And The Winner Is...

Well We'll find out in 2 hours! I just started watching it.

But I'll give you a run-down of the whole show as it goes.

Beginning with the opening number performed by the 10 contestants previously voted off, and can I just say... IT SUCKED!! I HATED IT! The highlight of that number was when the dance break happened and when Josh fell trying to be all cool. Just. Please!

Then Phil rocked the house with former CCR frontman Jon Fogerty. LOVED IT! Thanks Phil for bringing the TALENT back to the show. Just goes to show why you were voted into the final 2. I'm sure it has NOTHING to do with the fact that you're a cute WGWG (white guy with guitar) haha the past 3-4 years suggest the White Guy W/ a Guitar is the clear winner. First they sang Have You Ever Seen The Rain then into Bad Moon Rising. Right up Phil's alley. This is just a preview of what his CD should sound like. CCR mixed with Mumford & Sons.

The montage of all the horrible auditions and crazy antics  really wasn't needed. We saw it in the audition round. Thanks for wasting our time....

I take that back, this mess is hilarious! Keep. It. Going. 

Then there was the Josh Ledet & Fantasia disaster. Good Lord almighty what just happened. From her hair to the outfit to the voice. I just cannot handle this. If I were watching by myself I would be fast-forwarding. But alas... I am not so I must suffer. And then the producers got smart and cut them off & went to commercial. 

Thank you! THANK. YOU!

Dear Josh,

This is why you were eliminated. 

The End.

Thank you Jimmy for never getting J-Ho's name right. She doesn't deserve the time or energy. The she-devil. Go hide in a hole somewhere... 

Up next is the ladies of the top 12. I have not a clue what they sang, I just know the hook was sampled in a Kanye West song. Which is disappointing, but they sounded good. Then they sang I'm Every Women with Chaka Khan (who came out in a skin-tight brown something. My sister said she looked like a giant turd. I kinda agree! WHO DRESSES THESE PEOPLE???????) I liked Erika's hair better dark though. She shouldn't have messed with a good thing. I forgot about Shannon. There was a reason for that. She wasn't very good.

Can I just interject here for a second. I heard a rumor that my boo Philly Phil will be taken to the hospital right after the finale and will NOT be on the tour. Say WHAT? He better be there! I will cry forever if he's not. I'll donate both my kidneys if I have to.

Back to the show... Oh never mind. It's just dumb Rihanna. I just threw up in my mouth a little. That was an excellent lip sync job you did RiRi. Way to make a mockery of the very thing you do to make all your millions. (if you even make that much) But good job making sure you sound all out of breath like you actually did something out there. 

You get a gold star.

Steven Tyler's hysterical. 
Jessica Sanchez sang I Will Always Love You.

Guys of the top 12. Not sure this was a needed performance. So I'll skip it. 

Deandre better watch out in Detroit. I'm bringing my clippers.

Where's Neil Diamond????

That's right... Neil saves the day with Sweet Caroline.
Take notes guys.
And then they SANG THE PHONE BOOK!!!
Are you kidding me??


zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz of sorry JLo's on stage and I fell asleep. Excellent choice of outfits. Your hips look massive! I'm done.


Hollie Cavanagh & Jordin Sparks sang. and that's 5 minutes I wish I could have back.
Add another 6-7 for the Robin Gibb tribute. Sad for the loss, but It wasn't a good tribute.


Jessica Sanchez & Jennifer Holiday? I guess I missed that Jennifer Hudson didn't originally sing that song. My bad. Beautiful wig she's got on though. Kudos hair people.
How Jessica is NOT dying of laughter watching J. Holiday perform I will NEVER understand. That was hilarious! Sounded awesome, but the faces were killing me!


Then some Aerosmith thing happened and I fell asleep again.
Jessica & Phil sang a duet and my heart broke a little because you can tell just by looking at him that Phil really is not feeling well. 

They waited until the last 30 seconds of the TWO HOUR SHOW to announce the winner. And it ran over... SHOCKER!


And the winner is... *drum roll please*
ME!
Kidding


PHILLIP PHILLIPS WINS!


But I really win too, because Philly Phil was my choice to win and now I get a free dinner. 
The. End.

American Idol Round Up

Dear Randy,

Why try to speak when you don't know what you're trying to say. Spit. It. Out!

Sincerely,

Your Dawg Jess

Round 1 - Judges Picks

Josh Ledet - I'd Rather Go Blind - Etta James (Picked by Randy Jackson)

I really enjoyed this! Until he got to the "Baby, Baby, Baby" part and started on that growling garbage he does. You almost had a fan in me Josh... Almost.

Jessica Sanchez - My All - Mariah Carey (Picked by Jennifer Lopez)

Either her voice is going out, or she is trying to sing to low for her range. Either way I really feel like she dropped the ball on this one.

Phillip Phillips - Beggin' - The Four Seasons (Picked by Stephen Tyler)

As always... Phil's a boss. I loved it! I cannot wait for a Phillip Phillips CD.

Round 2 - Contestant Choice

*Josh's home visit - Long & Boring... Just sayin...*

Josh Ledet - Imagine - John Lennon

I love this song, and even with the growliness I still liked Josh's version. Definitely makes up for the first song.

*Jessica's Home Visit - Like the background music. But she bored me.*

Jessica Sanchez - I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing - Aerosmith

This was much better than her first song. The judges really should pick better songs!! Geeze J-lo... are you trying to cost her the competition???

*Phil's Home Visit - Loved. It. (Can you tell I'm biased?)*

Phillip Phillips - Disease - Matchbox 20

Again... I loved it. I really feel like they should just give Phil the title and be done with it! So much easier.

*Randy needs to be kicked off the panel. He makes no sense!*

Round 3 - Jimmy Iovine's Pick

Josh Ledet - No More Drama - Mary J. Blige
I love this song, and I feel that he did it justice. Didn't blow me away though. Then again, he never really has. So there's that.


Jessica Sanchez - I'll Be There - Jackson 5
Ok Jimmy gets major brownie points for picking this song! She did sing it very well. Best of her 3 performances.


Phillip Phillips - We've Got Tonight - Bob Seger
I. LOVE. THIS. SONG! Thank you Jimmy, you are my hero, and thank you Phillip for singing so brilliantly! Perfect way to end the show! Now everyone go vote for PHILLY PHIL!


My prediction:
I believe it will be Jessica Sanchez and (as much as I love him) Phil. I think Jessica will be going home. She just really dropped this week. FINAL 2 - Phil & Josh!

Night Ya'll!

American Idol: Results Show

Ok, I gave you my prediction last night. (because I actually watched the night it was on. Go. Me. :) And here is what I predicted:

Bottom 3: Hollie Cavanagh 

Josh Ledet 

& Jessica Sanchez. 

Eliminated: Hollie Cavanagh.

I'm about to start the show to see if I'm right. Just waiting on my slow poke mom to finish the performances. She seems to think my boy Philly Phil is in trouble. Oye! Silly mama... Ok here we go! 

J-Lo & Steven Tyler are wearing matching silvery/goldy metallic outfits. 

Bleh... J-Lo makes me want to kick puppies. 

No opening song, threw me off. I was all set to get my judge on.

There only doing a bottom 2, that threw me double off! So I guess my prediction do-over is Hollie & Jessica in the bottom 2, Hollie is still my pick to go home.

Josh is up first, and he is NOT in the bottom 3. I was wrong. This feels weird. haha I guess he wasn't as bored as he looked, and America made the wrong choice, AGAIN.

COLDPLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! I love you Chris Martin, you can play piano and sing to me about Paradise ANY. DAY. Gwenyth who? 

 Side Note: sweetest instrument decorations, EVER! Someone give them a cookie.

Up next is Hollie & Phillip. Ouch with the harshness Jimmy. Maaaaaaaaan!

Hollie's in the bottom 2, Phillip is SAFE! A-DUHHH (Take that mom! I'm in for at least another week. Boo-ya Kasha!

Carrie Underwood performed. She looked stunning. I didn't love the song. Moving on...

Final results are Jessica & Skylar. Fun Fact: My mom has Hollie, Jessica AND Skylar, so one of her people are DEFINITELY going home tonight. HA

Jessica is SAFE and Skylar is in the bottom 2.

So I'm 50/50 on my bottom 2 and I get to listen to Colplay sing again. Night. Is. Made.

Eliminated: Skylar Laine. I WAS WRONG!! How can this be? I'm always right, I'm a girl! 

There you have it folks, all my thoughts on the American Idol elimination show.
