She’s never appeared famished, to be certain.
But tonight, I thought at first that she might be feeling a bit maternal.
I actually thought she looked pretty good.
You know, I was thinking the same thing.
Anyway, I love her and she blew Kanye (the *big *name) out of the water tonight.
I wonder if they had a Weezer night if they would let someone sing “Tired of Sex?”
My wife says her dream is for someone to sing “Hash Pipe.”
Ok so now who else got the boot?
Horhay.
Kelly Clarkson’s new song, apart from the embarrassingly puerile title lyric, sounds exactly like Since You’ve Been Gone.
Okay, all you East Coasters. Well one of you, anyway. Who’s gone this week other than Jasmine (wasn’t she, like five years ago, Jasmine Trias from Hawaii? Who’s Jasmine? Is she the one with the short blond hair that she put a purple Kool-Aid stain in?)?
Wait, are you saying it was <hell, I guess I better spoil it>Jorge, or are you drunk and trying to cheer about Jasmine being gone?
It was both.
He mentioned it when grilled about every aspect of his life, in search of something interesting. The producers latched on. He’s been forced to mention it again and again – or, more likely, mentioned it maybe twice and its been edited every which way. I guarantee. I have friends who work on reality TV, and they could clip an audition tape to look like a murder confession. And contestants are almost always the least in control of their image.
Or he chased those cameras down and whored out the dead wife story for everything he was worth. That happens too. He was giving a performance. Every bit of it was acted and self-serving. Everything about the guy screams “phony” to me. I don’t believe a word he says.
He probably doesn’t even have a dead wife, or if he does, he’s the one who killed her just so he could get on American Idol. He strikes me as that kind of person.*
*Satirical hyperbole
Is it the glasses? I think the glasses should be made to perform separately from Danny and face elimination the same as any contestant. It’s even money whether he’s wearing them or they’re wearing him.
The only performer who made me look up from my computer was Alison.
The three who made me squirm with embarrassment for them were Anoop, Megan and poor Jorge. I was kind of rooting for the latter because he sings with such passion and really looked nervous. But he blew it with that song.
I can’t wait for the tattoo trend to make an exit. Megan is such a lovely girl and that tattoo makes her look like trailer trash. She should be thankful she made it past the first round.
Adam is interesting but, my gawd, that jet black hair is just jarring. It’s so unnatural looking. I’m not really a fan of his heavy metal voice but at least he’s putting his all into it.
Poor Jasmine picked a song that Mariah Carey covered. It was only going to pale by comparison.
Matt did fine, but unfortunately he lacks the charisma of Justin Timberlake, who they keep comapring him to.
I like that they’re letting contestants play piano/guitar, etc. I don’t think David Cook would have won without his guitar and that would have been a shame.
The fourth judge drags down the show. Poor Alexis got robbed by having, what?, a minute left when she took the mike.
That new Ozzy Osbourne show looks shriekingly awful.
Wow- Kelly Clarkson has a big fluffy bootay. And her voice sounded somewhat… warbly or something. If this album doesn’t go platinum, I think she’ll disappear for a while.
I really enjoyed this user name/post combo!
No big surprises with the eliminations this week. I think that was the first time I’ve ever heard Kelly Clarkson sing, so that was fun. The song was OK, but I have a hard time getting past the title. Does that mean I’m old?
For me it’s not so much the designer frames, it’s that he has a different pair every time we see him, and has since hollywood week. It’s a fashion affectation that draws attention to itself. In spite the scruffy hair and youthful skewing clothes, he comes off as very “middle-aged” to me (just a little husky - his dancing didn’t help) and the glasses actually bring that home more.
At my house he is known as Robert Downey Raphael Jr. I’m not a big fan of glasses as a fashion accessory anyway, but his are ridiculous and as you say, a complete affectation.
I don’t have an issue with folks who switch their frames around. To me it’s no different than changing your purse to match your outfit or having your shoes reflect your mood. It’s a little metrosexual but harmless.
