I do love American Idol, but I am getting a little bored by the lip sync group numbers. It looks so fake. Is this what we can expect for the American Idol tour? Come on. Maybe they sound horrible together. Who knows. But you’d think that since American Idol is claiming they are LIVE, they would actually be LIVE.

David Cook proved why he was the winner from last season. He did a great job! This is a nice platform to launch new singles – I bet David Cook’s latest single will be the top download on iTunes soon. So… even though I really liked David Archuleta better last season and I could listen to him sing all the time, David Cook I think is more main-stream. But I did want to cut the drummer’s hair – that has got to be distracting to have it in your face so you can’t see. Several of the guitar players could have used a nice trim as well. :)

Ahhhh. My laptop is almost out of battery and I left my power cord at work…. hopefully I can get this done and posted before it shuts down.

The bottom three: Megan Joy (when she flapped her arms and cawed going to the chairs I was really embarrassed for her — what in the world what that? certainly not something a star would be doing), Allison Iraheta (I was surprised by that one), and Anoop Desai (not a huge surprise). Sending Allison back to safety was obvious.

I do feel bad for Megan – but I think America got it right in sending her home. She had a good start by being quirky and different, but it became strange and I think it was her time to go. I still think she’s a really cute girl and seems like a darling mother. I’m glad she took a risk and at least gave it a shot.
