Is tonight the Las Vegas show? Or wherever it is, but no more idiot auditions?

Did DRAGAPELLA perform and did they go through to the next level?

They're either a woman or a guy with great legs.

It's a guy. I won't comment on his legs. And yes, he made it through.

I am really confused by their picks. I can't believe they didn't put through Kat, the African American woman with the really short hair who used to be a prison guard. She sang really well and performed for a crowd even though no one was in the audience or the chubby teen girl who sang and played the piano. They put through the R&B guy whose voice kept cracking, the military guy (who I loved) even though he forgot the words and all those impersonators. Something just isn't right!

That was an awfully weird show. Why bing them to Vegas at all if you are just going to cut them before they can even perform again? That was odd. Oh well, at least they got a trip to Vegas for their troubles.

I noticed they didn't show my fav singing again. They only showed him him getting his notice that he is staying. I think that's a good sign. My fav is the ski cap guy who sang "Walking in Memphis" a few weeks back.

Spy, I think with the military guy, they must have decided to give him another chance to remember lyrics because his voice is AWESOME.

Now much as I love those two really young kids, I don't relax watching them because they may be phenoms for their age, they are off key (or pitchy or whatever) and it is sort of like going to a kiddie talent show or recital and not to Vegas. I would have rather given another chance to some of the older kid singers.

But really, they have another mass dismissal coming before they get down to business.

Naja, that guy was good, as I remember.

I thought when they called the two older children to the front and left the little ones in the back that the older ones were safe and the younger ones were cut. I hope if they do cut them, that they will allow their parents to come out when they get the news.

Going back to my comment about DRAGAPELLA .. its a group called Kinsey Sicks that perform a capella in drag, hence they call themselves Dragapella. They're amazing.

They were shown in some of the pre-show ads .. and last night I kept getting glimpses of them in the background . They were in a group that was sent through.

I hope they get rid of those two young kids before they go to The Live Hollywood shows.

ETA: I don't care if they are kidding phenoms. I wouldn't pay to go to a 90 minute show with that four year old singing (and while she can sing, she ain't all that great).

My theory is that they are keeping them in for one more show to hook the viewers. It's the "aw" factor.

I'm quite sure that the parents will be right there.

Get rid of impersonators unless they do their own singing! Blech!
And why can't we have this show without singers. There are already shows for singing talent. Boring! I like the variety show acts. Terry Fator made watching singing interesting and interactive. And funny. Just standing there to sing is boring (to me). Unless there is a novelty to it.

Well, I'm not "aww-ing" at the kids. So not an aw factor for me!

Not awing either Costa. And the lipsyncers need to go. And II generally listen to about 30 seconds of the singers then fast forward.

I can't believe they let those twin singers through. They're very attractive but they can't sing.

I am so beyond pissed. They let fake Britney through but not the robot dancer guy. Grrrr. This season has been really lame.

Send all the little kids home with a Disney contract. Not appropriate for the LA shows.

Lip sync impersonators have a perfectly good show they can do here in Vegas....as part of an ensamble. They could never carry an entire show themselves. Get out of here (not top 40 material).

Singers need to show range & control to be a headliner. There were a couple of men in that range. The rest might be good singers (certainly sing better than most) but they still were boring.

We didn't get to see much of the novelty acts. Looking forward to them maybe on the next show?

So I take it they let those two kids thru to LA? <sigh> What a useless "talent" show.

Costacat - I totally agree. I'm so tired of the little kids going forward. If they want to create "America's Kids Got Talent" as a separate show that's fine.

The lip sync impersonators need to go. There's no way individually they could carry an entire show.

Some of the singers are good, but we already have "American Idol" for that talent.

I want to see variety, novelty and different acts of talent.

Actually they only let one of the little one's through. But I agree that Disney should have grabbed the two and put them under contract.
