Oh sweet crap what is going on with this one???? It’s like she got a day pass from the mental institution.

LOL!! And she went wig shopping. "I bought dis!"

[silent_jonny]

Awful....just awful. But, the judges will LOVE her. gag

I was expecting that too. Surprised they didn't.

While FR is so slow, I'll add this: I didn't see or hear anything tonight that was different from her previous "performances". All mindless screeching and jumping around.

Nicki’s voice sounds a bit like a duck call.

It does! Perfect description.

[silent_jonny]

THis gals only talent, is in getting people to believe she is 20!

LOL! And she can't even do that very well.

[silent_jonny]

Good evening, Pat!

Hi, Shelayne :)

Rump-a-roni

ROFLMAO!!

Looked like more hail damage than hit Joplin Missouri during the tornado

There are some times when "LOL" just doesn't cover it. This is one of those times :)

Only two females really impressed me last night, Kree and Angie. Such amazing tone to their voices.

Everyone else feels like also-rans from any random season of Idol.

Miss Alaska kept breathing between words and there was some unintentional squealing too. I watched away from my pc last night. There were 7 decent contestants last night imo. Kookette, Miss Alaska and the girl w/the dark long hair with a wobbly voice were the worst imo.

That leaves seven that were credible. I like Candace and Amber the best. Amber could be the next Whitney Houston without the drug habit. Candace has a voice that's a throwback to the great jazz era and it was great to hear that. The other five I like I can't remember right now. The blonde country singer, the Lousiana girl was okay and the dark haired country girl wasn't all that imo but they seemed to like her.

You might enjoy this commentary on Smash..

and also this one. ( Note: do click through the links in the second piece..lots more good stuff..) I do watch the show...but it continues to implode . Megan Hilty is superb..

BRING BACK THE GUITARS in exchange for the hot pants disasters.

[floriduh voter]

OBAMAPHONE! She can be their spokesperson!

[ken5050]

My top three: Kree, Kree, and Kree

"Twilight Zoanette" doesn't belong in the same area code with the girls, let alone on the same stage.

I'm confused..how many get voted off on Thursday?

[floriduh voter]

Is Angie the singer/pianist? She’s in the top five too but I couldn’t remember her name but she’s on my top 5. The problem is that my list had seven on it. I’ll let America decide. I quit voting for AI after both Obama fraudulent elections.

[goodolemr]

I didn’t vote last night either. I perfer being a paasive viewer instead of someone with a rooting interest. I believe the only season I really voted was way back in season1(of course, the real problem Idol has is they peaked in season1, when they discovered Kelly Clarkson).

Yeah, Angie is the pianist. She sang a Christian song. I believe she has hearing loss.

[CounterCounterCulture]

My five favorites to go through are...

Angela
Candice
Kree
Aubrey
Breanna

I saw the ad for the AI app..where you can vote 50x at once...you know, I just realized that for maybe $25k per show, you can easily fix the AI vote..

Go to China, or India..pay 2,500 people $10@ to vote a certain way..that's like 1,250,000 votes..easily enough to tip the vote..

I know it’s American Idol, it’s not like we’re watching high brow, high value shows or something, but how can they honestly expect people to take them seriously when they have someone like that on the show?

I imagine the producers did a collective facepalm last night--or maybe last week when she went nuts. I'm guessing that's why they made sure to start the show with that train wreck. Put her no where near the pimp spot.
