Wow! American Idol is getting bigger, better, and smarter by the second. Besides all the gimmicks (drink lots of Coke and drive a Ford), the contestants have gone from good to holy shit. Here’s the run down from last night:
Sanjaya Stern: Sanjaya actually sang fairly good last night. He forgot a couple of words and looked like a clown but other than that his voice sounded good. They put his hair is these really lame pony tails to make it look like he had this Mohawk bird thing. It was definitely over board but will give people something to talk about today…American Idol does it again.
Hardcore Gina: Gina got much better! She looked 100 times prettier and sounded 10 times better. American Idol makeover staff needs a serious raise. She sang a slow song and the judges said it was her best performance yet…yes…good job!
Hot Haley: You gotta give it up for Haley. She’s workin’ it lately. Besides the cheap prom jewelry, she looked damn good last night. Only problem is, her looks are the only thing she really has going for her…that’s probably not a bad thing though.
Beat Box Blake: Love, love, love. Blake gets better by the second. He came out of no where. In the beginning he seemed like he wouldn’t go very far, but week after week he gets better and better. Last night they had him all styled up with a clean hair-cut and NY style sweater. He looked good and sounded even better.
Mini-Justin Timberlake: How can you go wrong with Mini-JT? Cool voice, cool look, amazing eyes. Last night he stole everyone’s heart yet again. Gwen Stefani was the guest judge host thing so he sang a No Doubt song and just killed it.
Melinda Mom: Melinda is not American Idol caliber. Yes, if there was a Patty LaBelle Idol she would take the cake but not in this competition. Her voice is amazing but she’s just blah. Last night she wore this blue Austin Powers dress with black leggings. Not sure where they were going with this one…well, come to think of it…I remembered her outfit - so it worked! American Idol wins again.
Lakisha the Great: Now, Lakisha is in the borderline Patty LaBelle competition but she definitely edges out Melinda. She has a younger, stronger, spunkier personality. She sang strong as ever last night with an upbeat song. The judges loved her and rightfully so. She’s just a cool chick.
Jordin Who: Jordin is young so you have to be careful with her but she’s a small fish in a big pond. She had a major identity crisis last night. They had her dressed in a Gwen Stefani’esk outfit that was not for her at all. Jordin is very pretty but you have to be 100 pounds to pull off the outfit she was trying to wear. She sang a Gwen Stefani song that just wasn’t her thing.
Curly Chris: Curly Chris is a cutie pie with a sweet personality, but he looks like he is over American Idol. He commented on how tired he is from working 7 days a week. He sang pretty bad last night and just seems like the life has been sucked out of him. He’s probably thinking, “Kick me off already so that I can go home and get paid to sleep until the American Idol concert tour begins.”
Phil Baldy: “A” for effort last night but no dice. The knit hat was just not working. Phil seems to also be having an identity crisis. He has a good voice but who is he? His good but not amazing voice and lack of identity spells bye bye.
Last night on American Idol, they had a commercial about how you can download performances from their website…genius! This morning I was so excited to watch my favorite performances and come to find out its .99 cents per download. I’m not going to pay it but gosh they are smart. Props to Rickey for hosting the vocal performances for free.
