The look on David Foster’s face was priceless when The Pickler opened her piehole for the first time.

Even a blind guy can tell she’s a blonde.

Jumping Jesus on a pogo stick … as soon as Pickler _opens her mouth_ I feel like I’m going to have a brain aneurysm. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah … _why is David Foster encouraging her to use that glass-shattering shriek?_

Holy crap, this is bad. Bad would be an improvement. She’s trying to bore me into not noticing that she can’t sing a damn note. _Not one._ And somebody set the makeup gun on “Grace Jones,” which … _why does God hate me?_

She didn’t sing very well, did she?

Robo-Kelly had really sucky hair, possibly worse than Elliot’s tie even.

Was there a single note in tune in that song?

That was the worst version of “Unchained Melody” I’ve ever heard. I’m sick of the “Ahm sorry’s” This isn’t “Sorriest Idol.” That falsetto blew worse than Ace’s.

LOL… the music is cutting off Simon’s tirade…

Is everybody just doing bad tonight?

Now I’m worried that The Pickler did even worse than Kat. No, don’t go before Kat! Even though Kat’s voice is a gazillion times better than yours, I find you far, far more entertaining!

Even MrValley, whose idea of grooming is to get his hair cut too short so that he can go longer between haircuts, said, “Her hair looks awful!”

Biggirl, we saw Kat’s wardrobe malfunction here! I didn’t notice undergarments but my dad sure did! Glad to hear I’m not the only one who saw that button pop.

Please tell me that I am not the only person listening to Paris sing right now who is thinking about that scene in the movie “Big” where Tom Hanks sings into the phone to his mother and he almost starts to cry. God, I love that movie.

What? Oh, I’m not crazy about Paris’s arrangement, or this particular performance. It’s not bad, but she isn’t Barbra. At least it’s different than the way we’re used to hearing this song, which is OK, I guess.

It looks like Paris is going with the Kristy McNichol hair tonight. Kind of boring song but she sounds great. I don’t think a single one of the guests has yet said they weren’t blown away by it.
