American Idle!

I don't think I'll ever stop watching AI. I always say that I will, but I always know that I won't. I have a strict honesty policy & honor code regarding singing contests.

I missed Wednesday's episode. I was in Newport Beach dining with family & friends! However, when I got back to my friend's place, I logged onto his computer to see who had gotten voted off.

No more weekly boob viewings for me.

Maybe I'll just watch AI topless.

Okay, was it just me, or did Barry Gibb seem like he was totally blase and just completely inconvenienced by being a mentor? Oh, our apologies, Mr. Gibb! Shame on us for not realizing the BeeGees are in such high demand these days. Once your traveling County Fair schedule of performances clears, then can we count on you, Barry? Sheesh!

I dug Blake's obscure BeeGee song choice. I actually find myself humming it. Scary? Maybe. I still love Blake, though! He has such a 311 vibe to him when he's not beat-boxing his way through absolutely every song imaginable.

I still think LaKisha is an amazing singer. I wish her nothing but success. However, now I'm splitting my votes between Blake & Jordin. Melinda is simply amazing as well, but I'm a Blake n' Jordin' gal!

I like Blake, but I think last week he crossed the line into self parody. Melinda all the way. I guess.

And you'd be right! After he received accolades for his Bon Jovi week performance (which I thought was completely hip & unique) you just knew that he was going to attempt the beat-box sound effects with every single song from this point on. Unfortunately, I can see Blake beat-boxing his way through Amazing Grace or Ave Maria. Sometimes, a song just needs a beautiful voice, not scratches and echo effects. Next week, I'm sure we'll see Blake accompanying his song choice with sounds from the zoo.

Once in awhile? Awesome. Every single time? Notsomuch.

Well I agree on Barry Gibb.. I just felt he look like he was going to have a massive heart attack on stage when he was singing.. he looked like hell!
