Last chance belly dance. Hard to believe that both of the final contestants of this year’s American Idol are both only 24 years old. Holy cow that’s young. They both are going to have a great time for many years to come. As the last performance night of the season, there are three rounds in [...]
OMG…how much longer will this show drag on? I swear two years ago they had a season finale with four people on stage and just did the deed there. Look, I’m excited to finally see Crystal, Casey and Lee go mano y mano y mano, but do we need to have another week of this? [...]
Jamie Fox is this week’s mentor for songs from the movies. We’re down to the Final Four now. So tonight’s a big night. Jamie’s a great mentor and gives just the right push. You would think these contestants would want to blow it out of the box, especially with a big shot like Jamie around. [...]
This week we have Harry Connick Jr. (aww, my long-time crush) as mentor. He’s also generously offered his talent to work with the contestants as composer, writing arrangements and orchestrations for them too. What an awesome opportunity for them to work with someone so talented to pull their best sound and performance forward. They are [...]
Shania Twain is this week’s mentor and contestants are choosing songs from her songbook. How did she land that gig? Honestly, I know probably 2 of her songs. So I’m interested to see how they do.
Lee Dewyze “You’re Still the One” – Lee kicks off the show with one of the songs that I actually [...]
Songs of inspirations is this week’s theme and Alicia Keys is this week’s mentor. With this group of contestants I’m wondering if we’re going to be inspired at all. (Can I just say that Alicia Keys has to be one of the most BEAUTIFUL woman in the entire world. Holy cow.)
Casey James “Don’t Stop” (Fleetwood [...]
“My tongue is not as talented as yours,” says Ryan Seacrest to Adam Lambert during his in-show conversation. Let the gay rumors fly once again. Oh my! Adam is the guest mentor for Elvis Presley week. The showmanship bar needs to be raised and Adam’s the man to do it. Adam encouraged everyone to wake [...]
My favorite night for this season’s Top 9 – Lennon & McCartney. Randy was correct in his prediction of highs and lows, but the highs were predictable. Let’s start with the lows, however in the order of the performance.
Aaron “The Long and Winding Road” – Husband thinks that his stylist missed the marked with that [...]
Why does Usher have to wear sunglasses? I think that’s weird. Too cool for school? What else is weird? Simon asking Ellen to kiss her in the intro. But alas, let’s move on with the show.
Siobhan “Through the Fire” – sleepy for me, dawg. And the boots with the dress were strange, not cool, Randy. [...]
Tuesday’s show was about the Billboard weekly Hot 100 with Miley Cyrus as this week’s mentor. In the Miley introduction clip I don’t think it was mentioned how many hits she’s ever had on the Billboard Top 100. I get it; world wide sensation, hit TV show and a popular movie, but she has a [...]
