Yeah! She did Proud Mary one night, I think, and Simon told her she was like a drag queen.

I really liked Trenyce, but mostly because her given name was LaShaundra, I think.

And I hope you people know that you have now ruined every female performance I see - I am always looking for the finger flapping thing and if they do it once it RUINS the performance for me - I have to watch to see if she is going to do it again.

Do guys finger flap?

No, unfortunately it's not unique only to Trenyce...you would be surprised at how many female singers do it...and then there are the "almost finger flappers" that leave you with your gaze fixated on their fingers...but I'm not obsessed!

the best finger flapper on a microphone, TINA TURNER. Her rendition of Proud Mary could never be matched.

People on AI accused Trenyce of "smelling" bad, not washing her hair, and being difficult to work with. Trenyce claimed that they had never worked with hair as "black" as hers and they damaged it the first time, so she hired her own hair dresser. Hence the Dean hate.
They also started rumors she was sleeping with Corey and that she was hated by all the other contestants.

I don't believe all that stuff any more than I believe her rendition of Proud Mary was a drag show. She might have received offers during her stint under their supervision (until the tour was over) that she had to turn down.

Rumor has it that Clay got out of his contract because a profitable endorsement was turned down without even being presented to him because it conflicted with an AI sponsor product. If they would do that to someone under their contract that they would profit from, what would they do to people not under their contract?

I forget which one of the ones this year was the finger flapper, but all I could think was OH NO!!!!!!!!! Everyone on the board will being going nuts over it.

Tina can do A LOT of things that just don't look good when anyone else does it!

I think Tina has been "over" worrying about how she is rated.

So many people who interview her really don't "get" her.. like someone being stunned that she doesn't play music in her home.. she has created a serene, pale, space for herself, and has been there for many years, but some people want to put her in a "rocker" box of some sort..

I always will remember Tina at that concert, (I think it was Altamont) where she opened for the Rolling Stones and she was way ahead of her time. When she went to work on a microphone, with that little glitter dress, she just blew everyone away. Then in hindsight when you think that she was an abused woman, totally beat down by her husband, I admire her all the more.

I also posted this link in the Paula thread to Drudge. Looks like the AI people can't determine if the Paula/Corey thing did or didn't happen. This is going to be a fun Wednesday night! I wish ABC was going to show this on Tuesday so we could see their faces on Wednesday. Now they'll have a week to get their game faces on before we get to see them again.

If the only thing ABC has is that Paula was playing with a boy toy, this will be a very sad hour of television indeed. I hope they have something explosive, not just stories about sexual pecadillos between and/or among contestants and judges. That'd be a big old yawner.

Lets lay some odds on whether Paula checks herself into that Hazeldon joint sometime in the next two days.

maybe she can join Dr. phil and that other guy that I have seen commercials of. Pat O'Brien I think his name is but they are the funniest commercials I have seen. Dr. Phil is going to do an on air intervention with this guy. Maybe paula can just don a sombrero and join him.

O'Brien's the one that got caught leaving truly filthy sexually harassing phone messages for some chick he worked with, then all of a sudden caught alcoholism and decided that rehab was just the ticket for him the day the news broke. And now Dr. Phil's going to fix it? The h . . .? Methinks OBrien is trying to rehab his image, not himself at this point. Nippy's in stage two of her treatment, maybe Dr. Phil can fix her too except she's more likely to go on Oprah, wave a finger in Oprah's face and prosletyze about the devil and the trailer-grade meth she wouldn't touch with someone else's hooka.

Topic? I hope Paula got it on with him, but only after he was bounced from the show. I hope she goes on Dr. Phil and wears a sombrero, too.

Maris & GAL - LOL, I was just thinking she should check herself in just like Pat O'Brien did as his loaded voicemails were hitting the internet.... now he's out and on with Dr. Phil this week, during sweeps!

Paula should definitely seek treatment during sweeps!

It's be really hot if she had a remote hookup from the rehab so she could give an insightful critique while she was detoxing [allegedly!] during this season's waning weeks; Ryan could even do a plaintive pitch to her: "And Paula, what did you think of Scott's 'performance'?". It'd be an amazing ratings boon. I can just imagine her getting increasingly bitter and snarky as the days pass. Suddenly, a sober [allegedly] Paula will make Simon look subdued and kind-hearted.
