Official American Idol Season 4 Thread

[simpilotswife]

While I normally like Scott I thought that he should have gone instead of Nadia. Her song may have been a little different but she did a good job with it.

I think Bo was there because the rockers voted for Constantine. He did a great job with Bohemian Rhapsody and that is what people voted for.

 

[totalia]

It should have been Scott to go.

 

[lulubelle]

I am very sad Nadia is gone. She was great. Scott, Anthony and Anwar are good.....not great...like Nadia. I think we (America) got it wrong. Well, let's hope she gets a recording deal, she deserves it. But I am holding true to my top two - Carrie and Bo - Vonzell in third

The cool thing is we can all have our opinions.

 

[Caropooh]

But this leaves the question.... Who the HECK is voting for Scott!?!

That is exactly what i want to know! With icky Mikalah the teenage crowd ws voting for her. But with Scott, WHO???????

 

[my3kids]

I can't believe Scott is still on there! On our local radio station they keep talking about Scott's conviction for assult....he threw a telephone at the mother of his 3 week old child hard enough that the phone broke....and people keep voting for him???? Once he crossed that line I don't care how good his voice is! He is a creep.

Well when Scott got called up for the bottom three, I was relieved. He was one of my favorites until the "Phone" incident. Then I even started to get over that... until his tirade against Simon last Tuesday. This guy appears unstable and certainly not someone I would like to see as an American Idol.

Then, OH NO!, Bo is called. WTH! OK, not his best on Tuesday but worse than Anwar? No way!

Poor Nadia. She was a victim of her own bad song choices. Someone should have told her that you sing for the audience, not for yourself.

It's true, although I don't understand it, that Scott has a huge fan base on the AI board. I have a feeling that most of them are young and power dial the entire two hours. I hate the way the voting is done!!

So Nadia is gone. She was lovely to look at and had a wonderful voice. My thoughts are she will do well even without AI. Bo is safe for this week but the man is going to have to step it up. From the AI boards it appears the majority of his fans are in the 30+ age group so Bo, sing music we've heard of.

And we're left with Scott. I just don't get it!

 

[cheeringmom]

i didnt find what bo said arrogant at all. at all. he meant that if he doesnt win he'll still be happy doing what hes doing. singing. i love the carefree attitude he has and im definetely going to vote for him next week. did anyone try to vote alot last night, like me, but could never get through?

ITA he "kept it real" as my teens would say. I was even MORE impressed after his mini interview last night. Go BO!!

 

[Ranatra]

It breaks my heart to see Nadia leave tonight. I think she has more presence and star quality than anyone who's left...

My thoughts exactly!
It's unbelievable to me that she is gone and Scott and Anthony are still there. What a joke.

 

[6_Time_Momma]

That is exactly what i want to know! With icky Mikalah the teenage crowd ws voting for her. But with Scott, WHO???????

I voted for him, and I am not tone deaf either!

 

[snoopy]

Scott is Carmen Rasmussen or that chick from last year, Jasmine I think her name was? (i.e., the one who wouldn't go) rolled up into a meaner, bigger, nastier package.

Oh, also, I'm old, but wth is that thing he does with his hand? He even sings doing it! He hold his pinky and his forefinger up.....is this some sort of sign? Anyone know? He's creepy, and the fact that he's still here when someone like Nadia, who has more talent in HER pinky and forefinger than he does in his whole body, is gone, is just devastating to me. I'll continue to watch, but with less enthusiasm. Last week Nikko being the one to leave over Scott left me bummed out, this week I feel really gypped.

 

[Cindy B]

I do NOT understand Scotts appeal. I know he has fans, but I don't get it. It is the "thug" image that is appealing to young voters, sort of like the "Anti-Idol"?

Nadia is talented. She was beautiful, fun, and sassy. I get so disappointed on every results show because my favorites are leaving (and yes, I vote)

So far only Constantine and Carrie haven't made it to the bottom three now.

 

[orangeblossom]

I thought it was a gang sign or rap sign of some sort, Snoopy.

Everyone has their own opinions. Personally, I can't understand the appeal of Constantine at all.

 

[StaceyA]

The only people I know who actually voting for Scott are these people.


Can't believe though, that he actually has real fans.

Im voting for him....I don't understand why everyone assumes that he is only getting votes from people who aren't "real" fans....I don't like Bo and don't think he is very good, do I assume that he doesn't have Real Fans? no

 

[dizneenut]

While I think Scott needs to be more humble, and lose some of his attitude and arrogance, you can't deny the fact that the boy can sing. To say his fans are tone deaf is pretty harsh.

Everyone has different taste and opinions in music.

 

[WDWLVR]

What I don't get with Scott is that pounding on his chest all the time. It's like his only move. Kind of like when Rueben would do his hand extension - except I didn't mind that. Scott just creeps me out and I don't think he is talented at all.

I think Bo was being real and I think he is very grounded and will do well in life no matter where he finishes in the competition. Sounds like he has a great relationship with his mom and is being his true self.

I think Nadia will also do well. She, too, was true to herself. She said she picked the songs she did because they meant something to her. Good for her!

Not that they would ever show it, but wouldn't you love to be a fly on the wall back at the AI house. They really seem like they all get along on stage, but you know there has to be some friction especially on Wednesday nights.

 

[HollyJoy]

I don't understand why Scott is there too. I thought surely last night he was gone. I don't think Nadia is the best, but I think she's better than Scott. Was surprised to see Bo in the bottom 3! Wow!

 

[CarolinaBlue]

If Bo goes before Scott, I will stop watching.

 

[Tasha+Scott]

I find it amusing how the same people that get offended if you say something neg. about one of their favorites are so openly not only insulting Scott but also his fans. I happen to like Scott and I don't appreciate people insulting me on this thread saying that his fans must be tone deaf or must be young and speed dialing for 2 hours, etc. Hello...not everyone likes the same person. I don't personally care for Constantine at all but I don't insult his fans. And just for the record, I also don't vote at all so I am not the reason Scott is still there...but I am glad that he is! But please people, if you don't like Scott, that's fine. You are entitled to your opinions, but don't insult the people that do like him. Last time I checked we are allowed to have an opinion without feeling insulted as well. Okay, my little rant is over.

Okay, I was not at all surprised by the bottom 3. It would not have been my choice for the bottom 3. As I said previously in this thread I would have liked the bottom 3 to be Anwar, Anthony, and Constantine but didn't think it would be. I am also not surprised Nadia went home. She has been in the bottom 3 three times so she must not have had the fan base the others had, I guess. I do think she is beautiful and talented and hope she makes it far. I think she could easily model even if she doesn't sing. As far as Bo, I was not shocked he was in the bottom 3 either, but I do admit I was surprised that he was in the bottom 2. I expected the bottom 2 to come down to Scott and Nadia with Nadia going home. I never expected it to come down to Nadia and Bo. I love Bo but I do think he doesn't care whether he's there or not. So if he goes home soon, I will be sad, but I will figure oh, well, he doesn't seem to care anyway. And besides, I think he will make it far no matter what anyway. My favorite now is definitely Vonzell. I hope she at least makes it to the top 3!

 

[skiwee1]

The fact that Bo doesn't care and knows that he'll be okay without this is what I like best about him.

He sounded pretty insulting to his fans. I mean, why vote for someone who thinks he has it made anyway? Gee, I sound like all those Scott naysayers the other day. If you compared the twos remarks BO was most definitely arrogant.
