I’ll give you a hint who won: a white person with blonde hair :)


No spoilers! Twin was rooting for Ada!

That sounds cool. Is it true that in Mexico City a lot of people look totally European, and not mestizo (Indian blood)? Have a great trip.

Thank you for a fun spring season of Idol. The thread was a riot, even when the show failed us by shoving a transgender.... you know, any orifice I mention will just make this sentence worse.... by forcing it upon us.... no, that doesn’t work either. Let me start over, by the Show failing us with three judges who made Pauler and “Chicken Bob” Keith look like SS Truppe drill sergeants. But you made it funny!

Is there a way to do another thread soon where not too much cataloguing work is required? Honestly I don’t know how you get those summaries up so fast. Not that I don’t love them but we could do a thread where you have less work and more fun, like a cocktail party where we BYOB?

Either way, thanks for the memories, and love to all of you on this thread until we meet again. I’m going to be watching America’s Got Talent, and Simon is a judge. I am currently watching Britain’s Got Talent but that is harder to get here. Simon is a judge there too. Because he actually has some standards, he does raise the standards of the sweetie pies he has in the “Pauler” role. On BGT the gay-but-married-to a woman guy finally divorced and now is totally out of the closet so he loves every act Simon hates. He is very over the top gay (he is a comedian) and he is very funny actually. David Walliam.

Lots of love to Jonny, the funniest guy on FR. And the best artist. <3 <3

I’m still up Yaelle. :)

If we have an AGT thread, can I be added to the ping list?

We don’t really need to have a host like with AI, but we can get a thread started and just go from there.

I have been watching BGT on youtube. What did you think of that magician’s act? I think that was incredibly good.

I enjoyed this season. It was nice not being a forum for adulation to J-Lo finally. It was also nice having my early favorite win. I cringed when it kept being an all white vote going forward just because I knew the PC crowd would make it in to something even though the voting basically got it right all along. Wished Katie would’ve stuck to her strength because what a voice! I think Ada Vox had great pipes and should have a career in his field.
Gabby reminded me a little of good old Hillary, tireless self promotion even going as far as to have a logo designed and selling GB paraphernalia. She looked a little like Hillary, thinking she was a lock for coronation and being bested by someone with humility and grace. I found her a the end to be offensive and lost all credibility when I heard she was girlfriend of open shirt screaming Cade.( Does he ever button up?)
If you take this show as a true contest of vocal ability and not showmanship, the final two were the right choice. Caleb really stepped it up at the end but Maddie was endearing and solid in her message. Gabby jumped the gun, probably listened to open shirt about having to have big performances. My new nick name for her is crouching tiger.

I finally figured out (googled) who Harper Grace is.

She was the one that butchered the National Anthem when she was younger, but redeemed herself in Idol audition.

She was eliminated during the Hollywood round, that's why I have no memory of ever typing her name. That's reassuring :)

Ferlie looked almost the same. Maybe her experience with Idol stunted her growth.

I think that was the Candace Glover season. They got their female winner, but I believe she was the least successful winner ever.

Yeah, she's the one. I felt sorry for her because she got off to a bad start with that crappy Minaj/Mariah season. But according to google, she's still worth 1 million dollars.
