I think Mandisa and Paris were very dignified and darling. I liked both of them. But there were 2 girls who made the top 6 that I felt based on their actions showed not as much class as the men. Probably immaturity. Sorry if my post offended you.
That was a really sweet post. We are truly blessed to be able to share things even though we are all physically far apart.
Good morning! How did you like last night's show?
From the looks of the young women who turned out to meet him when he went home to VA, I think he's got a younger group of fans too.
The kinds of songs Elliot sings well are not going to be playable on top 40 mainstream radio. His genre is too limited in this day and age.
I think you're wrong about that. He's just got a million dollars worth of advertisement from being on American Idol and placing #3. I think he's going to have some hits that make it to the top 40. I do agree with you about him being like Mr. Dreamy, Harry Conick Jr, and that's a good thing. A REAL good thing. LOL
He'll do fabulous in New York city and Vegas.
I never even thought about that, but I think you're right. I really want him to make it big! He's such a sweetheart. Watching him grow from the beginning tryouts to what he has grown into today is amazing. He's really come a long way. The one thing I have always liked about Elliot is that he seems to be a very humble man. People like that in him. I wish him all the success and happiness in the world. It will be fun to follow his career. :o)
Very cool. Thanks for posting that. He's a really great guy.
LMAO!! Best. Nickname. Ever.
We have Cingular and have a package that includes a ridiculous amount of text messages. If we go over that amount it's 10 cents a message.
Also worth noting is that Rod Stewart did the timeless classics thing, and now Christina Alguer...whatever...is about to do one as well.
I have a feeling those old time songs are about to be very popular, and if so, Elliott could be in the right place at the right time.
I had McPhee and Makar.
Paying tribute to the music that inspired her, pop icon Christina Aguilera will release her third studio album, Back To Basics, August 15th on RCA Records. A modern take on vintage jazz, soul and blues from the 1920s, ‘30s and ‘40s, the album is wildly inventive with a throwback style creating a sound that’s gritty and raw. Back To Basics reunites her with producer Linda Perry as well as creating new collaborations with producers such as DJ Premier.
The sexy first single, “Ain’t No Other Man,” produced by DJ Premier and Charles Roane, is set for release on June 12th. It will be world-premiered on the MTV Movie Awards on June 8th.
“This is a concept album that follows a bold, set vision,” stated Aguilera. “The touchstones are Billie Holiday, Otis Redding, Etta James and Ella Fitzgerald.... what I used to call my ‘fun music’ when I was a little girl.”
Real nice. McSkank.
That photo proves that Taylor wanted Kat to be eliminated, thats for sure!
I don't think any of the other AI contestants really liked Katherine's personality.
Thanks for posting that picture. That really says it all as far as who's got class and who doesn't! I will be so ticked if Katharine wins this thing.
I noticed the same thing, but I don't think that is the same as outwardly jumping for joy. Of course he is happy. But he showed humility and acted in an appropriate manner.
I'm sure he had mixed feelings, but at least he had the class not to immediately plaster a big smile on his face as if to say, "Whooo-hooo! It's Elliott who got the boot and not me!"
Today's pop music is awful for the most part. I whole-heartedly agree with your opinion that SOMEONE should bring back the music lost for so long, it might as well be Taylor!
"Long Time 'A Comin'"...genius!
Katherine is one of those conceited pretty girls who thinks her sweat doesn't stink . .
You should have seen me- crying like basketcase for Elliot. At his parade, at his mom choking up, when he got elimiated, at his review. I'm actually sort of glad it's over, so I can be done crying. LOL
I'm going to have to move all heavy and pointy objects away from the TV next week in case Kat wins. ;-)
