Wahl Kin & Friends...American Idol

Four years ago, after watching American Idol with a group of loyal experts (all females), I began taking notes of their opinions and writing a short synopsis of their thoughts...sort of a program to help me understand what to expect to happen the next night...elimination Wednesday. MY ADVICE: "TAKE ONE DAY AT A TIME!" That's it...pretty simple. In birth, death, illness, relationships, problems, all of life...Take one day at a time.

FINAL 12...WEEK #1...Tuesday...MARCH 13, 2007

FINAL 12...WEEK #1...OPENING NIGHT:

American Idol started the competition this evening with the men...Ho Hum...Take your break early. Go get another beer. This is a waste of time. The good news is that Idol has given us an early warning as to how our evening is going to go. Odd numbers are the men. No need to watch. I realize there are teeny boppers out there and let us not forget the women, who have been spoiled by past years competitions, and are hoping for some guy for whom to root. As they state in the Tuna commercials..."Sorry Charlie, not good enough for Starkist."

Because I write this blog, I was not able to cut and run (a viable Idol men's strategy), and was forced to stay and have my ears decimated by the Idol men's voices and the incorrect politics of the American Idol Administration. As a point of fact, if I were an Idol man in today's competition, I would be looking for a woman's garb to wear to hide my identity...THE MEN CANNOT SING AND THIS IS A SINGING COMPETITON!!!

Contestants #1, #3, #5, #7 #9 #11 were all men...At first blush I would say this was odd.

#1...Brandon Rogers (Really Bad) #3...Chris Sligh (The personality we saw in the auditions has disappeared. He sung O.K., but tonight the producers convinced him to take off his glasses. What will they do next? Cut his hair! Chris has sold out to the "man." He got here with his wit and personality and without it he is gone just like the rest of the men. #5...Sanjaya (Really terrible, but watch out for Sanjaya...the guy seems to get the teeny boppers vote and hangs around when the entire world knows he needs to be gone) #7...Phil Stacey (He did well for a bad singer, but he is still not good and his eyes still bug out and scare the little children. His bald head is not too sexy either. I like Phil, but I think he may show up on Perverted Justice one day...he looks like a reptile).
#9...Blake Lewis (He rearranged a Motown song and beat boxed it his way. He is really likeable, but is still a guy who they tell us can sing, but really now, can he?) #11...Chris Richards (Justin Timberlake wantabe that seems like a really nice guy who can't sing, and has a pleasant personality. Paula and Randy can't applaud him enough...typical for these two fools. Simon nailed it on the head..."Dreaduful"...

In fact, Simon summed up the men this year with that one word...DREADFUL!!!

My prediction is that the back-up singer Brandon Rogers may be gone, but the voters never throw him out and he qualifies almost every week. I think America is getting sick of giving Chris Sligh so many chances so don't be surprised to see the "sell out" in the bottom three and possibly out. His performances have all been lousy for quite some time. I know I am sick of him and the women have been so spectacular why waste any time dialing his overrated number?

You readers will insist that Sanjaya Malakar is Bye Bye Birdie, but Sanjaya has fooled you before. This is why I take the time to write this blog. His hair this evening was interesting! In previous voting on Dial Idol he was always in the top 3 or 4 and I suspect he will be the top vote getter again this evening for the men. There is some sick reason that people keep voting for him. Hawaii loves people that praise the Islands and their voting block may be the most powerful that votes.

I just don't see any of the girls leaving when they are competing with these oddballs. However, the competition for votes among themselves may cause one of them to end up in the bottom 3...I call it American Idol Producer Math!!!

GIRLS: 2-4-6-8 who do we appreciate...THE GIRLS! THE GIRLS! THE GIRLS!

I am not going to waste your time with comments by Paula or Randy. Paula may have been higher or drunker tonight. She cried a bit more than I remember. However, she is generally a show in herself. Randy appeared to be fatter and uglier than usual this evening. Simon was the same.

The real competition began this evening with #2 Melinda Doolittle...WOW.

#4...Gina Glocksen...She is one of the two "White Chicks" left in the game and she did O.K. Simon loves attractive women and would never say anything bad about Gina.

#6...Haley Scarnato...She barely made it into the final 12 and was treated the rudest and most unkind by the judges coming into the final 12. She is the final "White Chick" in the competition and was so much sexier and prettier than Antonella Barba that she was voted into the final 12 in an upset over Antonella last week. She made a good song choice and although she did not sing as well as she would have liked, Simon liked her stage presence (translation...she was sexy and good looking) so he praised her for the first time ever...This guarantees that she will be more confident next week (and there will be a next week because the guys are so bad).

#8...Lakisha Jones...She is always very good. Melinda Doolittle is still the favorite, but watch out for Lakisha...she is lurking and she has a spectacular voice and a very likeable personality and a great story. However, even if she doesn't win, she will finish in the top 2/3 and get a great recording contract...SHE WINS EITHER WAY!!! We will be happy for her.

#10...Stephanie Edwards...This 19 year old from Savannah continues to pick the wrong songs. In the past weeks, Dial Idol said she was always the last place vote getter or the second to last place vote getter for the women (75% accurate and in her case they were wrong each week). Tonight she did the same thing...CHOSE ANOTHER BAD SONG!!! This time she is singing in the Final 12. Granted, she is singing against some really lousy oddball men so she should be safe, but week after week after week after week, she chooses terrible songs. I don't care how good her voice is...America ain't gonna vote for her...PERIOD! Up until now, there were some girls that got less votes or Idol producers kept her in...who knows?

I like this girl and she is from Georgia...I don't like her as much as Lakisha, Melinda, or Jordin...but I like her. Based on Dial Idol preliminary results this evening (preliminary results only...not final) she is in last place for the women and bottom three with several hours of calculations to go.

#12...Jordin Sparks...This young lady did very well this evening and Dial Idol prelimary voting has her behind only Melinda, Lakisha and...Drum Roll please...Sanjaya...in 4th place as of midnight...

The end!
