Hi Everyone:
Sorry for the lateness of this Review but we had snow here in New England and I wasn’t feeling well on Friday so here I am on Monday giving you a report that’s ’stale’! Sorry for the delay.
28M people voted – WOW! that’s a whole lotta votes.
The Judges had a little banter back and forth with Ryan and then we had a black and white trip pics of the Top 24 with Daughtry’s song, What About Now, playing in the background.
The group then did a melody of 60s songs, dressed in 60s outfits! It was fun.
Commercial: Rapper 50Cent is conducting a Symphony Orchestra. It was very clever – product: Vitamin Water!
Commercial: Moment of Truth on Monday night. Looks very ‘disturbing’!
OK, down to business:
Guys will be first.
Ryan calls Garrett Haley up…Bye, Bye Garrett. Trouble is, we have to sit thru these ‘awful’ kids singing their song again! TORTURE!
Something new they are doing this year, the contestant’s family are up in the balcony watching! Painful.
Let’s do the Girls:
First, they show the girls performing (they did that with the guys too).
Ryan calls up Amy Davis (no surpise here). Bye, Bye Amy. Oh boy, here she goes singing her song….
Two more will be going home shortly plus, as Randy says, “Paula will shake what Mama Abdul gave her!”
Paula’s video: Dance Like There’s No Tomorrow. Randy is on guitar. What can I say? Do you think they used enough fans? (which Simon commented on afterwards). Simon said, “She represents every color of the universe!!!”
Let’s say Goodbye to another girl:
Ryan brings up Amanda (the rockin’ nurse) and Joanne (the + size model)
It’s Joanne who is going home tonight. Pretty girl but not talented enough to win this competition.
Comment: Everyone’s using “amazing” umpteen times again tonight.
OK, one more Guy to go:
Commercial: Bobby Flay (chef) has a bisquit and jam contest going on. Boy do they look good….I’m hungry now!
Alrighty: Ryan calls up Colton and Chikezie. It’s Bye Bye Colton. Nice kid. I understand from my friend Patti who said she saw him on a talk show the next morning, that he has scholarships for Political Science for grad school. He’d like to be a politician. Good for him.
Well America made good choices this week. Let’s see what next week (meaning this week) will bring.
I have to throw in one more comment: What’s with the crying? This is a competition. There’s only ONE WINNER. Get a grip folks. Can you imagine what it’s going to be like once we get down to the Top 12!!!!
Talk to you later in the week. Joanie
