What the heck are they going to do for two hours? Simon and Ryan will quickly run out of witty repartee.

2 words – Song Choice – Song Choice – Song Choice!!! It’s hard to tell sometimes with these song choices if it’s the song or the singer or both.

Kristy Lee Cook - Simon said it. She can sing, but she chose a bad song and it was boring and forgettable.

Joanne Borgella - Once again, Simon is right on. I did NOT like her at all. Her voice was whiny to me and I hated the song choice. On my bottom 2

Alaina Whitaker - Agreed again with Simon. She reminds me of Carrie Underwood…but not nearly as good. That said, she did ok.

Amanda Overmeyer - Agreed with Simon here…and although I totally dig Amanda, and her sexy, smoky voice and rocker style…I HATED her song choice. Hopefully she’ll pick better songs, as this goes along. I hope she stays in til the end, as she’s got the unique quality AI needs.In my top 3

Amy Davis - I agree with Simon. It was a bad song choice. I didn’t like her voice and just didn’t like her. On my bottom 2

Brooke White - I disagree with Simon. Although I like Brooke, I hated her song choice. She can sing and I hope she picks better in the future.

When I see her

I can’t help but conjure up…

Alexandrea Lushington - Agreed with Simon here again…I did not like the song choice and I’m not sure if I like her singing.

Kady Malloy - Disagreed again with Simon, I actually liked her and thought she did pretty good.

Asia’h Epperson - Again, I don't agree with Simon on this one either, it wasn’t all that. It was just ok for me…………dawg.

Ramiele Mulabay - This girl can sing. I totally dig her. In my top 3

Syesha Mercado - The jury is still out on whether I like this girl or not. Although she sings well, I didn’t like the song choice, and she seemed to have an attitude, which is always a turn off to me.

Carly Smithson - I disagreed with Simon and agree with the “buzz” about her. I like her and hope she makes it far in this competition. I wish I could place who she looks like though…. In my top 3

Oh….and Paula’s hairdo made her look like a wet dog.

WTF was she thinking?

I WANT AN 80’S NIGHT DAMMIT!!!! And I say Michael should do Queens – One Vision. Although I’m still waiting for someone to sing Steelheart’s – I’ll Never Let You Go..tee hee

Cute Paula poc!

I agree that Paula needs a makeover—fast!

I'm getting the feeling the JUDGES think she's ordained to win. I hope not. I've had that feeling a couple of times with AI

Like when Simon pimped Fantastic Burrito and Ruben can't sing without passing out Studdard?...no...this show isn't rigged, not at all.../sarc

Did you realize that tonight’s elimination show is 2 hours long?

I guess I'll miss part of it, if it cuts into "LOST"...thank God for DVR. But it's a good thing anyway because of all the filler I can bypass. Ugh. Could they drag it out any more? No...wait...don't answer that... ;O

Paula: Joyful. Made it your own. Big. Shine get!"

ROFL! Then, when Simon would say he didn't understand a word she said, Paula would haul off an belt him. I'm sometimes amazed he takes all that guff from her.

Those are nice pics of Jordin with GWB. Sad that her album flopped badly. I’m not sure where she takes her career from here.

The FOX schedule has it being only an hour tonight. http://www.fox.com/schedule/

Yahoo TV listings also have it at an hour.

Ah, right you are! I hate YAHOO! They don’t update everything on the page, so while the horoscope and may mail and the news was updated, the stupid tv listings were still showing for Tuesday! Why can’t they update everything at once?

Anway, good thing you said something. I’d have missed it, thinking it was on at 8 like usual. Instead it is on at 7.

I couldn't believe Chris Daughtry lost...what a shock!

In spatial-sequence, or number form synesthesia, numbers, months of the year, and/or days of the week elicit precise locations in space (for example, 1980 may be "farther away" than 1990), or may have a (three-dimensional) view of a year as a map (clockwise or counterclockwise).

oh my gosh - I've done that since I was a small child!

I found this picture of her and it looks like she's trying to blow up our heads with her mind.

LOL!

Maybe she could go into Christian music. She seems to be cut out for that more than Pop.
