American Idol is teetering toward inanity this season after a promising start.
The new judges who were so strong in the early episodes have evolved into boring cheerleaders with nothing to say.
The guest performers, including Diddy-Dirty Money, Fantasia, Sugarland, Jamie Foxx, Stevie Wonder, and The Black Eyed Peas, have been less than spectacular.
Everyone’s talking about how great this year’s contestants are, but that’s hype. They’re good but not great, just like most other seasons.
That deep-voiced country kid with the smug look on his face makes me want to puke. Stefano is about as exciting as sap running down a tree. The Rod Stewart wannabe is a one-trick pony who should have been put down a long time ago. The hot girls have been voted off, presumably by the nation’s teen girls who drive the voting on the show.
The only remaining finalist I might pay to see is the screaming rocker with the facial tic.
So, into this mess goes our very own Kelly Clarkson, Idol‘s first winner. She’ll be guest performing on Thursday’s results show and reminding us why we still care about this program.
Pia was the best singer of them all and she already got her a record deal after being unceremoniously voted off the show last week.
Adam Lambert was a great guest and I’m sure Kelly will be too. However, none of the remaining contestants are as good as the two performers I just mentioned. Your so-called screaming rocker is just that a screamer with no control of his high shrill notes. I agree about the country kid he should be heard not seen. I would pay to see any of these contestant or buy their music.
Can Lopez be voted off? I’ll cast my vote immediately.
Jennifer Lopez is the only hottie left on the show.
This year’s screaming rocker has developed a lot of restraint and subtlety since the season’s beginning. He was just a screamer during the early shows but he’s steadily improved and is already as good as Adam Lambert, maybe better.
