Tiffany aka ( @TVProducerLady ) and I are back, back again. Yes, we’re back, tell a friend. (Tiffany is a huge Eminem fan, so that was a little shout-out to her man.) We’re back to discuss the top three in this season’s American Idol. We declare Jessica, Joshua, and Phillip as the best final three in American Idol history. And we don’t just declare it without backup. We go through every season’s top three and remind you how unmemorable these top […]

American Idol Season 11 – And Then There Were 4
I wasn’t able to catch last week’s show live as I was out of town. And that’s probably a good thing. America, you done did it now. How can Hollie Cavanagh be on a show that Skylar Laine is not? Unbelievable. If Hollie lasts longer than Jessica Sanchez, I just might, well, I just might. I recapped the season and the eliminations thus far and gave my prediction for the winner earlier this week. And now, we’re down to four. The first theme tonight is songs about California and the second is songs they wish they […]
American Idol Season 11 – Where We Stand
We’re down to the final four on “American Idol.” Here’s a recap of how we got there.
American Idol Season 11 – And Then There Were 6
I think most were surprised when Colton Dixon was eliminated last week. He seemed to be a shoe-in for the top 5 at the very least, but after having an off-night, America sent him home. I wasn’t terribly appalled. If this show were fair, there’s no way that he’d leave it before Hollie Cavanagh, but everyone else still has a reason to be here. If I liked super emo artists, maybe I’d have pulled for him more, but I don’t, […]
American Idol Season 11 – And Then There Were 7 … Again
America, somebody done told you wrong. If you’re a Colton fan, I get it. If you’re a Skylar fan, I get it. Phillip? Sure. Joshua? Yes. Maybe there’s an argument for Elise somewhere. But With Hollie Cavanagh still on this show, there’s no way that Jessica Sanchez should get the least amount of votes, no matter what. Okay, I could see it if after her performance last week that she got on stage with the Tupac hologram and flipped everyone […]
American Idol Season 11 – And Then There Were 7
My San Jose homeboy Deandre is no longer on this show. So I won’t have that hometown rooting interest anymore. But it doesn’t matter. I didn’t think he was performing at the level he needed to as with that falsetto, he was really a one-trick pony. When DeBarge is right up your alley and you don’t kill that DeBarge song, I’m not sure what other songs are there for you to kill. Tonight, joining me blogging the show is none […]
American Idol Season 11 – And Then There Were 8
American Idol’s most entertaining man, Heejun Han is now gone. Even thought the judges lauded his version of Song For You, it was apparent that his vocals just weren’t up to par with the rest of the folks. (I have a friend named Hea Jin and I would love to reenact David Letterman’s Uma/Oprah bit from the Oscars several years ago, with her and Heejun. Heejun … Hea Jin. Okay, that original bit died, but that idea did run through […]
American Idol Season 11 – And Then There Were 9
Earlier this week, my friend Tiffany ( @TVProducerLady ) and I discussed the show so far on the latest episode of Blerd Radio . Tonight, the contestants are going to be singing songs performed by their idols. Stevie Nicks is mentoring them with Jimmy Iovine. Colton Dixon is singing Everything from Lifehouse. Stevie told him to never cut his hair. She likes the muskrat look? It’s a worship song and he put on the kind of performance that works. There wasn’t many highs […]
Blerd Radio – American Idol Live And In Color
It’s been a fairly eventful first three episodes of the American Idol finals of season 11. Just three weeks in and we already have four eliminations and the season is just about to start heating up. Joining me this time, just like last time, is my homie from the hood, Tiffany, who you all can follow on Twitter at @TVProducerLady . Tiffany was live at Wednesday’s performance show so she has all the skinny on how it went down live. I […]
American Idol Season 11 – And Then There Were 10
With Jermaine Jones and Shannon Magrane leaving the show last week, we’re down to 10. And what a crappy 10 it’s been so far overall. The first two weeks of the American Idol finals have been wildly disappointing. The performances haven’t been all that good and the song choices have been befuddling at times. I hope it gets better this week as the crew is performing the songbook of one William Joel, who you know better as Billy Joel. Jenny […]
American Idol Season 11 – And Then There Were 12
Last week, sweet-singing Jeremy Rosado, was eliminated. He didn’t even last long enough for the nickname I gave him to stick around, which was Big Pun. But that’s not even newsworthy compared to the bomb TMZ dropped yesterday. Jermaine Jones will be kicked off “American Idol” Wednesday night, after producers learned he concealed the fact that he was arrested twice last year and has outstanding warrants … TMZ has learned. We’ll see how they handle it tonight, but it’s definitely big news. […]
American Idol Season 11 – And Then There Were 13
If you’re the type of person who watches American Idol once the actual competition gets down to the nitty gritty and doesn’t follow the show through the auditions and Hollywood rounds, you are in luck. My friend Tiffany ( @TVProducerLady ) and I recorded a podcast that summed up a lot of what you missed. And we posted it Monday, so go take a listen . I generally don’t like the long two-hour shows. Blogging them is like a marathon, but hey, this isn’t Burger King and I can’t have it […]
