I’m not going to recap the American Idol results shows. They take too long and I don’t have enough time. What I will do is announce who was eliminated each week and give you my take on it. Sorry that I can’t do more!
Let’s start with the gals. The first two eliminations aren’t that surprising [...]
It’s all about the guys tonight on American Idol. First up tonight is Todrick Hall. He sings “Since You’ve Been Gone”. Even though he’s first, he doesn’t come across as nervous. He’s very familiar with performing. He just finished up working with Fantasia in The Color Purple. Ellen says he has stage presence, but the [...]
Finally, we’re at the part of American Idol that I love. Tonight we hear all twelve female contestants sing, tomorrow we hear all twelve males and then on Thursday, the bottom two males and the bottom two females will be eliminated. In other words, it’s do or die contestants!
Ellen starts us off with a laugh [...]
American Idol…the Olympics…Shaun White…Top 24. It was a hard choice, but the Olympics won out. So I DVR’d American Idol and that’s why the blog is running pretty late. This Idol is a big one because the remainder of the top 24 are being revealed. I’m happy to finally see (and hear?) all the contestants.
First [...]
Ryan tells us that the final 71 contestants performed with a full band. After they finished singing, there was no feedback from the judges. Once all the contestants performed the judges picked who would stay and who would go. In traditional American Idol style, the contestants are divided into three rooms. Now here’s the thing. [...]
Okay, here we go, it’s group day on American Idol. As AI regulars, you know that this is the day where all the drama plays out. We’ll learn who the pros are and who the whiners are.
I hope you watched the rehearsals because I can’t describe to you what was going on. Groups were feeling [...]
I am so excited that American Idol is finally at Hollywood week! It’s about time new judge Ellen DeGeneres makes her first appearance. She makes a comment to Simon about him planning to leave after she just arrived. He gives her that typical Simon smile.
The first round of Hollywood week will have groups of 8 [...]
Tonight is the final audition show before Hollywood! Yay!!! American Idol says they saved the best for last. We get to see some of the contestants that they didn’t show us throughout the other weeks.
First we get another look at Larry “Pants On the Ground” Platt and hear how he’s influencing the whole country. I [...]
This is finally the last week of auditions before American Idol heads to Hollywood. Do I hear a woohoo? Today’s stop is Denver, Colorado. Today’s celebrity judge is once again Victoria Beckham. I don’t mind her, she’s a decent judge, but I still say she needs to gain about 10 pounds.
The first contestant showcased tonight [...]
Hi Everybody!
Did you happen to catch last night’s Grammy awards? If you did, then you noticed that American Idol is playing a big influence on the music world. Past American Idol stars were everywhere. Especially noteworthy was Carrie Underwood and Jennifer Hudson along with Usher, Celine Dion and Smokey Robinson in the tribute to Michael [...]
