American Idol 4/25

Well now, I didn’t think she sounded that bad. She’s no Whitney, but then again, even Whitney’s no Whitney any more.

I do not like the eye playing with the camera.

I’m not thinking this is Kat’s best performance. For starters, this is not a smiley song, and yet she insisted on smiling all the way through it. And her voice is not suited for this kind of screamy song. Plus, it sounded like she was flat when she was pushing really hard. And her dress is the wrong shade of yellow for her. I didn’t like it.

Bad song choice, then?

Was that Ryan’s backhanded compliment???

About this weeks theme. Do they have to sing a song from the album or just any old love song will do?

She doesn’t have Whitney’s chops. She also didn’t seem to understand what she was singing. Still a really good voice. I thnk it would help if she’d stop mugging for the camera and try to connect with the audience.

agreed.

With a bonus helping of boobage!

I like Katherine, actually, although the odd smiling and waving when she’s supposed to be emoting ain’t doing her any favors. When you’re relying on cleavage as much as she’s done all season, well…hey, at least she’s self-aware so that’s something.

I don’t really know the peoples name but the girl with the yellow dress who sang the whitney houston song seemed to spend a little too much time focusing on that one particular part of the song (the part David foster suggested she change). The rest of it was pretty rough.

Forget the boobs! Are MrValley and I the only ones who swear they saw a wardrobe malfunction? I’m telling you, a button popped and we were seeing Kat undergarments. I think I may have nightmares for weeks.

That tie is ooooogly. And I loooooooove that song.

Ryan rudely said, “Well, everyone with the volume off will give you a lot of votes. You had great moves in that dress.”

Very mean.

I live for mean.

Elliot’s got on an oooogly tie. I love this song. And who is the sighted guy giving all the directions? Why isn’t the blind guy doing it?

What song is this that Elliott is singing? And what is with that tie? I’m with Biggirl: “That tie is ooooogly.” In about seven kinds of ways.

Oh, and doesn’t David Foster already have his own reality show (“The Princes of Malibu”)?

Kevin Nealon? really? why?

Oh man… Paula is wasted tonight already?

Elliott’s tie is heinous.

I just realized what bugs me about him–he always seems to miss his cues and not sing along with the music.

Mahaloth–I thought he said "Everyone with the volume on . . . "

OK, I heard a very different performance than Randy and Paula. She’s an idiot.

Why is Paula crying???

Holy shit Paula is out of her box. This is the worst I’ve seen her in a while.

Elliot’s not doing very well. He should have made me melt but he didn’t. Randy’s right. That arraingment sucked eggs. Is Pauler crying??? Whoa, smell her cup, somebody.

Ahhhhh…the reason I stopped watching this show.

Thanks for reminding me, Paula!

I hated that last song. It’s hard for me to judge someone’s vocal performance when I hate the song as much as I did.
