American Idol Season 6 (2007)

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm so over Idol....... first of all Melinda was eliminated and she was the best singer. This show doesn't feel like the finale.......it feels like every other show this season. Nothing special........

I was thinking that too.

All the performances were dull dull dull except for Jordin's last performance. She completely nailed it and she's going to win hands down no contest.

Yeah, overall this season was.......blah.

Sadness, tomorrow's my last day for my Blake avatars.........

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well thank god this season is over. Something I noticed since the 2005 season.. an African American has yet to appear in the finale. And the ones that have appeared in the finale have been terrible. Although Jordin is half black, so I guess that would count as the trend ending I assume... but not fully black.

Anywayz.... Jordin killed the ending. If she doesn't win, she has a great future ahead.

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I loved Blakes first two performances and Jordin's last one. That sparklie sweater vest was a bit distracting but not as distracting as blake's huge bulge!

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL Paula was the most McDrunky she's ever been tonight!

Sometime in the first half of the show when Ryan asked her who she liked she said it's a "beautiful tie"

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's pretty bogus when people say some of the contestants can't sing or their voice sucks just because they don't like their style (Especially if the contestant sings ontune in most of their songs). It might be understandable if they said that about Antonella or Sanjaya because they're mad that they got farther than they should but everyone in the top 24 can sing whether you like their style and voice or not. Even Antonella and Sanjaya could sing better than pretty much all of us and can probably sound good if they worked on it.

People shouldn't get mad and say someone can't sing just because they're getting better compliments and is a threat to their favorite. I never like Melinda and Lakisha's style of singing, their boring performances and that they always sing gospel but I never said they can't sing. Yes, Blake and Chris are good singers whether you like their voices or not.

Well, I don't agree with you at all. And so what, does it really matter? We all have opinions and my opinion is that Antonella SUCKED, shouldn't have been in the top 12 and definitely needed to go home VERY soon.

Sanjaya was a bit better when it came to singing but he was pretty average. An average singer should NOT be in the final 12. So that pissed me off a bit. And don't get me fucking started on Blake. Most of the time, that beatboxing just doesn't work. Tonight on one of the songs I'll admit that it was nice to see him blend with the drummer well. But my main point is that Blake should have went home after Sanjaya did. Can't believe his ass made it that far.

I'll stop rambling now but I could go on and on and on like you did!

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

^^^^^ i'm sorry but your last two posts made me wonder if you have a life with all this "waiting for him to fall on his face"....."having an affair with Paula?"...You are reading sooooooooooooo much into a T.V. show. Do you find that sad? I have watched on and off during this season but not made it my life! anyway, who picks these final songs these people sing anyway? That song was not radio friendly or it was a bit country or something but the song sucked!!! I last saw the final two when it was Kelly and Justin and that final song also sucked. Do they do this every season with making them sing these weird inspirational songs?

They always make them sing a sappy ballad they've commissioned in the hopes it'll become a hit and make the AI producers a lot of money. Only Kelly and Fantasia, of the winners, have any luck with that. Last year Taylor Hicks (who won) refused to sing it and they let him sing a different (but equally horrible) song.

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's because she falls for at least one guy each season. She always does it and it becomes so freakin obvious every time! She gets that lovestruck look and does everything she can to make them sound like it's insane they can't be the winner right then. It's extremely annoying and I often mute her.

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jordin wins,she's only 17 and after a couple sappy,bland commercial pap crap,she can do a Kelly and sing what she wants.She did all she could with the song,and made it briefly bearable....Blake you can see wanted NO part of that song....it just is mind boggling that year after year of the same insipid,lifeless and drecky horse manure ballads,they succeed yet again in sinking to the depths of black hole songwriting hackery to prove amateurs can be as horrid as professionals!Kelly's was the only one that was decent comparatively,and it wasn't good to begin with.They look for the next pop star and write and produce the most life sucking material for them....at least Kelly is fighting to do her own material,Fantasia is going beyond the marketing and packaging crap to emerge as a well received Broadway star in "The Color Purple"...Jennifer Hudson is doing quite well for herself after her best supporting actress Oscar...Carrie Underwood is doing very well establishing herself in the country market.

Did anyone notice there was a line in the song that Chris Daughtry was singing tonight(I never really loved him,though...hot in jeans he may be)"Be careful what you wish for,you might just get it" or something like that....I don't think it was meant in irony,but Jordin may feel the pain for her first couple releases!

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, they do it every year.

Meanwhile, your general attitude towards me? Fuck off. I didn't say a word to you, personally, and then you reply to me like that? I posted about the show (as, you know, you're SUPPOSED TO DO in this thread), and you posted negatively about me, personally. You should work on that. You should also work on your capitalization and punctuation skills.

No, the show is not my life. I don't even start watching the show until, like, the final five or so. It airs, what, twice a week? It's fairly impossible to make the show one's life. In fact, I generally hate the show and its politics. The only reason I really bothered to follow the final few weeks of it so closely this year is because I'm rather impressed with Jordin, whereas in past years I couldn't have possibly cared less who really won. 'Tis all!

All that said, the little comic book characters in your gallery are adorable! Very macho.

Your avatar is very butch and using the fraze "skinny bitch" in your profile shows how macho you are. if you were worth capitalization and punctuation I would do it. Now go back and watch t.v. with your granny while I snuggle with my bf.

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why is every post of yours that I read always directed toward race?

ummm.. it really wasn't a race issue. I was just pointing out the obvious. I'm sure it came across many peoples minds.

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jordin killed it tonight! I voted for the second time this season (i sent in a text vote for Jordin last week)....i voted on the phone tonight around 14 times....this is the first season i've watched fully since the first season and it's the same AMAZING female....shitty, boring male singer.

Jordin better win this or i'ma be pissed!

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't agree that America got both of the final 2 right. Not if, as Simon and Randy so adamantly put it, this IS a singing competition. If it were, it wouldn't matter who is more marketable. Being the best singer doesn't make you marketable.

As for the voted-off contestants, I look forward to hearing more from Gina. She is a good rocker and I hope she doesn't give up. A CD by her would sell great, being able to sing what she wants.

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's true, but a part of performing you are forgetting is consistency. To be a great performer, you must perform great consistently. I was always enjoying her music, sometimes a bit bored, but nevertheless good. Blake and Jordin both had more than one not so good, or even bad, performance. Melinda had I think one that wasn't really good. She was always getting the notes, but i'll admit some of her performances were boring.

For one, Blake is indeed an entertainer, but people will tire of the beatboxing. It's unique, but it won't last long as something people want to listen to.

Jordin's voice has cracked or jumped because of the pressure of the singing on her voice. She has had some knockout performances, but her voice has been unable to handle some of them. I don't know if her voice is not done changing or if she simply can't control it enough.

I also would note that the only thing that made almost all of Blake's performances original was the beat boxing, and I never liked it. In fact, of the many people I know personally who watch, nobody liked it. Jordin has had few actual original performances. Blake and Jordin both lost my attention more than once during this competition. They never put me to sleep because if I didn't like it that much, I did something else while they were singing. I never once got up and left during a Melinda performance, and I was never bored by one.

Yes, they can both perform and entertain, but it was not enough to distract me from the problems in their voices. Like Blake's problems with She Will Be Loved. He never hit the high notes right. It was refreshing, though, to have him NOT beat box.

Me too, Gina was my favorite this season. She should have at least been in the top four.

Anyways, Jordin's gonna win. Not only did she obliterate Blake on the show but according to DialIdol, she won every single eastern and southern state except for Arkansas, not to mention the majority of the midwest, Texas, Arizona and California. She even won Washington and that's Blake's home state!

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LoL, there are so many complaints that Jordin doesn't put on enough of a stage show.

Why does it matter whether she stands in one place and performs or runs all over hell's half acre? Celine Dion stands in one place and sings... she's, perhaps, the most famous female musician on the planet!

Did everyone see her performance of "Rhythm Is Gonna Get You?" She moved around, she danced a bit... she was fantastic! She CAN move around, when she feels the need to do so. It just so happens that the majority of her songs are really vocal songs that require the best voice possible. Moving around and putting on a stage show compromises that sometimes -- as Blake has proven -- and so Jordin has made the smarter move of standing still and just belting it out. I don't go to concerts to see the dancing, I go to hear the MUSIC!

The only reason Blake puts on a stage show, IMO, is to make up for flawed vocals. He thinks it will divert attention away from his voice and people won't notice his severe lack of range. The boy can beatbox, and yes he can sing... but he's not good enough at the latter to win the competition, deservingly.

I could get up on stage and jump around or put on a fantastic, energetic stage show. Anyone can! That doesn't make Blake unique, or a standout in any way. The vocals are where the real gold lies. Fortunately for Jordin, she has them... Blake falls short.

I agree. It's just the same crap Carrie got two years ago.

Re: AMERICAN IDOL 6 Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I won't be watching the finale tonight. Bringing in Taylor Hicks...can't he just fade away?!

And Sajnaya...*shudder*

More beatboxing...it's old and i'm already tired of it.

Jordin won, at least I think so.. If not Melinda, then I think Jordin was the best choice, despite I don't see her around for very long either.
