LMAO "Entertain thou! Don't look in mine eyes!!!!"
I think you are right. At least the burning-through-my-fingertips sensation has stopped.
I see Pauler got herself another “star” ring out of her collection.
Hi!
Hi, EG! :)
You can add Whitney to the “fail” list.
A bunching bag, what a great idea. Why am I paying for a therapist twice a month?
Thanks! LOL!
I’ll look into that!
:)
2. I still think Paula is hot...
I’d prefer to punch a therapist
Kara, especially. It's like she's trying to be louder and more enthusiastic than the other judges.
This was $186 (bag and stand), set up in an hour and I can punch it for a full hour if I want to (not their wussy 50 minutes). Best money I’ve ever spent.
Joe Biden at Home Depot—LOLOL!
If I could get one to stand still long enough (yes, I'm thinking of Myrna, the marriage counselor from Hell) I'd do that, too.
I’ve never liked Kara as a judge coice for all the reasons You mention & more.
I don't mind them making it co-ed, I just wish they hadn't fiddled with the results--kicking NINE out and keeping three. And then we don't hear those three again until the Top 12?? That's messed up.
A very up and down night tonight. One very dissappointing crash and burn from one of my Favs, and a couple really surprising performances. For a few contestants it once again came down to that old canard - SONG CHOICE, SONG CHOICE, SONG CHOICE.
One thing was clear tonight, the perception that the guys were miles ahead of the girls was reinforced in spades tonight.
1. Danny Gokey - Hero - All last year we waited for a signature WOW performance and never got one. This will be a performance that will go down in AI lore as the performance that made a contestant. Just utterly absolutely totally fantastic. I will predict it right now - Danny Gokey will be the 2009 American Idol.
2. Brent Keith - Hick Town - Absolutely blew it out of the house. Simon can go suck an egg, this was a great performance, and firmly stamped Brent as a future country star.
3. Ricky Braddy - A Song For You - no stage presense, but a fantastic vocal performance. Not as good as Elloit Yamin’s version, but a very solid performance, possibly good enough to get him into the finals over brent. If not, he will definately be on the Wildcard show.
4. Alexis Grace - Never Loved a Man - Such a huge voice from such a tiny package. Had a huge Martina McBride vibe going on. Best female by a mile, and a definate dark horse in the finals.
5. Michael Sarver - I Don’t Wanna Be - Another great male performance, but one that will unfortunately get lost in the shuffle as the first three were much much better. Still a very strong vocal and worthy of consideration as a wildcard.
6. Tatiana Del Toro - Saving All My love For You - It almost pains me to put tatiana this high, but the truth is the girl can flat out sing. She has a strong memorable voice, that unfortunately is in a package that is nuttier than grannies fruitcake. Obviously had a huge dose of lithium or valium or Xanex though. LOL
7. Stephen Fowler - Rock With You - I was flabbergasted at the judges comments. I thought Stephen was fantastic. Not as good as the top 4 males, but still and all a solid performance. I really liked it.
8. Jackie Tohn - A little Less Conversation - A good solid performance that got overshadowed by the great ones. Not a show-stopper, but she had total command of the stage, and has a very distinctive voice.
9. Anoop Desai - Angel of Mine - Now we get into the song choice song choice song choice nightmares. Anoop was a collosal dissappointment for me. I loved his audition and thought he was fantastic during Hollywood week, but tonight was a total disaster. Hopefully they will give him a second chance during the wildcard night.
10. Anne Marie Boskovich - Natural Woman - I liked the performance, but it was way too Karaoke, and just a little off.
11. Stevie Wright - You Belong With Me - SONG CHOICE!!!! Also the nerves were very apparent in her voice. Not terrible, but was amatuer hour compared to the others.
12. Casey Carlson - Every Little The She Does - All I can say here is WHAT THE HELL WAS SHE THINKING. Total trainwreck. Adorably cute girl, good voice, terrible song choice.
Yes,indeed, that is messed up! I hadn’t realized that change...if You mentioned it sorry I didn’t catch it.Thanks for letting me know.
Stupid change!
