American Idol Season 8 - Page 19

With Megan the VFTW.com person, she is probably getting enough votes to keep her in, ala Sanjaya and Chicken Little. But, when the numbers are smaller and the vote is spread between fewer contestants, she'll be out.

Now, Scott on the other hand.... I'm sure that besides the differently abled bloc of votes he's getting, there are tons of little old ladies who are thinking, "Oh what a cute little blind boy with those golden curls!"

He may be in for a LOOOOONG time! Frankly, I was surprised he was even in the bottom 3.

But, Michael needed to go. He's a good guy, but clearly not the American Idol. He's had a great time, met some amazing people and had an incredible experience - now, time to go back to the oil patch. Maybe he can pick up a few gigs singing at the local honkey tonk!

Yeah. Sigh, my mom is one of them.

LOL! Next week, confiscate Mom's phone until voting's over, Blondie!

ATTENTION, BLONDIE! Quick! Go take your mother's phone away!!

(at least someone got on his hair, finally --- cut over the ears like that, he's got a little Joey-from-New-Kids thing going on)

Ha!ha! If only I could. And I agree on the haircut... long overdue.

Maybe his stylist could be assigned to Allison next week? Holy crap- whatever stylist conjured that mess up needs to be fired! What the hell was she wearing??? I have seen Halloween costumes better than that.

Meghan= painful. VFTW definitely has the right contestant.

I am kind of digging the various wigs that Lil sports each week!

Was disapointed with Anoop.

nittanyalum · #**276** 03-31-2009, 09:07 PM

Ditto on Anoop.

Ditto on Megan (and she's getting WAY too full of herself)

Felt bad for Matt, that was just a bad song choice.

LOVED LOVED LOVED Lil, I thought she blew that song out.

ETA: oh, and ditto on Alyson, but I've never been fond of her or her strangely colored hair

ComradesTrue · #**277** 03-31-2009, 09:14 PM

Loved the moment with Lil's girl and Randy. So sweet!

Adam can definitely sing but he just annoys me to no end. Why are we even having the season when apparantly the judges have ordained him the winner already? "Mick Jagger, Steven Tyler and Adam Lambert?" Um, slow down Paula. Tap that brake.

He also just seems so smug.

nittanyalum · #**278** 03-31-2009, 09:19 PM

The shot of Lil's daughter gripping the back of Randy's collar -- aw! Tear!

I've always been just on the fence about Adam, never loved him but didn't hate him --- I have to admit, though, I'm softening up toward him. As some others are weakening, I'm liking his strong performances more. But he's not my fave.

Oo, Kris is starting, I do like this guy....

LeslieAGD · #**279** 03-31-2009, 09:20 PM

Seriously, these are the songs they are picking?!? Ugh, boring.

PeppyGPhiB · #**280** 04-01-2009, 01:04 AM

Kris was the only one I loved tonight.

AlphaXi_Husky · #**281** 04-01-2009, 01:07 AM

I'm not a big Kris fan - he's good, but not my fave. I really like Danny, and Allison, though I didn't like her performance (or outfit) tonight. And Anoop...my friend...you may be going home after that performance. Just not good.

ASTalumna06 · #**282** 04-01-2009, 01:15 AM

Please send Megan home. What the hell was she doing with her hands? And I agree with an earlier poster.. she sounds smug. And when she was talking afterward, her voice sounded whiney. I just don't like her.

And Kara... I'm glad you actually counted your words correctly tonight. But I think you meant to say Studio 54.. not Studio 57.

gee_ess · #**283** 04-01-2009, 08:49 AM

Paula is the one I wish would go home! She is getting more and more crazy each week. I don't know how the other members of the panel keep a straight face when she talks. Last night it felt like someone had written her critiques for her and she was trying to recite them for each contestant. Yikes!

I am rooting for Matt. He seems to have taken the position of underdog lately - just hasn't done well with song choice. But I really like him and think he is very talented.

Did anyone else think it was funny when an audience member yelled out, "Broken record" to Kara when she started second guessing song choices...again. She does seem to always second guess these people who are under much pressure to pick the best song. To come along and rattle off 4 or 5 alternatives (kind of comes across smug imo) while they stand there dying must get hard every week. But, she does give good criticisms for the most part.

I voted for Anoop, Alyson, and Kris last night (Kris got the most votes from me). I just thought his performance was great and he seems like a genuinely nice guy, and is not getting a big head like I think some of the other contestants are (ahem MEGAN). I thought Danny's performance was good too.

I have to agree with nittanyalum that Adam was definitely not my favorite contestant, but he's growing on me every week (post Johnny Cash butchering). I think he has a lot of talent and I'm really glad he's toned down the eye makeup and bad hair.

Megan is just awful. That song was so boring, her voice is so reedy (the only word I can think of to describe it), and she's definitely getting by on her looks. I agree with previous posters about her smug comments "well I think my fans will like it." KICK HER OFF!!

srmom · #**285** 04-01-2009, 05:22 PM

Allison looked like an Oompa Loompa in that ugly purple triangle dress! If you changed her hair from that hideous shocking red to green, she could have been in the movie

Adam - Mick Jagger, Steven Tyler - Uhhh no. But, I do like him and think he might have a future.

Megan is hilariously bad, and she's starting to get the "Chicken Little" attitude with the judges - "Honey, the VFTW votes will only take you so far, and your "fans" (?) are only voting for you because you are the designated WORST (hate to tell you, that is not a compliment

)"

Scott, thank you for getting a hair cut, but I still don't like your singing...

Anoop - WHAT HAPPENED? Not Good, and sassy to the judges - don't go that route!!

Matt - totally wrong choice of song, I'm afraid for him tonight!!
