if we're thinking of the same big girl, she made it through. They didn't show her sing, but they did show her making it through.

Glad opera girl was gone, and farmer boy, and hawk my wedding ring woman.

The girl who said she'd make Simon take her to the prom is SO F'IN ANNOYING! They were making fun of her SO bad on the radio this morning

I was talking about the big girl that was the sister -- the one I had a question about earlier. She & her sister were shown on a whole clip "arguing" about which was the next Idol. Then they both sang and suck-ed. The first sister got rejected, so when the 2nd went in, she was all in pieces and got rejected also.

But then when they showed the "best moms" clip, the first one was there with a yellow paper. I didn't see her last night.

On my radio, they were making fun of Regina (the wedding ring woman) -- they would play the news and then one of the TJ's (?)(talk radio - not music) would break in and say "Hey John - I would rather you be crappy and not have anyone expect anything of you" -- it was pretty funny 'cuz they kept doing it to people.

Yeah, that girl...isn't she Mikahla?...anyway, they were talking isht about her on TWOP too.

I am still with my girl Nadia, and the youth minister. Also really liked Mario, because I can see him having a career from this.

(edited for the PS):

What about Angel, the DST, and what about Ozzie Smith's son?

I always get a kick out of the group performances, for some reason.

I only saw half of it so someone's gotta fill me in on the first half.

The last half... the "drama" was staged. Rediculous. And NONE of the boys from that group should have made it through. I don't know why Tim did. I thought he was equally as bad as the 2nd half of the twin set there.

And then they send the last group through!!! WTF they forgot their flippin words.

I did miss the drama between fishnet girl and her group. Also missed Anthony and Lindsey and Carrie and David... but I saw them in next week's clip so I'm assuming they are good to go.

Anyone know who Jennifer Todd is? Picture? Anything? I missed her audition and they aren't really focusing much on her in this round. I've been hearing a lot of stuff about her... good stuff.

The whole staged incident was too stupid. And the last group who they let all of them through even though they forgot the words...WHATEVER!!

Watching fishnet girl get cut was the highlight of the evening...you didn't miss much more than that chideltjen!

I didn't get to see it this week, but I'm glad you mentioned Travis Tucker...I actually grew up with him, we went to church together, and he is the nicest guy in the entire world, and incredibly talented...although sometimes its hard to tell those things by watching television. I watched his audition in DC and was so happy for him that he made it, and so I'm glad that someone else thinks he has a chance. :)

Sweet... I missed his initial audition but I saw him a couple nights ago. Apparently he has nice abs. ;) Like I said, 19E seems to be looking for a male contender, so we could probably see him later in the competition.

That song was really tough and they were the only ones that sang it. I think the judges gave them a second chance because they said "hey, we f---ed up!" instead of crying about not getting a good night sleep.

wasn't this the group who didn't really do anything to prep the night before and instead waited until the morning of?

they got a nice night's sleep probably.

Of course, the judges don't know that they blew it off the night before, but I can't have much sympathy for them.

SHE'S GONE!!!
 

HIP HIP HOORAY!!! The "alvin & the chipmunks" rapper is G-O-N-E!
I am SOOO excited :D :D :D

Although I am quite :( at them ditching the youth minister, getting rid of Shunta the drag queen was absolutely :D :D :D

Mario is the next AI - that's not my choice (although I like him), but he has stood out so much. Scott is my sweetheart (and I think a lot of other people feel that way too). Also, the big hair girl (Nadia - is that it?) I keep calling her Sophia b/c of BOS2.

I am SO glad that I had hubby tape it while I was in a meeting. It is so much more tolerable with that fast-forward button!!

This season is already loads better than last season.

Except for Sean McNeill, all the people I really like got through. I *heart* Anwar, and not just because he looks like Senusret's twin. :D Constantine is growing on me too.

Heh, I'm not watching anymore, but if anyone saw Warren Nolan, he went to my high school. Apparently he made the final 30 or so....

Re: SHE'S GONE!!!
 

I missed her performances prior to this. Boy am I glad she is gone. That voice would have gotten annoying REALLY fast.

Saddness for Sean, because I thought he was good. But everyone else that went, I probably won't miss much.

Of course there are people that did go through, and they featured, that aren't that great. So I'm hoping for the final cut.

I've picked out the top 6 guys for sure, just by the amounts of pimping. The girls I'm not so sure about, except a few. But here we go:

Guys: Mario [chosen one, especially after the mother story], Anthony [let's see how long the trach story lasts], Constantine [the "rock star," even tho he's a theater boi], Anwar [because he's just fab!], Scott [because this boy has issues and will make things interesting] and hell, I'll throw in Travis for good measure.

Gals: Carrie [though the "clueless" act is getting old fast], Lindsey [I'm rooting for her, even though she could pull a Julia Demato], Jaclyn [who sounds nothing like Joss Stone, but they keep saying she is the youngest candidate etc and is probably easily disposible for the bottom of the 12], Mikahlah [because Simon can't take his eyes off her... also see msg for Scott], Vonzell [they need a "diva" but she won't win], and fill in the blank for the last gal. Cuz I can insert Janay or Nadia, for about the same reasons. Or maybe the Vegas chick with the dark hair.

Not saying this is based on talent per se, just by looking at patterns and such from past shows, there seems to be a formula for a top 12. But I think Mario is IT.

Im excited that Constantine made it. hes good. unique.

Totally agree on Mario. Thank GOD that chipmunk girl is gone. I wish that young perky girl would've been gone. She annoys me. I like the country girl...Carrie maybe. It'll be interesting to see who makes it through now. I'm torn on Constantine...we'll see. The blonde guy, with the trach, he's from my area, so I gotta cheer for him. Nobody's really grabbed me yet but Mario.
