If you want to recall how she sang in her original audition, you can see a clip of it here. A clip of her February 3rd performance here.
There’s another young woman with a similar haircut named Latoya London, but I don’t think we’ve seen much, if any, of her singing, as I recall. There are several names/faces among the top 32 that I don’t recognize in the least.
I hate those, too. I’ve noticed that they usually do a run just after they hit a sour note, to cover it up. Lame. :rolleyes:
Lisa Marie Wilson ~ Pool Girl. She has GOT to go. “If I forget my words, please forgive me. Must be in the water!” NO! YOU were in the water! THAT is the reason. I thought Pool Guy made it too, but I can’t find him in the list of contestants.
Simon Is Gay Girl ~ She’s joking in SUCH a big way. Glad she passed though. I’m sure we’ll see some grovelling. Only thing is, she just may be good enough to win - which I wouldn’t want.
I’m MORE than ecstatic that Scooter Girl is out. She is the most annoying bowl of issues I’ve seen in a while. She’s the kind of girl you have to force a smile with, when she pulls her antics, just to be polite. Plus, I found that her voice wasn’t as good as the judges were saying. She seems falsetto the whole time. Maybe it’s because I’ve grown to hate her face.
Ah, CheekyMonkey, we meet again. I think pool guy is Alan and he was eliminated last night.
I’m glad to see we agree on something (scooter girl). My husband said if she made it, he wouldn’t watch the show, she annoys him that much!
Yes, Fantasia is the one. Thanks Shayna.
The girl is soooo country. I like her. Pretty unfortunate about her name, though.
That was Kira Scott, and she got cut in the second elimination last night. Good riddance; I’m tired of the attitude.
Yeah, Brie could come out as gay and then Simon could confront those rumors that he’s English.
One thing that I really liked about Simon: when “those rumors are right, you must be gay” girl was going off at him and Paula jumped all up in her Kool Aid over it, Simon was completely non-chalant and said “I couldn’t care less what you’re saying to me” and was totally professional in his criticisms. I think he actually can can take it as well as giving it out.
Too bad Alan got the axe before he had the chance to give some good screen capture worthy nudity. Total Elvis-villain of a guy, but he was most definitely fine.
Vladowski’s mom could star in a Hungarian version of GYPSY as Mama Rose. “I was a major pop star in Hungaria in the 70s.” That’s nice dear; this is LA in the 21st century. Go stand over there between Adam Rich and Tab Hunter in the “Who Gives a Damn Who You Used to Be” Lounge.
BTW, John Stevens looks like he’s auditioning for CONAN O’BRIEN: THE PUBERTY YEARS. Great voice, but I wonder if you’re really prepared to deal with this level of competition at 16; I’d make the age limit at least 18.
lol I thought that at first too, but think about it: What decade are the majority of songs they sing on American Idol from? (Hint: not the nineties or two-thousands)
Plus, her daughter’s trio kicked ass in the group performance.
Well, Sampiro, I 'm sure you must agree that Brie has to be One of Us.
As far blond, muscle twinks go, Alan was definitely fine (and defined, too), but I find Matt Rogers (the football player who was at the Rose Bowl) to be much more my cup of woofiness. He could toss a pass through my end zone anyday.
Mmm, bears!
How awful must he have been to get booted off during the first round in hollywood? I thought for sure he’d be in the top 5.
Are you talking about Red? I too was (initially) impressed–until his last song last song. Weak. Really disappointing. Though I think he can softly croon, louder singing really betrays his lack of vocal depth. If talent rules, he’ll never make it into the Top 10. My guess? Four of the Top 5 will be gals.
If Matt Rogers doesn’t get into the final 12, I probably won’t watch. I feel that strongly about him.
I also strongly favor Amy Adams, but I have a feeling that so many other people do, there’s little to no risk of her not being a finalist. Still, if she and Matt both don’t make it, I doubt I’ll be interested enough to watch.
I also like Briana a lot, but I’m resigned to the possibility that she won’t get voted in. I like her because she seems so mature (which is also one of the reasons I like Matt). It’s clear that she doesn’t warm up to people easily, but it’s also clear that that’s not because of any attitude or egocentrism; it’s just the way she is. She’s a no-bulls— person, that’s all. And, she’s one of the few who never gave any of the judges any lip.
I mean, there were times when I was just hollering at the TV, “Can’t you just say ‘Thank you’ and shut up? Or nod and accept the criticism, and maybe ask how you can be better, like Clay did, but otherwise STFU?!” Briana didn’t do any of that. She did express frustration about “some girl’s mom is up there and she’s p—ing me off”, but I just liked the way she said it! And the next night, when I saw the mom, I could fully understand why she felt that way.
On the whole, I think her demeanor is way more professional than all the shrieking and gossiping that almost all the women have displayed thus far. But I think, when it ends up in our hands, the people voting at home are going to be like beauty pageant judges, who want BIG emotions and BIG displays.
I agree about Briana. I like her. I like that she has a bit of cynicism about her but she doesn’t seem like a bitch, she just seems a little uncomfortable around all those other morons which is totally understandable. I don’t feel like she takes herself so seriously, she’s just a bit of a fish out of water.
She also doesn’t seem to be as insanely narcissistic as most of them do. She seems like she’d be cool to have a beer with. I hope she makes it to the final 12, at least.
I’m so happy Red John made it through, sure he flubbed the group song but then again, so did nearly everyone else.
I feel for Scooter Girl, I dug her and I think she screwed herself by trying to actually do what the judges asked. “You’re too wacky” so fine, she tries to sing straight, then gets “You’re too boring, find yourself” when all she did was try and do as they asked. I could totally see her in Annie Get Your Gun or something.
Thank Og Alan the chippendale guy is gone, ugh!
Gobear I’m sorry, but you’re going to have to stop saying proprietary things about my future husband Matt. swoon
Has anyone heard Brianna sing yet? I saw interviews, but not anything with her singing. I might have missed it, though, since some of you seem to have heard her.
The only time she was shown singing was on Sunday night in the initial audtions. She sang At Last, IIRC. The judges mentioned that she seemed a contradiction, but told her to go with it. Her voice is just amazing- and she’s gorgeous to boot.
People actually watch this show? I’d rather clean all the bathrooms in Grand Central Station with my tongue then watch one episode of that crap.
How nice for you. Perhaps you should use this scale of repulsion when opening up and reading threads too. That way you won’t be subjected to reading about such crap.
I find it just hilariously ironic than in insulting a show on which people do covers of popular songs, you stole a line from a Weird Al Yankovic song.
