That group number was a disaster IMO. Couldn't believe the audience gave them a standing ovation.

I think both Constantine and Bo need cleaned up. They just always look dirty. Constantine's hair and Bo's nostrils gross me out. eeewwwwww!

I have given this a lot of thought and I hate to say this but I think Scott is going to win.

Maris: I usually laugh at your comments. Now I'm scared.

Allison's: I don't think votes go straight to another contestant when one is voted off. I think the people watch the performances the next week and decide then. Of course if the viewers are really down on someone, they will never vote for them.

I have looked at it and asked myself who is voting for Scott, someone is. Then it hit me, my sons school is filled with middle class teenagers who want to be gangstas and scott is their mascot. We know teens have been voting historically well this is their posterboy this year and we just dont get it.

I usually have a favorite and then a runner-up, so if my favorite gets voted off (which usually happens) I switch to my runner-up. But after that one gets voted off I usually don't vote anymore until the final two - if I care (last year I didn't vote).

There are a lot of great "country rock" songs so that shouldn't be a problem for Bo. I would think this category would be more problematic for Scott and Anthony. Of course it is perfect for Carrie and Vonzelle will just sing something loud and up-tempo like she always does (has she sung anything that isn't loud and up-tempo?). And who knows what rabbit Constantine will pull out of his hat this week!

Bo can sing a creedence clearwater song. That has a country feel to it.

Evidence in favor of Scott Pact with Devil:

1. Churches in Ohio cancelling Tuesday services so that people can vote for Scott.

2. Resembles Hellboy.

3. Experience in negotiation (plea bargain with DA)

negotiation or persuasion. I think I might choose persuasion.

Alisons posted that the theme for this week may be country.
I'm now haunted by images of Constantine riding onto the stage on a mechanical horse (or bull) in a satin and sparkly blue western shirt, a hat on his head and singing Rhinestone Cowboy.

As for who would get Anwar's votes, I'm not sure why you would think just Bo or Vonzell. I voted for Anwar, but now most of my votes (instead of being split) will go probably to Anthony (good thing you don't know where I live ;).

I wasn't able to see Tuesday's show (because of dh-grrrr), so I didn't hear Vonzell's singing to know about the backup singers hitting her high notes, but I noticed this a week or two ago with Carrie. Seems totally unfair that the backup singers' music line would be arranged to so clearly play up the sound of a contestant.

I saw in US magazine where there was a picture of the hairdresser doing that goofy doo of Nadia's (the mohawk), and how they hid her prior to her song to keep it a surprise. The way it sounded, the hairdresser was quite proud of it. I can't help but wonder if the show found some hairdressers with a few screws loose to work on the contestants. Bleh. As for the clothes, last season, the females wore some really ugly stuff, too (remember Fantasia with that bra-less wonder? And then there was almost anything Jennifer and Diana wore), so I have a hard time believing that anyone is guiding them in clothes choice....but I could be wrong (scary then, though!).

You know, I initially laughed at the idea of Scott winning, too, and figured that, soon, AI would do something to force him out but...... assuming AI wants a winner that attracts a different demographic than prior winners, Scott would certainly seem to, going by Maris' comments and other things I've read about him. While I like his voice, I certainly would not buy gangsta-targeted music, but I could see it happening. What a waste of his voice. Ugh.

Aren't thier hairstyles/wardrobes selected to match the genre or era of thier songs?? I guess that was my thinking and in my opinion the girls have been doing well with that.

Scott sings Gangsta music? Am I watching the same show? He sings R&B love ballads all the time just like Ruben did. He would have the same demographic as Ruben as far as record sales go.

I know it sounds horrible <bad bad Jim!!!> but I just can't get past Scott's demeanor/attitude/personality. If he acted like Ruben, I would like him a lot more.

no he doesnt sing gangsta music, it is his demeanor, his clothes, the way he speaks, the stupid hat, the hand gestures. Nothing to do with voice.. Ruben never spoke or acted like Scott and isnt even in the same league.

Ruben was always appreciative of the opportunity and never had an attitude.

I can tell you who will get my Anwar votes (he got my Nadia votes after she left). Unless someone knocks my socks off on the night, I'm not calling anymore.
