American Idol Madness
Yes, it is that time of year again. The time of year where Christine is in such a state of bliss that not even the impending crap weather that is the month of March. That's right: American Idol is back in business. And Lost is running two new episodes in a row(!). And The Amazing Race (Two-people edition) contestants are queueing up at the starting line. And ANTM will be back...hopefully...please? And Survivor. But most importantly: American Idol is back.
Sure it's been on since January. But the auditions, as fun as they may be to laugh at people and excercise your inner meanie, are just the warm-up. The Top 24 show...that's when the competition really starts and we can start to size up the contestants.
Early picks for:
Top 5: Mandisa, Paris Bennett, Lisa Tucker, Katherine McPhee, Chris Daughtry
The next 6: Will Makar (gets my vote partly because of where he's from--though he seems nice but he's probably just another stuck-up Woodlands brat who goes to the Fellowship every Sunday and Wednesday like a good little Christian boy--then gets high), Ace Young (Ace is a case of talent not mattering; he'll obviously make it through this round), Elliot Yamin, Ayla Brown, Kellie Pickler (she's so adorable), Kevin Corvais
The 12th Dude: Should be Taylor Hicks. SHOULD.
I've asked God to end the Idol run of: Brenna Gethers. That girl can go fuck a horse for all I care; just GET HER OFF MY TV. A fine example of talent not equaling class. Or a fine example of judges putting people through for ratings. You know what? There was no drama like that last year and 30 million people (that's the population of Canada--or Tokyo) watched the Carrie/Bo finale. PLEASE vote this bitch off! However, I have a bad feeling that she'll stick around for a few episodes.
Getting the boot tonight: Bobby Bennett (he's nice and fun but...he's not making it to the top two), Patrick Hall (because he insulted Ace during the promos. OMGZ ACE!!!1!!!!1!!11), Stevie Scott (sorry Christine Daae, stick to opera), and then it's a toss up between Heather Cox (she was boring) and Becky O'Donahue (but she has a great career in bikini modeling or filling in for Sugababes when one of them is out sick).
Contestants without a chance in Hell: Jose "Sway" Pinella, Bobby Bennett, Brenna Gethers (thank God). They aren't white. They aren't black. America isn't ready for a non-white, non-male president and you think they're going to vote for people of unobvious races to be the American Idol? Dream on.
(P.S. Diana DeGarmo doesn't count. She was the result of a voting fluke that send Latoya London and Jennifer Hudson packing. We all knew Fantasia would win.)
