Bob2112 | Thursday, April 24, 2003 - 07:08 pm     Hassenpfeffer! Oh! Go Kim L! My bonus winner pick! |
Mssilhouette | Saturday, April 26, 2003 - 10:32 am     LOL I didn't mean to start some discussion about power dialing or not. Frankly it's really just about who you like to win and calling and voting. By the way I'm sure there is power dialing going on they just have it set to redial in X amt of seconds between calls. I don't really think FOX is keeping a sharp eye out because they say the call in stats on Weds show. Meaning they're trying to translate that in to AD $$$. At any rate these folks will have something going on I mean look at Tamyra she's on a show and didn't even win the 'big' title. I hope KIM wins because she does have the talent and I like how she's pulling out all the stops for the final leg! I mean I like clay and ruben but there hasn't been much surprise in their singing styles. I've actually was surprised at KIM last week. She hit those notes with ease. In closing....GO KIM! |
Seamonkey | Saturday, April 26, 2003 - 11:16 am     I would happily lose my bonus points (Ruben) if Kim was to win |
Maris | Saturday, April 26, 2003 - 01:39 pm     Locked In 11892,3113|44373,00.html,link Kimberley Locke rises to the top. She proves Simon right by giving Ruben and Clay something to worry about -- now she's a prime contender for the Idol title, says Jessica Shaw
STRAIGHT UP NOW TELL ME Simon tells Locke she's cute now that she's lost the curly hair Before we get to tonight's delicious dish, I want to take a moment to clarify something about last week's column. We printed that we thought guest judge Smokey Robinson had plastic surgery, and he called to tell us that he didn't. Needless to say, I felt like a dork, and I'm really sorry for upsetting the voice behind some of my favorite songs. All I can say is I guess I was a little too in touch with my inner Simon last week. But enough with the old news. Can we have a moment of Kimberley Locke worship, please? Could her chunky highlights have been hotter? Could her fitted black shirt have been more flattering? And could she have made a mediocre Diane Warren song sound any better? As Simon told Ruben and Clay, ''Watch out for Kimberley Locke.'' Perhaps Kimberley is the new Clay, a.k.a. the one Ruben has to beat to win the ''American Idol'' crown. All I know is Diane Warren is the new Paula now that Paula has become the new Randy. It's nice to hear Paula giving some constructive criticism for once, but did we really need Warren to fill the sugary-judge void? Not only did we have to endure an hour of her forgettable hits, but we had to listen to her innocuous comments too. Hey producers -- enough with the guest judges! After all, less Diane means more Simon, and he's the only one who seems to be telling these six what they need to hear. He was dead-on last week with the whole Ruben and Clay stuck-in-a-rut critique. If Trenyce listens to him and shows some personality (hopefully not the one that got her in trouble with the law), she might just make it another week. Of course, my bet is that she'll be out this week, which leads me to another issue: How is it that Carmen, her extensions, and her grating vibrato keep coming back? ''You can't win this competition,'' Simon told her Tuesday. Indeed, she can't. So is the entire state of Utah voting for her or what? And is everyone who's ever enlisted dialing up for Josh? The guy is off-key week after week and frankly, he could use a little time with a military workout regimen. Not even those ridiculous copper highlights could distract from jeans three sizes too small. Josh might want to take some fashion tips from Ruben. Buy XXXL, my friend. Though big Ru was a bit raspy Tuesday (and hello, drink some water -- your tongue was so white it looked like you'd been hiking in the desert for 40 years), he still belted out the performance of the evening. ''You are one of the best we found in America,'' Randy told him. You can't argue with that. But whether he is THE best is definitely not as certain as it was a week ago. |

Marameko | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 11:07 am     Very nice Lady Tex ! What I do not understand is why more people did not "hear" her voice before now ? DUH ! For the past 2 weeks has she not nailed the songs she preformed ? I would like to hear her do Motown: "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" or the theme from "To Sir With Love" <1967> |
Gracieo | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 02:05 pm     I know what you mean, Marameko...I had her pegged from the first time I saw her in the auditions. That voice!! |
Spygirl | Tuesday, April 29, 2003 - 06:12 pm     okay - start dialing everyone! 1-866-436-5704!!! |
Marameko | Wednesday, April 30, 2003 - 08:43 am     Miss Marameko voted many , many times for Miss Kim...........<wink> |
Max | Wednesday, April 30, 2003 - 08:57 am     I voted a few times for Kim using my brand new, fancy cell phone and mMode. First time I've ever voted for an AI contestant! Kim Rocks! |
Mygetaway | Wednesday, April 30, 2003 - 11:34 am     Good Luck Kim!! I did my share, I hope it was enough... (PS I've alienated everyone in my house on Tuesday nights..LOL) |
Ladytex | Wednesday, April 30, 2003 - 11:38 am     I did my share for my "Dream Team". I hate that song, "Where the Boys Are" and when Kim started to sing it, I was like, "Why, oh why?" But the girl nailed it!! I was so impressed by her! |
Grneyedladye | Wednesday, April 30, 2003 - 11:43 am     I voted many many times for Kimberly! I thought the whole show rocked with the exception of Josh! I threw in a couple of votes for Trenyce, Clay and Ruben but, most of my votes went to Kim! |
Llkoolaid | Wednesday, April 30, 2003 - 07:52 pm     Vote for Kim please. I can't vote so please vote for Kim all night long. Don't let what happened to Trenyce happen to Kim. |
Seamonkey | Wednesday, April 30, 2003 - 07:56 pm     I voted for two solid hours.. I'm worried for next week but won't stop voting for Kim. |
Spygirl | Wednesday, April 30, 2003 - 08:11 pm     I voted for almost two hours - I divided my votes between her and Clay with a few mixed in for Trenyce. This next week will be all Clay and Kim |
Mygetaway | Wednesday, April 30, 2003 - 08:18 pm     I couldn't vote much more for Kim than I already did. (Other than begging someone like my Mom and best friend to call too) I noticed I got less calls in per minute than I did the last two weeks. Plus her line was busy longer in the beginning than normal. If Josh stays and she goes next week I won't vote again. |
Bananaclip | Thursday, May 01, 2003 - 08:22 am     Keep up the good work! The votes paid off! I voted for an hour, would have been longer but I had to take care of my baby. |
Babyruth | Thursday, May 01, 2003 - 08:44 am     I voted last night (as much as I could!) |
Emeraldfire | Thursday, May 01, 2003 - 08:24 pm     Now more than ever Kimberly will need everyone's support! If you truly like her keep your vote focused on her so she doesn't leave before her time! I know I will.  |
Llkoolaid | Saturday, May 03, 2003 - 08:11 am     Just bumping this up because I want everyone who wants Kim to stay next week to remember to cast lots of votes for her. Please call some in for me. |
Seamonkey | Saturday, May 03, 2003 - 12:28 pm     I'll call in as many as I can.. but I fear that too many who like Kim will be busy worrying about Ruben and Clay. |
Seamonkey | Sunday, May 04, 2003 - 11:49 am     Part of this article was reproduced in one of the anti-Josh threads but it has much more to say to fans of anyone.. especially Kim. longarticle |
Sadiesmom | Sunday, May 04, 2003 - 12:51 pm     From what I have seen, you not only have to vote for the two hours (can't hold a baby and dial?) and you have to recruit others to do it with you. People are really organized out there and it is scary. So you can either play with them until the voting gets fixed next time or just give up. There are major obssessions out there. |
Maris | Sunday, May 04, 2003 - 02:32 pm     I have my plan. I am going to hit the aol chatrooms and ask everyone to dial that number. I will go to the ACLU chatroom and tell them it is a toll free number to free the prisoners in Quantanimo. |
