I was like, "Did he just call Diana Ross a whale?" We got a good laugh and figured it out, somebody should really tell Simon we don't use words like wail these days. LOL!

I know you didn't mean you were bothered by humble people, but you aren't the only one on these boards that has made a comment about Melinda's "humble act", which I really don't think is an act. ANYWAY! If you are going to "put on" a personality type, there are worse ones, right? (Chris Sligh, I'm speaking to YOU)

Lurknomore, which Taylor show are you going to? Avalon, Foxwoods or Hampton Beach? We're going to see him in HB. You and I can compare notes in my folder afterwards, or revive your folder. /clipart{wink}

It seemed like some of the singers last night were really thrown by their "new digs" with the larger band (used to drown out the worst singers??) and huge audience.

I had hopes for a couple of the men, but that hope is gone. I don't think any of them will improve enough to compete with the majority of the girls. Blake reminded me of Boogie too, which is not a good thing. I was impressed with his group audition but don't care for his style anymore.

Go Melinda, Lakeesha, Jordin and Gina!!

Simon should stop making obscure wildlife references. Remember the minK, and now the humpback wail? LOL!

It seems to me that if you are playing the idol game, one of the bonus questions should be

Which Idol will simon call a slippery eel for sliding through every week.

a) Sanjaya
b) chris R
c) Haley
d) Chris S

Note I did not include Brandon because I cannot imagine any scenario under which he will survive the boot this week.

Oh, and someone asked what Sanjaya must think about what people say about him. He was interviewed by one of our newspeople and was asked if he kept up with the blogs about him. He stated he has chosen to keep himself in a bubble so he doesn't know what is being said about him

Simon basically told Chris R. that he is getting by on his looks, personality, and his performances (dancing etc)...not his singing. He said take all of that away/listen to him on the radio, and you would quickly change the station.

That might be a good thing for him because he seems very sensative.

I find it very hard to believe that Sanjaya's family isnt telling him what is going on. Remember his sister is advising him and helping him pick his songs.

I think Sanjaya knows how bad he is and knows what is being said. He is taking a page out of William Hungs book and is hoping he can parlay this incompetence into a decent college fund and I think he will be quite successful at it. more power to him if he can do it too.

Maris, he actually mentioned that his family has been reading the blogs and has attempted to tell him. But he states he has told all of them that he doesn't want to know. I agree that it is probably the best thing for him. He'd probably be crushed, poor thing

Aww come on.... Sanjaya ain't no Will Hung

I think he really doesn't recognize his deficiencies. He clearly realizes his competition is very good and more experienced, but he always looks baffled when Simon rips on him, like he thinks he is a crotchety old codger with strange opinions.

I would love to see a montage at the end of the season with all of Sanjaya's reactions to Simon's comments. It would be priceless, lol.

btw, i am the poster formerly known as buggles

Hi poster formerly known as Buggles! :D

I've been saying for weeks that Blake reminds me of Boogie.

I even gave him a nickname but it's not been going over to well.

Nick, I have been thinking it, but held back knowing how terrible it feels when your fav is put in such a terrible light..Tonight I will put all caution to the wind and agree with you and the artist formerly known as buggles..LOL

If I was Sanjaya's family I wouldn't tell him anything, nor would I (Sanjaya) read anything negative. While most (notice I said most, not all) of us agree that he is not as developed a talent as some of the other competitors (although quite frankly in this class of guys it is a thin line), he is still an apparently delightful young man who can sing and wants to make it his career. I would use this opportunity to learn and grow as much as I could as a performer. This is a DREAM situation in which to learn from the best.

Hmmm... I got the impression that it was his SISTER who wanted the musical career, and that Sanjaya just kinda sorta tagged along with her. I did NOT get the impression that that was really HIS dream.

I'm so glad that whale/wail comment was mentioned in this thread! I can't believe I didn't realize Simon said wail not whale! Of course he said wail, I just didn't get it at all! Overthinking as usual, I thought he was trying to say you'd never have a whale in Beverly Hills and Sanjaya would never become the next idol or something....lol!

I hope Sanjaya's sister stops picking out soft sensitive songs for him. I'm glad he doesn't know about the press. He seems like such a sweet kid. Best of luck to him...off ai!

On Tuesday, I told two of my daughters "wait until you hear D. Ross sing tomor. night! She's wonderful." Wow, what a disappointment she was last night. (funny clothes too!) She did not sound good. I also thought - what would the judges say if she was in the competition. Maybe her voice did age though? How old is she now? Sixties? She looks fabulous!

I have missed full episodes of American Idol due to staying with my sick mother, I found some on YouTube and now can't find them any longer--the website only has part of the shows--not full episodes--does anyone know where I can find them? thanks for any help

Realurker, just looked at the website too, but no luck. Did you see you can download the contestants' songs as mpegs for 99c each!? Any way to make money. Sorry I can't be more help.

I think that maybe Sanjaya is getting some bad advice behind the scenes, bumping up his ego a bit and suggesting he answer Simon back. He's said a few things in the last couple of shows which it doesn't seem like he'd have said before. Ultimately that will lose him votes, people who answer back usually seem to lose votes, and maybe that's why he's gettng that "advice" (if he is). I have to feel a bit sorry for him, he seems like a sweet guy, who does have a talent, albeit under-developed right now, who's just out of his depth.

Thanks for your answer Kitt, still hoping there are downloads somewhere (I also agree with you about Sanjaya, talking back to Simon is the kiss of death for a contestant)

Kitt, I could totally see the producers telling Ryan to tell Sanjaya to sass Simon back, that the audience expect and want it from him. Ryan will tell him that the girls love that and it will really help him to stay in longer.

AI will pull out all the stops they can to get rid of Sanjaya at this point.
