SIMPLY NOT IMPRESSED YET

They always say admitting it is the first step. So, here it goes......

I am really not impressed all that much with most of the contestants on American Idol this year. I do have my favorites, don't get me wrong, but other than a few, WOW. I'm hoping I feel different soon. As I mentioned in a previous post, I am an American Idol freak and so wish I felt otherwise this early in the competition.

I AM faithful and make a point to do nothing else when Idol is on. As a matter of fact, I keep a notebook next to my recliner and log the singers names and we mark them with a Y (yes) M (maybe) or N (no) after they sing. It's just a way to keep track of who is who and what is what.

Tonight we'll find out who the 2 guys and 2 girls are to be voted off this week. I always feel bad for whoever goes, even if I didn't care for them. Speaking of feeling bad....I just wanted to give DiDi a hug last night after she got such harsh comments from Randy, Simon, Ellen and Kara. She fought so hard not cry on stage. Could you imagine being so humiliated in front of hundreds of thousands of people? I'm not sure how they "keep their cool" sometimes. I realize that the judges are there for a reason, but it just breaks my heart when they dig so deep sometimes.

Until next time.....

RESULT NIGHT

At our house, we're American Idol freaks. We've been watching since Season 2. From January to May, we're glued to the television on Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Until they get to the top 10, we'll actually be glued on Thursday nights too for the results. Wow, that's a lot of American Idol.

The auditions have been over for awhile and those that survived advanced to Hollywood week. That, too has ended and the actual singing competition started this week. The top 12 girls sang on Tuesday and the top 12 guys sang on Wednesday. Tonight were the results with 2 girls and 2 guys getting voted off. Did your favorite advance? Mine did! Next week might be another story. You just never know with America voting. Quite honestly, I think America got it wrong for 3 out of 4 this week. Here are the 4 that got voted off this week.
