The Top 13

.

Idol has dispensed with the usual biography/questionnaire that the finalists fill out (which is just as well—there’s only so many answers to questions like “When did you want to be a singer?” “What’s your favorite color?” “What kind of tree would you be?” etc.)

Now each singer has their own official fan page on Facebook where they’re free (more or less) to express themselves. And the comments they post there are more revealing about who they are than anything written in a fill-in-the-blank survey.

So I’ve included a recent Facebook comment from each singer under their photos, along with a link to their fan page. Just click the accompanying Facebook icon.

It's really too bad that there are so many people in this world with such tainted views of reality. I have nothing but positive light in my universe right now. I'm trying to make a better life for me, and for my family. I'm living my dream. I pity you for having nothing better to do with your lives than to tear people down. Dear haters: I love you. You are fuel for my fire.

As he said my name I said to myself that I would praise Him if I won, and Id praise Him if I lost. So thankful for you guys. Thanks for voting! New goal is top 10 so I can see all your beautiful faces on tour! Side note, I will truly miss every single one of those who got sent home. I love you all and you will have a special place in my heart. good night guys=)

It's interesting to see how many "likes" each page has received so far (I think the pages have only been available since Thursday night or Friday morning). Most of the singers have between 6000 and 9000 likes. But Colton Dixon is way ahead with over 20,000 likes. The Gentle Giant has the least with less than 2700.

Jonny, thanks for the ping! I’ve watched Idol very little this year, but it’s interesting to see the top 13. (My Wed. night screenwriting class is still getting in the way!) I’m glad that Jeremy (Jeremiah? whatever — the black guy with the operatic voice) is in! But I predict his attitude will get him voted off the island sooner rather than later. Too bad; he does have quite a voice!
