I agree! But I am worried that the whole "Influenza B, trip to the hospital" discussion is going to win her sympathy votes. And, I am sorry, but that tattoo is really distracting for me...What is the story on that?

She is truly beautiful, though - definitely Cover Girl material! But does Cover Girl do tattoos???

Exactly what I was thinking.

And I don't know if this has been mentioned before... but does anyone else notice this kind of hip swiveling thing she does when she sings? It's really weird. She just needs to stand still when singing slower songs.

Adam's performance was hideous. As someone else said, I felt like I was watching a drag act. But as bad as his was, I thought Megan's was worse. She kinda sings like she's half burping-half singing.

She's the VFTW contestant right now. She's not going anywhere, IMO.

I would like to say that NO ONE should EVER be allowed to do a Johnny Cash or Patsy Cline song on AI --EVER...

I am SO THANKFUL that no contestant was stupid enough to sing George Jones' He Stopped Loving Her Today. THAT, my friends, would have had me hurling objects and curse words at my tv... It makes me sick that they even gave it as an OPTION...

Also, anyone notice that Scott blabbed that the producers had given his top picks to other people the past few weeks???

Definitely noticed that.

What I found interesting with him... a little while back, someone here said that they didn't think Simon would be willing to tell Scott what he really thinks of his singing, simply because he's blind. However, correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that after Simon said that Scott had made a poor song choice, Paula said to him, "That's disrespectful."

I didn't think this was as bad as previous country weeks. I liked Adam, Danny, Anoop, Kris, Michael, and even Allison was alright. I did not care for Scott or Lil, and I thought Alexis and Adam were terrible.

Apparently I drank the "kool-aid" because I am actually liking Megan. I hate the little sway/dance she does when she sings, but she's sounding very blues-y...like a big band type singer. Did anyone else think the stylists made her look like Reese Witherspoon last night?

I can't stand Megan's "dance" moves. I don't know if she does them out of nerves or if she thinks they actually look good (I hope that's not the case), but they definitely don't. Adam is my least favorite contestant, but she's a close second.

I also heard Scott's comments about losing his song choices in "hat picks." Can an AI guru explain that to me..?
