Your Top 12, America
So, it's the usual, isn't it? A Top 12 with the obvious first 2 to get the boot (Haley and Sanjaya) and the others doing the tour. My favorite part of the evening, truth be told, is the big announcement. It's about time a show of this magnitude step up like that. I think it's fantastic and I'm all the prouder to be a fan of this show. I bet that trip was good for Simon. I enjoyed the clips. Having lived in Africa myself, I know those kids. The announcement brought tears to my eyes. I think it's great.
Blake needs shorter cuffs. I thought he'd broken both arms. But I'm thrilled (and not surprised) that he's top 12.
Blake, Lakisha, Sligh, and Doolittle. Duh. No-brainers.
I still fall for Ryan's antics--he can get my tummy flipping with his "You are NOT . . . [big pause] . . . ." He made me nervous with Sligh. PHA-EW! I mean with this show, who knows?!
Jared Cotter. I'm sad. I like him. Darn it. I wonder how it would be for people like him, Nikko Smith, Rickey Smith, and other ousted idols to get together and form a band like "Take 6." That's be awesome.
Carrie Underwhere is not likeable and is getting too skinny. What happened to her healthy weight?
Antonella's not in the Top 12?! That's a shocker really. But good. I'm so glad I don't have to hear her again. She reminds me of someone who sings along to the radio and belts it out thinking they sound just like the voice coming out of the speakers when in reality, they don't. She's already been offered $250,000 by the "Girls Gone Wild" people and Playboy is after her, too. I think she'll be okay. Ta-tas (pun totally intended).
Haley vs. Sabrina. Crap. That is just SO wrong. Mary Poppins over a dang good diva. And if one of those two good "middles" is getting the boot, I would've preferred Stephanie, to be honest. Her LaToya like-ness is off putting.
Again, VERY cool project. April 24th and 25th. I think it's great. Way to go, American Idol people.
Sanjaya vs. Sundance--good set up. Either one getting in is a shock at this point, truth be told. I love Sundance's plea, "Somebody, give me a job!" Maybe Fuel is still looking for a lead singer.
LOL @ Ta-tas!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing!
ReplyDeleteI was pleasantly surprised that Antonella didn't make it through. Maybe Rosie can let it go now. I'm sure she'll find some other obscure cause to champion.
I agree, GREAT announcement, and not what I was expecting at all!
ReplyDeleteI wonder who's job it is to come up with "how many ways can we mess with their minds before we tell them whether or not they made it"?
I will have to speak up here since I think I'm the lone voice who's a fan of Carrie's! (Where's Fred when I need him??? ;p) I will respectfully disagree, I think Carrie is very likeable and she did really well! I wish they would have spoken to her a little bit or something though. She does look *too* skinny...
Ditto on the Antonella shocker, that was a surprise! Maybe Mark's right and it was the extreme rudeness to Haley that caused people to vote her through. I saw Hugh Hefner and his *gals* admiring Antonella's pics...they thought she'd fit in great there! She's got plenty of options if she chooses to go that route...
Yeah, Rosie's gone off the deep end with her causes.
