American Idol Top 20 Season 9

[Robinrs]

Just like Ruben Studdard. Never got him either.

Uh, NOT. LOOOOOved Ruben, he was REAL R&B. Mike is a caricature.

 

[kimmar067]

Uh, NOT. LOOOOOved Ruben, he was REAL R&B....

...not to mention the 'teddy-bear' factor...

 

[TruBlu]

Uh, NOT. LOOOOOved Ruben, he was REAL R&B. Mike is a caricature.

Totally agree.

 

[kimmar067]

Really? Different background colors for different platforms?...wow, I never woulda thunk it.

Ok, so I'm just going to repeat here what GoofyfodDisney3 has posted above, I think we should all try to include everyone of the AI thread posters, because, this year?...frankly?...you all are the ONLY reason I still (kind of/sort of/because I can't stand to be in the same room as the TV when AI is on) watch AI this year.

So, maybe for this next week's shows, let's try to post any spoilers in "Lemon Chiffon" and the slightly smaller font-size of "1" and then as always we can just highlight to read?

That sound ok to everyone?...
agnes!

...sorry...nope.....nyet....no way...not having it....nuh-uh...




















...I like to be difficult.....

Idolatry was a blast! I was really looking forward to the newest installment because I almost always agree with Slezak and I couldn't wait to hear what he had to say. He didn't disappoint! Idolatry and Mjesings' Youtube channel are my favorite Idol commentaries.

Idolatry on the EW site.

OmG, I thought me and Kimmar were separated at birth. Michael Slezak is my male much less attractive TWIN!!! I could've WRITTEN that!!!

Oh how I wish we were losing 4 more this week.

I cannot stand Lacey and Big Mike. Most I am neutral towards, but these two I want GONE. I hate her silly fake hair and his pointy head. The way she sounds when she talks and he sounds when he sings grates on me. And both seem WAY too full of themselves.

Aaron, Katie, and Paige all leave me cold. I can't believe any of them are still there. I just watched the guys episode all the way through and Aaron was PAINFULLY out of tune. WTH did the judges hear???

Andrew started out ok, now he can go anytime and I won't miss him.

I want to like Crystal. I feel like I am SUPPOSED to like Crystal. But I just don't.

On other boards a lot of people are jumping on the Sioban bandwagon and I just don't get it.

Tim and Didi have both grown on me a tiny bit. I think both did well this week.

Casey is good. I like that he's laid back, seems like a nice guy, and doesn't come off as apathetic or too cool for the whole thing like Crystal does. And I appreciate the fact that at least this week he didn't hold up the requisite number of fingers to get people to vote. That looks SO cheesy. I don't know if they are pressured to do that, but it always looks stupid!

And that leaves Lee. He is the only one I actually LIKE. The songs he picks haven't been done 1000 times on the show already. His voice is the most pleasing to my ear. I just wish he would stay in tune better and shave that THING off his chin!

You took the words right outta my mouth! Only slight difference is that Didi hasn't grown on me. I don't get the weird up and down voice thing she does. But at least last week she did kinda prove why she was there.

Did anyone else read the article in Rolling Stone? It was titled Post Paula Depression and it was spot on! (It has Shaun White on the cover if anyone wants to read it.)

...tha-ahnk yew.....

 

[gometros]

Did you compare Adam to Toddrick???? There is WAY more to theatrical than THAT!!!

Only in the fact that both of them have musical theatre backgrounds and they use that in their performing. I didn't mean to compare them talent wise.

Wow, this is what I find fascinating by this thread - the reactions to certain performers. I like Big Mike. Not love him, just like him. I can see where he isn't for everyone, but the reaction here threw me.

I guess I like him him cause other than the voice he reminds me of a black me, build, looks, etc.

LOL, my son is a BLACK Big Mike (same name, size, and character) and I STILL don't like him!! I thought the reaction to him on this thread was mostly positive, with me and a couple others being the stand outs.

I so wish your images weren't blocked at work. I have the funny feeling I'm missing something good.

 

[Cogswel_Cogs]

So has this link been spoiled with performances yet?
When Ihighlight all I see is a lot of nothing.
Thats what I was expecting to see tomorrow after most of the contestants perform.

I agree! I loved Ruben! Mike is just so so to me. I don't see anything special about him.

Paige is battling VC Laryngitis, unsure of whether she will perform or not. Casey is sick as well.

Paige I won't miss but I want to see Casey, wow. Hope he got a new shirt this week!

I'm worried that they are going to do slow versions of rockin' Stones songs and it will be another snoozefest.
