AI – The Top 7
Sorry, no blog yesterday. So to quickly recap, Jordan and Phil were fantastic, Melinda typical old lady performance, Blake boring (I know y’all love him!), Chris, good at first and then nasally, Lakisha and Sanjaya sucked ass.
So Lakisha and Chris are in trouble, Sanjaya should be going home. All in all, country night was not that bad. I am loving Jordan more and more each week and I hope SHE is the next American Idol.

I knew Simon was not that much of a jerk and I am glad they thought it was important enough for him to clear up. And for those suspicious folks, they even showed the video that he didn’t hear it! Anyway, I thought the group song was good. Show was too long but thanks to DVR I am fast forwarding through it. Hate Fergie! She will always be “Skankaliscous”. I can’t believe Ryan tried that old “choose-the-go-home-group” again. It was cool when it was done with Bo Bice and he classily stood in the middle of the 2 groups. Now, it’s just old.
The results: Blake safe! Lakisha safe! Sanjaya goes home!!!! Ding, dong the witch is dead!!! Simon was smiling so you KNOW he knew the results. For Sanjaya to NEVER be in the bottom 3 to know being voted off, hmmm, me thinks the fix is in. And I am A-OKAY with it.
I CANNOT BELIEVE SANJAYA IS THIS SHOCKED?!?!? Brotha, is clueless! Get one and get off the stage!
Now we have a competition. And Howard Stern and Vote for the Worst can go pound sand! Until next week, c-ya.

Remember when American Idol was just this small little show about kids with a dream? Now the results show is like TRL (with the occastional old act). If they don't want people to make a mockery of it by "voting for Sanjaya", then make the results show 30 minutes and just focus on the singing!
I also miss Bennifer! Remember when she sang nice pop songs in english?!? And then when she was with Diddy when she went gangsta! Miss that J-Lo too! Remember when she said the "N" word in the song I'm Real with Ja Rule, "I tell them niggaz to stay out my business but they dont here me though". She didn't go out like Richards or Imus but it was close! Look at her now, on American Idol!
The results: Haley! I'm cool with that. Hated her and didn't think she should have even been there from jump street. Country music next week? We shall see how they do. Until next wek, c-ya!

Jennifer Lopez and Latin night! She basically is not offering anything except shake your booty. No mystery here how she got to the top of the charts. On with the show!
Melinda – She looked and sounded too old. More Broadway and not enough sultry latin flare. Solid performance but I think she should have showed a little cleavage. Show that sizzle side! I agreed with Simon 100%.
Lakisha – Now Lakisha did it right. It might not be her strongest vocal but she will compensate by her looks. She looked great. Cleavage, sexy dress, cleavage. Did I already say that?!? I don’t think she was having fun in that song. I think it was hard for her and definitely out of her comfort song. Better than Melinda though.
Chris – Latin night is always a tough night. This year is no different. The music was good during the performance, but the singing was bad. He should have just done Justin Timberlake’s song Senorita. I did like it the best so far but its still a rough night.
Haley – She was off beat walking in. Never thought I would miss Diana DiGarmo. Could you even hear her over the music? Maybe that was a blessing in disguise. All you could here was her yeah, yeah, yeahs. Damn, Simon!
Phil – I definitely think that has been his problem all season, connecting with the song. He got into at the end. I would rate it a B- performance, no goosebumps.
Jordan – Great job! She is the dark horse in all this. Past Melinda and Lakisha, despite the Sanjaya conspiracy, SHE just may be the next idol. The song was lacking because the song is lacking. They are doing their best with the material and she has done the best all night so far.
Blake – I see what Simon was saying. I like this performance but it (and all the singers) are lacking something. It may be the tempo of the songs. I love this song and it definitely is faster. So again, good performance with what they have to work with.
Sanjaya – You go boy! He got that 5 o’clock shadow going on! He is here another week gang! After Blake and Jordan, he was next best. All he had to do was stop smiling and be a little more smoldering with the camera and he would have nailed it 100%. Perhaps pretend to be seducing someone. I agreed with Simon. Sung it like a 14 year old boy, but didn’t do horrible.
So based on the review at the end, Haley or Chris is going home. Should be Haley. Wish it was Sanjaya. Until tomorrow, c-ya!

To be sung like Dr. Cox on Scrubs (or a bell tower if you don't watch the show):
"Wrong, wrong, wrong wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong. Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!
We KNEW Sanjaya wasn't going home. But no way Haley was better than Gina. I like Gina's singing, but something about her personality rubs me wrong. But she still should have stayed over Haley. But that's America for you! Did ya vote??? Until next week, C-ya!

Tony Bennet week. Oh, I long for the days of Gloria Estefan week! Anyway, I was sick of the auditions after 2 weeks and now I am sick of theme nights. I look forward to the weeks when they can sing something topical. Diana Ross, 60’s groups and now Tony Bennet. It’s American Idol 2007! OK, enough of my rant, on to the show!
Blake – He sung well enough. He was a little fast, but still good performance. Not his fault I can’t stand old standards. After about a minute, I fast forwarded it.
Phil – Now he was too slow at first. I thought it was a good song choice. He definitely got better towards the end. Now this would be a good song to hear Henry Connick sing this. He shows how to sing these songs and connect with them. And if that was him focusing on his wife, there marriage is in trouble.
Melinda – I’m glad she did this slowly at first. She is definitely going Broadway if she doesn’t win. Mark my words. Great performance. I can criticize her, hated the dress.
Chris – His best performance. I liked it a lot. I would love it if has 100% dressed in the era. They always have to hip him up. Not too versatile. But his voice showed he could do other things. Good job!
By the way, the show makes the signs that the audience is holding. They pass them out when the people are waiting in line. No way that that 9 year old made that “Chri$ is rich with R&B” sign. She probably doesn’t know what R&B stands for! Taylor, 7 years old, just said “Root Beer.” Madison, 9 years old, just said “Rap & Beats”. ‘nuff said.
Jordan – I loved her outfit, it was perfect. She is bringing it every week. The song could have been a mess but she did an excellent job with it. She showed great control of her voice. I disagree with Simon. I did hear her own style in the voice. That was her. She sounded a little like she is fighting a cold but still did a great job.
Gina – Worried about the song choice. The band did a great job with it. She was too happy for the song. Didn’t he just say 911 and soldiers in Iraq?!? Now it showed she is versatile but definitely not her style. It was good vocally. I don’t agree with Simon. I will say this week they are showing that there is a lot of vocal talent this season.
Sanjaya - Damn! He didn’t suck. We definitely have to lower our standards. He is definitely high school talent show. In a white neighborhood. He is the weakest link (to be said like the game show announcer). Another week of Sanjaya. I think Simon should just come out and say, “I know people are voting for you as a goof because you are far from the most talented performer on the show. So if you don’t care, and America doesn’t care, why should I? If you are brave enough to look in the other performers’ eyes as they are voted for off instead of you, well then, good luck.” A different tactic? Let’s try shame.
Haley – Thank you Tony. What he wanted to say, “Try not to be a whore when you sing this classic song, please”. And what does she do, tramp it up. I would love to borrow that dress though. Don’t complain, Paula, if your not going to give your opinion.
Lakeesha – These old foggies hate when these newbies change the song. Loved the dress. I liked her but Melinda beat her this week. I agreed with Randy.
Who is going home? Haley. Who should? Still Haley. But if Sanjaya was voted off, we could save Haley for another week. She is not getting any better. C-ya tomorrow.
