American Idol, Season 5 **Official Discussion Thread** Part 2

[dolphindan1]

I have Josh Gracin's and Pray for the Soul of Betty (Constantine's band). No others. Don't want 'em.

I have Carrie's, Ruebens and Josh....I would buy a Taylor and Chris cd....possibly Katherine depending on what type of music

 

[palmtreegirl]

That's how it was with Bucky...Busy, busy, and then a vote wth me constantly calling. I would also get told that the number didn't work. It really does make you wonder...

I voted for Bucky the whole time last week and only got a busy signal two times, weird.

 

[dolphindan1]

WHAT fan base does Kellie have? I haven't heard a single person yet who says they like her. She just hasn't been the hands down worst singer yet (like last night). Tonight will be her Waterloo.

Wrong...she has a tremendous fan base or her grandpa has a real fast dialing finger....She will make the top 4...I like her and everyone has a bad week....all the contestants had...Do I think she is the best singer no but I like her....I think she is a down to earth girl maybe a little gullable(sp) but just a people person....I think Rod Stewart thought so too did you see how he was talking to her after he sang...until this week she was consistantly good...

 

[dolphindan1]

Honest question here: For those of you that don't get the "McFever" thing.....do you like Celine Dion?

My theory is....if you like Celine...you like Kat. They both have the same singing style and personality traits. I for one LOVE Celine's style of music and personality. I also really like Katherine.

I dont like Celine but I like Kat

 

[dolphindan1]

I see it this way:

Winner.... Taylor

2nd place will be Kellie or Chris

3rd Place will be Chris or Kellie

4th place.... Katherine

After that I don't care.

I tend to agree with this...and it is shaping up like that too

 

[dolphindan1]

Wow! Kellie must have some pretty loyal fans! All you Chris fans out there...I hope you learned your lesson tonight and start voting again!!!! Although think it'll be a tough week for him next week with Andrea Bocelli love songs to sing.

Did they say they were singing his song or just getting his guidance and singing the top love songs ever????...

 

[dolphindan1]

WATCHING...not listening.

All thinking "Boy, she's as dumb as a box of rocks...but who cares? She's HOT!"

Thats what i think...LOL...my wife hates it but Kat is quickly moving up against her....if they would just dress her sexy...watch out.....I dont vote....just root for my fav...TAYLOR baby

 

[dolphindan1]

Taylor used to be one of my favorites, But all I can say is....
Taylor.....totally classless. I have never seen anyone on the show before with that low of class and bad taste.

I don't care if anyone else shares my opinion...I was disgusted...had to vent.

What did he do to upset you?.....the show kinda put him on the spot and I think he showed Chris the utmost respect.....I personally think he should had stood in the middle like Bo last season but hey....who cares

You can buy Taylor's CD at lasersedgedotcom. You can go to graycharlesdotcom and listen first. I my "Under the Radar" CD and can hardly wait for the tour to see Taylor.

I don't get why some here don't think he would sell .

Look at his "Trouble" or "Takin' it to the Streets" performances. HOT! Definitely not "fluff" songs, especially "Trouble. " ...trouble been doggin' my soul since the day I was born." Fluff?!

I was hoping he would stand in the middle but I have a feeling that was not an option this year...

What brought this on? All I saw was the last 3 minutes.

 

[DBarber600]

What brought this on? All I saw was the last 3 minutes.

They split the idols into a high group and a low group and asked Taylor to choose the high group. He walks over to Chris, Paris, and Ace (low group) shakes Chris' hand then walks over to high group.

Alot of Chris lovers here may have taken offense to that?

Ok, got it. Without seeing it, I can't make a judgement. Doesn't sound too bad to me. Thanks.

 

[TrueEeyore]

Does anyone else notice that Simon is always nice to the person that is going to be eliminated? I know he was nicer Tuesday night than he's ever been, but he was really nice to Ace and Ace seemed so grateful. If I were on the show and Simon hated me and all of a sudden he was nice, I'd know I was getting voted off! Just seems weird to me...

 

[Caropooh]

I just saw John Travolta. Doesn't matter though, it is Ace's time to go home. He is the weakest link right now.

It's funny how some people say how everyone they know loves Taylor. I don't know one person who wants Taylor to win. I think Chris or Kat would be more marketable.

I saw John Travolta in Ace also.
I'm so sad to see Ace going home. The top 3 and bottom 3 really surprised me tonight. No way would i have put Katharine and Kellie in the same group.

For all of you who tried to vote for Chris this week but always got a busy signal...what were you calling in on?

Both my mother and myself voted for him, but I used a land line...she, her cell phone. I was able to get in 60 times, while she was never able to get in, during the whole 2 hour voting time. The same can be said of Taylor and Kat... I was able to get in, she was not.

So next week try to use a land line and see what happens. I know that for now on, I will be trying to use both.

I like her too. I don't get all the venom thrown her way, but I guess I am in the minority on these boards because I can't stand Katharine, and really do not like Chris. ( I Like Celine)

 

[Nancyg56]

That is what I thought. I think that making a contestant choose places them in an awful position, and it really bothers me.

 

[aprilgail2]

No, they didn't say they were going to sing his music...just the best love songs of all time.....thanks goodness...I don't think I could sit through an hour of them singing his songs!....could you just see Kelli up there singing a Bocelli song???? UGGGG....... what?? Huh??? I don't get it?? Huh??? Salmon?? Whys there an L in it if you don't say it???Whats A ballsy??? oh geeezzzzzzzzzz dumb as a stump....

 

[shortbun]

Kellie-cute as a button, dumb as mud, mediocre singer and really screwed up this week. Should have gone home. No energy, no timing, no sizzle. Had she sung this way in the first audtion, she would never have gone to Hollywood. I really like her but based on her performance....she was a goner. Paris was excellent too and SHE ends up below Kellie? "Great shoes" indeed!! The Bocelli thing should be interesting . Say goodbye to half the fan base! zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
