I'm telling ya - she's high. She's hooked on pain pills and she's high. She'll end up at Promises before the next American Idol is chosen.

I also think Simon's going to snap at some point and just walk out when they're booing him while he's trying to speak.

I wonder how they're going to fill a whole hour tonight? I sure hope there's no more Fantasia.

 

[Freedhem]

It's usually only a 30 minute show on Wed.

An hour last night...I really wish Scott had gone, he can't carry a tune in a paper sack. Paula is a stoned idiot lately what with the waving arms and the fake tan going on, she looks orange. People need to stop booing Simon and LISTEN! Oh lordie, give me a caffeine I.V.

An hour last night...I really wish Scott had gone, he can't carry a tune in a paper sack.

Amen to that. I haven't liked him since the beginning.

As a matter of fact, I can pinpoint the moment I started to not like him. After the auditions, they had some preliminary competitions, notably, harmonizing. And he didn't show up to practice with his teammates. He totally screwed them, and somehow managed to stay in the competition.

What a jerk.

I will give this to him, he's talented. But he's talented within a very narrow range of song-styles... and now that the contestants are having to sing differnet genres and styles, he's beginning to flounder and I guarantee he's done this week.



In my opinion this is also Bo's weakness. Bo sounds awesome - when he's in his element. The past two weeks he's been out of his element, and look where he landed.

I think this is Constantine's (and Nadia's) greatest strengths.

And no way... NO WAY.. Nadia should have gone home last night.

Paula is a stoned idiot lately what with the waving arms and the fake tan going on, she looks orange.

I have a feeling that Ms. Abdul has gone and gotten herself hooked on painkillers after smashing her thumb last year (or whatever happened to her hand).

People need to stop booing Simon and LISTEN!

Well it's like Simon said last night... he's been doing this for thirty years. He probably knows a little bit about what he's doing and talking about. I always liked Simon. He really knows how to deflate the people's highly exaggerated sense of overdeveloped self-worth.

Usually with a word or two.



"Dreadful. Simply dreadful".


On the other hand, it makes it FAR more significant when he actually compliments someone. For instance, I think that Constantine got a MUCH bigger boost from Simon's simple "Astonishing" comment, than he did from Paula's overdramatic over-the-top praise.




Yesterday was a travesty of justice.

I agree, And I think Nadia sang flawless and effortlessly. Scott does not have the star quality and he needs to go. Did you see Bo as he sang his last song? He got into it and really had fun. He needs to do that the rest of the series.
Constantine has performed on stage before and he does it well. I just am tired of his "smoldering" look into the camera. We'll have to sit back and see how it goes now, Carrie seems to be getting weaker.
As for the judges..I have watched the show a few years now and see how they do their job. Every season they act the same way and it changes right on cue, from auditions to the finale. They all have a specific way to act and to say what the contestants need to hear and that's what they get paid to do. It's very scripted to me but some take it personally. I love the show...
all IMO

Too late. I get prediction credit when the official announcement is made.

Carrie Underwood

Is it me, or is that the worst thing you've ever heard? It hurt my ears.

I LOVE the music choice tonight, it's fun stuff. Constantine's eyeliner made him look like crapola, Carrie couldn't not move up there..very stiff, Scott is a SLUG and needs to go..no IT factor, Anthony is having a blast and did good..Now for the next half..

 

[morganj614]

Vonzell kicked it in high gear tonight, Anwar sounded terrible to me and K_Jo's hunk a burnin love Bo is NOT singing the right song, that was not 70's dance music.. BOOO!:

 

[K_Jo]

I can't believe they all loved him! I'm quite please, but also surprised because I didn't think it was the right song for him, Dawg.

Constantine, TAKE A BATH!!!!

Vonzell was the only one to kick azz tonight.

 

[alex]

I was disappointed in Simon's critques last night. How can you have a 70's dance song theme and NOT come off like a Las Vegas Hotel act?

Carrie and Anwar were awful.

Konstain was okay

Loved Bo!

Would love to see Scott go tonight!

I just noticed your siggy... I must have missed something... Was Pete drinking on his painmedication at the time...

Nevermind... I found the thread... just another one calling me masculine looking and and ugly... Should have known.

I stuck up for you. (I think )

 

[dems4me]

I stuck up for you. (I think )

yes you did when you weren't "spitting on your monitor"....


You put an end to it by saying it was no longer kinder and gentler of folks...

 

[Toxick]

I think that Vonzelle was by far and away the best last night. Scott - although he did better this week than the previous 9 or 10 weeks - he still had the weakest performance last night.

Anwar - DAWG! What are you doing to me man? He started off so good - and he's going down. And Federov is making a comeback. I thought he sounded really really good last night. Much better than he's been lately. He was almost Aiken-like last night.

Constantine - I don't know the song that he sang, so I can't compare it to the original, but it sounded good. I wouldn't turn the station if it had come on the radio.

I don't care what you all say - I thought Carrie had a strong performance last night. So did Bo Bice - but neither one sang a dance song. They should follow the rules.




Bottom three tonight: Anwar, Scott, and Anthony.

And I miss Nadia's gargantuan fro. She should still be here.

 

[dems4me]

Well here's Paula AbDems 's opinion --

I agree - fatboy has too much attitude... Constatine the rocker is fluff (he sang "I think I love You" for shiat sake) , BoVice is ok but ran out of his coolness edge somewhere over the past two weeks.... blond-born-deaf kid is cute, but he sure can butcher a song at times - as long as you turn the volume down on the TV he could win American Idol .... Vonzelle... she's awesome and has the momentum and has saved her best for last... Anwayie or what ever his name is - is ok, but I didn't agree with his comment about the 70s having the most fabulous error for dressing and clothes, etc... but all and all, he's ok, but he has just to seal the deal for me choosing him... he's just safe I guess.... Carrie, she's really, really good, I like her but was a little disappointed in song selection lately, who's picking out her song selections? Hellen Keller?......

Simon?? Randy??? What do you guys think?
