American Idol Season 10 – And Then There Were Four
Well, I guess I have to eat a bit of crow. I called out Haley last week for being a fake and she went out and had the best week of her young American Idol life. Haley was a favorite of mine early in the Hollywood week, but it seemed that she was worse once she made the show. She definitely tried to sexy it up a bit when it looked like she was a goner and that was smart. […]
American Idol Season 10 – And Then There Were 5
Casey Abrams was kicked out for the second time this season and he gave it his all. You have to give it up for a guy who continually sang songs he knew weren’t recognizable and would probably hurt him in the end. Either that, or shake your head at the silliness for continuing to test that audience. Before we get to the hotlist, I finally figured out who it is that Haley reminds me of when she sings in that […]
American Idol Season 10 – And Then There Were 6
If you want to get right down to it, no matter what Stefano did all season long, he had to get eliminated because of that horrendous wannabe Chippendale’s dancing last week right? Now, let’s get to something more important. Important as in, my wife, Kara DioGuardi. Miss Kara was in the news today because of a Rolling Stone article that quoted parts of her new book, A Helluva High Note, where she went HAM on Simon and the Idol process. She says this […]
American Idol Season 10 – And Then There Were 7
I’m going to miss Paul, the drunken sailor. Not a lot, but I’ll miss him. Let’s get right to the hotlist. Hotlist 1. Lauren Alaina – To me, she’s the leader in the clubhouse. 2. Jacob Lusk – Jacob needs to stay consistent. He obviously has an audience. 3. Scotty McCreery – Did he peak too soon? 4. James Durbin – James needs to kill it one of these upcoming weeks. 5. Casey Abrams – His fans saved him last […]
American Idol Season 10 – And Then There Were 8
Pia, Pia, Pia. There’s a considerable amount of difference in what people think Pia’s American Idol legacy was supposed to be. Most of the women thought she was overrated and never had a chance to win (because you know, all women are catty). Most of the men thought she was a top three contender (because you know, all men thought she was hot). I was right in the middle. I thought she had the look and if she was a […]
American Idol Season 10 – And Then There Were 9
It took us a couple weeks, but there were finally some cuts. While Naimia and Thia weren’t going to win the whole shebang, it was still a little sad to see them go. Naima was probably the most creative of the contestants and it just shows that while the judges want you to make things your own and branch out and go left, the voters don’t always like it. As for Thia, she’s probably a year or two too young […]
American Idol Season 10 – And Then There Were 11 (Again)
It took them three whole weeks to use the save. When Casey was on the chopping block, the judges decided that he was too good to let go this early in the season. I sort of agree. But I disagree with using the save this early because there is going to come a time when they’ll need to save Jacob or Pia. I think we’re about three weeks from the week when all the 18-year old girls simply turn on […]
American Idol Season 10 – And Then There Were 11
I can sure pick the bottom three, but when it comes to figuring out who goes home, I’m off. Even last week, I called Karen being in the bottom three, but never thought that the wannabe J. Lo would’ve been gone so quickly. I thought she had a few weeks left in her. But the reality is that she was a one-trick pony. She tried very hard to mimic her favorite artists (J-Lo included), but it got tired, especially when her mimics […]
American Idol Season 10 – And Then There Were 12
Poor Ashthon. Poor, poor Ashthon. The girl who looked like she could’ve been the third wheel in a new wave Destiny’s Child is no longer with us on Idol. But that leaves the top 12, which is where we should’ve been in week one. I have a feeling we’re going to get a double elimination night one of these upcoming weeks. When it happens, someone’s going to scream “OoWee” like Anoop Desai . Before we get started, here’s the first hotlist of […]
American Idol Season 10 – And Then There Were 13
In the 10th season of American Idol, several changes were made, some which were more noteworthy than others. Because of the loss of Simon Cowell, they decided to get rid of everyone else including the love of my life, Miss Kara DioGuardi, except for one Randall Jackson. Signing Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler to judges’ table, they created a lot of buzz, but people were skeptical as to how entertaining they would be in Simon’s absense. After last week, I’ll […]
