American Idol

OK fine…. I decided to review the women’s performances from last night’s American Idol… (I was going to wait till the final 12 were picked, but… )

For the most part- last night was boring. The contestants really need to learn what they are playing for in the end…. They are trying to become a pop star in today’s musical world… They aren’t shooting for the retirement home crowd… You gotta appeal to teenie-boppers. So… how many of last night’s performances did that? Yawn….

Katharine McPhee
All in Love is Fair – Stevie Wonder

Good voice, but… Zzzzzzzz…..

Kinnik Sky
Gretchen Wilson – Here for the Party

Was Kinnik Sky a man at some point in her life? I’m just asking… Kinda like bad karaoke…

Lisa Tucker
Who’s Lovin’ You – Jackson Five

I think she has the best voice in the competition… She needs to sing something more towards pop and leave this stuff behind.

Melissa McGhee
Reba McIntyre – Why Haven’t I Heard From You

Sexy raspy voice, nice chest, but she’s scary looking.

Heather Cox
Mariah Carey – Hero

This weeks lowest vote getter.

Brenna Gethers
Donna Summers – Last Dance
Another great Vote For The Worst performance! She is so bad, but it’s so funny to watch. I hope VFTW can keep her around for a long long time. (plus, I love seeing how upset she gets people)

Paris Bennett
Bette Midler – Wind Beneath My Wings

Paris- another big voice that needs to let go of the past and join the modern era.

Ayla Brown
Celine Dion – I Want You to Need Me

I may be alone- but I can’t stand this girl. She’s annoying, she’s not now and will never be a pop star, she just grates on my nerves. She has a nice voice, but please America… put her out of her misery soon!

Kellie Pickler
Bonnie Raitt – Something to Talk About

Kellie- I like the country girl thing… I love seeing the innocence- I just wish you’d figure out that the stage is larger than the little circle in the middle. If she learns to work the stage, she’s got a big future in front of her.

Mandisa
Cry – Faith Hill

Mandisa can sing. Boring song. She kind of made me think that I could see her leading a gospel choir…

OK… stretch, yawn… wonder why I sat down to watch this….

My picks for going home tonight?

Heather Cox
Kinnik Sky

There you have it… Tonight is the guys… let’s hope that they have learned that you need to do something to grab attention- not put your audience to sleep.
