Can't wait to hear some of those discussions. I actually feel bad for Jon. Every week he expects to go home and looks devastated when someone else does.

Simon payed him a great complement last night. It was nice to hear Simon acknowledge his mature reactions to the criticisms he's received. Unlike some of the others

THEY'RE BACK. Everyone run and hide your Clay memorabilia

I hope you're wrong Jdubbs. I really enjoyed Diana's performance and like the quality she brings to the show. I'd hate to see her or Jasmine go.

Personally I feel that the show became a joke the moment Jennifer finished singing her Lion King song (which she probably sang a hundred times on the Disney cruise where she worked) and not one of the judges commented on how she sounded too Broadwayish meanwhile last year every time Clay would open his mouth Simon and Randy would have their Broadway comments about him. Why was Jennifer never put in the same category and please do not say it was because of her nasal sounding voice.

As for fixing it, I would like to believe that all is on the up and up but trusting a network ....

Just what does "Bobo" mean? I heard her use the term with Elton John.

Wouldn't fixing AI fall under the federal laws for game shows since they are competing for a prize? I doubt the FCC would hestitate, for even a second, to move in if they thought any laws were being violated.

Hey Tink -

It's her nickname. It refers to the "bobo" dancing she does, that up and down bopping.

Lizzie is right but I have another reason as to what Bobo means but seeing that this is a family board I will be nice

I thought this was a TALENT show, not who has the best manners, or who's the nicest, or who's the cutest, but about TALENT period. .

 

[lizzie64]

No she did not.

Actually - her bobos could have used a bra bra!!!

Good observation!

 

[lizzie64]

There were so many pauses in the singing last night too. Almost like they were showcasing the band more than the singers.

I felt bad for LaToya. There was more music in her song than her singing.

Miami Sound Machine was great, but I think they may have overshadowed the contestants.

That sure is the truth! It (or should I say they) was distracting!!!

I hadn't read all the posts but I have now figured out that Bobo is Fantasia (figured that out by the bra bra comment)
In our house we refer to her as Burrito. I even got my mom calling her that because I say it so much!
From day one I always thought she sounded like Nell Carter too!
But, she needs to go! I don't care for her voice. It gives me the willie nillies.
I think Diana and LaToya did the best last night. Or should I say not the worst! It was painful to watch!
