Rockingham and Albemarle, NC are small, but they are NOT that bad. McLeansville, where Chris is from, is equally small but he isn't walking around talking about CA LA MAAAARI and sweet tea

One of my friends cheered with her in high school and says that she's really a huge snob and that this is a total act for the show. I'm sure she can be a nice girl when she wants to, she's just playing this up too much. As a fellow NCer, I too am over it.

Oh she does great jazz (her audition song 2 was a Billie Holiday song), but I think if any other performer were hopping all over the stage like she did in her first top 24 performance, Simon would've called that person out as a karaoke singer! But Paris has the musical lineage, so she's their little darling.

Seriously... bring back House MD!!!

I think Will looks like Donnie Osmond.

Sure does sound like an act. My friend said she saw her carting around a Coach purse during Hollywood week. Unless AI is throwing cash at these kids already, I don't really see how that can happen... unless her waitressing job pays bank.

But yeah... her shtick annoys me too.

hijack
House returns this week... so show should only be an hour this time. But still 3 times this week.

I just got around to watching last week's epsiodes...thank God for TIVO. I really enjoyed Mandisa, Elliot and Taylor, and I thought Will was a lot better than I expected him to be. Everyone else was just meh.

I missed most of last week's episodes.

I cannot believe they kicked of my boy, sway!!

My top guy pick is Elliott and top girl is a tie between Mandisa and Katharine.

Paris- I HATE dresses with jeans, looks so stupid. Theme park song... even if she sings it well, it's a song that you always hear in theme park shows, cruise ships, etc. Meh.

Lisa- she looks a lot older with straight hair. Great voice. The girl can sing. The song was kinda boring, but i've been really bored with AI all around lately so who knows.

Melissa- someone give her some eye makeup remover.... her eyeshadow is always so dark. Decent song. Still the disconnect.

Kinnik- didn't start if off strong enough. Tough song to do. Hit a few bad notes. But it's hard not to like her. Ouch though, she just didn't hit some of those notes and her voice cracked. The cowgirl look doesn't do it for me, wardrobe-wise. The tempo seemed a tad bit slow, too, so that made it a bit worse.

Katherine- she's sort of a boring performer, her facial expression was the same for a lot of the song. Her hair was covering up most of her face. Fun song, sung it decently. She should be safe.

Ayla- surprised they got the rights to that song, it's so new. Tough song to sing, it's just really odd vocally. I think she did a pretty good job. WTF did they do to her hair?

Mandisa- Chaka was a good choice for her voice, if a little stereotypical. Horrible outfit. Someone please forward AI the memo that no one wears ponchos anymore (and IMO no one shold have ever worn them). She is a good entertainer and has so much personality. Glad to see a song that lets her belt it out.

Kellie- Uggghhhhhhhhhhhh. Her voice is not strong enough for this song. Started off terribly, got a little bit better. I think she's been getting by on her looks for awhile. The judges kiss her ass... she was terrible the whole part of the song. Gross at Simon calling her a minx.

Paris- I don't really think she sang that song well...

Lisa- good voice

Melissa- I think she did well... it could have been better though

Kinnik- I don't think she did well at all... I think she'll be going home

Katherine- I really liked the way she sang her song

Ayla- I didn't really like this song.... she's still one of my favs though

Mandisa- I think she sang really well.. ditto on the poncho comment that kddani made

Kellie- I don't really think she did that great this time around.. maybe the song choice just wasn't right for me?

This was the first episode I really sat down and paid attention to. I wasn't that impressed--the two who stick out in my mind is Katherine and the girl who wore the poncho. The last girl I couldn't stand at all. There was just something about her that repulsed me beyond belief.

KDAngel · #**190** 03-08-2006, 02:38 AM

Def not the best episode tonight by any means... I hope the boys bring it up a notch (or two or three) tomorrow...

Not to sound like a broken record, but if Simon is so fascinated by pretty girls with cute accents but small brains, he should definitely live here on a permanent basis. MINXES EVERYWHERE.

I think Kinnik and Melissa are going home.

I'm predicting the same thing too!

There's reports all over the TWoP AI message boards that Kellie isn't who she says she is. She claims that she has never sang in front of an audience before but they found pictures and articles about her competing in the Miss North Carolina pagaent. Her talent was singing. She was also in a North Carolina singing competition.
Also, the whole sheltered, poor girl schtick she uses is supposedly untrue as well.
I didn't like her to begin with so this only makes my opinions stronger.

Slight hijack -- Ayla is a pretty big story here in Boston. Her father is a prominent Republican politician, who may end up running for Lieutenant Governor here. Also, she is a very good basketball player; she received a basketball scholarship from Boston College, and she was the state's Gatorade Player of the Year.

She isn't one of my favorites. Can you post the links to the message boards?
