Next week the final 6 contestants of American Idol are going to sing the songs of Carole King and I want to know who she f*cked to get a theme week on the show. I mean how else would she have gotten it? Seriously I need an explanation because there are so many other artists I can think of before her for getting a theme week on the #1 show in America.
I would love to have been in the room when they told contestants whose repertoire of music they were going to choose from because if they are like me, they are like I heard the name, but what the f*ck does she sing? I even went to Wikipedia and looked at her discography and was like I know maybe 3 of the songs. I feel bad for the contestants because they are told to be current and they are given a singer whose music started to come out before their parents were born. Isn’t bad enough that they have had to suffer through Steven Tyler’s Creepy Leers of the Night?
Seriously what were the producers of the show thinking when they picked her name out of hat? I mean the ratings have been slipping every week, do they want to go down faster than I am assuming Pia Toscano did on Dancing with the Stars’ Mark Ballas. (I am not saying she did, I just needed a reference and that one worked…)
Now back to Carole King, I am not dismissing her extraordinary career, it is just that I don’t think she is good fit for American Idol. What do you think of her music as a theme week on the singing competition?
For weeks I have been wondering why the judges saved Casey Abrams on American Idol and now I am glad that they did. It is not because of his singing, but because he kissed J-Lo. And the best part is Jenny from the Block didn’t look happy that he invaded her personal space and gave her a peck on her cheek. Although she did tell the world that he had soft lips.
But it didn’t stop there because Steven Tyler was so jealous he dropped words that weren’t family friendly in his critique. The Aerosmith singer said, “You already are a cult hero, I mean there’s millions of people in America that are really angry, because you p!ssed them off because you’re so f*cking good.” That is not why we are p!ssed, it is because up until last night we didn’t see what you see in him. In fact I can’t wait for this season to end because even though they might have strong voices, they still pick boring songs.
Now over to the contestants where Casey Abrams should’ve been with, you know the eliminated ones, after hearing them all sing P!nk’s So What together I think it is obvious why none of them are still on the show.
Days before this season of American Idol started Casey Abrams was hospitalized and then again after the show started, so you think they would have extra precautions for him for his safety and their pocketbooks. Well tonight the bearded singer received the lowest amount of votes and was technically eliminated, but the judges decided to use their save on him and he looked like someone really needed to save him. He nearly collapsed, but some how maintained consciences long enough to thank and hug the judges and his parents before amazingly mustering the strength to stand next to Ryan Seacrest. But that was not all the excitement for him tonight because Ryan announced that all 11 of them were going to go on tour. At that point, he looked like he was ready to make his third trip to the hospital this season. Seriously is American Idol trying to kill because he looked like he was ready to be the first American Idol contestant in the sky.
Now when it comes to judges using their save on him, I think it was a mistake because I think he is overrated. Although he did earn some bonus points in book for handling the reward from the judges with such graciousness.
The American Idol top 11 contestants have reportedly moved out of their mansion because they fear it is haunted. According to TMZ, several of them claimed that lights flickered uncontrollably and they had an infestation of spiders. But that was nothing as compared to last week when several of them say they saw a bed sheet lift up and float down an empty hallway. But the final nail in the coffin for them was something that could easily be explained, due to all the rain on Sunday they discovered their roof was leaking. So now the Top 11 have been moved to an undisclosed dry and hopefully ghost free location. Personally I think the ghost has a name…and it is Paula Abdul! Can’t you see her trying to get her way back on the show anyway she can?
This is not the first time that American Idol contestants have complained about ghosts haunting where they lived, two years ago they claimed their residence was inhabited by a spirit named Phyllis.
Maybe American Idol should change their theme song to Ghostbusters? Or better yet I wonder if the group number tonight on Fox at 8p will be Ray Parker’s theme song for the movie? It’s a Motown song, right?
Yesterday on American Idol Paul McDonald sang Smokey Robinson’s Track of My Tears and on Jimmy Kimmel Live they pointed out he might have sang a lyric wrong. When Smokey Sings (wait that’s another song) the song he sings, “I’m masquerading”, but it sounds like when McDonald did it he sang, “I’m masturbating.” You listen to it and be the judge. I am agreeing with JKL and going with masturbating which gives a whole new meaning to Track of My Tears…
BTW am I the only who thinks he looks like a member of the Bee Gees?
