I once saw Lionel in concert. But even then I didn’t say I was a huge LR fan. Omg that this guy is going to sing Hello. Um. Was he born when David Cook basically won the show with his version? I believe Richie even commented back then.

Here he goes. Aaaand Lionel fu Manchu in 4, 3, 2, there it is

No, no, longhair boy did not master Lionel’s song. Lionel looks absolutely relieved.

“To do this song, it was a kind of blessing and a curse. And I think you landed somewhere in the middle. Maybe around purgatory.” Katy

“Please Gd, just let him own it. And you really didn’t, did you there? you sucked, which made me realize what a talent I am.” Lionel

“I wouldn’t say this was a flawless vocal performance. Kind of crappy, takes courage to destroy and ruin Lionel’s song in front of him.” Luke

Ryan forces Lionel to come up and show this punk how it’s done. You know, Lionel is not bad. Omg, Ryan Seacrest sounds BETTER THAN LIONEL. How bout we let him win Idol??? Would that be a hoot?

Kelsea Ballerini is good. She has some huge hit songs.

And I would see any country star (ok, not the bald guy with the hat) in concert if I could but I can’t. One day.

Gabby is cuter than Kelsea.

Gabby picks a great song. My Church.

They need more female country artists to weed out that phony dummy Miranda Lambert. Me no like. Songs so gimmicky and stupid.

Now he seems to just be a counselor. Man, Idol sure has gone downhill - so touchy feely.


Boneman is like the Joe Biden of Idol.

Oh no. I am so sorry about your neighbors. Ghastly.

I’ve been grieving for the young hockey team in Saskatchewan who lost 15 members in the bus crash. Everyone on the bus was injured. We will never understand why such bd things happen.

Prayers up for all, and strength for the funerals.

They shouldn’t have that Randy commercial on this show. It shows up how bad these judges are. I’d take three Randy’s.

Cade, whoa, has anyone EVER done Jimi Hendrix on this show?? His dove is still being whipped around on his guitar.

Katy rips off her jacket and flirts with Cade, threatens to jump onto him. The other judges stop her, and there it is, “she’s ready to whore!” She pretends to pass out.

Lionel was around when Hendrix came out. He thinks cabe is as good. Um. Maybe he had taken some of the brown acid back in the 60s because Jimi was singing his OWN SONG and blowing people away with his uniqueness.

I thought so too, maybe there was an alcoholism or substance abuse issue. Then Tim Conway Jr questioned aloud on his show, “where was her husband mike fisher that night?” There are sadly a few nhl players who’ve been “penalized” for taking shots at their “marital opponents.”

Hey congrats. I’m not as much of a hockey fan as I was years ago. My team when I was younger was the Hartford Whalers. Once they were stolen it took me years before I became interested again.

This Amish looking guy needs an orange triangle on his back.

LOL!

Not feeling the force?

Not so much. They're making too many Star Wars movies now. Even as hammy as the prequels are, they were still "special" because SW movies were so few and far between. Now there's a new one every 6 months.

And it doesn't help that the new Han Solo looks nothing like Harrison Ford. The kid in "Ready Player One" would have been a better choice.

I'm not eager to see that one either.

Is this guy Amish?

It depends on if he can make a sob story out of it :) "My oppressive Amish family shunned me because I listened to Lionel Richie!"

Are we voting for the best voice or the best sob story?

Good question. I would like for one judge to say "Hey I'm sorry you're ganny's in the hospital, or your goat is suing you for child support, but that song SUCKED!"

The gal reminds me of the contestant with the ratty hair who had a great voice. What was her name?

Crystal Bowersox. Don't hear much about her either, but she's still active according to her website itinerary. And it appears she's now using shampoo.

I had to look, them up to see whom they became! The Carolina Hurricanes. Yikes. That would be sad. The Avs were once the Quebec somethings. I’ve only been a fan of them since my little boy played hockey and his hero was Patrick Roy. He’s 26 now.
