Hollywood Week - Part I

147 contestants, they are cutting about 40 people today. That’s rough. Perhaps it will be painless…but I bet not! I like the idea of AI Boot camp. I think they can weed out some people that should leave early.

Let’s begin:


Lil Rounds – 1st girl was not good. They keep referring to her as really good…but I didn’t think so. I think she was shouting. I will give her another chance to impress me.




Dennis – terrible singing, lips, ugly, bye bye. Embarrassing himself, that’s nice.




Anoop – I liked him. I think a middle eastern dude is a nice addition to the competition. And yes… it does start matter the race, gender, even hometown of the contestant becomes important.



Jasmine – She was good. Way better than Lil. Still can’t believe she’s 16.




Rose – She reminded me of Brooke from last year. Okay…but not great. She is a lounge singer at best. Talented…but not the next American Idol.




Stephen – He reminded me of John Legend and Brian McKnight. He definitely has a voice that is going to be recorded.




Jorge – too much shouting…but a nice voice. Girls are going to go crazy for that accent.




Von – I thought he was too young to begin with. Much too High School Musical. He blew it. Once more mistake and he is out.




Nick aka Norman – Loved him…and I hope he does well. I will do ANYTHING if he makes it!!! I will vote for him week, after week, after week, after week.



Jackie – I like her. But I don’t think she will go super far because her voice is very rocker. But not like David Cook who could change arrangements and make them is own.


Jamar – I liked him. Very smooth, silky voice. Danny, his buddy, was just okay. I love Kiss From A Rose but he struggled in the beginning. He got stronger as he went.


Katrina – The boys don’t really care what she sounds like. She is terrible. Put her through so me and millions of women can dog her week after week and call her a slut. I look forward to making her cry.


Emily – terrible song choice. If the experts tell you what to do…why do something different?!?



I would have liked to have heard more singing. The show really has become too much fluff. Do they think we can’t notice?!? More commercials than the Super Bowl. I do like this part of the competition and group performance is notoriously gruesome. People goofing off instead of practicing, forgetting the lyrics and just being all around bad! I can’t wait!

Until tomorrow….c-ya!
