American Idol Season 8 ----SPOILERS INSIDE-----

[beeniesmom]

I don't like the new format either. It's stupid.
So all the people who call in and spend hours trying to get through will be undermined anyway.

America doesn't decide...
In the end, the winner is who the judges want.

I do think that the ones who went home were the ones that deserved to.
They were splendid singers but certainly not the best of the bunch.

I don't mind the whole concept of the judge's "save" so much since they just get to use it one time, but I agree that it really isn't necessary to ask each time. If and when they decide to use it, make the announcement then, but otherwise, just let the contestants have one moment of disappointment instead of two.

I agree with how horrible it is to be rejected twice. I mean, it's not like they couldn't tell the judges who is "going home" before and then they decide if they want to keep them, privately and then surprise them.
And they can only do this saving thing up until there are 5 people left. Or at least that's how I understood it. I was totally confused when he was explaining it too. I thought they could save as many people as they want up until there were 5 people left. I didn't realize they could only save ONE person the entire show.
It doesn't matter even with this new format, the best singer doesn't win. It is the most popular person that wins.

I was sad to see Jasmine and Jorge leave last night. But I think this season will be full of disappointments.

WHAT? Jorge too? I was so tired last night, I went to bed at 9:00 and missed the whole show.

I had the TV tuned into the FOX local affiliate to hear the local news.

I was out of the room when they did the recap of AI- not a fan of the show but I heard that they had the talentless kanye west on the show.

God, what was he singing?

It made me laugh.

Sorry, I can't help you Richard. When he was coming up, I left the room, after turning the tv wayyyyy down. Does anybody like that arrogant @#&*#$?

Apparently the young ladies watching the show like him enough to lean and reach toward him when he came near, but I think they like everybody! I did listen to his whole "song," and and it literally took the whole thing for me to figure out he was singing/saying "heartless" as I kept thing it was "hot and" and "cold" would follow. Turns out the whole song is called "Heartless." So that is what he "performed."

He's sold a gazillion albums/songs, so lotsa people must like his music enough to pay money for it.
