Ok... so he was cute... but he ain't no Clay. (So I'm biased... sue me!)
But I think Anthony is the dork I will be rooting for this year. His voice is ok... better than most and he's a cutie. Knowing 19E, they'll make him invest in contacts... even though I thought the glasses were good.
ETA: Ooook, after reading TWoP about last night, people have been dubbing him Clay Potter... which is the funniest thing I've ever heard. (i.e. Clay Aiken 3.0 + Harry Potter gone blond = Antoley (Anthony) Federov.)
Moving on...
Briana was kick ass. I don't know where she would fit in on country night, but I could see her becoming an Amy Lee. I hope that's a good thing.
Sara Sue... the funny thing is that spoilers were showing her going through to Hollywood. There was a picture of her with a yellow "on to Hollywood" paper. Conspiracy? But I loved her attitude about the whole thing. I think if she had chosen a different song, she would have gotten through. But they pegged her as being Broadway (looks aside.)
Didn't dig Farmer boy... I dunno... maybe it was the orange skin and overalls. And he sounded nervous.
In Orlando... WTF was up with the "White Boys" girl? She was definitely a theater girl. Same goes for dancer boi... I didn't think he was that fab either. Good performers... bad singers.
LL was a nice judge too. Honest and the hugs were cool too. But the Jackson sister group hug was set up... that was just over the top cheesy.
SF tomorrow! WOO HOO. Apparently the Other "I'm an individual" twin comes to SF. His brother went back to Vegas and made it.
And two guys that were on last year apparently are back in SF. Watch for Rodrigo and Donnie.
