As Coach Miguelito said after the game, "Guys, with this win, I can confidently say that we remain... undefeated."  He pulled down his pants after that.  ;-)

When I talked to Joshua Henry, Gerard Canonico, and Brian Charles Johnson before this game, they all said that The Lion King softball team is good. I must admit, I got a little scared after the ( Read more... )

For the first time in American Idol history, the final three are THREE GUYS.

Danny Gokey, the pre-ordained; Kris Allen, the dark horse; and, Adam Lambert, the rock god.

And finally, for the first time since season 3, the winner was in the bottom 2 or 3 at least once.

I called this Final 3 - actually, Final FOUR with Allison Iraheta - weeks ago.  ( Read more... )

I have been waiting for this theme for a long time. After weeks (and seasons) of contestants making everyday pop songs "rock" because "that's my niche/genre", here it is... the real Rock and Roll week. Plus, we have Idol duets.

That was so fuckin' close.

Theme: Songs from the Year they are Born (SFTYTAB)

Adam Lambert - January 29, 1982

1982 is a FINE year for music. The musical "Cats" began its run on Broadway, spanning 18 years. Stevie Wonder and Paul McCartney released "Ebony and Ivory". Michael Jackson's "Thriller" album was released. The first compact discs appear in music stores in Asia ( Read more... )

Theme: Songs from the Year they are Born (SFTYTAB)

This is my favorite American Idol theme. SRSLY. Especially now that most of the contestants fall in the 80s era. I absolutely LOVED Season 4's take on SFTYTAB... 1975 was the year of "Bohemian Rhapsody" and Constantine Maroulis was only too glad to blow everyone away with his rendition of it; ( Read more... )

Aw... boring/fail week it is.

(I cheated and watched some of the performances on YouTube.)

Theme: Grand Ole Opry.

I'm sorry, but Randy Travis? I don't know who he is. The only time I saw him is on "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition".

I cannot believe that I'm fangirly-ing over an American Idol contestant... again! After four seasons!
