Question: If Taylor wins, as predicted, and then AI releases the vote totals, and DialIdol has it correct, this will cause a huge problem for AI next season...if the mystery is gone..it will affect the ratings..So look for AI to buy DI for a few million $$...

When does the other poll....Zaba something..come out?

Good morning!

Question: If Taylor wins, as predicted, and then AI releases the vote totals, and DialIdol has it correct, this will cause a huge problem for AI next season...if the mystery is gone..it will affect the ratings..So look for AI to buy DI for a few million $$...

I think that is why they tried to shut down Dial Idol earlier in the season. There were two weeks real recent where Dial Idol and Zabasearch had the same results. Last week they were very close in their results and yet AI came up with different stats. I think they either choked the phone lines or just plain made up their figures to make it seem closer than it really was. So, they don't really need to buy Dial Idol, they can just fudge the numbers. But, its nice to compare Dial Idol with AI because it just confirms the suspicions of many when AI has different results from the other two.

When does the other poll....Zaba something..come out?

Usually its out already, but nothing there except TAYLOR HICKS in big red letters at the top of their results page. No bar graph, no pie charts. (not with last nights results anyway) zabasearch

Those boots are hot. They must have upped the clothing budget for the finale, because there is some money in those things.

I love the boots too, very hot! However, they are the same ones he wore during "Funky Music White Boy". The stylists pointed them out on the AI fashion page on their web site.

I thought he wore those blue shoes for that song.

Oh gag! He is purely sickening.

Probably... :) It is a NEWS organization after all. LOL. Can we ever really trust the news?

I was reading that about Paula's ahem, breasts, last nite on this thread and didn't know what the heck everybody was talking about. But now that I see the pic, I agree, there is something strangely a bit off. It may be that she forgot to adjust the, well what are they called? You know, the lift system in her bra. Maybe one of her pads fell out :)

FYI..BIG article on AI in today's Washington Times....includes results of a survey..74% of AI voters are female..DOH!@!

"There was nothing lousy about Kat's performances. She was BRILLIANT and as always was far better then the schmuckey, hokey Taylor. What a beautiful voice she has been given! : )She sang better, she moved better and she looked better. She is going to be a BIG star."

"The above wasn 't praising my choice? WOW, You appear to have a comprehension problem!!!!

[OldFriend]

I missed the boots, won't someone make my day and post a picture. Please please please.

[Netizen]

Whtever it is, it looks odd. Can't believe someone didn't notice before she went on camera. Kat should have said: Speaking of flat....

[OldFriend]

And you seem to have taken nasty pills.

[Netizen]

It's ok OF. Taylor is on 99.9% of the time and Kat is off 99.9% of the time. It evens out in the end!

[TAdams8591]

"And you seem to have taken nasty pills."

Actually, that seems to be your problem, along with mischaracterizing someone's post.

[Netizen]

Actually OF didn't mischaracterize your post. I think they were commenting on this part of your post

and as always was far better then the schmuckey, hokey Taylor.

But, like everyone else you are entitled to your opinion. But OF did not mischaracterize your post. :)

"I htink Taylor and 9/11 are about the only things that bring Auburn and alabama fans together. War Eagle!"

I agree! There are some things that bring auburn and Alabama folks together! :)

There's a part of me ready to celebrate for Taylor...he certainly was the best performer last night!

Yes he was. I will be shocked if he does not win. I wanted Bo to win last year but was fearful after the final performances. I do not feel that way now.

[TAdams8591]

I don't want what your drinking. It's a shame. Too many people choose no or litle talent over REAL Talent.

Taylor is nothing but a showy buffoon. I predict before long he will fizzle. Katherine will be a BIG STAR and has a brilliant carreer ahead of her.

[sweet_diane]

"Would you like to be added to the ping list?"

Yes I would :) I know it's a little late in the game, but sure!

[Wyatt's Torch]

litle talent over REAL Talent

Two more subjective words you could not have chosen. Many here feel the same way but drew the exact opposite conclusion. Kind of like arguing about who was really talented: Picasso or Monet.........
