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

all I have to say is....Thank You America!

 

[Lisa loves Pooh]

The big difference with Carrie is that she CAN sing.

I know--I was solely commenting on the country girl comment.

Carrie only made one.

Kellie just won't stop.

Did i hear kellie say "what is balllllllsie"? Is she FOR REAL????

OMG, she is too much! Either she doesn't realize what's at stake or she is just really playing it up, but why is she worried about what "ballsie" is/means when her future is about to be revealed. Weird timing. Is that what she is concerned with at that moment? Interesting....

I have to say I was hoping it was going to be Lisa. Good 'ol Kev was growing on me!

 

[Planogirl]

I really expected to see Lisa go home tonight even though I think she's a pretty decent singer most of the time. I'm personally glad that Bucky stayed because I wanted him in the top 10. I suppose that he will be VFTW's new choice now. I would be happy about that but they didn't do much for Kevin so I don't know.

 

[Papa Deuce]

Darn . Kellie Pickler didn't go home .

Whew! Thank goodness Kellie Pickler didn't go home!

 

[SRUAlmn]

I actually have to say that I really like Kellie at first, but I think she is playing the Jessica Simpson card WAYYYYY too much. The whole 'I'm a dumb blonde girl from the south' thing is getting old REAL FAST.


Also, is anyone else tired of Paula's Miss America answers to every single stinking question and for every performance review? I feel like she memorizes lines from poetry books or something before every show and recites them as her critique. It's really getting on my nerves

'I feel you are a flower waiting to bloom. You're leaves will sprout into wings and you will fly into superstardom, blah blah blah...' (insert fork into eye)

LOL! Didn't Carrie catch her mistake after she saw Ryan's reaction to her answer. IDK...Kellie takes days...or maybe weeks to get a joke. That's pretty bad when it is on her.

And the little eye wipe for the tear that was there over Kevin and Bucky...thank god we didn't get the whole Constnatine theatrics from last year.

Did anyone else catch the way the contestants were being really rude when Barry was singing? They were laughing at someone & then kept talking. Lisa had a pathetic clap when he was finished singing too. It looked like her hands were glued together except for just her finger tips as she barely moved them apart to clap.

 

[Fan2CSkr]

I noticed that too. I was watching Mandisa talking to someone next to her. Lisa looked underwhelmed while and after Barry sang.

I am happy that Bucky didnt bite the big one, yet. I like him and would like to see what else he has in the coming weeks. I did wish it would be Lisa this week but I guess theres always next week.

No, they weren't being rude. They were watching Bobby in the audience. They showed him standing up (when everyone around him is seated) and he is just in Fanilow heaven. He looked incredibly funny. That's what they were all laughing at.

They show Katharine say, "Look at Bobby!"

did you get a look at the wig she had on tonight?
she had it pulled too much towards her forehead and it was so obvious.
last night she had it back more and it looked more natural.

yea, paula is the poet.......

 

[Slacking]

Bobby in the audience was absolutely hilarious!

Kevin went home a week too early. Two weks in a row for Lisa being in bottom 3 is a bad sign for her.

 

[r3ngels]

I know alot of people are happy to see him go... I knew he wouldn't make it long but my girls cried tonight it was so sad... yes Simon is right they are 4, 6, and 9 The 4 yo cried the hardest... she was so sad.

Well I think unless it is a drastic change it's Lisa, Bucky and Ace next week.

So glad he made it. I think he will do well enough to make it next week. Glad Kevin is gone he shouldn't have been in the top 12 it should have been Will.

 

[Pluto's Honey]

Do we have a clue about next week? this is the part... is it an era, type, persons music...Why they can't just pick a song and sing it?

 

[damo]

I heard from another board that it was music of the 21st century!!!

 

[Pluto's Honey]

That would put Chris singing something he's comfortable with?
