Tim, Paige, Andrew, Didi - Who's going home?

Tim just wanted to have fun -
Paige admits a poor performance -
Didi just doesn't know what the judges want -
Andrew thinks Simon's mean and he knows who he is as an artist -
We've seen these foolhardy attitudes before -
But it's Paige going home. Hope she gets another chance at fame even though she didn't do well on Idol...

Hoping for Wow Wear

Using the Little Miss Perfect metaphor - I'm hoping the contestants will use some Wow Wear and some Wow Songs tonight if we're going to put up with two hours again.
Lee Dewyse - they dolled him up - looking good. The music was too loud for his voice, but he seemed more confident tonight. The girls will like him. The judges did, except for Simon.
Paige - Guess everyone is getting Wow Wear! She looks really good tonight. Pitchy! S.O. says his ears are bleeding. Even Randy thinks she's terrible and so does everyone else. She'll probably go this week unless there's someone else even worse.
Tim - not moving with the song, other than sliding on the floor.Sang it too slow. We don't like Tim in this house. Doesn't sound like the judges did either.
Aaron- thought he was better last week. But he looks better all floofed up and he did pretty well considering he had tonsillitis.
Crystal - fabulous. She gets better and better. She deserves to win.
Mike- good rendition but not sure it's something special. He's a bit too cocky for my liking.
Andrew - Heard it through the grapevine...too somber. He has a good voice but not exciting enough to be an Idol. He could be a goner too.
Katy - Big Girls Don't Cry - well, we'll see about that. At least it's contemporary. And she's pretty good tonight. Her voice really came out. I forgot that's she was a teenager too.
Casey - he's easy on the eyes. I liked it - lots of energy. But Simon was right, it wasn't anything original. He looks like a rock star, a little like Wow Wear.
Didi- You're no good. Hmmm....her movements didn't ring true. Her voice is good but why all the old songs? When the contestants say "I just wanted to have fun," then they really aren't listening to the judges. Too bad.
Siobbhan - she's so cool. That was awesome. She rocked. And her style is definitely WOW and there wasn't hardly any wow all night.

I might regret the comments about Tim...


All by myself tonight. No family members saying, "C'mon, write that down after giving me one of their snarky comments about a contestant. Okay, I have included some of them. Like last night about Tim's Jesus smile and lady hands - that wasn't me. I'm much nicer than that but succumbed to writing it because it was funny and I was under pressure. So tonight it's just me. I've eaten my Jenny Craig brownie. I'm not fond of elimination night because they stretch it out to an entire hour of drivel and bring back some of the less formidable former Idol stars, like David Cook. Didn't like him then, don't like him now.
Bottom three: Paige, Tim, Lacey - I think that's about right. I predict Tim. I was wrong!
Kesha - what's her name? What a bunch of no talents with fancy props and sparkly lights. Wanna be Black Eyed Peas perhaps?
Lacey's going home - cute girl but her voice wasn't anything special. Will they save her or wait for someone else better, like Lee or Casey. Looks like she's gone.

The Shorthand Version-Ryan settle down


Siobhan was really interesting and very good.

Aaron was excellent-his version of Angie was really great.

Crystal as always first rate.

Lee was pretty good.

Mike, lovely person and good voice. Not so great.

Casey-really good and cute as heck.

Now, Ryan, what the heck? Do you guys have some hack producer making up stunts for each night? Was this like Ellen kissing Simon? Kara, having an emotional meltdown over Mike?

Ryan you are always such a good guy, but I tell ya, Simon came off taking the high ground.

For God's sake, people, could we get back to the show?

Rolling Stone Night

I'm watching the snacks - kid and s.o. eating mini drumsticks while I enjoy a lemon cake from Jenny Craig.
Overall, the contestants screwed up the Stones - made their songs ballady, slow, sentimental and sleepy. The standouts:
Casey James - sang it well, plays great guitar. The best so far but he could do better. Simon agrees.
Sibbhon - Paint it Black. Wow, what a note. The best so far. Simon agrees. Her outfit is interesting too - the prom-ish dress with the boots and a tattoo on her shoulder. She is so unique. I even like to listen to her talk.
Paige - pretty good Honky Tonk Woman. More rock than anyone else, more original Rolling Stones, but she's still not one of my favorites.
Aaron Kelly - Angie. If I close my eyes and don't let the kid-ness cloud my opinion, he's really good. He put a lot of emotion into the song. Second best behind Sibbhon tonight.
Crystal - the best for last.You Can't Always Get What You Want. You should get to be the winner of this competition, girl. You are amazing! And better and better every week.
The rest fall way behind:
Michael - Miss You. Changing it too much so you can't even recognize the tune. Lots of theatrics but not much substance. Too showoffy.
Didi B - too ballady, too slow. Playing With Fire.
Lacey Brown - RubyTuesday, like her voice. Pretty good but much too sleepy.
Andrew Garcia - what's with his mom? She looked like she was in a coma. Just a bit flat and boring. Ellen says it was his best but she doesn't really know what she's talking about.
Can't wait for Crystal...
Katy Stevens - floofy fluffy dress, singing Rolling Stones. She's ruined Wild Horses, making it into a soppy ballad. Simon gave her that finger thing he does.
Tim Urban - goofy Jesus smile and lady hands. We don't like Tim. Why slower and slower? With a reggae beat?? Simon gave Tim the finger too. Hmmm... Kind of a dope, not the Randy kind.
Lee Dewyse- Beast of Burden. Don't know.. guess I'm used to the real thing. Randy thinks it's dope. It was just a little too soft, not rough enough. But I like him. I can see him at the end.
Those who deserve to get the boot: Tim, Katy, Andrew, Michael, maybe Paige.







Lilly is Off Idol? Big Mistake

Miss Bunny says: Sorry I am sick with the flu and also have very little to say except, "Why was Lilly voted off?"
She had one bad song...that's it. Now there are some very forgettable girls that are still on the show and I honestly don't remember their names. One dark hair, young, one blond girl...sweet, but boring. It's a shame, Lilly and I hope you get a record contract. You are really talented.

Kara, what the heck? by Miss Bunny


Well, the last two nights have been better mainly because Idol is down to 1 hour shows. Those 2 hour shows nearly killed me.

First off, could somebody tell me why Ellen was sitting on Simon's lap kissing him? It wasn't funny, it was awful. I guess she's trying to make her mark or get attention, but please don't do that. It was disgusting.


And then by the end of the show, Kara is sobbing over Mike's song. Now I heard the song and I just don't get it. Also, Kara, I hate to tell you, but you are considered the stable one on the show. It was Paula's job to act all loopy and disoriented with mood problems. I loved her, but ya know the girl had emotional issues and clapped weird.


Kara, we have learned to depend on you as the one who has good advice and knows what she's talking about. Please don't flip out.


Okay, on to the shows. Lee was wonderful, hunky Casey was pretty good, I love little Aaron, and Tim is lovely. The girls: Crystal is always the best, Siobhan is good, Lily bombed, and that little curly blond girl, geesh. Have you ever seen the video of Carole King singing that song? You missed it by a mile.I don't know why the girls think singing in a little girl voice is attractive. And there were two girls that I don't remember seeing before. Simon is right: be memorable! But in a good way!
