Scorpiomoon | Tuesday, August 12, 2003 - 06:56 pm     Kelli: I see Tyler taking over the open stage at the Ritz Diner. (That place is still open isn't it?) |
Kellirippa | Tuesday, August 12, 2003 - 10:19 pm     You know, I think it still is, I used to work at the Bay across the street from there...I haven't thought about that place for a long time. aahh well, poor Tyler Well, Go Ryan Go |
Kellirippa | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 12:21 pm     I'm still awfully confused about the Loreal makeover thing... Not one of these kids looks like they've had so much as a trim, they all look exactly the same as they did in their auditions... OH~And...WHY oh WHY do they have that odd pop-in guy on the show?? The American Idol show had enough sense to get rid of their doofus sidekick. |
Snee | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 10:21 pm     i agree about the makeover thing, kelli. wha? i also agree about the 'odd pop-in guy'--no more doofus sidekick!!! i love you too, nutsy! sorry about you losing mikey. you obviously didn't chant as hard as i did. although, i've got to admit, i feel bad for him, just as i feel bad for everyone who leaves. (snees are soft-hearted that way.) i'm glad i'm not Out There about the loosenes of the motown thing. i mentioned it to a friend and she was very literal. maybe i'll mention the remy shand thing to her! hehehe! (snees are mischievious that way.) i think jenny's style of music is 'quirky jazz'. think about her audition performance of 'god bless the child' that made the judges cry. snee-dad and i have a feeling that jenny might be getting votes not because she is having great performances with these other genre songs, but because people are interested in what she's going to do next. i was eagerly anticipating motown night, but they fudged. still, i can't help but wonder how she'll do in other genre...if they don't fudge. (snees are curious that way.) yeah, i was sad about tyler and surprised too because, even though his performance wasn't very good, i thought his fan base would keep him safe. snee-dad & co. are shocked and shaken to the core because he was their favourite. snee-step-mum didn't think we were talking about the same competitor when i told her who had been voted out (they had company last night and couldn't watch). for me now, it's all about ryan. |
Snee | Wednesday, August 13, 2003 - 10:23 pm     oh, does anyone know what the theme is for next week? (snees, as you may recall from earlier posts, are curious that way.) |
Scorpiomoon | Thursday, August 14, 2003 - 12:54 pm     Oh man! Did you guys read the article about the CI finalist (as in he got a gold ticket to go to Toronto) who was arrested for exposing himself-- several times--in public? If not, here it is: The article. Aye, aye, aye. I cringed when I read this. |
Kellirippa | Friday, August 15, 2003 - 09:30 am     Wow, that guy is one sick puppy...naked in February in Winnipeg!!!! |
Jhonise | Saturday, August 16, 2003 - 09:26 am     Oh my goodness! That dude needs serious help. |
Snee | Saturday, August 16, 2003 - 03:11 pm     well, i'm not going to read the article because nekkid in february in winnipeg tells me everything i need to know...as in...what was there to see. i'm talkin' serious skrinkage. |
Jan | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 04:51 pm     Jenny's doing the song that got her to the big show in the first place....Summertime. At the auditions all the judges cried over this rendition. this time, they loved it too..they feel vindicated in bringing her here. She does have a great rendition of this song, I think (although I readily admit I know nothing about music). This should keep her in for another week. |
Jan | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:00 pm     Gary sang Unchained Melody..a song I love, but not necessarily the way he is doing it. I guess I like it with two singers. But the judges liked it, even Zach So sounds like he MAY be safe again. |
Jan | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:07 pm     Audrey is singing Mariah Carey's Dream Lover. (I just checked the site..and was surprised to see she is only 17; the only teenager left in the competition) I wasn't crazy about it but I am not a big Mariah fan. Zach didn't like it but the rest did. I wonder if this is her week to go??  |
Lizajane | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:10 pm     Okay, I'm getting the Jenny thing a bit better now, although I'll admit I've never heard that song before so I don't know how it is "supposed" to sound. I didn't think Gary was as good as the judges obviously thought; I couldn't make out half of what he was saying. I don't like Mariah Carey so maybe I'm prejudiced, but I didn't think Audrey was that great either. You could really hear her accent this time, I've never noticed it before when she's singing. |
Scorpiomoon | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:14 pm     Hey you guys! Jenny surprised me! Maybe it was the straight hair and the false eyelashes... She did a really good job. I couldn't bear to listen to Gary sing Unchained Melody. I am so sick of that song. Audrey sucked. Billy just finished up and I think it was overkill. Zack is being a jerk tonight. But I liked the dig he took at Sass. he's right everything she says is lame and useless. Bring out Ryan! |
Jan | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:15 pm     Billy singing CCR's Have you ever seen the Rain. I'm liking him here...but he isn't so good on the stage movement thing, methinks. The judges didn't like the song choice much though. |
Scorpiomoon | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:16 pm     Oh and I have to add... The banter between that John guy and Ben is getting more and more painful to watch. I wish they would axe John. It's not funny anymore. |
Jan | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:18 pm     HI guys...I am glad to see you as I am tired of talking to myself!! Liza.I noticed exactly the same thing re Audrey's accent. I thought it was much more pronounced tonight and yes, Scorpio, for some reason Zach is really being a total jerk tonight! so far, I would say either billy or Audrey is gone..and since Billy was in the bottom 4 last week... |
Lizajane | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:19 pm     I'm with Farley. I love Billy but I don't think that song was for him. I with they'd have a Hard Rock night!!! I guess we are seeing the answer to the makeover question tonight. Works for Jenny not so much for Audrey. Too much hairspray! |
Jan | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:19 pm     I agree about JOn, Scorpio..in fact I also find Ben to be really stilted and oversripted on this show. Ryan Seacrest seems ever so much better to me...but then he has a heck of a lot more experience at LIVE shows since he is a bigtime DJ. |
Lizajane | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:20 pm     I wish Tyler was here for tonight. Can't you just hear him doing Alan Jackson's Summertime Blues. And yes, Jon must go! Edited to add: Ben's goofy too but at least he's cute! |
Jan | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:24 pm     Toya doing YOU are the sunshine of my Life. oh my..Toya has that finger flapping thing that drove everyone crazy on AI. I have always liked her and usually vote for her..but not so much tonight. Hmmm..now whom to vote for?? edited to add: yes I wish Tyler were still here too |
Scorpiomoon | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:27 pm     Liza: You're so right about Tyler. Toya pretty well tonight! I want the final two to be between Toya and Ryan. |
Lizajane | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:28 pm     I would like Toya better if she would just sing the song without all the acrobatics. Maybe its just me but I find it irritating. |
Jan | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:29 pm     I agree Scorpio..Toya I have always liked and Ryan has really grown on me!

Jan | Monday, August 18, 2003 - 05:31 pm     Trouble is Liza, the judges keep positively reinforcing her for them. |
