I like that red-headed girl too...and only 16! Great voice! What a career she’s gonna have.

Adam is a little too purty for me. Like a more feminine Elvis.

IMO, Clarkson isn’t awesome any more. The last several times I’ve seen/heard her, she’s been downright awful.

Adam would have to fall off the stage to lose. It’s really a battle for 2nd. They should all get a record deal IMO.

Don’t know about live...but I love her latest release. Life would suck without you.

Hard-hitting, investigative journalism at its finest.

She did that on AI this season. I hated it and I thought she sucked singing it. Or rather, screaming it.

Just my opinion.

I didn’t see that. Only the video version. It’s great.

But that’s just my opinion.

Clay Aikin was as least a class act as he didn't flaunt his homosexuality as a badge of "honor" as most activists now-adays do. He "won" on the merits of his (debatable) talent and good-naturedness, his strong family/community ties, and a good makeover. Of course, it was rather obvious that he was homosexual, but that didn't come out until LONG after the contest.

Most homosexuals used to behave like this in society; keeping their personal proclivities to themselves and succeeding in society on the merits of their own abilities and hard work. I honestly didn't know Van Cliburne was a homosexual until a very few years ago.

"StarSearch" wasn't fixed either, but I'm convinced they worked secret subliminals on the judges.

What's the deal with Bob Banner?
