Well, I am no body language expert but that first pic with them has Carrie holding on for dear life and Anthony is barely clutching her at the back. His body is also turned away from her. I think she may be more into him than he is in her. Mind you, he is trying to sing a song though...

Exactly Fans! I'm thinking this is all a lot of flap about NOTHING. These kids get close. I bet Carrie will be doing the crying her eyes out as the next falls, which we all know will be Vonzell since this whole thing is a farce. Now she probably won't create the buzz about Vonzie because I doubt she'll be clutching her the same way and has probably heard about all this crap.

I also joined that silly fan site... lol.. that's where I read the info in the first place.

I wonder if it's really the actualy girlfriend anyway. Yes, it's supposed to be managed by Anth's friends and brother, but who knows what someone could do to register. Sounds like a bit of jealousy to me if it is her and she probably didn't like seeing Carrie draped all over "her man" on national TV. She better get used to it if she wants to stay his GF and he's going on tour this summer. He is only 20 for pete's sake. I'm so glad by 20 my DD finally lost her HS BF. It couldn't have been fast enough for me.. LOL

Now I never thought of sweet Anthony in anything other than a sweet kind of way, but I was obsessed with him going further.. so go figure that one! LOL BUT....... I was reading at TWOP (television w/o pity) and holy moly...... all these older women were so hot about him and his body. LOL I had to go back and watch the last performance I have of him to see what they were talking about. Let's just say there are parts of his anatomy these women were hot and bothered about ..so much so that they were actually feeling dirty about themselves. LOL Too funny.

Well, supposedly, Anthony had Irina running voting parties for him and providing personal information to nudge along his fandom. Sha was also his guest on the final five show.

I have heard that he broke up with her after he was kicked off and pretty much when he no longer needed her to support him. They had been going out for 2 years. I understand how teens are dating to look for their true love and the first person you get mildly serious with might not be the one you should end up with, the calculation of the timing of the break up seems pretty tacky to me. I think it is important that these kids realize that just because they had some exposure, it is no promise of a career. Ask Julia of AI2 who is back cutting hair or Christina of AI1 who just finished getting her degree so she could earn a living. LaToya and George of AI3 are doing a mall tour right now.

But then, there is a little of the supporting until successful and then dropping the person in my own little story, so perhaps I am more sensitive of being used.

No problem, Sadiesmom. She needs to go to the wrap party as Constantine's date.

I'm not so sure it's true that Anthony broke up with Irina. There's a message there from his best friend which basically says, he was so busy with AI commitments after he was voted off that he had no time to call anyone and he was not able to answer his phone messages either. The best friend even has a video of the voice message Anthony left him apologizing for not getting ahold of him sooner because of all that was happening. I think the jury is out on this one. I think Irina didn't much like seeing her little hottie having a blonde sobbing over him, saying she loved him and clinging to him which started a huge flap.

Then again, when you're with a group of people for that long and not with the "one" all the time as usual, and you're really young.. (OK, let's face it, old people do it too! LOL) I can see feelings sprouting. Supposedly Carrie has a bf back home and I've read a lot of defending of her.
So who knows?!!!!! Now if Bo dumps his "supposedly pregnant" girlfriend for Carrie, then we'll really have something to gossip about! ROFL

humming - and if you can't be with the one you love........love the one you're with... love the one you're with!

I just found out that the Country Music Association Awards or something will be on the same time as AI this week. Could this have a negative effect on Carrie with her country fans who may not tune in to watch her because they want to see whomever is a country star these days?

I cannot believe that some people here seem to think that AI could be "fixed" or "rigged". They obviously have no knowledge of the rules and regulations that surround "game shows". And this show does fall within those regulations.

Clearly fans of Anthony aren't going to like Bo. Not a big surprise, Ant is the nice little clean-cut boy. Kinda like a church boy.

Bo just isn't "their kind of person" all the long hair and facial hair, he must be some kind of hippie communist heroin addict freak.

Too bad they can't see past the hair and hair and see the sweetness of his smile and the pure joy in his eyes.

Yea, maybe they also stack the audience with paid Bo fans. That must be why the audience reaction to Bo is twice what it is for the others.

They complain that they only get in 5 votes for their Anthony, or only get in 10 votes, or as one person said, only get in 50% of the time.

Guess what, I've been trying to vote for Bo for the past 3 weeks, usually trying for 2-3 hours and NEVER GET IN, not even once. One night I tested, and got in a vote for Carrie, got in a vote for Vonzell, and got in a vote for Anthony. And even at 11:30, 2 and a half hours after the end of the show, I still couldn't get in a vote for Bo.

What kind of a plot would that be, I wonder.

I needed this rant, badly. I am so tired of people who are sure that everything in the universe that doesn't go their way is some kinda conspiracy.

Bo is the most popular, sorry if he's not your boy, but he is my boy and I hate it that you degrade his popularity with your false and ridiculous assertions

There, I'm Done!

Whoa Sun...sorry you are feeling so strongy there.
I for one was doing a LOT of joking with my "conspiracy theory" bull.
Like I have repeatedly said in many of the reality forums, I watch but I have no interest in who wins ANY of them. Means nada to me.

I know there are many who do take these shows so to heart. But it's not that way for me. I just enjoy a good giggle over it all.
Actually I try to find something to conspir about just to break some tension! LOL
I think there are MANY things that are controlled by the producers of these shows, all of them. The biggest being editing.
You said:
"I cannot believe that some people here seem to think that AI could be "fixed" or "rigged". They obviously have no knowledge of the rules and regulations that surround "game shows". And this show does fall within those regulations. "

You have me there, because I do not have any knowledge of any of the rules and reg's of these type shows, nor do I really care! LOL No offense, but that is something I don't give a hootnanny about. I just like to poke at the theories because it's fun.

I'm not trying to put off what you are saying, I hear ya. You are a true and devoted fan of Bo's, and others have their fav's as well.
That's the problem, sometimes folks get too deep into this and take posts to personally.
As I said in another reality forum, it's just not that big a deal to me. I just like to hang out with the fun gang here and yack about silly stuff.
But knowing that what I may have said has upset you, I truly will watch what I joke about. I'd hate to think one of my silly posts brought out this kind of emotion and not laffs.
*HUGS* to you and I hope you enjoy the rest of the shows.

Pffffffffffffffft!!!!!!! Bwahahahaaha... FOX, PLANT, FERTILIZER?!!!!! LOL

Sun - if it makes you feel any better, I've seen lots of boards where Anthony fans will now be voting for Bo.

We all experience the same thing with voting so it makes us all wonder how come we can't get in a vote, no matter who it is, and how come some people are able to vote so many times. I think it's all with the text votes. They get through and the sponsor gets happy. :-)

I really don't care who of the final 3 win. They all bring something else to the table. I think Bo's a nice guy, I love rock'n'roll, think he's a good performer, however, I judge this contest in a different manner than many so that's why I've had different favorites. I look for vocal range, tone, etc., not just someone who can knock my socks off with a good rock performance. In another contest, Bo would be my boy! Enjoy.... I think he has a good shot at winning this. :-)

LOL Maris.

I figured I'd be more like a foxtail (ya know, the stickery thing) around here after my rant.
News and Views readers are more accustomed to my emotional outbursts.

Thanks everyone for taking it so nicely.

Anthony was my fav....
Very odd actually because if you looked at the CD's in my car they consist of Led Zepplin, Marshall Tucker Band, Pink Floyd, Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, etc.

I like Bo he was actually my first choice, but Anthony really grew on me and I only voted for him. I loved his voice and his personality. Very refreshing to me from the ones who we typically see on the show.

Alas.. now he is gone... sniff... I shall pine away until his CD comes out and then I shall put it in a place of honor between Led Zepplin and Marshall Tucker.

Sunrvrose, with the extra line they are adding for voting, you might have a better chance to vote. My dialing will never get in your way, since I don't vote (feeling kind of Meh about the show lately).

According to the FCC, AI is not a game show, but a reality show, so it does not have the same rules. That was said 2 years ago when some people contactedthe FCC - you can guess why. On the otherhand, a woman used to post on one board about how her husband got a job at the company that counts the votes and everyone there was very protective on the vote being on the up and up. He told her, that he is not allowed to talk about the vote, but the numbers they give AI are real counts. I never asked her if it was before or after they determined about autodialers anddiscarded those counts.

As far as musical tate, it is highly individual. I feel I can disagree with someone who does not like the same music I do without taking it personally. It is just like we are all attracted to different mates. It would be pretty bad if we were all attracted to only one type of person and no one had different tastes. If someone does not get the same person you like, well it is their loss, not yours.

This year in AI is very interesting in the fact that so many people have created attatchments to such a diverse group. I don't think there really has been one distinct frontrunner, but that many people have found themselves a respectable sized fan base.

For those of you missing people who were voted off, there is always the tour. Peraonally, I don't think I could stand it because I disliked the group songs and there would be too much of that going on. I don't know if it was the voices, but I really hated the arrangements (oK, step forward, sing your line then it is the next persons turn).

I would not mind the group numbers if they could have a sense of humor about how bad they are and actually do a Brady song.

This is the first year that my favorite (Constantine, strictly for his vocals ) has been voted out prior to the final and I am surprised how hostile it makes me feel to the entire process. How DARE they?

I so totally do NOT want to go see the tour because they always go to incredibly crowded poorly managed venues where you have to stand in line for an hour for a drink and then another hour to use the restroom. And the traffic is bad, too.

Having been one of those who has had occasion to complain to the FCC, I can second that they do not consider AI a game show.

Auto-dialers are tracked based on how quickly the same number redials.

I had the same problem when I was online to buy my Paul McCartney tickets... it I hit the back button and then the send button to quickly it would give me a halt that autodialers are not permitted.
