It looks like the poor performance of Casey James on last night’s American Idol drove his fans to the phone in hopes of saving the singer. And they were successful, because Casey (who has been in the bottom 3 the past 2 weeks in a row) was sent to safety and not even in the [...]
Hi all — I’m predicting Casey James as the American Idol contestant who gets sent home this week. Honestly I have to say I felt bad for Casey as the judges were brutal. He did seem very nervous and his performance was certainly not his best… but Kara telling him he sounded like a lamb [...]
Ryan Seacrest still tries to get us with his antics of trying to make the eliminations more intense. This week he began by creating 3 groups of 2 contestants each on the stage. Beginning with Siobhan Magnus and Lee DeWyze in one group. Aaron Kelly and Crystal Bowersox in the second group. And Michael Lynche [...]
Shania Twain mentored this week on American Idol and each of the top 6 performed one of Shania’s songs. Lee DeWyze began the evening by performing “You’re Still the One”. I thought the performance was pretty good but a bit pitchy in places – however the crowd seemed to love it, along with most of [...]

Alicia Keys was the mentor tonight on American Idol. With such a huge career and music background, Alicia was a great choice as a mentor for the contestants. So how did the contestants do with her advice and counsel? Casey James – Alicia commented to Casey that he needed to really connect with the song [...]
As Ryan Seacrest stated twice … tonight was the most “dramatic rose ceremony ever!” Oops… wrong show… but Ryan did focus on the “dramatic”, and “intense” in his announcements. I’m sure dragging out the announcements stresses out the American Idol contestants and the producers seem to be trying to make things a little less predictable [...]
I actually have to say that I was was pleased with most of the performances on American Idol last night – and even though some contestants fell far short of the greatness of Elvis – others came through with flying colors. Two American Idol hopefuls will be eliminated tonight and based on performances last night [...]
Don’t you hate it when you haven’t watched American Idol yet… and someone (not mentioning any names … IdolNews guys via Twitter)… someone spills the news about what happened in such a dramatic way… In the TITLE of their article???? Dang it! Well… so obviously now I know that one of my favorite contestants was [...]
I was actually very impressed with quite a few contestants on American Idol tonight – some of whom I believe are ready for the radio – artists this season who seem to have a niche, know who they are, have unique voices and strong presence. Any guesses as to which contestants I believe are ready? [...]
