I have a lot of respect for your opinion, and for silent_jonny's opinion, and for many other opinions on here. But I will never have a problem insulting anyone who uses race as a criteria for enjoying talent. And a few of the racial attitudes on here are reprehensible...yet the folks displaying them like a badge of honor are cheered on and gladhanded.
Forgive me if I take the opposite tack.
Notice that I haven't named names. If the shoe fits, I hope those folks are insulted to a high degree.
For me, Amber or Kree should be the next American Idol. I could live with Candice or Janelle. If Lazaro wins the show is dead.
I would choose Amber over Kree, just because her voice has a pure sound and a timbre (is that the right word?) that conveys emotion. Plus she’s a knock out beauty! (But you could tell she was uncomfortable in those short, shorts—which tells me she is also a modest young lady.)
