This is just going to be a summary.
I think there are a lot more good boys this year than girls. I feel like they have to cut some good guys just to have the numbers balance out. There is a Top 36 now instead of Top 24. This is the rules:
In season eight, the semifinals will go back to the basic form of the first three seasons. There will be thirty-six semifinalists who are then divided into three semifinal groups. The three finalists with the highest number of America's votes, one male, one female and the next top vote getter, will advance to the finals. The Wildcard round will also return with the judges choosing three previously eliminated contestants to advance to the finals.
Huh?!? I guess I will understand what that means soon enough!
Here is my pick for the Top 24 (I haven’t seen enough of the group to pick 6 more of each!)
Top 12 Boys:
Danny, Danny, Jamar, Stephen, Matt, Scott, Anoop, Norman, Ju’Not, Kai, Michael, Matt
Top 12 Girls:
Stevie, Alexis, Joanna, Jasmine, Kendall, Anne Marie, Lil Rounds, Kristin, Arianna, Tatianna (she is off the chain!)
I could only think of 10 girls….and Tatianna would be voted off first week!
I would like to see more of the contestants so its good that there are 36 this year. Since I only really know about 25-26 of them really well.
Come join us on the website tomorrow to chat!!!! I will post the pictures of all of the Top 36 tomorrow. Until then…c-ya!
