Offical American Idol Discussion Thread

Actually, both he AND Camile annoy me.

Better luck next week, eh?

I can't believe Camille made it. I don't think she can sing and something about her really bothers me. Matt is okay and I actually think he sang a little bit better last night than he did on Tuesday. Anyway, I'm looking forward to next week, there's a few in that group who I expect will be really good. So far I'm not too happy with the 4 who have been picked already.

Too bad they couldn't bypass any contestants from last night, just say you were so bad none of you made it thru, and take an extra person from 2 other groups.

I can't believe Camille made it either. I guess we all hear different things. I thought she was terrible, flat, nasal, taking breaths and not finishing words, etc. My brother on the other hand thought that she was the best in the group (not saying much, lol). I can't stand Matt either, he almost seemed to be threatening Simon IMO. Nasty guy and not very talented either. Oh well, hoping for better things next week.

Did you think that Matt kept giving Simon dirty looks all night? It did almost look as if he was giving him the, "If I don't make it, you just better watch out" look. And he certainly wasn't very chummy with Lisa while they were waiting for their final results. That whole group seemed cold.

Maybe if Camille loses her nerves she'll do better. And Matt should lose his attitude. He's okay but not good enough for the attitude!! Did anyone else notice Camille's attitude when Matt was announced as going thru? It didn't look like there is too much love lost there. Or it could have been just my 'magination.

We get AI in th Uk on our digital channels, but I think it might be last years shows, last week Fantasia got through can someone tell me if this is the current series or last years?

 

[cheeringmom]

i agree goofy4tink. Camille seemed less than thrilled with Matt moving on. But did you see Lisa's face when he was called for the third runner up? I think she knew she was a goner at that point. Hopefully Lisa will be back. I think she was the best of the three.

I thought Camille looked almost unhappy throughout the whole show. Maybe it was just nerves? As far as matt goes, I don't think there was any love lost between him and ANYONE else. I definitely noticed the distance between him and Lisa and between him and Camille. Maybe nobody in the group likes his arrogance any more than we do! And did you notice when it was down to Matt and Marisa, she was grabbing his arm and attempting some sort of comraderie, but he looked like he was just barely tolerating it. He just appears extremely self absorbed to me.

Fantasia won from last weeks show. So it sounds like you are watching this season but one week after we see it here in the US.

I was shocked when he said it was Matt and not Lisa going on. While I didn't really care for anyone from that group, Lisa outsang the rest of them by a mile. And Matt's attitude is so getting on my nerves.

Yes, I did. Both last night & Tues night.

Matt better "check" his attitude. Simon may not decide who is going through, but his opinions obviously sway the voting.

I still say he looks at least 10 years older than he is.

I thought that both Camille and Lisa looked witchy during the entire show. Unhappy. Mad. Cold. Couldn't put my finger on it, but I read it differently than the rest of you.

I actually like Matt. He's a little cocky, but I think he's refreshing. I don't think he's talented enough to make it any further than this.

I would count on Lisa being one of the wildcards, unless there are some amazing people yet to come who don't get into the top 12.

When we were watching the show last night, my husband asked me how old Matt was. He does look older. How did he get through and the other "older" looking contestants didn't?

I don't know what the judges see in Camille. I don't remember her from the tryouts so she didn't stand out to me.

I still feel that had Brianna sang something different she would have had a good chance to go on. She even thought so herself. I doubt there is a chance at a wild card appearance now unless the judges want to bring her back for that show.

Don't care for Matt. Liked him at first, think he can sing but don't like his attitude at all. Hope he's gone soon win the finals begin. Maybe his attitude will get him kicked out. Wonder what kind of behaviour rules they have.

 

[airhead]

He stinks. And yeah, I do think he has a lot of buddies who voted and voted and voted and voted.....
American Idol? I don't think so.

 

[gometros]

Did anyone else hear the latest about William Hung? He performed during halftime of a college volleyball game, backed up by dancers. He got a $25,000 contract from someone, but I did n't catch who.

 

[nsyncraider17]

Wow, apparently I'm completely in the minority here, but I love Matt! He was one of my favorites from the beginning, and although I was disappointed in his song choice on Tuesday night, I still think he's a great performer.

I did think it was stupid of him to say that he wanted to make Simon's head bleed, but I really don't see how he's anymore arrogant than any other contestant. In their video clips before their performances, they all say "I'm definitely the American Idol, and if these people don't vote me through then they're crazy, because I deserve to be here more than any of these other contestants."

 

[damo]

What did you think when Ryan said that Jesus got 70,000 more votes than Noel? I didn't think they would have gotten that many combined

 

[Planogirl]

nsyncraider17, ITA. I liked Matt from the beginning too and I thought that his attitude was likely due to nerves. But if he doesn't settle down, I'll probably get annoyed with him too.

As for Camille, to me she just seems quiet and reserved. I liked her the best out of this group.

It's funny how people see different things.

 

[bubbleprincessmom]

These guys were so forgettable. I know Matt is the football player, but which one was Camille? Is she the little gal from Hawaii? I too can't get over how they divided up the talents groups, several to last week and NONE this week, heres hoping it gets better of Simone will be the one getting the boot! No ratings....no AI. Which brings up another point, how many AIs can there be at once. We still have Kelly around and Clay (sorry I just don't hear much about Ruben) if you keep adding to the list won't it "water down" what it meant to win in the first place?
