American Idol 04072011

Unbelievable!! Crazy!! I could not believe who went home tonight on American Idol!! It was the singer that I was anticipating to win!! Well, did you vote? No. You did not vote for your singer so...tough!! She went home and there is nothing you can do about it! but you have always known that American Idol winners are not the real ones that have a good voice. American Idol winners has been and is always who has more people voting for him or her! It is a popularity contest, no ifs, no buts! True, but I am still really sad to see Pia Toscano leave. It should have been Stefano Langone, not her! Too bad, he is more popular than Pia! The judges did not believe the verdict either as seen on their faces! It seems that Jennifer Lopez had tears on her eyes and Randy Jackson's mouth was sooo wide open that a fly could have gone straight to his mouth! I did not really see Steven Tyler's facial expression. Is it because of his long, long hair that covers his face??? Oh! Oh! I am not going to touch that with a ten foot pole!! True, the contestants were all singing their hearts out, but Pia was supposed to be the best of them all! I really thought that the 3 contenders for the trophy were Pia, Jacob Lusk and Scott McCreery. I was also surprised to see Jacob in the bottom 3! Oh, well. With Pia's voice and personality like that, I am sure that she will get a recording contract. Just look at the other Idols that made a name for themselves even though they did not get the title! It is not fair!!! Are everything fair in this crazy world of ours? I rest my case!!!

American Idol 03312011

Extra! Extra! Two contestants were just eliminated from American Idol!!! Who were the two?? Can you guess?? Darn!! Just give it to us!!! Why?? Because... I said so!! Too bad!!! Ha! Ha! If Ryan Seacrest can put people in suspense, so can I!!! LOL.... It seems on the last show, the American Idol hopefuls were really fighting for their lives! They were all, okay, almost all, were really good. I could not really believe the quality of the singing the contestants showed this week! The song were Elton John songs which suits some of them really well! Probably it also helps with someone teaching and guiding them every week! The judges were still the same. Is Steven Tyler really that nice?? It seems he does not want to hurt someone's feelings. He reminds me of Paula Abdul! All he can say are nice encouraging words! I really like that...unlike Randy Jacksonthat is trying to be like Simon Cowell! Jennifer Lopez, on the other hand is in between. She is the belle of the show!!! I really liked her big, large head of hair on the second night! Too bad, the cameramen did not do a closeup with her hair! Why not?? Is it because her hair will not fit the television screen??? Oh my gosh! That is an awful thing to say! I almost fell off from my chair from laughing at your comment!! My! My! My! I thought you liked it! Yes, I liked it..but I really did not see a closeup of her with her gigantic hair!! Enough of JLo's hair! There were over 55 million viewers that voted this week. Wow!!! That is a lot! Does that mean the people liked the 3 judges better than before? Maybe. Let's get back to the contestants.... They changed the format of how Ryan Seacrest announced who were safe and who were in the bottom 3. He calls them for a duet, and then he tells them whether they are safe or not..I think this is better because they do not have to sing after their names are announced that it is the end of the road for them! James Durbin really outdid himself, singing like in a concert and ending it with a piano fire! That was really aggressive and brilliant! Naima Adedapo's reggae singing was good but I did not really liked it! It is time for her to go! Thia Megia is still sooo timid looking! What do you expect? She is only 16 years old! Can you perform in front of a live audience when you were 16?? I thought so!! You have to give her credit! But she has been on America's talent, so she should have had experience! Oh, well. Paul McDonald is really the younger version of Rod Stewart...his singing, his moves...except does Rod Stewart always flashes his pearly white teeth??? I honestly do not remember! Any comments??? Well, at the end, Rod Stewart, rather, Paul McDonald dodges another elimination! Naima Adedapo and Thia Megia saw the end of their American Idol dream. Wait! We cannot really say that it was the end for these 2 ladies. For one thing, they are with the tour and who knows what lies ahead of them?? That is sooo true!! Look at some of the Idol contestants that were eliminated but are successful!!! Anything is possible to all of them!!! Okay then, let us see next week who will be eliminated.... in the meantime...have a nice and safe weekend!!! God bless!!!

American Idol, 03252011

Motown returns to American Idol!!! The contestants gave them their all and I am sure that the celebrities were really pleased with the performance of each of the idol hopefuls! The competition is really getting intense, and every contestant is trying to outshine each other!

Ryan Seacrest is sooo dramatic as usual... when he announced who will be on the bottom 3 and who will stay! He gets an " A +" for drama....no wonder he gets big bucks!!! Jennifer Lopez looked really beautiful last night and Steven Tyler is still the same quiet, funny looking guy, who had a birthday cake on the show last night! How about Randy Jackson? The Dawg, I think is trying to be Simon!!

I was really surprised with Naima Adedapo who sang Dancing In The Street. Her showmanship was really great! Last week, I thought she should go. This week she showed that I was wrong and she is here to stay! The other hopeful that I was really surprised was Haley Reinhart! For starters, she took out her beautiful curls and made it staight!! Is that her new image??? It worked together with a little attitude!! How about Paul McDonald? He surely looks and sounds like Rod Stewart! He can make a name for himself just because of that which is a good thing!!

Who were in the bottom 3? Thia Megia, who stepped out from her ballad comfort zone and sang Heat Wave. I think she needs to step up several notches for her showmanship and should lose her shyness!!! But she is only 16!! That is true! That is quite an accomplishment for a 16 year old! Stefano Langone is the next one to be on the bottom 3. He sings good, but his interpretation of Lionel Richie's Hello is something to be desired!! The 3rd person on the bottom 3 was Casey Abrams who is one of the judges favorites! I really do not care for his singing, but I am not a singer and a judge! It was so dramatic how they saved him. Casey started to sing and the judges told him to stopped....they used the one and only save for the season and there are still 11 people!!! Wow!!! I was shocked!!! The judges must really liked him a lot!! As a result, all 11 contestants will go on the tour!!!

Who am I rooting for to win? Pia Toscano, who I believed has the whole package...beauty, poise and voice!!! She just have to show to the world that she can sing other stuff besides ballads!!! The other contender for the title is Scott McCreery with the deep voice! I think that he will go places with or without winning American Idol!! The other one is Jacob Lusk who seems to always get standing ovations from the judges!!! There is no denying that he has a very good voice and he truly has a gift!!!

Next week will be awful for the contestants since there will be 2 that will be eliminated! That should be okay. After all, all 11 will be with the idol tour after the show ends!!

American Idol, 03172010

Karen Rodriguez, the bilingual singer, was eliminated yesterday from American Idol amidst Jennifer Lopez pleading from Randy Jackson and Steven Tyler! How do I know?? I am just assuming since Randy said the judges were not unanimous in their decision and with the look in Jennifer's face. For me, Naima Adedapo should have been the one to let go! Karen has a better voice to me than Naima! I think Naima is just getting sympathy votes, and she probably will say that she does not care if they are just sympathy votes as long as she can stay and be on tour with the other contestants.

Who was in the hot seat besides Karen Rodriguez and Naima Adedapo? Haley Reinhart! This is the second week in a row that she was in the bottom 3! I guess she is getting used to it! Oh, well, do not worry, Haley, I really love your hair!!!! That is gorgeous....very nice!!!

Lee DeWyze, a former American Idol champion was one of the guest performers last night. Goodness gracious! His song and singing was blah and B...O...R...I...N...G...! No wonder he has not made any name for himself!! Do you think it is his choice of music? Probably!

I am always laughing when I see Steven Tyler. His facial expressions are priceless! Is he high because of Jennifer???? Sorry, Tyler, I cannot resist.....I am just kidding!!! Sorry Jennifer...You are just sooo sexy and pretty!!! I love watching Tyler especially when he really like the music!!! Then it seems he is on his own little world, with his eyes closed and savoring the music!!! Tyler....You are one of a kind!!!

Who am I rooting for??? The gorgeous Pia for the girls, and Stefano from the boy's group! I cannot wait next week!!! Have a great and blessed day, everyone!!!!

American Idol, 02242011

The American Idol finally completed its most intense and grueling search for the top 12 girls and top 12 boys to compete for the coveted American Idol title! This year seems to have more talented boys and girls that competed, and the age group was even lowered to 15! Wow! Is that not too young for someone to compete in such a show? Can these youngsters cope with the pressure to be in the limelight and the constant pushing of everyone? No, I do not think so! The American Idol folks and parents of wannabe singers should leave the 15 year olds to play and be children! Even though kids grow fast in today's society, I think these youngsters should be left alone to mature! True, they will be earning big bucks, but is that what will make the kids happy? It will make the parents happy because their kids will be on top of the world, and so do the parents! And what will that take the kids into? Drugs, and more drugs since they will have unlimited access to money! Look at some of the young actors and actresses that have been in and out of rehabs and jail! They are definitely out of control, and a nuisance to society! Am I right? Of course, I am right!

Let us talk about the judges. Randy, "The Dawg" Jackson....You should see his facial expression when someone is singing. It is priceless! And it seems that Randy is trying to fill Simon's shoes! I do not think that The Dawg can fill Simon's obnoxious character! The Dawg is nicer and more mellow! Why was he not let go by the producers? Did they want someone that knows what the show is all about? Maybe, maybe not! I wonder if he ever got more money for staying? I also wonder if he is making more than the two new judges? Hmmm....Will we ever know?

Let us go now to Jennifer Lopez. It seems that she has a very sensitive side that people are seeing now. She even cried when one contestant that is a caregiver to his girlfriend was eliminated! She said that she wanted him to go through but Randy and Steven Tyler vetoed her! JLo even wanted to quit, but she was persuaded by the other two judges to get her bearings back! Wow! What a drama! What an act! These people can really make a dramatic thing. After all, thay are actors! Drama is a good thing to viewers, the show can get the sympathy of viewers. More drama and acting, more viewers, ratings go up! When ratings go up, more money! Right??

How about Steven Tyler? Just looking at him makes me laugh! His facial expressions are something else! And when he sees a beautiful contestant, he is all attentive especially if she can render the song to perfection! And he always close his eyes and seems to be savoring the song when the song is beautifully sang! Is that a sign of a good artist and musician? I do not know...you guys tell me! But I did not realize that he is a foul mouth person! On the other hand, why should I be surprised? After all, he is a rocker! And rockers are famous for foul language, sex, booze and women, is it not? Anyway, he seems to be fun to watch with all his different facial expressions! I find him amusing and entertaining, with or without a bad mouth!

This season will be interesting with a new set of judges and a whole lot of talented singers! Who says American Idol cannot function without Simon Cowell? Simon Cowell, American Idol is still alive....Nenenenenene!!!!!!! Good riddance to you, the American Idol Jerk!!!!

American Idol, 02102011

Last night's American Idol was a drag! It was boring, not good and a waste of my time! It was the first time it was held in Hollywood. You would think that since it was in Hollywood, that it will really be an exciting and glamorous show together with the judges!

First of all, I think it was a huge mistake on the part of the judges to let the auditioneers go through to Hollywood and just be dissapointed big time when they started singing on stage! What was the judges thinking of letting the mediocre singers go through? Whose fault is it? Jennifer Lopez? Steven Tyler? Randy "Dawg" Jackson? I think it was the fault of all three! They gave these auditioneers false hope...only to be shot down big time in Hollywood! Well, at least they were able to see Hollywood! And if I was one of these people, I would have extended my stay and see the sights...Idol or not! After all, it was a free flight and hotel, is it not? I hope the judges learned their lesson and will not give in to the begging of these would be singers! And does these people know whether they can really sing or not? Are they sooo stupid and deaf that they cannot hear that they do not have a singing voice? What do they hope to accomplish in their audition? To be ridiculed and be laughed at? Well, if these people do not audition, it will be boring and corny! I do not think so...it will be a good show with only the real talented singers! Don't you all agree?

Needless to say, there were many tears shed last night and many lost dreams shattered! Do you think these people will stick to their day jobs? Probably not. They will keep on pursuing their dreams and try again next year! Do you think some will have what it takes to get their dreams come true? I do not know. Maybe, maybe not. Stress or not...if you have a good voice, it should still show! Show business is a brutal business, and the judges know that for a fact! So I am not sure why they let these people go to Hollywood! That was really mean of them to give them false hopes! Some of them that even went through are not that good. Well, they have to have a quota! I would not want to be in just to be in a numbers game! I tell you...there will be more tears that will be shed next week!

Do you mean to say that you will still watch the show? I will...just because there are no other shows on! And hopefully, it will be better than last night!

American Idol, 01202011

American Idol is in high gear with two new judges! Who are the judges? Newcomers Jennifer Lopez, Steven Tyler and oldtimer, " the Dawg" Randy Jackson! Jennifer Lopez is really pretty and sexy! Will she be a good addition or a distraction for people on the show??? Ha! Ha! Ha! That is a very good question! We will have to wait and see! One thing I did not know is that Tyler and J. Lo are compassionate people! Why do you say that? When a contestant begs to be included to go to Hollywood, Randy cannot be moved...but she was able to get the two new judges to change their minds! Wow! Will they be like this on the succeeding idol performances?

One of the audition was held in New Orleans...the home of the Mardi Gras, beads, and costumes. There were some good ones like the 15 year old Jacee Badeaux. I thought the minimum age is 16? I was surprised to see so many 16 year olds that have gone through the auditions! I guess this is a good way to earn money and pursue a dream! Whose dream? The youngster or their parents? What do you guys think? Comments?

Then there was Paris Tassin who made J Lo cry with her singing. And then there was the contestant Jovany Barreto that took off his shirt for J Lo. That was the cue for Randy and Steven who were probably dying to show their sorry looking abs! LOL. That is sooo hilarious when Tyler and Randy came onstage to show their abs, which was sooo pale in comparison with Barreto's abs or 6 pack! Why is it called 6 pack anyway? I thought at first it was called 6 pack because of the 6 pack beer that many men love to drink! Ha! Ha! Ha! You thought it is the beer belly? Ay..ya..yay.... The beer belly would not show the stomach muscles that lean. It will be a rather obese stomach and the man's body will be shaped like a pear! Should I continue? No, we got it!

Well, I think we will have an interesting idol show this season. Do you think that the idol ratings will go up with the addition of the two ever popular celebrities? Maybe, maybe not! It will be nicer though with mean Simon Cowell out! But Simon made the ratings go up with his constant snide remarks! Well, you never know what the fans out there really like. That is true. So, we have to wait and see. After all, it is a show with laughs and heartaches. What do you mean? Well, for one thing, there are so many auditioneers that cannot sing! Don't these people know they cannot sing? They go on television to be humiliated? Well, they want a 15 seconds fame, what can I say? How about those that begs to continue? Well, at least they have a free trip to Hollywood! Don't the American Idol shoulder the expenses for each contestant? That alone is a prize for some...to travel and see Hollywood! Comments?
