Lil Rounds
Don't worry--Michael Jackson isn't a mentor this week. So far we've only seen him through some old video footage, when he was at his peak. No mention, of course, of the pedophilia charges or his weird personal life.
Lil sings "The Way You Make Me Feel". It sounds hollow to me, like her voice doesn't fit the song.
Randy: What's up, baby! This is the way we kick off season 8. You just put a whole new spin on this song. Bluesy.
Kara: What Lil just did, everybody just went uh-oh. I hope we get to hear you on the radio. Good job.
Paula: Compliment you on the softeness of what you're wearing, the palette. You are a force to be reckoned with. Like angels singing.
Simon: Thought it was a good. Disappointed because it was a bit of a lazy song choice. I hate what you're wearing. Creampuff.
Seacrest: Don't take fashion advice from a 55 year old man.
