Jordan is too big to be an American Idol. She needs to diet. I think she would kick the chit of Peter Petrelli.

The show last night was completely geared to have Jordin win. :rolleyes: AI is really becoming boring. These contestants have no personality and do nothing for me. *shrugs* Maybe next year? I hope so or I'll have to find something else to watch.

Is it me or did Bette do a really shitty job with one of her most favorite songs? And wow, the plastic surgery she must have had. The skin on her face is SO tight.

LMAO at Jerry Springer being there - they cut to him when she finished (think it was him) and he was all teared up.

I just saw that and it made me laugh....AI sucked for me this season also...:(

A lot of people have been dismayed. But I guess since we're all still watching it.... lol


Kelly Clarkson, I love you, but please put on more clothes. Though I am impressed with how much she toned up in a few weeks time.

Yet another commercial break and all I can think is:

Joe Perry? Why????

Eh, I think Blake should have won...I'd be more adpt to keep him on the radio than Jordin. He's just more unique. Jordin sounds similar to all the other "girl" artists out there.

This season was kinda a dud.

With all the songwriting talent they can pull from, why is the "winning" song always such total, utter, dentist office elevator crap?

Because America wants to hear "A Moment Like This Is My Now Inside Your Heaven" of course! :eek:

I'm so very happy that Jordin won. I personally think that she is an amazing singer! And she has such a great talent at a very young age. I think she will do pretty well. I'm still shocked that Blake made it to the finals. C'mon, let's face it...he just beatboxed his way to the top.

Some of us like the beatboxing.

I liked him because he wasn't your typical AI contestant and he stepped out of the whole "what AIs should sound like" stereotype. If this season was filled with a bunch of Jordins and Melindas I probably wouldn't have watched it at all.

Just pray that Jordin doesn't end up in the AI Graveyard. Um, I mean Broadway. There are so many artists out there who sound just like her and are as talented as she as and I don't really see her out there for too long. Two hit songs on the Adult Contemporary radio station, and that's it.

Blake, I hope you sell more records than all AIs combined!

YEAH!!!!!!


Arizona can now be in the news for having an American Idol winner and not because we put someone to death yesterday :rolleyes:

Yawn.

If they continue with American Idol, I will stay bored until a rocker wins.

Still a Gina fan. Not a fan of her new hair tho. Still a fan of Chris Sligh too.

I had no idea until you just told us! :o

I'm glad that Jordin won only because now Blake won't be screwed in 19E contract hell as much as Jordin!

Me too. Blake has his own sound, style and is very adept at arranging the music. I think he'd have felt so constrained by the 19E contract. Whereas Jordin, being so young, can use the guidance and stuff, you know?

And HI! SEE YOU TONIGHT!

I am almost positive Blake purposely threw the competition Tues night because he didn't want to get stuck with the contract. At least that's my theory, but I didn't think he sounded as good as he normally did or picked the best song choices. What do y'all want to bet that Jordin is now going to record the songs that Kelly Clarkson refused to record when Clive Davis tried to scrap her album this month and get her to record different stuff.

Did anyone else see Guarini in the audience? It's nice to know he's still alive.

HI!

I only switched back and forth briefly b/c I was watching lost, but right as AI was going to commercial once, I saw Greenday. Please tell me they did not perform on AI?!? What is the world coming to...:(

I know exactly what you mean. At first I said, "Yeah!" cuz I love Green Day, but then I thought, "Nooooooooo! Green Day, how could you sell out like that?!" Green Day is supposed to be anti-establishment, and it doesn't get much more "established" that American Idol!

They were promoting the Darfur tribute album that is coming out.

I finally got around to watching it on my DVR today, and what I was thinking was, "Why on Earth would Joe Perry agree to perform with SANJAYA????"

Still haven't figured it out myself.

Yup, I agree....I am a fan of Daughtry's and I was rooting for Gina the whole season..... hopefully someday they'll get it "right!"

It was kind of a snoozer of a season, although I did like Blake, and was glad he was in the finals. I can't wait to see his album! :cool:

This girl needs to be on idol
