Down to Four American Idols

Down to Four American Idols

Tonight’s results show was shocking. Not because Matt Giraud got voted off but because Adam Lambert and Kris Allen were in the bottom three. How could that be possible? I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but I think there was something fishy about that bottom three. Yesterday it was leaked that Adam Lambert and Kris Allen [...]

American Idol Final 5 Review

It’s Rat Pack week on Idol, and who’s the guest mentor? Jamie Foxx, of course. Why? Don’t ask me. I can’t stand the guy.  Despite my annoyance with Foxx, the show started off nicely with Kris Allen singing “The Way You Look Tonight.” It was different from his other performances in that he didn’t play [...]

American Idol Disco Week Review

We’re down to the final seven on American Idol – for the second week in a row. Last week the judges used their one-time “Save” to keep Matt Giraud in the competition, a decision I totally agreed with. But it also means two contestants have to leave this week, so tonight’s performances were crucial. Lil [...]

Matt Giraud Saved on American Idol

    SAVED!   Matt Giraud was saved by the American Idol judges Wednesday night in the first judges’ “save” in AI history.  As a result, two contestants will have to be eliminated next week, one possibly still being Giraud.   Giraud sung the very cheesy Bryan Adams’ “Have You Ever Really Loved a Woman”  Tuesday night.   Perhaps he should [...]

Lambert Wows American Idol

Lambert Wows American Idol

Where you feeling really old when you watched Tuesday night’s episode of AI?  I was, since this week’s show was based on songs from the year the contestants were born- which was all in the 80′s with even one contestant being born in the (gulp) 90′s.   Adam Lambert seemed to get the best reaction when [...]

American Idol Down to 9

American Idol Down to 9

Tonight 27 year-old oil rig worker Michael Sarver was voted off American Idol.  The judges weren’t happy with his rendition of “Ain’t Too Proud to Beg,” and even though he did a final begging of his own when he sang his song before finding out he was going home tonight.  He was in the bottom [...]

Idol’s Top 11 Go Country

Idol’s Top 11 Go Country

This is Grand Ol’ Opry week on American Idol, with special guest Randy Travis, who is one weird-looking dude, like a cross between Ghost Rider and Skeltor. So how did the contestants handle country music? Surprisingly well. There were only a few stinker performances, making it the best night so far this season. Texan Michael [...]

Idol’s Top 13 Hit the Big Stage

Simon, Paula, Randy, and Kara walked out on stage tonight to screaming cheers. It may have been the first time they ever made an actual entrance, and it gave Simon, the only non-performer in the group, a taste of what it’s like to stand out on an enormous stage in front of a big audience. [...]

American Idol’s Top 13?

American Idol’s Top 13?

When Ryan opened the show saying it was “a very special American Idol,” I was hoping someone was going to get pregnant. But he just meant the judges would be choosing the last three to round off the Top 12. There was a surprise, though — the Top 12 became the Top 13. It is [...]

Idol Picks 9 out of 12

Idol Picks 9 out of 12

Tonight’s American Idol had double excitement in store: three new additions to the Top 12 and 8 Wild Card picks for tomorrow’s competition. So let’s get to it. Only one of my three picks made it, so I’m pretty bummed. But thank god the one who made it was Lil Rounds. She is so awesome [...]
