American Idol Results 05/16/07
Last night, the remaining three contestants - Jordin, Blake and Melinda - each sang three songs: one chosen by one of the three judges, one chosen by the producers, and one chosen by the contestant. Overall, I think Jordin performed the best last night, even though her rendition of "She Works Hard for The Money" … Continue reading American Idol Results 05/16/07
Local American Idol rally Monday
There will be a rally Monday for Chris Richardson, the American Idol contestant from Chesapeake who was voted off last week. According to the Virginian Pilot, the rally will be held at 5:30pm Monday at Great Bridge High School. Don't expect him to sing, however. He can't do that, due to Idol restrictions.

Last night, each of the top four performed twice. The artist of the evening was Barry Gibb, of the BeeGees. Once again, the contestants struggled with the genre. Only Jordan managed to perform well. Not only did she choose the right songs, she performed them flawlessly. I was not surprised to see LaKisha and Blake … Continue reading American Idol Results 05/09/07

Last week's vote totals were combined with last night's to decide who had to leave. Over 135 million votes were cast in the two weeks. Last night was … Continue reading American Idol Results 05/02/07

Tonight's results show was a two-hour telethon - Idol Gives Back - in which money was raised to help children in poverty both here in the US and in Africa. The images of the children were haunting. We live in supposedly the richest country in the world, yet in eastern Kentucky, only 5 families of … Continue reading American Idol Results 04/25/07
American Idol Results 04/18/07: FINALLY!!!!!
Thank goodness for TiVo 😉 I watched last night's show this morning. With its country theme, there were some pretty good performances. I was surprised at Phil - the guy was definitely in a zone and gave his best performance of the season. There were also some pretty bad performances. Ending up in the bottom … Continue reading American Idol Results 04/18/07: FINALLY!!!!!

Why in the world did they stretch this show to an hour? The first half hour was an absolute waste of airtime - and my time. Anyway - on to the bottom three. First member of the group was Phil, who gave another lackluster performance last night. The surprise member of the bottom three was … Continue reading American Idol Results 04/11/07

I have to say that the best thing I heard all evening was when Ryan Seacrest said that Tony Bennett was not going to be singing 🙂 Hey, I like standards as much as the next gal, but a Tony Bennett fan, I'm not. But then again, I can honestly say that I'd rather hear … Continue reading American Idol Results 04/04/07

So I missed the airing of American Idol tonight but thank goodness for Tivo 🙂 The bottom three consisted of Phil Stacey, Haley Scarnato and Chris Sligh. Last night, Phil sang "Every Breath You Take" by the Police. I thought he did a good job, but I guess not good enough. Haley sang "True Colors" … Continue reading American Idol Results 3/28/07
