Tonight was the results show, but first, what was up with Paula’s outfit? She looked like she was decorated for Christmas! She had on a necklace, a flower, and a scarf all around her neck.
There were some funny viewer calls like the woman that wanted to know the difference between what Simon said [...]

Tonight the mentor was Mariah Carey. I thought I liked some Mariah Carey songs, but unfortunately, it was none of the ones the Idols picked tonight. And. one song wasn’t even originally a Mariah Carey song. Most of the audience and Idols probably don’t know, but “Without You” was originally done by [...]

And, I am NOT happy about it AT ALL! The only positive things from this episode were seeing cameos by Eddie Izzard (one of my favorite comedians) and Stanford from “Sex and the City.” I still cannot believe Michael was on the bottom. I thought his “Dream On” wasn’t bad, even though Randy and Simon [...]

Tonight was not an elimination night for American Idol, but a night to give. This star studded spectacular included almost every celebrity there is today. There was Snoop Dog, George Lopez, wrestler HHH, NASCAR driver Jimmy Johnson, and Maria Shriver. Ben Stiller had a funny gig about trying to raise money with his album of [...]

Tonight’s theme for AI was inspirational songs. Michael started out the night with “Dream On.” I loved it, but Randy said it was just “awight.” Simon said it was a very good performance, but he preferred when Michael made bluesy/R&B song choices better. Syesha took on “Believe” by Fantasia. Randy said he felt no special connection [...]

The show started with the top 9 singing “9 to 5.” Frankly, I would have rather heard Dolly sing it, but we would hear from her later in the show. Very quickly, Michael, David A., and Carly were tall told they were safe.
The Clark Brothers, who won “Next Great American Band” performed. After that, David [...]

Tonight, the Idols took on Dolly Parton. I don’t know what it is, but I just love Dolly. And not only is she a good singer, she is a very, very talented songwriter (as Simon attested later in the show). Although I must say, she needs to stop the plastic surgery before she turns into [...]

After thirty million votes, America got a surprise for the AI bottom three. Kristy Lee, who I felt it would have been a bit sad if she were eliminated this week since she did so well for the first time everc, was NOT in the bottom three. I think this is her first time NOT [...]

This really is a really good season. I realized that tonight as I watched because it is really getting difficult for me to say who should go home. The theme tonight was singing a song from the year they were born. Ramielle opened it up with “Alone” (1987). She was fighting [...]

It must suck to be the last person eliminated before the final ten (who get to make extra money by going on tour). But, if it does suck, you really couldn’t tell by Amanda’s reaction. Maybe it is because she is a rocker, but she was cool as a cucumber when it was announced her [...]
