American Idol Thread

the judges were on larry king live last night and here is the synopsis accordings to mjsbigblog

-Highlights:

-All four plan to donate their earnings for that night to Idol Gives Back.
-They agree that it will come down to a Battle of the Davids–David Archuleta and David Cook–for the Final Two.
-Simon predicts that Syesha Mercado, Kristy Lee Cook or Jason Castro will be eliminated Thursday.
-David Cook is favored by all 3 judges. Simon calls him “fearless” and says he’s his personal favorite.
-They agree that Carly Smithson has not figured out who she is as an artist yet.
-They think Michael Johns should stick to blue eyed soul. They don’t like him as a rocker.
-Brooke White should stick to what she does best–singer/songwriter stuff. She could make it into the Final 3 or 4 if she picks the right songs.
-All the judges agree that David Archuleta is the one to beat. He needs to pick the right songs to maintain his front-runner status.
-Simon says the odds of Kristy Lee Cook winning are “one million to one”. Randy thinks she could have a country recording contract somewhere down the road. Simon doesn’t think she’s a great country singer. “She’s forgettable,” he says.
-Randy thinks Jason Castro is “OK” as a singer–he’s just a “singer/songwriter in a bar”. Ryan challenges Randy. He says Randy said something different on the show. Paula thinks he has a very “definitive style”. Randy would not give him a recording contract, but he’d sign Kristy Lee Cook. Simon thinks Jason is all about song choice. Simon says, “the trouble is, he turns up every week and he looks like he doesn’t care.”
-Randy thinks Syesha Mercado is more of an actress/singer and that she’ll end up on stage. Simon doesn’t think her vocals are good enough.
-Simon’s favorite Idol is Kelly Clarkson. He thinks she brought legitimacy to the franchise, and he likes her personally since he’s gotten to know her.
-An email question uses the phrase “pimp spot” and the judges find that funny. They have NO clue whatsoever how performance order is picked. They think names are picked out of a hat!
-Randy thinks America has gotten the winner right every year. Simon thinks America got it wrong Season 5 with Taylor Hicks.
-Larry King is an idiot.


the other spoiler is that (highlight to read)
David Cook will be singing Innocent by Our Lady Peace


 
:rotfl:

Yeah, that Larry isn't quite the sharpest crayon on the box, is he? LOL

Thanks for the highlights! I didn't know they were going to be on. :)
 
Yup, Wednesday is the benefit, and the program is 2 1/2 hours long.

Well I may just sneak a peak at the thread because I am on westcoast time to see who got voted off. I can bet I won't like half of the performers enough to sit there for 2 and a half hours LOL.
 
Damo ~ Thanks for posting the judges' interview. Great info.

Now I need to check out the song that David C is rumored to be singing.
 

Another spoiler...

David A will be singing ... (highlight to view) Angels by Robbie Williams

No one's getting voted off on Wednesday. The performance show is tonight, tomorrow is Idol Gives Back, and Thursday is the results show :thumbsup2
 
For you Jason fans.

WOW... I go out of town for a week and there is a new thread! Ya know you are addicted to Idol if you are at Disney and you are rushing back to the hotel so you don't miss idol :rolleyes1

Just my quick thoughts... David C still awesome :love: Michael still awesome :love: Jason needs to do a bit better... he is started to sound the same to me but overall still love him. Lip Licker still bugs me and the girls are not measuring up to the guys.

Thank goodness for DVR... not sure I can watch this much Idol this week. Am I dreaming or was the elimanation show a 1/2 hour last seasons :confused3

And what does a Brooklyn girl know about cow coming home :upsidedow :rotfl: Love ya Robin :hug: But I agree... I could listen to Jason until the cows come home ;)
 
Something about that kid (Jason) that I like. I hope he does good this week. Thanks for the pic!!

Does anyone know what the theme is this week?
 
I LOVE the song David A is singing. I think I saw a youtube video of him singing it when he was younger.

Someone said that it was Inspirational songs. I haven't totally figured out what that means yet. Hopefully there won't be any of the Winans songs on there.

LOL - I'd be running back to watch also!

Some of the elimination shows have been 1/2 hour in the past. I miss those! Maybe when they get down to a few contestants, they'll go back to 1/2 hour.

I miss the 1/2 hour results shows! The past six seasons have had 1/2 hour results shows where there was a recap, a quick talk with the judges, the Ford commercial and then someone was sent packing, and that's really all they need. Once in a while there would be a special hour-long results show and it was always more exciting since they would throw in some fun surprises... now the results shows are getting kind of dull :confused3
 
I don't like it when they talk back to the judges. Makes me uncomfortable
 
I though MJ was alright...it was good, but I kind of agree with Simon about him impersonating.

I really like Syesha, I thought she sounded great. I don't really know the original though...but I thought she sounded the best she has in weeks.
