Adam Lambert – Almost Eliminated in American Idol?

We’re down to the top 5 for American Idol. Only 3 weeks away from the finale. I think at this point it could be any one’s game to win. I have to say that I was very glad they cut out the lipsyncing for the group number this week. It was really getting old. It’s [...]

American Idol – Top 5 Perform – Rat Pack

Well, I missed the show last night – so I’m going to watch the TiVo version and put in my review before watching the results show. I’ve heard good and bad about the performances, so I’ll be interested to see how it goes. Rat Pack Theme for the evening… I loved Jamie Foxx as a [...]

American Idol Update

So we lost Lil Rounds and Anoop Desai this week on American Idol. I was actually out of town and unable to watch or review the show until after the results were announced. Can anyone say they were surprised by the 2 eliminated this week? I have also been watching trends on both Twitter and [...]

American Idol Makes Idol History!

American Idol is coming closer to the end. Last night I predicted that the bottom three would include Anoop Desai, Lil Rounds, and Matt Giraud with Anoop going home. It looks like Adam Lambert got his hair cut. I actually like it! The show included an incredible performance by former AI contestant Jennifer Hudson. With [...]

American Idol – Top 8 Perform

The American Idol contestants sang songs from the years they were born. I loved seeing the baby photos of the American Idol judges. Randy was darling. I would have liked to have seen actual baby photos of Simon, but they put up photos of him as a young boy instead. (I didn’t watch in time [...]

American Idol – One more gone

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 [...]

American Idol – Top 9 Reviews

Well — American Idol contestants performed some of the most popular downloaded songs on iTunes. First, I have to comment about the performing order. I’m not sure how they select the order of contestants to perform, but obviously those who go later in the competition seem to have an advantage. Second, Simon — I love [...]

American Idol – What’s up with the Lip Syncing?

With over 36 million votes from last night it seems American Idol is still going strong. But what was up with the lip-syncing for the opening number. Totally cheesy. I wonder if they are just preparing the contestants for future concerts (jk). I don’t know if they were trying to use “studio” recording rather than [...]

Finally – American Idol Top 10 Recap

So I finally got the chance to review American Idol from Last night (while I’m TiVo-ing the results show from tonight). We’ll see how well I can do. American Idol celebrates Motown! Matt Giraud: “Let’s Get it On”. I loved Matt’s version of the song. Very soulful. I think he is really starting to shine. [...]

American Idol – Down to the Top 10

Well, obviously American Idol is not fixed as reported earlier by TV Guide. I was a little surprised that Allison Iraheta was in the bottom three, but having Michael Sarver and Alexis Grace in the bottom 2 was not that surprising. And very telling that Randy actually called Alexis by the wrong name. That has [...]
