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?
American Idol’s ratings are down and I am wondering if Fox is starting to feel it and cutting back on the changes that were made for the show this season. The show has just finished the audition phase and most of the Hollywood round and will start the brand new Vegas round on the show tomorrow. Tomorrow’s episode in Vegas where the contestants perform songs from The Beatles was slated to go two hours and then on Thursday the Top 20 would be revealed in another two hour episode.
Well today returning EP Nigel Lythgoe Tweeted, “Because of all the Drama in the #AmericanIdol green mile show we have been asked to cut the Beatles Vegas Challenge to 1 hour instead of 2!! #AmericanIdol on Wednesday is a 1 hour Beatle Challenge and then 1 hour of choosing the top 20 up until JLo breaks down and can’t continue!” and then added, “I truly hope #SYTYCD in Atlanta goes smoothly today I have to get back to #AmericanIdol in LA at the latest tonight!!? We have a great team.”
I wonder what happened that they didn’t like what went on in Vegas and the Top 20 selection shows that the two-day, four-hour episodes were cut down to one-day in two hours. What will they air on Thursday? A Glee repeat? Seriously I really want to know why they are making such a drastic change so close to air. Maybe 36 hours seem like a day and a half away, but to me it sounds like their are some internal problems with the Idol changes. Just me reading into something that probably doesn’t need to be read into…
Things that make me thankful about his Tweets, is it good to know that I am not the only one feeling this season…
