So yesterday and this afternoon I never got around to posting my predictions and opinions on last night’s American Idol.
Opinions:
Marque was the only good male singer, but I don’t think he was good enough. Erskine and especially that guy Matthew just didn’t make the grade. In fact, when I saw that Matthew made it into the final 32 I was shocked because I was NOT impressed with him in the earlier episodes.
All of the women were fabulous and it’s a shame that only two get to move to the next round. It seems a given that Fantasia will make it in – if only because Simon liked her so much. As for me, I felt she bounced too much. She did this little triple-bob all during her song that got REALLY annoying and I’m sure the cameraman was cursing her name the whole time. So, if she makes it to the next round, I shall call her FantaBounce.
So now we have the remaining four women. Diana was good – but once Katie sang I felt the competition was over. Katie is the one that sang the jazz song. She did an outstanding job. If she makes it, I shall call her JazzGirl. But will she make it? Sure, Ashley looked like a rodeo reject, but she did a fabulous version of a gorgeous Patsy Cline song. Her talent was obvious. I thought Jennifer’s rendition of “Imagine” was decent – but I agree that her voice is “better” than the performance she gave last night.
Who I think will go forward: Fantasia and Diana (with Matthew in third)
Who I think SHOULD go forward: JazzGirl and Ashley
In other news: Make sure you tune in to “Angel” tonight at 9 p.m. and watch the show officially jump the shark as Angel battles Nazis in WWII while Spike is held hostage on a German sub. Ridiculous.
I agree I hated the Fantasia bounce!
I just watched her bounce again tonight. That’s too funny.
And your disdain for the JtS Angel amuses me as well. Heh.
JazzGirl should have gotten into the finals. Oh, well. She had better make it in the wild card round. I’m expecting much out of the next eight contestants. They should have split the first group up instead of putting all the talent into oen group. What’s an American Idol viewer to do?
Hey, who knows how talented the people are in the other groups. And I agree about JazzGirl.
On Angel: Oh no no no! The true Jump the Shark moment will be this week when Angel becomes a cast member of Crank Yankers. Yes, a sure sign that the show is being canceled and the writers don’t give a crap: Make the hero a puppet.
FANTAISA, FANTASIA IS IS THE BEST!!!! SHE IS WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY BETTER THAN SNELVILLE GURL. DO U KNOW MUSIC WHEN U HEAR IT? THAN U WOULD LIKE FANTASIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DIANA IS 100 times better than fantasia!!!!!! fantasia needs to tone down because she gets on my nerves!!
