That’s an excellent way of putting it.

The others are more likely to make a mistake, get nervous, forget the lyrics or pick the wrong song. For some reason, James is beyond those issues.

JAMES!

” Mindi’s not gettin’ any recognition either but I’m sure she’s making a lot of dough.”

You don’t pay the bills, or buy the things you want with
recognition.

Thanks for the response, and I too thought they were wearing wigs. In any case they sound good.

See you are a James fan. Agree he’s got the presence, and capability to handle many songs. Would have liked to hear him do the whole Carole King song “ a cappella “.

Maybe he will do that song as the show progresses.

WE have POWER!!! :) Have gone 4 and 1/2 days without, and missed your wonderful thread, however we were blessed in that we didn’t lose anything else. We have been several days to different communities to try and help where we could and the devastation is unreal. So heartbreaking to see toys, books and personal belongings just lying in the middle of debris. Some areas have been closed off so that the police dept. and cadaver dogs can go through the rubble. Please keep all of these that have lost so much in your prayers. God bless you all!

Casey deserved to go home. Haley out song him last week. Casey just “growled talked” the whole time. I blame the judges for not being critical of that in previous weeks.

James and Lauren are my favorites but Lauren’s got a little stagefright thing that even the pros have to get over. James is fearless and talented. Next week gosh, the mentor escapes me. JLo is dancing and singing next week. Well, dancing... lol (her songs are usually one or two notes and lyrics). She’s got a new song that Lady Gaga tossed aside.

Hold on to your hat: Pia landed a private party. They were going to pay her $50,000. She demanded $100K. She got it. So, she's pulling in the dough already.

I just started voting 2 wks ago but I wasn't for Pia but now she's starting to defrost which is a good thing.

Agree with your favorites and assessments.

Will be nice , as I understand it ,that we will hear 2 songs from each contestant.

Steven Tyler has made waves on this season of American Idol, and he will continue to do this month. It was announced on Tuesday that the singer has plans to debut his first ever solo single on the Fox reality series later this month. The single will hit the radio on Ryan Seacrest’s radio show on May 9, and then it will premiere on the results show to air May 12. Not only that, but Steven Tyler has managed to talk his band, Aerosmith, to perform on the Idol finale later this month. He hinted at the possibility earlier in the season.

According to TV Guide, the single is titled It Feels So Good, and it will be the music video for the song that will premiere on the episode. Jennifer Lopez did the same earlier this season with one of the music releases off her latest album. However, Steven has not released a solo song before. All his music has been released with Aerosmith. There was some tension between him and the band when he took on the judge role at American Idol, but he didn’t let that tension stop him from taking the job at Fox.

He said the following about the appearance of the band on Idol: “We’re playing the last show of the season. It was always my intention, always, to get Aerosmith on the show. I mean, Joe [Perry]’s done it. I’m ready for it. I would love to play with Aerosmith.” The fact that the rest of the band has set aside their issues and decided to perform on the finale for Idol is interesting to see. Joe Perry had even threatened Tyler with the possibility of the band continuing on without him, but it looks like that hasn’t happened. Aerosmith has been in the business a long time, and once Steven Tyler is done playing judge on Idol, he will more than likely return to the band. Right now, he is trying on the solo act on for size, but he is and will always be a band front man.

If you have not seen the movie, “Catfish”, you must rent it ASAP. There is controversy on if it is real or not, but regardless, it’s entertaining regardless and a message everyone who spends a lot of time on the internet should keep in mind.

We Interrupt Tonight’s Show To
Bring You Yet Another Important Announcement From
President Obama

.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
Tonight I can announce to the world that Casey Abrams has finally been eliminated from American Idol.

.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
Uhhh ... Wasn't Casey eliminated a week ago?

.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
Quiet you!

.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
I saw an opportunity, I formed a plan and I, myself, successfully had him removed from the show.

.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
But weren’t other people involved--

.

.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
Sorry.

.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
Now, I have decided not to release any photos of Casey's elimination.

.

They're just too gruesome and they may incite his many fans to violence.

.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
But the American people deserve to know the truth.
So I have asked our very own Leon Panetta to provide a
visual rendering of the elimination. Take it away, Leon!

.


Okay ...

.

Here we see Casey being dragged away from the stage ...

.

This is followed by a 45 minute ceremony backstage, in which Casey's body is washed ...
Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

.

Then draped in a clean white cloth ...

.

And once that is completed, he is gently eased off the FOX Studio lot.
Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

.


Very good, Leon!

.


Thanks!

.

.


Now I understand that this--like my birth certificate--will not satisfy everyone.

.


#%$@!

.

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us
So I have decided to entrust the real elimination photo,
along with other sensitive matierials,
to one very special person.
One person, say, who has won the 10,000th Post Prize more than anyone else.

.

Congratulations, Lil' Freeper!

10,000th Post Winner!!

.

You've won

.
