Totally agree with you! I think I described her elsewhere as having a Beauty Queen on Crack persona. Last night she was more Psycho Beauty Queen on Zanax. Subdued, yet still a little whacko.

But yes, she CAN sing! I predict that if she doesn't get voted through, the judges will pick her as a wild card because she will be "good tv."

I thought they were all horrible except Anoop and Danny....

WinniBug · #**109** 02-18-2009, 07:45 PM

I have to say that I'm on the Danny bandwagon!

I think Danny G is on the Taylor Hicks train... and it is not going to go far from the station post-idol...

I am a HUGE jackie fan... but i don't think she will get through this round...

I hated Taylor......I think Danny G can do a lot better than Taylor....he has a better voice!

Oh my God, no. Completely disagree. Taylor Hicks winning was a fluke. I don't know how it happened. Most ridiculous thing ever. Danny is VERY good, and everyone could see that weeks ago.

You don't think he's any better than THIS?...

I'm pleased with tonight's results. I thought two were very obvious calls. I thought the second seat was going to go to the other person...but I think that other person will be a contender for a wild card spot. (didn't want to name names for those that haven't seen it yet)

SapphireSphinx9 · #**114** 02-18-2009, 10:54 PM

First of all, thank you Leslie for not posting names (for those of us on PST time

)

I haven't watched AI in a few years... But since I got my DVR, I've been completely hooked on this show! I can't watch it live, because I will only listen to the first 15-20 seconds, and if someone isn't good, I just fast forward thru their song... I dont't know why, but it makes me embarrassed for them, when they don't sing well.

There were only 4 people that I watched their whole performance last night - Alexis Grace (the mom with pink hair), Anoop (my 2nd favorite), Titiana (who I actually can't stand, but think she did a good job last night), and Danny Gokey (my all time favorite since his 1st audition).

There are a couple other contestants, in other groups that I remember I liked, but no one really stood out to me, like Danny did. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he makes it thru!!

I was happy with one of the finalists, but there are two that didn't make it through that I think would have fared better in the top 12.

And Leslie -- I agree about the wild card. I think that person and one other contestant from tonight will be granted a wild card slot.

YW...didn't want to ruin it.

I wasn't paying attention at the end so I don't know if they announced who is singing next week, but VFTW had the list posted:
Nick Mitchell (Normund Gentle), Adam Lambert, Megan Corkrey, Kris Allen, Mishavonna Henson, Matt Breitzke, Kai Kalama, Jasmine Murray, Jesse Langseth, Matt Giraud, Allison Iraheta, and Jeanine Vailles

I'm looking forward to seeing Nick/Normund, Adam, Kai, and Matt Giraud. None of the girls stand out in my memory.

And singing for us in group 3 (by default):
Alex Wagner-Trugman, Nathaniel Marshall, Von Smith, Felicia Barton, Ju'Not Joyner, Arianna Afsar, Kristen McNamara, Jorge Nunez, Lil Rounds, Kendall Beard, Scott MacIntyre, and Taylor Vaifanua

In that group, I am excited to see Jorge, Arianna, and Lil.

*Fingers crossed for the people I like so far *

I'm definitely rooting for a lot more guys than gals this season, so the new system for the top 12 might be a huge benefit.

BetteDavisEyes · #**117** 02-19-2009, 01:33 AM

YES to Danny. The other two I'm not a fan of but I'll listen. Maybe they'll grow on me.

Haha to Tatiana for now but I so believe she'll be the wild card pick b/c they have to have a drama queen person on each season. She'll never get my vote.

nittanyalum · #**118** 02-19-2009, 02:44 AM

YayYayYay to tonight's 3, with the addendum that Anoop MUST come back for the wildcard round, then I'll be happy. Those 4 were my favorites after last night. I don't think they'll bring Tatiana back, that girl could seriously snap and be a danger under any more stressful circumstances.

MandyPepperidge · #**119** 02-19-2009, 07:50 AM

I am shocked that Anoop wasn't in. But I'm confident he'll be a wild card pick, especially if he only missed the third spot by a slim margin!

srmom · #**120** 02-19-2009, 12:35 PM

Totally my pick for the top 3. Hoping against hope that they don't bring Tatiana back! She may bring the drama, but she is a loose cannon waiting to go off!!

I also think Anoop will be back, especiallys since he barely missed being top 3.

I want to see Adam and Nick/Norman next week and hope they make it through, besides having great voices, they add flair!!
