So. Everyone out there who have ears know that Paula Abdul has left Idol. But the thing is, people are wondering who her replacement will be. Don’t you people get it? Kara DioGuardi is her replacement! Okay, sure, Paula and Kara are “friends” and they were happy to be judging together for one season. But the four judges thing? It just doesn’t work.

What really surprises me is that people want Paula instead of Kara. Why? Because Paula is more qualified? Because she has been on the show for so long? Face the facts, people: Kara has written and co-written countless songs. She can sing. If she doesn’t like how someone sang, she can go back and sing it for them the right way. 

And Paula? Nothing.

But the decision is final. On the Idol website, under “Judges Bios”, Paula is gone. There is a Simon Bio, a Randy bio, a Kara bio, and even a Ryan Bio. but no Paula.

It would not surprise me if the brought Paula back for a surprise twist, but for now, bye, Paula!

Yay Adam!…..Oops, I mean Kris

The winner takes it all, and Kris Allen is our new American Idol.

Lots of rumours are going around that the winner was pre-selected. While I agree that Adam was a better candidate than Kris, Adam is now free to come up with songs and records without being bound to the American Idol contract.

American Idol- “Top 36-2nd Dozen”

So in this round are Jasmine Murray and Adam Lambert, two people who I predicted would be in the top 12. Lets see how that will work out for me.

Again, three people get through out of the 12 who perform. The most popular girl, the most popular guy, and the next highest vote-getter. 

I think that for the first round, the contestants were told to sing a popular song. Some examples are “Love Song,” and “Viva la Vida.” Even though some of these songs are good, they’re the wrong songs for the contestants.

The people who went through are:

Kris Allen

Adam Lambert (yay)

and Allison Irahea (she’s really good)

THE END

American Idol- “Judge’s Mansion”

There’ only 54 left. The final cuts are being made at the new judge’s mansion. At the end of the day, there will only be 36 contestants left.

He new mansion is beautiful; with paintings and murals and colorful tapestry.

This season they’re doing something new- to help the judges make up their minds, some people will participate in a last-minute sing off. Adam Lambert, whom I predicted would go on into the top 12, made it into the top 36.

Jasmine Murray (the one who sounds like Jordin Sparks) and Stevie Wright (she’s pretty good, also) made it, too.

Another person who I liked was Kendall Beard. She made it through. I think that the judges are running out of suspenseful phrases… they said, “the news isn’t good, it’s great,” twice.

Simon kept cutting people shot and looking bored, while Paula is bubbly and excited; she kept asking people how they were feeling. They were fighting about intentions: “You’re gonna just put her through because of her attractiveness? Well, why don’t we bring some models in and you can put them all through?” Paula asked Simon. “Okay!” Randy smiled.

Alexis Grace is amazing… I think that she will do really well; she made it into the top 36.

Scott Macintyre is visually impaired, but that doesn’t stop him from singing. He was the other person that I had predicted would go into the top 12, and he made it into the top 36.

Something Del Toro (I forgot her first name) the really annoying girl made it through. She REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY needs to go home.

Bye!

American Idol- “Hollywood Round 3″

Only 72 people are left in Hollywood.

The contestants will perform solo with a band, backup singers, and if they wish, instruments. At the end they will be split up into rooms and be told if the whole room will go through, or go home.

Adam Lambert was first after drawing a number out of a hat. My dad said he was phenomenal, but I thought he stank.

There is one blind man who I thought was the best of the night- he sang “Home” by Daughtry, a song that I love.

Tatiana Del Toro is the most annoying person on the show. She sang a total of nine songs for the entire season, even when she only was supposed to sing 4.

Jasmine Murray, who sounds like Jordin Sparks, sang a song by Jordin; “Tattoo”.

You would think people would remember the lyrics of a song.

I loved Lanetie Young. I think that she, along with Adam Lambert and the blind dude will go to the top 12 or at least the top 24.

What I noticed was that the producers of American Idol showed mostly people who sang popular songs; “Tattoo”, “Love Song”, “Home”, “Disturbia”, and “Believe”.

Room 1 containing Adam Lambert and the blind guy went through.

Room 2 with Jasmine Murray went through.

Room 3 with Michael Castro and Lanetie Young didn’t go through. My prediction was wrong.

The last Room, Room 4, was the most anxious to know what their fate was. Tatiana was in that room, crying and begging the judges to put her through. One guy raised his hand and said, “So it is a NO, right?” “No, it’s a yes.” Paula smiles.

‘Night! 

American Idol- “Hollywood Round 2″

The contestants perform in groups at the Kodak Theater.

The show starts with people having trouble forming groups; at 11:15 pm people are still up practicing. Rose from last night is having trouble dealing with the people in her group. Others are also having troubles: “If you keep going off key then you’re a bad singer.” “You need to be more sensitive.”

Finally at 1 am, some people go to bed. But someone named Tatiana is joining and leaving groups. She keeps finding flaws in her peers and fights with a woman with bright dyed red hair.”We don’t need to be that dramatic… group hug!” some people say.

The next day, some groups have gone without sleep. People deal with lack of sleep in a lot of different ways. Some people “they’re just walking around with blank looks on their faces”. One woman wasn’t feeling too well and just stayed in bed while her group practiced. Most of the contestants, though, just had to tough it out.

“Forget the words, you’re out.” Simon stated before the 100 people performed. I don’t think that rapping will get you into the next round (the woman in group 1). They sang a pretty harmony and all of them went through.

Some contestants sang the wrong words (”doot-doo” instead of “you two”) and were eliminated.

I thought that Emily Wyne (with the pink hair and the green hat) and her group were pretty bad. Half of them went through, Emily went home. 

I loved when they showed Paula with evil laser eyes… that was pretty funny.

Looks like Simon isn’t really enjoying the contestants… “Horrible… excruciating… they’re all crap… that was an absolute total mess… chaotic… it’s like a succession of horrors… useless…has anyone got any advil?”

The group with Rose Flack, Jasmine the girl who sounds like Jordin Sparks, and Katrina the bikini girl did alright. Katrina and Rose went home, only Jasmine went though. Jasmine will go pretty far… maybe the top 20.

BYE BYE KATRINA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bugs Bunny: Crunch, crunch, crunch… thats all, folks!
