Ladies and Gentlemen: Joanna Clark
Did they have to announce everything?!?
Oh well…on with the show. The Season Finale of American Idol.
Group song: everyone boring and again in all white (Except for Syesha’s legs).
The 2 David’s doing Heroe worked for me but little David was terribly out sung during it. He kept hanging onto the notes waaaaayyy too long.
Mike Myers skit was just stupid. Poor little David A. was so confused. Hated it!
Seal and Syesha was painfully awful. I love that song (TNT & TBS tv show promos all summer long was to this song!) But they did a terrible job.
They must have had a talk with John Castro because he seemed almost present. Probably no that you are our paid AI flunky stop acting like you are on 20 blunts and get your act together.
The Ford cars looked cool. SUV Hybrid. That’s cool.
Top 6 girls…yawn. Terrible.
Carly Simon and Michael Johns doing The Letter. I ABSOLUTELY hated it. The arrangement was blasphemy. They could have chosen a better song for those voices to sing. I had to go on youtube to show the girls the ACTUALLY song. Unrecognizable.
Kimmel…you could hear the crickets when he talked about the “19 week karaoke contest”. Painful. He clowned Sanjaya…2 points!
Top 6 boys…pretty good. Except John Castro. Then they continued 80’s night with Brian Adams who was almost unrecognizable. Like Luke Skywalker from Star Wars to Empire Strikes Back (and yes Star Wars geeks I know Mark Hamill was in a motorcycle accident…even though he later downplays it!).
ZZ Top and David Cook – Sounded good…although I can’t remember the lyrics? LOL! Were they his heroes?!?
Brooke is back with her guitar. Ok.
An hour still to go….
I had to ask me the 8 year olds who those kindergartners on the stage were. I thought I had sat on the remote control and accidentally turned the channel to Disney.
David A.’s turn doing Apologize. That sounded like the album he will make. He should have done this song when he was able to choose last week.
Got to meet David’s family…explains a lot.
Jordan Sparks came back to the idol stage singing to a track. She looked terrible. We see the image people were obviously out when it came to her dress, shoes, hair, nails and make-up. Blake looking on in the audience thought perhaps he could have sung the song better.
Gladys Knight and the…overpaid actors shamelessly plugging their new summer film.
Carrie Underwood looked fabulous! Easy to see why she is a star.
George Michael melody sounded pretty good.
GEORGE MICHAEL!!!! What a coo!!!! Love that man. And he sung my song!!! I just rewatched Carrie Underwood singing this song on youtube during American Gives Back. I would have loved if she came back on stage.
And the winner is DAVID COOK!!!! I can’t believe it!!! I wanted him to win soooo bad but I didn’t think he could do it! And David A. handled it like a pro. That is the last place I would want to be as the loser. But my hats off to him.
Gotta go and rewatch over and over again. I’m hooked all over again!!!!! See you in January!!
