Salt Lake City, Utah, where David Archuleta was born.

First up was a man whose dad was one of the Osmond brothers. The judges said that he made a big mistake on the choice of song. My dad said he was Top 10 material, and he went through.

Tara, a goth psychic said that she could predict when a family member would die. She said that she had a good feeling that she would win. She stopped singing, and then started again when the judges didn’t say anything. “It sounded just like a baby.” Simon said. I didn’t like her either. Tara flashed the finger as she walked out of the door.

Frankie Jordan sang really well. I thought that she had a good choice of song. “I quite like your voice… I’m gonna say yes.” She was one of the many who received a golden ticket in Utah.

A birthday comes to Idol! A stay-at-home mother, she is has a very unique voice. It goes up and down, sort of squeaky. I like it… “I like you… I think I’m bordering on loving you…. yeah, I think I love you… love you! Paula gushed. Top 10, my dad said.

I loved the girl, 16, from Utah. “You really worked hard, huh?” Kara said. Randy said that she had incredible natural potential. “This ticket means the world to me.” she said. My dad says she will be in the Top 20.

A sob story about a small-town girl in Idaho whose dad died ended the show. Her mom got into a car accident, too. Awwww….

Whatev.

Gotta do homework, sorry. Goodnight!

Jacksonville, Florida!!!! I always thought that Jacksonville was in Arkansas… anyway, it’s where Randy Jackson made his name.

Sharon Wilber and her dog, Sasha charmed the judges when they first walked in. I thought that she was pretty good. Simon and Randy said yes, and then Kara covered her mouth and Paula attacked her and kissed her on the lips. Kara said that Kara thought she would be kissed by Simon, not Paula. Sharon went through to Hollywood.

Dana Moreno, 24, thought she was good, but Simon gave her directions out the door. “Right, then right.” Next were two 16-year-old girls. The first suc*ed, and the second was AWESOME!!!!!

‘Night!
