American Idol 2011

I too was glad to see her go home last night. I thought the judges wasted a wild card on her in the first place!
I think Rodriguez (can't think of her first name) should be next.
Pia's voice is OUT of this WORLD!!
I think Lauren has great potential and I love to watch James, he's SOOO into what he's singing 100%!

You know, I wasn't that excited about Pia at first. But she really does have an amazing voice!! Last night in the group performance I thought "she could win this!!". I was sad to see that it was not sang live. At least I don't think it was. Only because when Jacob sang he didn't sing along with the sound track...oops! Also, you couldn't even hear Scotty during the group song.

Anyway, yes, I was very happy to see Ashthon go. Now I like everyone else, so its going to be hard each week to see someone go home.

So, did P Diddy change his name AGAIN? Or is that just his tour name? I didn't even know who Ryan was talking about until I saw him on stage. The song he did last night.....the best part was the girl on the piano.

I missed the beginning of the show last night so I didn't get to see the group performance. I was also surprised to hear Ryan say that Casey was in the hospital. What happened? Does any one know? Hopefully it's nothing serious. I couldn't tell you who P Diddy is or whatever he's calling himself. I'm not into music like this at all. I really enjoyed Adam's performance though.

They just said Casey was sick, and hoped to be back soon, they didn't give any specifics. Oh, and Ms. Rodriquez's first name is Karen!

Okay thanks. I also don't know why everyone thinks that Karen is so great. She doesn't do anything for me and I find her song choices very boring. If Ashthon hadn't been the one to go, I was hoping that it then would've been Karen.

[Karen]

I think Karen Rodriguez is nice enough, and she doesn't offend me in any way, but I know that music, like art, is all very subjective as to what each person considers good. I don't see her among the final contestants, but there are a few others I am pretty blah about, too.

For those who were wondering, "Casey Abrams was absent from Thursday's show due to receiving blood transfusions for his ulcerative colitis."

I am watching the Belgian version of Idol 2011, called "Idool 2011"
We are down to 9 singers now

So wha did everyone think of this week's show? I didn't get a chance to watch either until last night, but was not impressed by Naima's song or her "Jamaican accent," which sounded very fake, even if it it somewhere in her heritage. It's sad because I want her to do well ... I also didn't like the job they did arranging - cutting to bits - the lyrics for Tiny Dancer for Stephano, and thought that, while Paul seems to have a good time, he's just not a good singer. I thought Lauren Alaina did a really good job, she could have made it very corny but didn't, and Casey did a much better job this week, thank goodness, I think he's very talented, but had kinda lost his musicality ...

As for the eliminations, I was surprised that Paul stayed, but not surprised at the two that did go home, but seemed kind of inevitable. I am sure someone will sign Thia up for something very quickly, she seems a "made for Disney" character, sweet, pretty, great voice ... and young.

And who did what to Jennifer Lopez' hair? Good gracious - it looked like it got teleported in from 1972 and plunked down on her skull! And, by the way, I thought Steven Tyler's comment about Lauren's dress was almost as funny as her reaction - she seems like a genuinely nice person.
