AMERICAN IDOL....Season 11

OMG!!!

Hey ladies I agree I also think that Jessica should have gone home. I will be very surprised if she doesn't end up back in the bottom 3 next week as well. I did read today Hollie got the sympathy vote. I also did not like James song he screamed way too much but but that is what he was known for last year.

Hope you are all right and if is Skylar and Colton standing at the end. Love my Skylar!!

Voters?

Judges?

O.K. Great. They "saved" Jessica last night, and no one goes home. Whoopee!

But next week, TWO contestants go home. And is Jessica's "save" permanent? What if she's in the bottom 3 again next week? They may have wasted their save.

The reality is that SOMEONE has to go home. There can only be one American Idol.

And unfortunately,  it's never, ever, really been about who the best singer was.....

(We loved James Durbin when he was a contestant because he had overcome so many challenges, and was from Santa Cruz. Didn't like the way he tried to imitate Adam Lambert, though.  Last night - OMG! The only way we could watch him was with the sound off!!!  Most of the notes were o.k., but the screaming part was awful.)

So does anyone understand how this "save" works, and how it will affect the two people going home next week?

As I recall, one time the judges did a save and the person was voted off again the next week.  

If this was really a singing competition we would hear little about the singers personal life. It is far more a personality competition. Jessica last evening said two times, "I have worked hard all my life."  On this show the reaction to that would be, so what, so has every one else.  She just hasn't developed a public personality. No fault of hers, she is 16!  She is probably protected by her family and has spent a lot of time on her music. I have little feeling for her, I don't know her or identitfy with her. How can she get a fan base like this? So even though Randy said at the end that she has the best voice EVER it doesn't shine through. It is just the wrong show, venue, platform. 

Personally I like PP, probably because he wore what he wanted to. The rebel in me identifying. 

I enjoy the show but it is messed up this year. 

James Durbin was singing his style, not the tunes made available on AI last year. I liked him better on the show. I think this is true of all the former AI, they go back to what they like. Thus I am a huge Musical Theatre fan and so I liked Constantine Maroulis, he was a musical theatre performer and is once again. Same for Adam Lambert even though he is doing rock (I think) now I saw him in Wicked before AI, just as chorus.

I liked James in the beginning last year but as time wore on so did he on my ears and nervescwith his screaming. I don't like Heavy metal at all. As for Jessica she has the personality of a turnip and stage presence of one too. Poor Hollie is cute and sweet but she needs more experience or the right producer to turn her on the right path. She could be easily molded. PP is lime Taylor Hicks in some respects he's gonna do his own music regardless. This could eventually hurt him or make him a lot of money. The most marketable are definitely Colton, Skylar and possibly Joshua (if he's willing to step outside the gospel realm and do something else also). I guess we'll have to wait and see

I think 2 ;o)

I still think Jessica deserves to stay, she has a powerful voice.  The best save for me......rooting for her or PP...except SKYLAR that irritates my ears whenever I hear her sang.....can't wait to see her go....
