This Male Bonding thing is bizarre and inappropriate. May I see more footage of Chris and Ace just to be sure?
::jumps up just like a zombie::
Prince!
::old geezer heart gives out yet again::
Holy shit, is that Prince?
Holy crap! That’s Prince aka the Artist Formerly Known as Prince aka Prince. He was announced earlier in the season as on the weekly guest stars but he backed out. Glad to see him there. It’s a great endorsement of the show.
That boy has talent, even though he’s odder than a one-eyed duck.
Nobody puts Baby in a corner! 
Sorry, I’m punchy.
It’s a good thing the voting is over casue both of em suck on this song.
More votes than any president ever? You should be ashamed of yourself, America!
YAY TAYLOR!!!
(It still should haver been Ace, just on looks alone)
That’s votes, not voters, Biggirl. Most people voted multiple times.
Was that David Hasselhoff? Crying???
Oh, crap. I’m going to start crying because Taylor’s singing that dreadful song again.
Why is David Hasselhoff crying?
Phew! This was fun. Can’t wait for next year.
Thanks. I feel much better now.
Ain’t that the truth! He weirds me out, but I love Prince, a.k.a. Font a.k.a Prince.
Whooo!
Soul Patrol, Soul Patrol, Soul Patrol, Soul Patrol!
I just yelled this into my friend’s voicemail on her cell phone. (Surely she has to find such a message more interesting than a frikkin’ Dodgers game.) 
Whooooooooohoooooooo!
Sounds about right.
Some of y’all are connected in other circles… how did the voting break down?
Just watched it. The Bacharachanalia was interesting- I could have sworn Chris would sing What’s New Pussycat! (in such a way that it would sound like Lightning Crashes) and This Season’s Hobbit would have I’ll Never Fall in Love Again, which I have to say The Pickler did a good job reinterpreting.
Is Taylor the first winner who Simon (or for that matter any of the stooges) passed on at the audition?
Oh man. What a beautiful, hysterical two hours of trainwreck. It felt kind of like what you see at the end of the tunnel right after you die. Kat! Taylor! Lisa Tucker! Carrie Underwood! Elliot? Is that you, Mary J. Blige? Bad Clay Aiken guy! Real Clay Aiken guy! Toni Braxton! Woo! Gramps! I’m coming for you…! Mandisa! Kevin Covais! Burt Bacharach! Dionne Warwick! Those three “cowboys”! Prince?!
Pickler looked hot in that leather outfit with the heels. Rowr.
Anybody else think that Seacrest looks like a littler version of Hasselhoff. I bet they’re like russian nesting dolls. You open up Hasselhoff and a smaller version (Seacrest) comes out. And if you open up Seacrest, candy comes out…candy and rainbows.
Okay. Maybe not. But I much prefer my delusion to another smaller Hasselcrest.
I never thought Taylor would make it. I knew he was good, but he just seemed so different from the typical Idol. Score one for the good guys I guess.
