American Idol Season 8

Because she's current

In other words, she can't sing, but they can fix that up when they mix her cd. The important thing is she has a pretty face, a quirky look, and an ugly tattoo all down her arm.

She's a marketers dream.

Thanks for the update!! Stupid FOX...they can extend the show time...grrrr!

I am sooo happy Anoop got in! I love him!

Did anyone else get the feeling that last night was just a dog and pony show and the the "cast" (Simon's word) had already been chosen beforehand?

It just didn't seem to be how well or bad someone sang... being the "package" was so much more important. Yet, at other times you will hear Simon say "This is a singing competition."

I do think Jasmine is adorable, but she was a far cry from Top 12 material with all of the other contestants this season. Same for Meghan.

100% agree - while I think both of the guys deserved to get through, I really don't think Megan did. Jasmine was okay, but neither was as good or entainting as Anoop or Matt.

Oh, wait...SHE made the top 12 (or rather, 13)???

I TiVoed the show and just now have time to watch it....I did NOT like her performance! It sounded like she was singing through her nose....and I couldn't believe the judges all sang her praises like they did!!


I think Ann Marie and Nick/Norman should have been brought back for the Wild Card round.
