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 – Performs Songs from the Cinema

Tonight’s American Idol competition began with a spotlight on Quentin Tarantino as the Idols were to perform songs from the cinema. Interesting choice for someone to mentor the contestants. I think having a director assist the Idols in the whole performance aspect would be hugely beneficial. It will be interesting to see how Quentin’s feedback [...]

Predicting the Winner for American Idol 2009

I’ve been watching Twitter for the past few days tracking the contestants of American Idol. Based on what has been happening there, I would have to predict Adam Lambert as the next American Idol. Adam is mentioned at least twice as many times as Danny Gokey, and Kris Allen is getting up there in mentions [...]

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 – 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 Goes Country

I think some of the American Idol contestants will do very well singing country. I’m not sure how Adam Lambert will twist a country song to his style, but I feel sure he’ll do it. Anyway, here are my reviews from tonight’s American Idol show. Michael Sarver: Garth Brooks “Ain’t Goin’ Down”. I just don’t [...]
