American Idle

And Dave chimes in:

A lot of people in Vegas lost money tonight.

Chris Daughtry being voted off is an example of my assertion that American Idol is a complete joke. When you ask fickle Americans to vote for anything, you never know WHAT you'll get. Look at the elections... we can't even get out en masse to vote for who'll run the country.

Here's a shocker, women don't like Katharine McPhee. Ladies... regarding Katharine, pull the cotton out of your ears. Her voice is absolutely the purest female voice we've seen on AI - ever. Katharine was always my choice for second place. From here, if it's just about pure, unadulterated vocal talent and star quality, Katharine will win... IF the female voting public can overcome their jealousy and cattiness. ;)

(regarding Kat forgetting the lyrics, even Elvis forgot his OWN lyrics sometimes... there is video to prove it)

I think Taylor's stage presence and "likeability" will take him to second. I don't think goat-boy Elliot has a shot. Although he's a talented singer, he has little star-quality. If he ends up the winner, it will be a record company's nightmare and AI will be confirmed as a sham...

But arguably, that's been proven already.

I love it when Elvis sings the one song (I think it's "In the Ghetto") and he starts cracking up towards the end and laughs the rest of the way through it. I laugh along every time.

I soo agree with you Dave. I honestly thought since they had Taylor sing, the he and Elliot were the bottom 2. I could not have phathomed Chris and Cat. I was in utter dismay! Still am...

Can you believe that!!! At least they all end up with recording deals....it all works out! He did look royally pissed!!! I just want to hear a contestant say, when Ryan asks if they are suprised, "You've got to be F***ing KIDDING ME!?!"

I like Katharine and still do. I was even rooting for her before Chris got voted off. But, maybe that's just because I think she's totally hot. Which is why some women hate her.

I like Kat too and have from the very beginning. I do hope that she wins. Don't get me wrong, I liked Chris as well and was shocked that he wasn't in the top two. At least he has still made a name for himself and he'll probably be recording soon anyway.
