Your American Idol…Scotty McCreery

Wow, now that’s what I call a finale show!  Tony Bennett, Beyonce, Jack Black, Tom Jones,Carrie Underwood, Lady Gaga, Tim McGraw, Bono and the list goes on and on.  I loved Jack Black and Casey Abrams.  They are so good together.  Did you see Jack Black dancing when Tom Jones sang?  He is so cool.

Scotty McCreery was THE most gracious winner of American Idol I’ve ever seen.  His parents should be very, very proud of the job they did raising that boy.  When he started singing and instead of taking the moment for himself, he walked down and hugged his family and then came back up on stage to hug each of the other contestants, I was very impressed.

I feel closer to all the ex-Idols after getting to spend some time with them yesterday.  I have to say once more that every one showed how much they really, truly appreciate their fans.  I know some felt that Jacob was conceited and stuck up, but in person he was great.  He talked to everyone equally, with absolutely no conceit.

I loved the American Idol contestant “skits”.  Usually those skits are silly and stupid, but I enjoyed these.  There are some comedians among this year’s Idol’s.

Of course my favorite moment of the night is my guy Steven Tyler.  I hear he won’t be returning next season, not sure if that’s true, but I’ll be very sad to see him leave.

So another year of American Idol comes to a close.  Thanks to all of you for helping me here with your always welcome comments.  I love you all!  BBBlogger has asked me to come over and blog on Big Brother so look for me over there!  See you in July.  G’nite Bloggergal XXOO

Sorry I’m not a fan of country music, I knew scotty would win, what is the big deal about him? Yikes, I want to mute the sound. James should have won this he was the most deserving.

I have to ask….Was the J-lo/Marc Anthony routine suppose to be real entertainment or was it a spoof???

ted Says:

That is a good question, Frances, as I wondered that myself. I would hope it was a spoof, but have my doubts. It was pretty amateurish to me, and in borderline poor taste. But, seeing Shelia E. made up for it.

All in All… a very entertaining show. I’m glad Scotty won over Lauren, as I think he is more Idol material… and you all (or should I say y’all) know we have not heard the last out of this kid. Quite a few will have careers… 1 will be an Idol… 1 will go on to acting… but most will go back to real life. But, I do think that this season’s cast was one of the more talented overall.

Lots of Stars performing… good thing they all have a record or tour to promote… and nothing wrong with that. The contestants did a pretty good job performing with the stars too. I thought they could have done without adding Bono and Lady Gaga and Beyonce’s second number, and just stuck with performances by Stars paired with the contestants. And this list does include Marc Anthony and Steven Tyler (at the risk at committing heresy on this blog), I did enjoy Stevens performance (better that the video a few weeks ago) though, but just think this show should be all about the kids.

Of course… I enjoyed Haley and Tony the most. Jacob was very good, and Casey and Jack Black… excellent. It was fun to see all the girls together and thought they did great. James and Judas Priest was a trip. The duets for Scotty and Lauren where very good, and what a thrill for those two, to perform with Tim and Carrie.

Thanks for doing the good time, Bloggergal… see you next time!

p.s… You and Scotty make a nice pair!

Loved this site and I particularly loved Ted and his erudite comments. I will miss both of you.

I do not think there is a place for Gaga’s performance on a show that obviously caters to a very young kid crowd. And, I agree hat the Lopez/Antony came close to that bordering edge.

The best to you and I’ll be looking forward to you in the future.

Im glad Scotty won and from the middle of the season, I had a feeling he was going to win. Every week he came out and sang great, his song selection was very good and all the fans just seemed to love him. Lauren Alaina also did a great job, her and Scotty both deserved to win, but beacuse Scotty was so unique and such a fan favorite there was no way he was going to lose. I think this was probably the season with the most talented singers and each unique in there own way. I did also, enjoy Steven Tyler’s performance during the idol finale and he still can sing great.

Basta Says:

I think Scotty is a strong singer and am very glad he won american idol. The only other contestant I felt could have won was James but that’s a whole other story. In this season the girl’s weren’t all that great and that held true until the end. This was a great season and Steven Tyler’s performance was a great way to end it.

amore Says:

I enjoyed the show but I was not happy with the winner. As a matter of fact I didn’t like either one of them. Well bloggergal, I guess we have to wait for another season. Now I am counting the days for “BB”. Talk to you soon.

Scotty was by far the most ready to be a star. His voice is tailor-made for country and if he doesn’t make it huge then that will come as a huge shock to me personally. He may become the most successful winner ever. If Steven Tyler doesn’t return then ill be disheartened. I think that he was a good judge. He brought some funny moments to the show and who is more talented than steven tyler? It must be nice taking compliments and criticism from a great singer like steven rather than from someone like Simon who, while he is an icon, is not a great singer. To end I would just love to say that this was a great season of idol and best of luck to all the competitors, they have bright futures ahead of them.

Murphy Says:

Scotty was my favorite since day one. His story was amazing and I give him all the credit for skipping his baseball season to keep his dream alive. He might just be considered the most successful winner ever. The rest of the contestants were great competitors and it was a great show to follow all the way through. All the contestants have very bright futures and I will look for them to do big things before their life is over. Scotty was the most talented and deserved to win.

Edward Kordish Says:

I believe that Scotty was the most talented this season. I disagree with Aggie27, James may have been deserving but he went home the same exact week that Chris Daughtry went home, and Daughtry is the third most successful singer from Americal Idol. The first being Carrie Underwood and the second being Kelly Clarkson. So James Durbin may end being another Chris Daughtry and becoming very successful.

Marissa U Says:

I was very disappointed with the reults of this year’s american idol finale. Lauren was an outstanding singer and was able to sing everything that came her way. Scotty was only a country singer. He sang the same way and the same type of music every week. He did not deserve to win.

Galli Says:

i was happy that scotty won. I thought either scotty or james was going to win but as soon as james got eliminated i new that scotty was going to win.I think that he was the most talented and the best this season

kat h Says:

I never liked Scotty, but I’m happy he won over Lauren. His voice is much better than hers. I still belive that Casey should’ve won though. Hopefully Scotty goes on to become successful with his new career.

I believe that America chose the right person in Scotty. Scotty was great all year and he truly deserves this honor. He will go onto doing great things in the singing world.

Tyler Y Says:

Scotty didn’t deserve to win. He sounded the same every single time he sang. There was nothing original about him. I am not a fan of Lauren either but she would have been a better choice than Scotty. I knew he was going to win since the beginning but that doesn’t mean he is good.

Darion Says:

I think Lauren should have won, but im happy for Scotty. My favorite performance was Casey Abrams and Jack Black. Carrie Underwood was also one of my favorites.

daveh Says:

I was disapointed that James didn’t make it into the final two. I was happy to hear that Scotty won though. He was definitly the most talented after James. Scotty would have impressed me more if he sang more than just country though.

kevinc Says:

I thought that both Scotty and Lauren were deserving of the title. They were both very talented, and will both have very bright careers. We haven’t seen the last of these two incredible competitors.

Dimick Says:

I’m so happy that Scotty won American Idol. He was my favorite singer through the whole thing. I didn’t expect a country singer to win it. I thought it would have been someone that is in rock or pop. It also did not seem like a disappointed crowd when his name was announced. I didn’t really like his first single he is coming out with. I would like if he did a rock/country song.

Julianna S. Says:

I was very exited that scotty won. In my oppinion he was by far the best singer on the show. It especially amazed me that he was so young and could be that good of a singer. I did however also like Lauren, she is very talented but Scotty deserved to win.

tam y. Says:

I’m very happy with the judges choice of Scotty winning, he’s been my favorite. He’s extremely talented and I think he’s one of the greatest american-idol winners. Everyone had a lot of talented on the show this season, but Scotty was a great choice of winning. His performing was always so good.

Nick Kaminski Says:

I’m glad Scotty won over Lauren, but i still think James Durbin could have won because of his hard-edged rock style of singing that has never been heard on American Idol before.

obrien Says:

I am so glad Scotty won! He has been my favorite since the beginning. I knew from the first day i heard him sing he would win the contest. I think it is very well deserved, he is very talented. But i do not think Lauren should have been the runner-up. I thought she should have been eliminated a long time ago.

Nadia Says:

Im really happy Scotty won. He was my favorite since the beginning. I think Lauren did pretty good but not good enough to win. Scotty, hands down, was the best in my eyes. I think that if Scotty didnt win , i would be a little dissappointed because Lauren shouldnt have even made it to the finals. But i am really happy Scotty won.

damian o Says:

I am glad to see that Scotty won. I would have liked it better if James Durbin won but I am still happy with the results of the finale. I believe that the runner up should not have been Lauren. I believe the runner up should have been Scotty and James should have won.

Jordan Aranas Says:

Overall, this season was very successful. There was plenty of talent on the show this year. I’m very happy Scotty won but I must say, I was quite dissapointed to see that James Durbin did not was not the 2011 AMERICAN IDOL. He was my first choice from the start and he has a great personality, a godly voice, a good story behind him and he knows how to work the crowd. Scotty was my second choice though so I really can’t complain. He is a godsend to country music and it’s awesome to see that a boy in highschool won. I enjoyed Jacob’s performance and although I didn’t get to see the others, I assume they did excellent.

Nick Perugini Says:

I think Scotty made a lot little girls happy this week with his winning of American Idol. That smooth southern draw won the hearts of the majority of America and I can honestly say I am one of those hearts. Good for Scotty, he is just getting started and has yet to peak out in the music industry. This blogging experience has been a great time and hopefully I will continue this when I am off to college next year.
