American Idol 4

[shadokat]

I don't think she's going...she was the WORST of those two. Could've been anyone's paper. Was anyone else laughing hysterically at the other twin showing up in San Fran and getting totally blown out of the water? Man, that was classic...

Cleveland

Sara: Loved her. He he. Loved her voice. I don't think the song she sung (I could have danced all night) was appropriate for the competition though. I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED her comment "I don't think you have to be a barbie". LOL. GO HER!!!!!!!! I wanted her to make it just for that comment.

Scott: Wow he was actually pretty good. He made me realize that I love LL as a guest judge. Although I have to be honest, he didn't have "the look" but he had a great voice.

Jennifer: OMG what was that about!!!!?????!!!!! ADPiShannan, girl I'm sooooooo sorry that she came from Brecksville.

The Jackson Sisters: Not good at all.

Briana: Well loved her automatically because of the name (although mine is spelled with two "n's"). Plus, I have NEVER heard anyone sing that high and actually sound amazing and I've been singing since I was in fifth grade. I've heard people screech to those notes but never obviously sound decent. Plus, I loved her hair and clothes. TOTAL INDIVIDUAL. I definately will be rooting her on in Hollywood.

I'm glad you posted this.

I was hoping to catch it but i was too late to see the Cleveland Tryouts on American Idol 4. It's nice to see someone from our area going to hollywood.

Okay - so this sounds really insensitive, but I don't know how else to ask it...

The really big girls from last night (the ones that were "arguing" back and forth about which was the next idol) -- they both got cut. Well tonight, when they were showing the "best moms" clip, the one girl (the first one that sang last night) was there with the yellow paper. I know that was her from last night - anyone else see it?

I saw that too! I was kinda confused!

So, the Freddy Mercury sounding guy last night? I thought he was horrible! And I thought he sounded like a bad impersonator? Why on earth did everyone like him so much?!?!?

I'm cracking up at the nicknames that TWoP has for the judges:

Cowell By Name, Foul By Nature
Paula Abdul: Better Living Through Chemistry (apparently TWoP thinks she's on all kinds of crazy drugs)
Randy Jackson: Life's a Journey. Bring a Thesaurus.

Anyone from Indiana?

Because I found this article interesting...

BTW, this was the picture I was talking about in my previous post. I just want to know if this paper is reliable.

I only caught half of last night and I'm RELIEVED that the auditions are over.

JP Molfetta is freaky... Simon's right, he's desperate. And the whole "I'm in the recording studio with my brother" segment was skeevy. Gave me the creeps for some reason.

Justin and his crazy stage mom: that CRACKED me up. I mean I'm sure his mom was real excited but it also seemed staged by 19E. But Justin's facial expressions were hilarious.

I liked the one girl with the cool shirt and the big hair... I think her name started with an M. But the song choice was good so hopefully she'll make it far.

And the bad: The dude with the shades that said he would bet Simon he'd get a deal within 6 months and have a #1 album. For $50k? Wow... talk about delusional. Same goes for the 16 year old who heard something completely different than what was said and then couldn't figure out why she didn't get picked. She had this look of utter confusion. Classic!

Yeah was that or what??!! Weird!!

The girl with the black net outfit was on the clip for next week crying her eyes out. I hope that means she is going home because she was just gross. And that mouth - ugh!! I'm like, please quit smacking your lips together. UGH!

I was so hysterical over the girl that said "Simon said I had more talent than anyone here" knowing that is NOT what he said -- okay, WTH was that?! I hope that all her friends are LTAO at her over that whole drama. I'll bet she pulled out the "they edited him saying that out so I would look bad" excuse. Kinda like the lame GC excuse of "my roomie logged on as me....really - I swear!"

The girl with the big hair (kinda a'la Sophia from BOS2) was absolutely, positively gorgeous! And she really could sing. I am in love with her, and the girl from the first week that was a single mom. Beautiful girls with great voices. I also love the guy from Tuesday(?) that said he was there to prove his dad wrong. Love him!

I also thought LL did a good job as a judge - he gave a lot of good feedback, and made them feel special for what they were doing. I liked that - not because I think that everyone needs to be touch-feely, but because he looked like he really meant it. He was my fav guest judge.

Someone give me the rundown on what happened with the other twin last night? I missed the show.

He auditioned, wasn't really that good, and Simon basically told him that there was "a hint of desperation about him." All the judges said no, and he was sent on his way very disappointed. He didn't curse this time, but I think he said something like, "I said if they cut me I would jump out the window, but that's not gonna happen."

I'm about as confused as you are. Because I know she got cut... I was just wondering if this newspaper is a gossip page or something. *shrugs*

Until next week...

[kddani]

that one boy twin that made it through (him and his brother were both really cocky... his brother auditioned again too and didn't make it, I forget their names)- if singing doesn't work out for him he can go get a spot on Growing Up Gotti....

[shadokat]

The Indiana chick was actually in the previews for tonight's show (Wednesday). I was like WTF, she was cut. But they may have invited her now that the single mom from Syracuse decided to go home to be with her son, even though she made it through. I know there are a lot of Fantasia fans out there, but I thought what this girl said was really classy for a single mom.

Also, nice to see the other malfetta is gone now too! HA!

[chideltjen]

I saw part of last night. I taped it and I need to finish the rest.

People I'm glad are gone: Farmer boi, "I pawned my wedding ring" girl, and Rich "Molesta." I thought the boys' voices were very weak and they probably wouldn't have made it anywhere. And Regina just kinda irked me. And there was some news article out there about her having a record. (Not a musical one though...)

The article is http://www.mariettatimes.com/news/st..._new04strt.asp

The good? Well I still think Idol is looking for a male. I don't understand how there are 3 "rocker" types there, because I don't think they will make it very far, at least 2 out of the 3 won't. Idol isn't a rock contest, I don't know what they would do with them.

That said, Mario Vasquez has a BIG chance. So does Travis Tucker, and we'll throw in Anthony "Harry Potter" for kicks. They are all nice looking guys with tolerable voices.

And tonight was the first time I heard Carrie Underwood (?). There has been a lot of buzz about her. She's okay. I still like the Lindsey girl from Louisiana.

Tonight... MORE DRAMA!!! *GASP* [/sarcasm]

So last night S-U-C-K-E-D!! That should have been a 2 hour episode so they could have at least shown us the people that got through or got cut that we saw in auditions.

I could not care less about watching the other group travel around Hollywood all day - and I think its BS that the ones that got cut day 1 had to go home without getting the tour on the 2nd day.

Anyway - I never saw "Freddy Mercury" or the she/he rapper thing person or the big girl... anyone know about any of these?

I already can't stand Ross -- too much like red from last year - ugh, no more crooners, please.

I really like the youth minister's voice - he sounded fantastic I thought, and he has a great voice.

Glad the psycho opera clown is gone - she deserved it for trying to sing that song...horrible - absolutely horrible (in the words of Simon of course).

Now she can go back to her regular job of scaring young children, and seeing how brown her teeth can really get.

(Yes, I am being a bitch today and I know it - chalk it up to hubby's complete disregard of the upcoming 2/14)
