Hee-hee. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen 0 voters called Idol watchers. Hey, we can be conservative and have some silly fun too!

[RummyChick]

Let me just remind everyone why not many should do this song...

They have to cover the liberal quota...like that takes alot on this show.

[skateman]

Allison is s great singer, but this song, I just didn’t feel suited her.

[slugbug]

I like her and I didn’t think she did that badly on the song although no one can compare to Steven Tyler. I also love her red hair-if I were a bit younger, I’d dye mine that shade!

[hugorand]

Wow, they’re not putting Adam last this week, that’s a switch

[Fawn]

I missed that...what did he say about her?

[silent_jonny]

Allison Iraheta

Allison is first tonight. Her song is Aerosmith's "Don't Want to Miss A Thing" from the worst movie ever made, Armageddon.

This version is slower than the original. Takes too long to build. Allison's voice doens't seem suited for it either. She seems to run out of breath.

Paula: I've championed Adam since day one. You possess the same talent he does. You're authentic. I don't care if you're 16 or 60. One talented young lady.

Simon: I think Allison you're the girl's only hope. I genuinely do. [Lil's head just exploded backstage] You're getting stronger. You're getting more confident. You sang it so well. We could see you all the way to the end now.

And that's it--only TWO judges' comments per singer.

SO DUMB. You have too many judges! Three was plenty. Get rid of Kara and the show would run smoothly again.

[LA Woman3]

Yes! You and me! We can be Kara and Paula for the day!!

Can I be Paula? Then I can drink like a fish, clap like a seal and tell everyone they look so pretty!

[MagUSNRET]

Well we use the F word alot here too........”What the FREEPIN hell is he FREEPIN doin as a FREEPIN judge!” ;-)
See........Im trying to be a kinder gentler woman on the edge! (as I rush to pour a bit more nectar of the gods into my tumbler LOL)

[Bahbah]

Allison really is amazing, although I didn’t like this particular performance.

[Wolfstar]

Hi, Wolfstar! I’ve missed you around here the last few days.

Hi Jonny. Good to be "see" you, too. :)

[retrokitten]

(Sorry, the only talent I recognize in the man is his ability to use the f-word as every part of speech...)

Don't forget graphic violence!

Here's a shiv in the leg, just so you don't forget again.

I do love Pulp Fiction, but that's about it for his movies.

[MagUSNRET]

I guess even Simon thinks the angry black woman in the White House, is the one too many, so we dont need another in Big Mounds

[big'ol_freeper]

Not Allison’s best performance...but man she has a great voice.

[retrokitten]

Can I be Paula? Then I can drink like a fish, clap like a seal and tell everyone they look so pretty!

Sure! LOLOLOLOLOL

[silent_jonny]

Hiya :)

[Wolfstar]

Idol has foregone the cheesy, unnessecary, time-wasting Judges' Introduction.

Good. :)

I don't know if he's joking or not, but he says that only two judges will be reviewing the singers at a time.

Gotta make room for the O's latest interruption. ;-)

[peggybac]

It’s really sad that I can’t ever remember my cell phone number but know the 866 Idol number by heart.
