Okay, pretty good show this week. Loved, loved, loved the theme.
Best part of this week were the shockers... the average did great, the great did awful.. and shocker of all- Paula made sense! Who took our drunk Paula and replaced her with someone coherent?
Now, on to the contestants:
Top Marks from me for Chikeze (!), David Rocker, and Brooke. Chikeze, who knew??? David Rocker, "brought it" again! And for Brooke- I do really like Brooke's soulful voice, but fear what will happen when she has to abandon her Carly Simon inspired song file. Disco week? Eek!
Carly also had a stellar performance, but I worry that there is a Daughtry-esqe elimination shocker coming for her at some point. Seeing as that a large majority of the voters are the 12-18 set, and I don't see that as her audience... hmmmm.... I worry that around week 6 we may see a much-too-early departure for her.
I still do not get the Jason Castro kid. Just. Don't. Get. Him.
Amanda Overmeyer- fire your hairdresser. Immediately. I can't hear a single note you sing because I am so disturbed by your tresses.
David Hernandez and Kristy Lee... well, there just are no words. I am still so perplexed by both attempts, and just can not form complete thoughts at the moment. Bad. Very Bad. Nuff Said.
Which brings us to Little David Cupcake. Simon was right. It was a colossal mess. Forgetting words? Unforgiveable. Pitchy? Say it ain't so! And the performance... very wedding singer. But, Cupcake will bounce back, and this was likely a good wake up call for him. But... like Brooke, it sets up some worrisome theme weeks ahead.
Prediction for bottom 3: David Hernandez, Ramiele and Kristy Lee. Kristy Lee gets the axe.
