American Idol 8 Top 10 results. “I love you, guacamole! And kittens! And Joss Whedon!”
This is American Idol. And I’m feeling all crappy, so I don’t even care. I already got spoiled (please don’t post results in my comments before I blog them! Mwah!), and I can hardly breathe because my throat is goopy and sore.
The good news is, I get to fast forward through Ruben Studdard.
LOL, thanks Ryan! “I’ve got three words for ya. Kara DioGuardi.” Hahahahahahaha. He counts as well as she does.
Oh, boo. I’m so sorry to hear that Simon’s bit on the Tonight Show about blowing off President Obama was a joke.
I totally thought it was serious, and I loved him even more for it. “I’m sorr-ey, Mr. President, but I cahn’t be bothahed with you Americans. I’m very important and have to rewatch Idol on the Tivo. Off you go.” I really wanted that to be real. Sigh. I wonder if the bit about the Queen’s husband was a joke? Because that seemed real…
Oh wow. Cadet Happy’s right. They *do* lipsync during the medley numbers. Sigh.
Ford commercial is… there are hybrids. The song is “Pocketful of Sunshine.”
Oh look! Ruben Studdard is on to sing, and my fast forward button works. Yay for that.
Adam is safe.
Matt is in the bottom three! Whoa. I didn’t see that coming. ALICE: I didn’t see it coming either. Can we fire Kahra already?
Kris, a guy, is safe.
Lil is safe.
Michael is in the bottom three.
I think the worst thing about being in the bottom three would be having to sit on the Tool Stools.
Joss Stone + Smokey Robinson to perform. Joss is cracking me up with her ridiculous faces and dancing. And during the harmony parts, it’s quite pitchydawg. Also, this is incredibly boring but for Joss’s pulling of faces and Smokey’s gloriously pulled face. Seriously, I think Joss is on mushrooms or something. Mushrooms so strong that I’m hallucinating through the TV. Wow, that was awful.
Allison, wearing June Cleaver’s kitchen curtains, is safe.
Anoop is safe. I DON’T GET IT. SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN IT TO ME.
Danny’s safe! Yay!
Scott is in the bottom three.
Megan is safe.
Sigh. Alice, I’m always betting on you. ALICE: I’m sorry! It’s that harlot werewolf who stole your job! What do you want me to do?! SARAHK: You’re right. Let’s blame Kahra. It’s all Kahra’s fault.
Ryan asks who doesn’t deserve to be in the bottom three of Matt, Scott, Michael. Randy says Matt. But Scott gets sent back to the comfy chairs.
Ryan asks Simon why the bottom two are where they are. “Because America don’t like you very much.”
Stevie is out to do a Motown medley. In case y’all have gotten the wrong impression, I actually love Stevie Wonder. I just think his songs should never be done on Idol, because suckitude always ensues. He *is* pitchydawg tonight, though. See, that’s what Scott needs. Sunglasses. Do away with the far-away stare to nowhere, and you gain even more fans. There’s a reason all the blind guys do it. “I love you, Barack Obama!” And what did that have to do with anything? You know what I love? Guacamole. But I’m not gonna go on the world’s most popular show and shout, “I love you, guacamole!” during a song. Or even, “I love you, Spike!” SPIKE: Do you mean that, love? SARAHK: Well, no. But you’re way awesomer than Obama.
Matt is safe.
Michael sings for his supper. The judges won’t save him, even if he blows it out da box. He’s done singing, and Simon says they haven’t decided. They’re all clamoring, and the girls are all excited about him, and Simon says, “I’m gonna make a decision. Michael, you’re going home.” See this in my hand, Michael? It’s your hopes and dreams. Watch as I crush them. Off you go.

Sorry you’re feeling crappy :( I watched Stevie until his Obama comment, then I forwarded. Why can’t entertainers just shut up already?
Glad it was Micheal that went home…he should have never been in the top 12 to begin with.

Always had a fondness for the oilrigger but, yeah, time for him to go. It’s less sad when you know they get to have a fun year on tour.
Prediction: The TOTUS has been named 4 times on the show so far - plus Simon on latenight talk show creating false controversy about snubbing the White House. This is all an intentional set-up for a Very Special visit from the Permanent Campaign. Watch for it.
Irony Alert: The most unapologetic, mercenary capitalist (Cowell) in a lovefest with a thieving marxist (PBo). Will someone explain that to a plebe like me ’cause I’ll have to look away.

Why do they feel the need to make the blind guy act like he isn’t blind? The Ford commercials and group sings have him dancing around like he knows what he looks like. Wasn’t it bad enough they put him in pink pants and told him right before he went on stage? I wish they had him driving the car in the commercial instead of just helping to put a poster together. It is completely stupid and shows how little the producers of this show get life outside of AI. But here I am typing about it so what does that say about my life.
LOL on your comments, hope you feel better soon. Stevie: I LOVE KRAFT MAC AND CHEESE

Jodi - that would actually be hilarious if they had Scott driving. Or, if they insist on being political, have Scott sit at his piano with teleprompters on either side of him. Nobody dares do something like that because of all the knicker twisting that results.
It was either a real commercial or an SNL parody (i forget which) that had Stevie Wonder playing tennis and snapping pictures - it wasn’t with Agassi, I think it was with MacEnroe. At the end Mac snaps a pic of Stevie and Stevie casually reaches up and pulls off the lens cap.

Bad me for spoilers… sorry… really…
but I did explain Anoop earlier. Indian has about 1/6th the world population, just behind China. Many of those people have migrated here and relate to Anoop. And several more in India seem to have access to US phone lines, as I observe when I call for customer service. Anoop’s going to get votes, just like Sanjaya. And as long as AI producers are British, you can count on someone from the other colony getting a spot in the final rounds.
Michael knew last week the judges wouldn’t save him. I don’t even believe Pahler or Kahra wanted to save him. He just didn’t bring it last week when given the gift of CW week. He’s not going to get better in Motown week.

There was positively zero reason for Matt G to be in the bottom three. That was just ridiculous.
I FFW through Ruben too. However, I discovered that I think he sweats more than any other human being on the planet. And he was just standing there. I know this because his head got progressively shinier as I was frantically mashing the FFW button.
I was thoroughly enjoying Stevie until his USELESS Obama lovefest. In fact, my fiance and I both simultaneously said, “what does that have to do with anything?” I get tired of people thinking he’s the savior of the world. So far he’s done nothing but make things worse. Including infiltrating a perfectly nonpolitical American Idol….grrr….

I’m sad that you didn’t dis Lil for her Obama comment.
