American Idol 7

[PeppyGPhiB]

Don't you know that the American Idol does not have to be a good singer? They do, however, have to be cute to young females. This show is really a contest in marketing one's self, and singing is just one way to do it.

I won't be watching anymore this season. I actually stopped watching the show regularly back in the Taylor Hicks season. I was hanging in for this season because they had some interesting voices earlier, and I thought Carly dominated when she chose the right songs. With Carly being kicked off tonight, after giving one of the best performances last night, the show is now completely boring to me. David Cook's gutsyness is not enough to keep me tuned in through the mediocre others. David A. will win, even though he doesn't really have his own style. I feel another Ruben or Taylor comin' on.

ETA: Anyone notice that the only women that seem to go far in AI in recent seasons are ones that are likeable to young females? And I mean young white, conservative, "cute" females. Nice girls that don't have attitude. Otherwise it's cute boys that make the cut.

Apparantly cupcake's dad is a complete stage mom. Naomi Judd told the Today show that he was the worst stage parent ever after Star Search! They say he even withholds water from cupcake if he doesn't do well in rehearsals! Yikes!
