American Idol 2/9-10

Hollywood Week.

And Ellen’s first appearance. I’m mildly interested…

Hollywood Week is always my favorite. I really like getting to know the actual talent for the first time. So many times people audition with songs they couldn’t get cleared to air on TV, so we don’t see them until Hollywood Week.

if they get to the final 24 (?) don’t they always show their audition when they are voted out of the show?

Hey, it’s the “Aer-o-plane” girl.

That’s too bad. She was nervous as shit, but she has something. I’d much rather listen to her than that obnoxious girl milking the senile grandmother.

My TiVo locked up, and I missed everything before Neck-Tat guy. Anything worth recapping for me?

Paula Abdude was awesome. Country aeroplane girl was heartbreaking; I really liked her audition, too.

Janelle! Yes.
Necktat also great.

I’ve read that Janell is Tim Tebow’s girlfriend.

This Lilly girl is interesting. Needs a hair color that didn’t come out of JRPG fan-art, though.

Love Lilly. Can’t tell if I think she has a huge ego yet, though.

Which one was Janell[e]?

Ah crap! Why does real life have to interfere with my TV watching? Why do I have to switch on to a friggin sob story?

Half-naked Cowboy rocks!

Has Ellen always looked this much like Lori Petty and I just didn’t notice?

I had to Wiki Tebow. Yeah, I’m not a big sports fan.

There is a goat-like quality to a few of the guys I saw (which was not much), Half-Naked Cowboy was not one of them. I liked-- dare I say it?-- the retarded kids sister’s voice. Man, I’m mad I missed most of this.

Which one is Janell?

This one is a ringer, whoever she is. She’s no amateur. She sounds like she’s probably recorded before.
