WOOHOO American Idol!!!  2010 American Idol!!

Random humor:
--Snafu #1 - Ryan Seacrest's mike going during Kris Allen's singing
--Snafu #2 - One of Simon's rejects talking about how he was having a Kanye moment and taking Simon's job (which would have been fine) with an awkward cut to commercial - was that not intentional?
--Snafu #3 - The idol music randomly coming on, then not going, right before the commercial around 1:45.

Did they not rehearse this?

Random thought - where was David Cook?  Too busy for the show that made him not just some random dude?

Getting Ready for the Showdown!

I think you know who I'm cheering for. Go CUTE go!

The Cute Guy

Kris Allen.

From here on out, your new name is 'the cute guy'. Let's face it, it's what I've been calling you all season so far. It's played a large role in the fact that you made it this far, my friend. Even having a cute wife hasn't hurt the cause. You're nice to look at. And right now, that's all I care about. Since Allison (moment of silence) has left the show, I am now cheering for you to take the title, cause if you don't, well, it'll be Adam or Danny, and that is a reason to rally behind you. Yeah, it's like you're John Kerry in 2004!!

It was once questionable if you would even make the top 12. Now look at you boy! Our next American Idol? Or America's Next Top Model? They're one in the same at this point to me!

American Idol Update - Final Five

This is my favorite contestant who is left. Danny is good, but I'm sorta over him. I like Matt Girard, but I won't cry if he goes home; it's probably his time. Kris is nice to look at (we've already discussed him previously), and Adam is just not my style. Allison is my girl. I am going to be optimistic for her.

Two American Idol Contestants I Could Do Without....

Kris and Adam.

Ok, fine, they are both good. However, Kris has lasted thus far on being a pretty boy moreso than on his singing ability. I am not really sure he should have made the top 12 with that rendition of "Man in the Mirror". No offense to him or his fans. He's decent, but I really don't know about top 5 or, if it goes so far, top 4 material.

However, Adam. He is just not my style. He is a little too 'Pete Wentz' for my taste. I would be indifferent to him, however, the lovefest between the judges and him and the audience and him DRIVES ME NUTS. It's not that there's anything wrong with him - it's just that he's a little too over the top theatrical 'cabaret' if you will (that's for you, Simon). The makeup and performances on stage are just WAY TOO MUCH for me. And I feel like if another contestant were this style, they'd rip him to shreds - but they for some reason really took to this one. That, and when he's good, he's been pretty good, but not more outstanding than any other contestant on the show. But they act like he's something they've never seen before. Anyhow. I predict he'll be the 'surprise' elimination in the next two or three weeks - I don't think he'll see the finals. My prediction.
