AI Group 2 and Lost Thoughts

AI thoughts:
I’m not impressed with anybody from last night and was actually bored. I’m sure a lot of these singers are talented and did well in earlier auditions, but based on last night’s performance, they all did horrible. Poor song choice or pitch problems seemed to have been the theme last night. Although I have to say Adam Lambert does have an amazing vocal range and can really belt out those high notes better than some girls. But the most entertaining by far was Nick Mitchell/Nick Gentle. Hubby and I are actually hoping he makes it through the next round! He actually doesn't have a bad voice, but Dan's motivation for him going through is to prove that this show is a sham.

I was not thrilled with the new format this year as I was worried if there were too many good singers in one group, it would be hard to pick only the top 3 to go to the next round. Looks like I don't have to worry about that so far. Let's hope next week's group is better.


Lost thoughts:
-So, it looks like the Losties are changing history as Charles Widmore remembers Lock when he was 17. I wonder why Danielle doesn’t remember Jin when we met her in earlier seasons then? This time travel is getting me dizzy.
-Is there anybody Locke doesn’t fall for? He’s so gullible and falls for the tricks of his father, those drug dealers, Matthew Abaddon, Ben, Mr. Eko, Richard, Daniel Faraday, and Christian. I wish they’d explain why Locke is so special.
-How did Kate, Jack, Hurley, Sayid & Sun get back to the island without Aaron? Didn’t all 6 of them need to be on the plane?
-I can’t believe how big Walt is. I saw the actor on a Tyson’s chicken commercial and was worried he wasn’t coming back to Lost!
-Abaddon is so creepy in this show and on Fox’s Fringe. But when the actor speaks in interviews, he sounds so normal and not so creepy/mysterious!
-Is Helen really dead or is this a setup for Locke to go back to the island?
-Did Ben kill Locke so that he can be resurrected on the island or to take back control of the Others? What was it about Eloise Hawking that made Ben decide to kill Locke?
-Hard to believe who we can trust – Widmore, Ben??? Anyone, anyone?
-How were Hurley, Sayid, Sun and Kate convinced to come on the plane? Loved it last week when the pilot realized they weren't going to Guam!

So many questions….I hope they don’t bring too many new characters, especially unnecessary ones like they did with Nikki and Paolo.

First AI Top 3

I'm thrilled that Alexis Grace and Danny Gokey made it past this round as I thought they did the best last night. I was ready to scream if crazy Tatiana went through, but I should have known the producers did that for more drama. I'm neutral on Michael Sarver. I was hoping it would be Anoop..maybe he'll come back in the wild card. But the real loss was Danny's friend Jamar...he should have been in the top 36! The women last night was really disappointing. Let's hope next week is better. Bye bye drama queen Tatiana!

Bikini girl

So far, nobody has stood out for me yet on American Idol. I do have one rant though about the bikini girl….that girl cannot sing and yet she got through another round because of her body. She clearly went flat and was all over the place on that Faith Hill song as Paula and Kara said, but of course Randy and Simon were too busy salivating over her and remembering her in her bikini. Clearly other singers who didn’t make it to the next round were much better than her….what kind of message are they sending to young girls?!! This show has had its controversy and the most talented never wins or even makes it to the top 12. But this girl just sickens me with her little smirk, knowing that she got through undeservedly. And her making out with Ryan Seacrest is just even more disgusting….clearly this girl knows how to get ratings and attention. I do feel a little sorry for her as she’s clearly insecure and has to use her body to get what she wants. Having a daughter now just makes me think how to raise her in this shallow world, where looks are unfortunately important to a lot of people.
