OK, you Idol fans--what did you think about tonight's performances? (Don't say you never watch American Idol, because not long ago quite a few MOCers had a pretty good conversation going about who was in, who was out, and who should be going out!
)
Here's my critique: Paula was in lala land. Maybe there's some truth in those rumors after all. Simon was gorgeous, as always. Randy was Randy--steady.
Now for the contestants: David Cook and David Archuleta were great, again. Syesha was good, but I see her as a successful Broadway musical star, not as an American Idol. Brooke was mediocre on her first song, good on her second song. I see her as a great niche performer (which niche, I don't know), but not as an American Idol. Like Syesha, she's not as versatile as the other performers. Jason Castro? Sigh . . . trust me, the teeny-boppers will keep him on the show until the bitter end. Once again, all I've heard at school since last week is "Ooooo, his eyes! Oooooo, his dreadlocks! He's gorgeous."
I predict the bottom two will be Syesha and Brooke or Jason and Brooke. However the cookie crumbles, I think the teenage girls will save Jason again this week. What do you think?
