Has anyone been watching? America voted and American Idol picked the Top 12...LOL. Here they are...
1. Mandisa - the sistah from TN, graduate of Fisk University. She has a soulful sound and rocks the house with her powerhouse voice everytime. She's the one who let Simon have it in a nice way when he made reference to her weight.
2. Paris - the teen that has a unique sound for such a youngster who is from MN or GA...not quite sure. I've heard her make reference to both states. She's the granddaughter of Ann Nesby from Sounds of Blackness.
3. Lisa - The 16 year old that people say reminds them of Aaliyah. I don't see or hear it. She's has an ok voice but not one of my favorites.
4. Melissa - Not quite sure if she knows her place. It was a shocker for some that she wasn't sent home. She has a good voice but has been known for picking the wrong songs. She's forgettable.
5. Katharine - Another one with a great voice. She can do runs so she's alright with me.
6. Kellie - The TRUE southern belle. Some say she's another Carrie Underwood, but Simon said he prefers her over Carrie. She's portrayed herself as a dumb blonde to some and just a pure country girl to others. She has a decent voice when she's singing country music.
7. Elliot - One of my favorites who has an awesome voice with a soulful sound. The boy is bad...just flawless!!!!!
8. Ace - Now this is the eye candy that is supposedly dating Essence Atkins of Half and Half. He has a great falsetto and actually sounded good singing Michael Jackson's "Butterflies". He is a pretty white boy. Yahooo!
9. Chris - The bald rocker, husband and father of 2 who can actually sing. During the first week of the Top 24 he performed "Wanted Dead or Alive"...they LOVE him.
10. Taylor - He's the one with the salt and pepper hair who has a Michael McDonald sound and moves like Ray Charles. He has lots of energy and obviously loves music and entertaining.
11. Bucky - He's the southern gentleman...in my best country voice "Thank ya very much"...he's just so darned mannerable. He has a unique voice, can hold a note...so far I've only heard him sing country songs....all of which were actually good.
12. Kevin - My mama said if you don't have anything nice to say about someone, don't say it....so..........
There you have it, AI's Top 12 because I believe America wanted Gedeon, the brother from Memphis. He went out with style and class and sang the heck out that song on his exit. So, needless to say, there are no brothers in the Top 12 this year which means what????? You figured it out...it's the year for a white male to win.
