Results - New Top 3

Well my dear forum friends, last night there was an unjust event on the American Idol stage. Hokey Gokey has stayed on despite the scream heard around the world, and our Allison who can wail like none other, has left the building. My old favorite Chris Daughtry performed with his band and he can sure sing. And the band No Doubt with Gwen Stefani is back in action going on a tour apparently. This song and performance so reminded me of watching her on MTV's spring Break spectacular 13 years ago in 1996, my senior year.. she was a spaz then and she's still a spaz,, but it's weird now because she has two kids and she's turning 40 this year. I think it might be time to settle it? or not? I can't decide with her. She sounded terrible and winded by the way.
And last but not least, let's discuss our favorite judge on the panel, Paula Abdul. She performed, she danced, she lip-synced, she is still entertaining? First of all, I just had to wikipedia her to find out her age... I am dying!! She is 47 years old next month! Way to go Paula on still looking like a youngster out there while having young men parade around you and carry you around the stage like a Cougar goddess. Despite the 'supposed' drug problems, babbling nonsense, and cleavage enhancing outfits every night,,, she's still got a little something on stage. (yes, I said it) The new single is a bit Brittney Spears-ish with the weird mic and such, but it could be a little catchy, it might be...... whatever it is though, it ain't no "Straight Up"... now that one takes me back.... 5th grade baby...

On a final discussion - I am massively unimpressed with the producers and judges this season for not pushing Allison more onto the voters. She had 1000 times more potential and talent than Lil whom they pushed and pushed til they realized there really ain't nothin' there to push.

We never really saw Allison til she surprised us all in the Top 36 with her Heart performance, and each week she knew who she was and never acted like a sheep, like so many others. She was critiqued on her clothes, her age, her personality, but none of them ever said this girl could make it to the finals. That is exactly where she belongs, next to Adam. What a show that would have been! Can you imagine Adam and Kris in the finals.... there's just no comparison, and no energy from Kris. Allison had the energy that makes you want to get up, jump, and play some Rock Band! I'm really sad about the whole thing.

So, for next week the Idols go to their home towns, cry over the attention, make me cry, and then get to sing two songs. One pick from the judges and one from their own personal list. I always like this show because the idols are legitimately overwhelmed with the attention they get from their new fandome of their new life. I remember David Archuletta and David Cook last year just crying at it all. So, we're coming to an end here folks, two more weeks and we'll find out who belongs in the question mark.....So exciting!
