Hermione and Crazydog, ITA with both of you.

I honestly don't know how he made it this far.

Corey's pic is still on the A.I. website but he's listed as "Disqualified."

From an article at MSNBC:

The network has no plans to replace Clark with another contestant and said that “at this time, no decision has been made as to how this will impact this week’s shows.”

How about some others? "Dishonored." "Humiliated." It's beginning to sound like a Justin or Christina album.

Corey's most embarassing moment listed on the website refers to some stupid story of asking a girl to come on stage when he was singing at a school. "I looked real dumb." Here's some news for you, Corey - you look even dumber now! Let's have a moment of silence for his piercing falsetto, his hideous clothes, his ridculous hair, and his unjustified smugness.

Corey, don't ever say that you never got your chance. Honesty is always the best policy. You blew it.

Can't any of you people take a single moment out of your jeering to spare a tear or two for poor Paula? Have you any idea how badly this could affect the dear woman?

On the other hand, we need to start running a tab: Frenchie, out, Corey, out. Josh, possibly out (not disqualified but.. oh heck you all know). They are going to run out of contestants if this keeps up.

LOL Beach, I completely agree.

Poor PAW-la. She's going to have to start giving standing Os to people who really deserve it instead.

I'm sure the producers are kind of happy that Frenchie is out - if she was still in, she would have already won the competition. There would be no suspense at all.

who doesn't Paula love? I wish she'd just for once say "you are not good"... everyone to her "makes it their own" one way or the other, Simon's opinion seems to be the only one that counts.

The song choice for the first "American Idol" charity single has been changed to a pair of cover versions of Lee Greenwood's "I'm Proud To Be an American" and "God Bless the U.S.A." Performed by the show's second season finalists, the double-A side single will be released April 15 or April 22 via RCA Records. As previously reported, the single was originally going to be a remake of the Burt Bacharach-penned "What the World Needs Now Is Love."

The contestants sang the Greenwood songs during the March 26 "Idol" episode. "They got such an overwhelming, positive response from viewers for doing those songs that we decided to release them as the 'American Idol' charity single," RCA executive VP/GM Richard Sanders tells Bilboard.com.

i've just been sucked into the ai vortex and have a question: what's the deal you're talking about with vanessa and "a line"? huh?

i was just thinking. now, don't fall down laughing yet!! but it must be hard to be josh these days. i mean, when i think about it: all this discussion of will he stay, will he go, is he getting special favor (my husband says emphatically 'no'!! and he spent 22 years in the military and 2 years in viet nam). josh has to wonder what we are all thinking of him, living the cushy life while other marines are at war and at risk. it must be hard for him and i wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't feel a little bit guilty. maybe he will even sing a little 'off' to get booted and be back with his battalian. (?) anyway, i am going to give him a break, because if they say he is going to iraq, he is going, AI be damned. and he didn't go to AI knowing we were headed off to war. anyway, i don't believe the country theme was used for josh's sake last week and i don't believe he is being given differential treatment by the military. i don't see josh as the top one or two contestants, but he is doing okay.

I will NOT miss hearing Paula go on and on about Corey's "upper registery" or whatever the heck she calls it. Seems as if even when he was terrible all she could do is rant and rave on is "upper registery".

Tabbyking

Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 09:17 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
oh yeah, his upper register. it always made me think of my heating system! she used the word 'genre' about a dozen times tonight. she needs a thesaurus!!

Josh had the worst performance tonight, but I doubt he'll be voted out. I believe the American Public is voting for him because they don't want him sent to Iraq regardless of his singing talent.

Reuben will most likely be declared the big winner. However, I can't stand the 205 shirts. Please, can't he find a suit at the Big and Tall Shop.

Snee,
After Vanessa performed her song on the Mowtown show,she came over to sit next to Ryan.After chatting with her,he asked her to announce the next commercial break.She uttered a line about not being a trained monkey like him!
Anyway,right after the break,Ryan said her remark was scripted. It's been speculated that many viewers missed Ryan's disclaimer(they were still in the kitchen or flipping the switch) and didn't hear Ryan's statement that her line had been planned.

I'm with Gadzooks. Reuben needs to get some fly clothes and then sport a nice rhinestone pin that says '205' on it. That same tired outfit is getting old, dog! :)

You can bet that if one of the girls dressed the same way every time, the judges would be commenting on it. But then again, if one of the girls was a big as Reuben, they'd be hearing about that, too, and I have yet to hear any of the judges tell him he could stand to lose a few pounds.

I don't understand why some people single out Ruben for wearing variations of the same theme onstage. Josh's entire wardrobe ever since the first audition consists of a white cowboy shirt and a black cowboy shirt. And nothing else. Even Simon wears more colors.

And has anyone else noticed that Clay has worn NOTHING but untucked dress shirts with dress slacks? Although I do give him credit last night for sporting the Qiana version of his drag in homage to disco. I still have a few of them in my closet!

(must. resist. obvious. Clay. closet. joke. :) )

On a similar topic: for the love of G*d, please tell Kim Locke to *fire* Aretha Franklin's stylist. NOW.

thank you, magik! next question (hehe): what is the significance of ruben's 205? i would have thought it's just an old football number or something, but it's all up at an angle and that throws me off. am i missing something?

btw hot, you used v.g. self control just then. hehe.

I know! I know! (cause I had to ask last week! LOL) it's the area code for Birmingham, where he is from.

Hotlantan - I smiled when I saw you use "Qiana!" If that doesn't bring back the 70's then I dunno what does!

Paula is seriously grinding on my nerves this year.
