Who Was Eliminated From American Idol This Week?

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 Mentors American Idol Contestants

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 [...]

American Idol and Alicia Keys

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 [...]

American Idol Loses 2 Contestants

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 [...]

American Idol – Radio Ready Contestants?

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? [...]

Harassment on American Idol?

After watching American Idol tonight I wondered if anyone else was uncomfortable with a few of the comments made by Ryan Seacrest to contestants. In past weeks many inappropriate comments have been made by Kara DioGuardi about contestant Casey James – and Ryan has made those comments worse and even more awkward. I thought we [...]

Miley Cyrus Mentors American Idol Contestants?

I’m not sure why Miley Cyrus was brought in as a “mentor” for American Idol contestants. Perhaps the thrill of meeting a star and getting a younger skewed audience for tonight’s show was the reason producers brought Miley on board. However, she did not seem to mentor or give much advice. In my opinion the [...]

American Idol’s Top 12 — Too Vanilla?

What do you think of American Idol’s Top 12 this year? 2010… I just had a comment on a previous post that the contestants seem to lack diversity. As they introduced the contestants… actually it was a bit skewed to 9 white contestants, 2 black contestants, and 1 Latino. I did think that the talent [...]
