OT-American Idol

Daughter is sick...but I HAVE to say...what was up with the women on American Idol tonight??

The clothes were horrible.

I swear...I laughed out loud when I saw Kelly. She looked ridiculous. And Paris and Katherine...neither wore outfits that made them look good.

And Ace? Wow...that just may be the performance that gets him knocked out of the race.

Bucky. Not a big fan, but he did a great job tonight!! He was the only one I felt like "owned" his song.

Whatcha all think??

I did not like Kelly's look but it kind of went with the Queen look, I must say I thought she sung well, you know at first I did not like Kelly but she is growing on me, some of it may have to do with her background, she had a rough one!! But I still must say Chris is still my favorite: -)

In my opinion Bucky has got to go. Something about him I can't stand. Kelly gets under my skin too. Is she really that dumb???

I thought Taylor did well tonight.

But I think Ace will go home tomorrow night.

I think Paris has the best voice by far. But Queen is not her thing, or anyones elses tonight. Chris is a good singer, but I don't really care for that nazel sound in his voice.

Ok, I am an American Idol junkie, too. Chris has always been my pick. And tonight he didn't let me down. His voice and how he owns the stage, it's like he has done it forever. The final 2 have got to be Paris and Chris. Kelly may surprise me though.

It's my opinion that Bucky will go home tomorrow night.

For me, Elliot is the most over-rated... why the judges praise so highly his vocals week after week escapes me. He's alright... but not THAT alright!!!

It's my hope that Bucky, Elliot, and Ace are the next three to say their "Goodbyes."

I think Ace might go home tonight. He really messed up on his song. Kelly was cute at the beginning with her naive attitude, but know she's getting on my nerves. I still hope either Taylor or Paris win!!

Thought Kelly looked silly but did a good "performance" with her song.

Thought Bucky & Chris did well. Katherine & Elliott did okay.

Hated the performance of Paris, Ace & Taylor

Wanting either Ace or Bucky to go home this week.

Regards,
Brandy

Our cable went out yesterday afternoon and stayed off until a little after 9:00! Talk about frustrating.

As a fan of Queen I was saddened by the fact that the remaning members stooped so low for an opportunity to expose people to the fact that they are still around. While the former lead singer of Bad Company has a very good voice, Freddy Mercury was so distinctive and so dynamic, both in his singing and his physical presence, one wonders if anyone can do him justice.


As for the performances, I actually enjoyed Bucky for the first time all season. Ace should go. Katherine sounded awful. Paris sounded good, but what's with that outfit (blech!). If Kelly is as dumb as she seems, I am very sad for her. Taylor is a lot of fun, but will not win. Eliott can sing, but cannot dance to save his life. Chris' vocals were terriffic, but it would have been more fun to hear a song like one vision, princes of the universe or bicycle race from him.

I actually liked Kelly last night, and I usually don't (I hate country music - must be why I liked her last night). I loved Chris and Taylor last night. I love Elliot, but I did not like his song last night very much.

Edited to add: I loved Katharine last night, too.

Adam,

Agree...I actually thought to myself "Why is Queen on tour?" I just didn't see the point w/o Freddy.

Regards,
Brandy

I know. I miss Freddy Mercury - he was awesome.

I'm not a Kelly fan and I thought she should have gone the week they did Stevie Wonder music. (She was horrible that week.) But she did do okay...she just looked laughable is all. Russell and I think she snuck into Chris' room to see what he was wearing and tried to be as "Chris" as possible.

Not happy with Katherine. She looked bad. Her pitch was bad, and I thought it was tacky to do the song she did cause she only got to do it cause Mandisa was knocked out the week before. (That was what Mandisa was going to sing...and she would have done it MUCH MUCH better!)

I hope the final 2 are Chris and Taylor. Paris and Kelly both have the pipes, but they both come off phoney to me. Kelly just doesn't usually "get" the song and Paris...well it's like she's playing dress up all the time.

I like Bucky...but admittedly he's not the strongest singer. I just like him personally.

Yes, I like Bucky and Elliot personally - and I do love Elliot's voice but I think he is just not memorable enough and does not have star quality.

I love Chris and Taylor and would be happy with either of them winning I would buy their CD in a second.

I want Ace to be gone tonight.

Big Idols fan! Love Chris and Taylor. Hate Ace and the way he stares into the camera with his so called "bedroom" eyes. Kelly has become quite annoying with her stupidity. How did she make it through school? Katharine is getting skinner every week. Looks like they are trying to make her more marketable, just like they did with Clarkson. As for the rest they seem to be ok but do not stand out.
