I have listened to his cover of Billie Jean somewhere around 18 billion times by now. And besides all that freaking talent, he just seems like a really *good* guy.
Also, how much do I love that he totally SHUT DOWN Ryan Freaking Seacrest's blatant attempts to drag the story about his brother out of him on the show. >:(
I kind of hate Ryan Seacrest a lot on the show. (Oddly in other circumstances he doesn't seem to be an asshole, not that I have been reduced to watching clips of Larry King Live with the judges just to get more of a fix or anything.)
Aww, you really are gone, aren't you. (We won't talk about me circa S5 where I was voraciously reading every 'Saula' fic I could get ahold of. Including the one where they had 12 babies and each chapter began with a refresher course on the names and personalities and birthdays of each baby.)
I would have totally recced them if I had found even one good one. Picture like--hmm. There were three main message boards and sites that I frequented, and I had to have read at least...90(?) knowing me. And nothing. I totally adjust my standards according to what fandom I'm reading, and there wasn't anything that I could even handwave and pretend was something I'd actually remember reading the next week in a not badficcy way.
I am just as sad as you.
But! During a--um, moment I had with Michael and David C. a few weeks back, I did stumble upon idolslash. My moment ended though and I didn't actually...read anything. But! If you found something there, I know you would share! Or maybe something came out here in the last couple years! *flees cruelly*
I tried to have a Cook/Johns moment but it wouldn't come. I didn't like Johns enough! *confesses* It is hard after they set it up as a competition. I might have to write... gen. American Idol RPF AU gen. IT IS WHAT EVERYONE WANTS TO READ, I KNOW IT.
Well. If it helps you to know, I did start poking at that Saula website after I found it for you.
And like I said - a moment, but one that didn't actually lead to reading of fic, so I wasn't exactly invested in any given pairing. I do kind of wish that David A. were like, four years older so that I could watch merrily as people try and write the Davids in one story. I'm mean like that.
AU GEN where one wakes up with WINGS and can't go on STAGE and they're hiding in the bathroom and -- see, that, that I would read too.
Oh honey. *pets you* This part will be over soon enough. I mean, there's only 5 or 6 more weeks of the show left, anyway, and then you should only panic if you find yourself thinking about buying TOUR tickets, which is when you know that a 12-step program is your only hope.
Meanwhile, if you'd been watching last year you could have been writing Cake slash. Not so much slash to be written this year unless you're a Rymon shipper, esp. with Ryan kissing Simon this week and freaking them all out.
In conclusion, David Cook FTW. He had me at "vocabulary geek" during Hollywood Week :D

I don't suppose any of them were actually good?

Now, you know. Dean totally watches AI. His favorite performer has sprouted wings and this is TOTALLY something the Winchesters could help with.
Sam: ...
