A bald head, or the alimony to his ex playboy model writer wife?
Happy Mutterer’s Day!
Did you hear Paula is going to be a judge on The X Factor? : )
Here is the link, if anyone is interested: X Factor Audience Tickets
Wow I would have thought that they would have done most of the auditions by now.
Oh, that would be fun! Are you going to go??
This week on American Idol, the top four contestants will be singing songs from the Leiber and Stoller songbook.
Leiber and Stoller were prolific songwriters from the mid 50s to the early 60s, writing songs for many early rock n roll, R&B/soul, and late jazz/blues groups.

No, I’m not going to go. I’m afraid no one would go with me. LOL
The X Factor auditions are a little different then AI. They go to the big stage right away. It’s more like America’s Got Talent, from what I understand.
It'll be very easy to make poor song choices with their material.
Most of their biggest hits were borderline novelty records.
Hey y’all. Still following your posts every week...and LOLing! I’ll never figure out how you watch, listen and post at the same time.
Anyway, is there a DWTS thread? I can’t find anything.
Did you hear? PAULER is joining Simon on X-Factor....you KNOW what this means don’t you? (A thread, Jonny!! ;-) PLEASE???????
Old Man River is the latest disaster. “Here we all are on the Mississippi...”
She won 5 grammys and that time flew by.
It's great that singing is something one can usually stop and start over. I am on a long break right now. I haven't sung or looked at music in a month. I can enjoy singing or not singing.
That’s a pretty long time...what kind of music do you sing?
Thanks. That’s what I was trying to say. Jacob comes from a Christian family and seems to be religious himself. He is effeminate but he isn’t out there pushing the gay agenda like lambert. Your post was very nice.
Seriously, you have to do a thread for X Factor! Went to the show yesterday and it was fantastic! Pauler back with Simon, who was in fine form — happy and funny! Adele was in the audience and two people did her songs, and Simon called on her to comment.
The bad auditions were hilarious, and there was a good one that will rival Susan Boyle. Seriously. The entire audience had goosebumps and shot to their feet.
I think this is going to be a great show. We will be needing that thread!
I just did a post about it. It was a really fun show. Enjoyed every minute.
That article had interesting picks for the 4.
Someone will sing “Stand by Me” for sure. But which one should?
Oh my gosh, Lady Gaga will be their mentor this week!?! I think the Gaga mentoring Scotty will be as good a match as that country singer who had to mentor Adam Lambert, and just shook his head at the black nail polish and makeup.
I keep reading about how “house of the rising sun” was Haley’s greatest performance to date, and I feel weird because I hated it. Last night I came home from x factor and wanted to hear Haley do “Rolling in the Deep” again, and watched it on YouTube, and she rocked it properly. She was angry and hurt and never smiled. But she was singing the New Orleans ruination song as a Man (she is clearly not one!) and she was smiling while telling us how the House has ruined her life. And she didn’t sing most of it; she yelled. The contest is not “the Loudest American”. I’m hoping for her to be the weakest this week, but she is more confident than Lauren so we will have to see...
