Offical American Idol Discussion Thread

[mommytotwo]

Jasmine did such an awesome job last night and then to recieve a rose from Paula, I thought that it was really sweet and you could tell by Jasmine's reaction that she was very touched by it. I really hope she moves on till the very last.

I'm not a fan of Fantasia also, but I do think that she has a really good chance to move on furthur.

Jon Peter (Mad Magazine Guy) does nothing for me talent wise. But, I think he's got a great personality and his attendence at BYU will make him the "Carmen" of the season.

What does that mean?

The last two posts reminded me of questions I wanted to ask.

I thought I heard them say John went to BYU, but in Idaho. Isn't it in Utah?

I didn't see who threw the rose to Jasmine. I thought it came from the audience.

The "original" BYU campus is in Provo, Utah. Jon Peter goes to BYU-Idaho, which was formerly Ricks College. The name change was made just in the last few years.

My favorite's are Jon Peter and Diana.

I didn't realize the rose came from Paula either.

- Fantasia, LaToya, Jennifer, Diana...all almost cancelled each other out, since they are very similar. I enjoyed them all, but would be hard pressed to listen to their music and say "Oh, yeah - that's Jennifer..." It could be just about any of them.

Did I just make any sense?

You made perfect sense to me! I think that is the reason Simon called JPL the dark horse. For me, 3 performers stood out: JPL and John for being different and Leah for being the worst. The others did great job--well maybe not Camille, I'll give you that--but they were so similar it's hard to pick and choose.

Just to clarify..Jon Stevens is from a suburb of Buffalo...that is in western New York State on Lake Erie. Close to Niagara Falls. Amherst is a wealthier suburb as you could tell by looking at his house...but this is a very depressed area economy wise..that house would sell for over 300,000.00 in the upstate/NYC area....here it goes under 200,000.00. Buffalo is about as middle class as you are going to get.

This years group are almost all very talented. It'll be fun to watch the competion as the weeks go by.
I have favorites and a couple I don't like at all but will comment on a couple things--my Simon rant.
Randy, please talk like an adult. Paula,don't talk so much, Simon don't be so rude, as in pack your bags your going home. Judges stop bickering with each other. Seacrest, shave.
Performers, Amy (young Bea Arthur) that pink neon hair is ugly as sin! To several performers stop mugging for the camera--its annoying. Thats all I have to say------

I think Amy reminds me a lot of an actress that used to be on a TV show called "Hope and Gloria" -- her name is Cynthia Stevenson. She also was in "Air Bud" and is in the "Agent Cody Banks" movies. Here's a link to a picture of her.

Great show last night, but I already know WHO will be gone tonight....Leah! Also, the next one will most likely be Camile! Hopefully Matt will stay, but most likely not for long....its a shame, cause I like him The top 5 right now:Jennifer, John Peter, Jasmine, George, and Jon Stevens!

 

[Jdubbs]

Jon Stevens has to go.Camille was bad last night.But Leah will go tonight

 

[TiggerPiglet]

I think Jasmine, Fantasia and Diana were the best singers last night. I think the girls are definitely outshining the boys by far. I wonder if this will change as the competition goes on, it will be interesting to see.

 

[Robinrs]

LOL, elmosmom!! Right ON!

FOJMO, I used to LOVE Hope and Gloria! I think Cynthia Stevenson is cute and quirky! Amy STILL reminds me of Bea Arthur though. I can't look at her without seeing Maude!

Can't wait to see tonight's show, I hope it goes fast but I know that's wishful thinking! It's PAINFUL suffering through performances, especially REPEAT ONES, when all you want to know is who made it through!

 

[Disfan1]

So -who didn't make it? I was watching Survivor & missed AI tonight.

 

[beattyfamily]

Leah gone...

 

[damo]

I was surprised to see Jennifer in the bottom three. Next week should be interesting. It is COUNTRY!!!!!!!

 

[elgerber]

I was even more surprised to see Jennifer in the bottom two. Interesting.

Yes, Amy totally reminds me of Cynthia Stevenson!!!

 

[Kimberle]

My 5 yo wants to know why Simon was "sleeping" the whole show!

I want to know why he kept "twirling" Paula's hair!!

 

[Disney-Kim]

why do they make the losers sing. if they sucked last night then they suck tonight.

 

[Disney-Kim]

who do you think will go next? I think the bottom 2 left tonight will be in the bottom the next couple of times too. joined by the football guy, the quiet hawaiian one, and the crooner. jmo.
