Idols on tv tonight
Ariasmum | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 05:54 pm     I just noticed on tv that they are on right now. Don't know when it started. I just saw Christina finishing a song and then RJ introduced Tamrya who sang Somewhere Over the Rainbow. Anybody watching? What did I miss? |
Max | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 06:06 pm     8-10 p.m. ET/PT on Fox.  |
Ariasmum | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 06:10 pm     Crap! I can't believe I missed the first hour! It looks like the final 30 are all there! Christina, RJ, Tamyra, Justin have all been really great so far I think. |
Ariasmum | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 06:23 pm     Kelly did just sang a duet with her idol - Reba McIntyre. Good but.........What's with her outfit? Kelly's wearing a black peasant dress overtop of jeans! Looks frumpy! |
Puttergirl | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 06:46 pm     Excellent!!! The choreography was really well done!! They cut it off at the end though... while they were still singing!!! |
Wcv63 | Monday, September 23, 2002 - 06:59 pm     I enjoyed the show tonight! That Midnight on the Oasis number sounded excellent but looked really cheesy. The girls were out in the desert wearing harem outfits (Kelly wasn't in this number) and trying to outsexy one another. There was a duet with Ryan Starr and Nikki McKibbon where they were both riding motorcycles down the strip. I guess to prove they are both "rocker chicks" and "wild children" at heart. Why did Ryan have so many solos? These Boots Were Made for Walking, Last Dance. It seems like we saw more of Ryan tonight than anyone. Ugh. Kelly and Reba sounded phenomenal during their duet. Kelly is supposed to be on Leno tonight. Tommorrow night at 9:30 on MTV Kelly will be featured on Making the Video (Before Your Love). Here's a link to her fan club that shows her other appearances. http://www.kellyfanclub.net/appear.php |
Twinkle | Tuesday, September 24, 2002 - 06:58 am     Watched part of the show last night, taped some to watch later. I agree with Simon's assessment that the talent in the US is superior, but I wonder why they don't perform more contemporary material. While I enjoyed what I saw, it reminded me of an "Up With People" concert. |
Laura11103 | Tuesday, September 24, 2002 - 07:42 am     Ariasmum, I was thinking the same thing, a dress w/ jeans under it????? It looked like she ran out of time changing or something, very bad outfit. As for the duet, it made me cry, only cuz that is one damn incredible song, so emotional, the thought of a cheated on wife and a mistress talking (or singing) to each other, you've got his mornings... you've got his nights.... WOW. |
Muse | Tuesday, September 24, 2002 - 08:57 pm     I didn't feel like Ryan has too many solos. She had plenty (another one or two and I might think differently, even), but it didn't seem like the show was dominated by her. Yet I *did* feel like we saw a whole lot of Christina and Tamyra. I'm not really complaining about the Tamyra part (since she's one of my favorites), but it really didn't seem very balanced. Oh well. I'm just glad that we didn't get a whole bunch of Jim solos. The cheesy moments (and there were a LOT of them!) made me laugh. So bad. Sooo bad. But I was entertained overall, so I forgive them. Bad things about the reunion: EJay's hair (why is he trying to copy Justin's look??), A.J.'s black leather outfit (with sunglasses), the desert medley, the obvious lipsynching (did they switch back and forth between lipsynching and real singing?), Tamyra's approach to "Over the Rainbow", Kelly's hair (and the fact that she looked exhausted - girl needs a break), Justin with no shirt on (nice abs, but only the other scary Justinn went shirtless, so please keep it on), Kelly's dress/jeans combo (I just don't get that trend), Jim, um...there's more... Good things about the reunion: Tamyra's "A House Is Not A Home", Kelly and Reba's duet (they both seemed to enjoy themselves, too - very cute ), Justin's "Desperado", Kelly's "Before Your Love" (I don't generally care for either of her singles, but it was still nice to get a preview of the video), Nikki's solo in the country medley (actually, I liked several of the songs in the country medley), Seacrest "singing" when Nikki shoved the microphone in his face (yes, I'm a dork - I laughed ), the fact that they had most of the top ten do one of their better performances from the competition (Justin had "The Look of Love" and "For Once in my Life", Christina did "Ain't No Sunshine", etc)... |
Fluff | Wednesday, September 25, 2002 - 05:34 am     Unfortuantely, I caught it at the end, when Kelly was singing her solo (so sick of the song). Kelly needs to rest her voice. To me, it's losing that punch and starting to sound a little dry. |
Djgirl5235 | Wednesday, September 25, 2002 - 12:53 pm     I enjoyed the performances, but I was disappointed in the amount of air time that certain people got - namely, Christina & Tamyra. I understand that they're good, but it would have been nice to see more of Kelly. She does need to rest not only her voice, but herself - she is very tired!!! Otherwise, it wasn't too bad - VERY cheesy, but fun. The one blond girl that was always doing it up for the cameras was driving me CRAZY by the end of the show though!! LOVED the duet btwn Kelly & Reba - that was fantastic!!!! |
Spramp | Thursday, September 26, 2002 - 12:58 pm     Oh my goodness - I felt like a big hunk of cheddar watching that show - it was sooo cheesy. If I had any plans to buy tickets to the actual concert, they are lost now....if that is what it would be like - no thanks. I enjoyed the series but this "extravaganza" was way too corny for me. |

I was in Up With People 22 years ago and while I was watching this, I commented to my boyfriend that it reminded ME of our old shows. He had no idea what Up With People was...I'm glad somebody remembered it (Yeah...Up With People was cheesy too) LOL |
Webkitty | Wednesday, October 23, 2002 - 09:27 am     I'm late to the party here but wanted to make a few comments. The first one is about that outfit that Kelly was wearing (pheasant dress over jeans) with her duet with Reba, which was outstanding, btw (the duet) I was recently in NYC and saw a lot of this variation. None as "country" as Kelly was wearing, but a long dress over pants. One woman that I saw was stunning. Her dress was sort of a mandarin style, with deep slits on the side, and the most beautiful print. The pants she had on underneath were simple slim black ones. This must be a new trend. I don't read fashion magazines, so I'm probably out of the loop, but I thought I would report this \ Back to the show: one thing I remember was the rendition of Desperato that Justin did, perfect! It really impressed me. I thougt the overall show was rather cheesy, but, glad I got to see it. I didn't like Tamyra's rendition of Over the Rainbow, but her other songs were fantasitic as always. What else, its been awhile... Oh, I thought Christina really opened up and rocked, and Nikki was at her best. Jim was weak as always. Thats it! |
Fruitbat | Wednesday, October 23, 2002 - 10:24 am     Webkitty, the dress over jeans is a very hot look righ now, for teen and 20's. Sometimes it looks cute and funky but I agree, Kelly's stylist missed a little. It didn't look great. I think you have to be tall to pull it off. |
