Present grandmas excluded of course ;)
The whole "Surprise! You're safe, but you have to sing now" thing can't be helping.
Sideshow Bob. LOL! The, Clint, The!
Hello, Sir. Fun thread tonight as usual. I enjoy the Empire-bashing as much as Idol. It would have been useful if someone did a study as to whether inner city crime dropped during Empire, but I’m sure the brothers have figured out the DVR.
Rofl!! Great open. Yeah, something to sing in the cab to the airport.
Hey, youre here :)
You’d think! No, I wasnt. But getting the place cleaned up post dinner and my older sons babysitting (who tend not to clean up the 101 messes the 3 year old makes) to get ready to watch.
I am very relieved it sounds like Harrison Ford is OK.
Not liking this version of Help myself.
A lot of these have me wondering “ what was the original like “
Buckwheat is good, singing Rockin Robin. JLo has matched her eyeshadow to Buckwheat’s hair. For those of you watching on your old black and white TV “sets,” that would be a teal blue.
Ryan since he lost his girlfriend seems to be much scruffier and casual than I recall him being. What did he used to wear on prior seasons? Why does he seem so much more casual? Poor guy, as rich as he is, he just doesn’t give off a hetero vibe but he still seems to want girls.
LL is dialed up. I’ll have what she’s having. Keith wants some too.
Did you guys notice she was a bookish little girl in glasses before she growed up and got gorgeous? Wow.
She seems to be vibrating.
Oh, I love this song. “I’ll Be There.”
Maddie sure is cute. I didn’t know you could get lash extensions on the bottom lashes too.
Liked her version but my favorite part of the song is the end where Michael is talking directly to his ex, “... He better be good to you.... Cause if he isn’t... I’ll be there.” Chills.
YES. ARETHA IS AMAZING.
And at this point she does not need to put on any foundation garments. The woman deserves to be comfortable!!! She’s something else. These contestants are lucky.
Yellow teeth singing through her nose. Look away from her and listen. Ugh. Or look, and see the rainbow. Blue hair and bright rodent sunshine teeth. Her eyelashes are hideous. Her “quirk” has worn off its appeal to me.
I’m shopping (around) elsewhere.
Harry: Love the artistry too. I wonder if people will start to tire of that hyper stylization.
Wow, exactly what I felt. Harry is reading my mind!! How many fingers am I holding up, Harry??
Your photo of Peggy: Uh, she’s a guy, so...
:)
Sarina is warming up. I really must say I love the original motowny versions of these songs. I actually do not want them grooved up or slowed down. She wasn’t bad. She’s sweet looking and feminine too.
Cray cray eyes was looking at her own boobs when the camera caught her as we were going to break.
And you as well, jonny!
Looks like an interesting season shaping up :)
Cray cray eyes sang that really strongly. Whoops, Harry said she was out of tune. But she nailed feeling the song.
Holy Swear Word, she IS wearing THAT dress! Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
She is oozing with confidence. She seems to have drawn her airplane and her eyebrows with the same pencil.
Yeah I agree with the judges, she changed the song too much.
The whole Motown Week seems to be Improved Upon Motown, which doesn’t work.
Yeah, Ryan did notice she was wearing that dress! Lol.
