American Idol: Season 10 PART III

haha!!! I came across this...so funny...with all of the faces Scotty makes (it's the kid from the cover of MAD magazine)

while i am not a James fan, i will say that at least he performs his butt off. i do agree with the PP who said it can be a bit indulgent though.

if it's James/Scotty in the final two, i think it may be close. Scotty seems to have a strong following. i think if either of the girls is against one of the guys, then the guy is going to win.

i don't love any of them and i won't buy any of their albums.
 

I can't stand Haley, don't know why, she has a bad aura.


I love, love, love James!!! He is my #1. :lovestruc:banana::yay:



Lauren is #2.



Scotty is a distant #3.
 
I totally missed what she was wearing. I tend to listen and not watch other than a glance here and there to see what the contestants have on, or how the girls have their hair done.

I saw Gaga's hair and makeup..but that was it.
 
Or, to pull out an old Simon word (you know, from a time when people were actually critiqued on this show), James is really "indulgent." James is no Adam Lambert...and I really disliked Adam Lambert. However, Lambert at least had control of his voice. James just pulls out a high-pitched guttural scream in every song.

Those two long pauses in Love Potion No. 9 (to force the audience to scream in adoration) made me angry for some reason.

I agree! I can't stand how James has to scream in every single song he sings-even if it starts out good he always ends up ruining it with his high off pitch horrible screaming.
 
I would be fine with Haley leaving. I hope if the country vote gets split that they say goodbye to Lauren. I think she's too immature to be an entertainer on her own right now. She might be okay as a back up singer for a country star. Regardless of what happens to Scotty on this show, he will be a country star because he's got that voice. I'm thinking in the end, it will be James that wins it all because he's got the showmanship, but he should learn to reign in that awful screaming he feels he needs to do with every song.
 
Scotty's second "song" was just brutal. It was worse than Haley's first - but the judges place a nice big kiss on his behind.
 
James has been my fav...day one. I liked Paul, Lauren, Scotty and Casey too, but they lost me. Casey is very talented, just not AI material.

My Final Four ranking..

1. James

2. Haley

3. Lauren

4. Scotty
 
Haleys attitude and temper really showed up tonight. She is indulgent to choose a Simon word. You could just see the curse words swirling outside her head, like cartoon bubbles when finally, FINALLY the judges gave some honest critique not all sugar coverd. I am sure they were scolded tho, because they were all nicey-nicey after the break. I missed James' 2nd song ( who is also indulgent, but he backs it up)due to a weather interupt, all we heard was "BEEP-BEEP-BEEP The national weather service blah blah blah". There have been a lot of remakes of that MJ song, and to be honest all are better than what Haley brought tonight. Scotty creeped me out big time on his 2nd song,,,DD said all he was missing was a van with no windows. Lauren, I really liked her performance on the 2nd song, it was a little hard to hear her at times, but I liked her *acting* that JLo keeps asking for.
Haley has got to go..bottom 2 are her and Scotty, and Scotty went with the ultimate heart strings, USA, 9/11 right after the OBL capture/win...so he will more than likely pull in some serious votes.
Ughhhh, Haley, is just....the girl you approach in a bar and then she starts talking and blech....I honestly thought she was more chill than she showed tonight...did not like that side of her at all, complete lack of professionalism,
 
Ryan: "Randy, who won that round?"

Randy: "A tie between Scotty, Lauren, and James"

Hayley: "Oh, that's nice..."

Any chance they get, they knock the girl down...


best part of the show...the girl kinda comes across as a legend in her own mind.
 
Where have y'all been hiding? I've been practically the only one defending Haley for the past few weeks! :laughing:

And damo pretty much sums up my response:



I agree that Hayley wasn't that great, but James was pitchy and all over the place (and certainly was last week as well), but is never critiqued for that.

I usually don't care for contestants talking back, but Hayley has gotten nothing but junk from the judges this whole season while Jacob received ridiculous praise for unknown reasons.

At a certain point, you've got to feel defeated and I think that's how she feels now.

I wish Haley hadn't talked back in defense to the judges. I'm afraid it might lose some votes. But I can only imagine how frustrating it is to work your tail off all week with something that you think is good work and then hear that kind of criticism. But I saw more *hurt* in her face than *attitude*.


Ryan: "Randy, who won that round?"

Randy: "A tie between Scotty, Lauren, and James"

Hayley: "Oh, that's nice..."

Any chance they get, they knock the girl down...

Can you imagine how humiliating that felt? Randy should have taken a cue from Jennifer and kept his mouth shut. Or if he had named one best performance - that might not have been so hurtful as saying it was a tie between the other three. I thought Hayley looked like she was about to lose it at that point. I guess I just don't see the evil in her that others do. :confused3


Haley just knocked it out of the park!!! AMAZING!!!!

This! :thumbsup2


I admittedly zoned out in the judge's "comments," but I'm guessing they didn't say Lauren was sharp and kind of missed several notes at the end.

And I'm kind of guessing they didn't criticize song choice despite that being a fairly lame song that simply repeated "evil" over and over again.

What bothers me about my frustration with this whole thing is that I'm not even a huge fan of Hayley, but I can't help but think she's been unjustly spoken to over the past few weeks while the judges let everyone else fly by.


I agree! I'm not even a huge Hayley fan, voting and texting for her. I think all 4 are very talented, with good days and bad days, good song choices and bad song choices, etc. But the judges seem to give Hayley much more grief over song choice. That second song by Scotty? I just knew they wouldn't like that one! Wrong-O. :headache:



Randy and Jennifer just need to shut the hell up. That was a great job by Hailey. Those two have hated her from the start. Glad that Tyler jumped in. What a joke those 2 are. Of COURSE she's not gonna sound like Michael Jackson. Randy is an incompetent ****.

I was surprised they liked her secong song. Jennifer knocked her first song choice because it wasn't something the audience knew well and could stand up and sing along with. So I don't know why she thought "I Who Have Nothing" would be a crowd pleaser. :confused3


And the idiot Randy predictably says that everyone but Haley was the best in the first round of songs. What a loser.

I thought what Randy did there was the single most crushing thing he could have done. I applaud Hayley for having the guts to pull it together (because she was visibly shaken) and come out and deliver a great performance.

So tomorrow night I really have no guess what will happen. No, I think I will be surprised if it's not Hayley who goes. And it won't be the big shocker like it was when Pia left. Any one of them could go and any one of them could win. I was underwhelmed mostly by Scotty tonight, but I don't think he is going. We'll just have to wait and see!
