American Idol, 1/13/09

Oh yeah, I like spike-faced girl who’s killing her band. Nice choice of song and great pipes.

Dun dun duuuuuuuuuuun!

No Doubt

From what I’ve heard, yes. Simon’s the tie breaker.

They should’ve shown an example where that happens early on in the show. I think that’s what everyone is wondering about.

I’m sure liking Band Killer better than that poseur. Oh, I don’t think he’s gonna make it.

I can’t believe this guy is crying.

Are the producers insane? Don’t they know there’s a frighteningly large amount of people that watch audition week solely for the bad auditions? I know there’s few things more personally satisfying than watching someone who is completely deluded (and often downright cocky) with their terrible singing voice to get put in their place and have a reality check.

I wish they wouldn’t telegraph who’s going to make itand who’s not quite so obviously. If they act normal, you know they’re going to get through.

Wow this 16 year old can sing.

Ah, my show.
The guy with the low voice reminded me of “let my pipol go” guy.
We need more entertaining bad, like Reynaldo!

Nobody who cites Hillary Duff as an influence is ever going to be any good.

Disclaimer: I’m only online for a moment while my wife is on the phone. We’re watching on DVR, and we’re just up to this point in the show, so I don’t know if this had been addressed downthread or not.

As soon as she started singing, my first thought was “Oh no…a very talented tattooed chick. Looks like another season of hearing about ‘that filth on her arm’”. :smiley:

I’m watching timeshifted. The afraid guy in the striped shirt sounded like someone was playing Aaron Neville backwards.

The tats don’t bother me but that spike in her face is damned distracting.

Hate bikini girl. Hope she makes it all the way to the competition.

Ok, it’s a personal thing. I don’t like tattoos and piercings. call me a fuddy duddy. It’s not American Crackhead.

That entire bikini girl sequence made my skin crawl in at least seven different ways. That girl is nowhere near as cute as she thinks she is, and Cara DiWhatever stooping to compete with her, and the awkward interchanges with Secreast, and just yeargh.

Bleuagh.

Hee- I see what you did there.

Not crazy about anyone yet, but did kinda like that 16yo pixie that made it through.

Bikini girl was hot and could sing. What was Paula and new judge’s problem? Is it just because she was hotter than them? Her singing isn’t spectacular, but she was as good as most of the others who make it through.

I though cute girl was cute. I hope she pulls herself together and we see more of her. I know no one’s name. The one with the super curly hair and over-plucked eyebrows.

And now we know for certain Simon is the tie-breaker. I liked her too.
