Meh. I love that song and Brooke was just meh.

Did Paula just say “you’re f-in fine”?

So what was the April Fool’s joke? I missed it – I usually come late, counting on dull filler for the first 5 minutes.

Brooke was pretty average on that song. I don’t think she takes criticism well. She always interrupts when Simon tries to tell her anything and she subtly belittles him as if he’s beneath her. She’s got an arrogant streak in her. I can sense it. She’s not really nice. I can tell.

I hope somebody does “Drinkenstein” from that movie Dolly did with Stallone. Ten bucks says Syesha does “I Will Always Love You.”

Cook is boring me tonight. He should have done an emo version of “Coat of many Colors” or something.

I love _Little Sparrow_ and I like Cook a lot, but the two together- Magic! NOT.

I like the bangs be gone (or at least minimized) hairstyle though. (Who does he remind me of? I can _almost_ see it- he reminds me of someone in show biz already.)

And I _ **ABSOLUTELY KNEW** _ that Simon was going to say “cruise ship” for Cruise Director Ramiele.

First squeeze it out good to stock your liquor cabinet with Grade A booze (and by booze I mean coke).

He said he was awesome but not as awesome as last week, then they tongue kissed.

[QUOTE=cricetus]  
I think her interactions with the contestants will be sweet. Dolly Parton has always seemed like a genuinely down-to-earth person to me.  
[/QUOTE]

Dolly is one of my favorite humans.

However… WOMAN! BABY! I love you so this is hard for me to say, but… you’re a legend, you could never sing so much as ‘Happy Birthday’ to your best friend again and yet rest on your laurels, you’ve got the respect of all country and half of rock and you’re a gazillionaire… STOP STARVING YOURSELF! And NO. MORE. COSMETIC. SURGERY. E-V-A-H!

I hate seeing such a multi-talented and incredible performer and songwriter look so “Bride of Frankenstein” horrible. Sixty-two year old women with gi-normous hooters aren’t supposed to have no wrinkles and a wasp waist.

(I’m going to go flog myself now for insulting Dolly\*.)

\*Not to be confused with the Appalachian Irish jug band Flogging Dolly.

Jason needs to come out in a thong next week. It’s about the only way he’ll keep my interest.

I have to admit, week after week, I kind of like dreadlock kid.

And normally I hate white guys with dreadlocks.

I liked Jason this week.

Wow, Simon’s wrong again. He’s been wrong a lot more than usual this year.

Castro was actually quite good, and I can’t wait to hear the studio version of it.

_Here You Come Again_ as a slow twangy torch song? This doesn’t bode well.
