American Idol thread....
yes, I know you all hate the idea. Cope.

Finally, Scott lost, but I was surprised. After last night, Scott deserved to stay, and Anthony deserved to lose.

Scott impressed me last night. He should've lost last week, but to everybody's surprise, he was in the top 3. Go figure.

2. Scott's gone.
And all was right with the world again.

Next week, it's time to kick out the one-trick pony known as Bo.

10. From your fingers to the Universe's eyes! Although her voice
is technically very good, I find Carrie stiff and her voice gets on my nerves.

Between Bo and Vonzelle, it's a coin toss for me.

33. I'm serious, though!
That yodeling stuff drives me absolutely bats!

I'm mad she's not on that Country Music Idol or whatever is on CMT... she needs to be on THAT show.

Oh how I loathe hearing her sing that awful stuff. x(

6. Why does Anthony have staying power?
Music, emotion, good karma with the judges. But I think he'll go down next week.

11. Anthony appeals to very very young girls, and that's why he's still
standing. Not unlike Clay Aiken.

26. A few little words
Edited on Thu May-05-05 11:34 AM by Mike Daniels
Pre-teen girls and their moms. He's safe, harmless and kinda cute in a puppy dog/ bunny type of fashion.

Seriously, I can't think of any other demographic he would appeal to where he could stay in the competition this long.

Looking forward to the end game, Bo and Vonzelle are the only two I can see making a solid career out of winning.

Carrie, while she has a nice singing voice, has no stage personality or presence. I could see her doing fine as a featured backing vocalist on someone else's album or concert tour but I don't see her breaking it big on her own.

But then again, if anyone told me Scott would make it this far I'd have told them to put away the weed so what do I know?

9. constantine is my Idol. The fix is in!
good to see Scott go, the bastard. he and federov should have gone a long long time ago. I am not watching anymore,(connie boycott), so I can't comment on who should or shouldn't have gone this week- I wouldn't mind if bo or carrie won now, but it should have been carrie and connie in the final two!

I know we could get a thread going that would beat Dupe if we wanted to...even if it was just us talking about Mr. Wonderful! We'd have to be careful, and have too much fun though.:-)

43. I didn't say I wanted to marry him...
I'd like a short term relationship, preferably at night. All night. Several nights.

More for me if you don't want him!

Constantine back, all would be right with the world...almost. :hi: ;)

21. I thought it was a shame when Greg fired Kira..she was a good bassist.
Sure, Henry was flogging the spotlight, what with his tattoos and long hair, but that was no reason to go berserk!

And Anthony was not a patch on Bill...or even Robo!

24. LOL -- good one
I didn't want to watch the Dateline special, but did anyway. I was surprised Corey had enough evidence backing him up that I believe him. How stupid can she be to do this? From the interpretation I saw on Countdown of the laws put into place after the quiz show scandals of the 50s,if this is proven, Paula won't be the only one to go. They'll have to shut down the whole show.

I can't wait for Anthony to be gone next week -- I don't know how he and Scott made it this far. Nadia was robbed. The right three were definitely on top last night. I like all of them, but I think Vonzelle is my favorite -- she's so much more versatile than either Carrie or Bo. Carrie will make a great country singer.

27. I agree. He sucked last week, but this week he was actually decent.
Anthony sucked this week. He should've went. But does it really matter? Neither will come in 1st or 2nd for that matter. It will be Bo and Carrie. (I don't know which will win, though)
