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. 

American Idol: Performance Night

I'm going to open today's post with a letter to Steven & a letter to Phil. 

Dear Steven Tyler, 

the grey chunk of hair you have up front there... LOOKS STUPID! Please do everyone a solid and dye it or shave it off. Your choice, just get rid of it!

Sincerely, The Whole Wide World.

Dear Philly Phil,

I found out you have a girlfriend tonight. I'm officially devastated.

How. Dare. You.

Sincerely, Heartbroken in White Lake

Now that that's out of the way, let's talk about the performances shall we??

60's Jams

Hollie Cavanagh - River Deep, Mountain High -Ike & Tina Turner

Umm welcome to American Idol Hollie, glad you could finally join us! Seriously? Where have you been hiding all of that this whole dang show? Her first song of the evening was amazeballs. Just. Sayin'.

Phillip Phillips - The Letter - The Box Tops

I love you Phil. I love how every week you come in here and totally change a song to make it "Philly Phil Style", you just make them so different and new. Love it!

Skylar Laine - Fortunate Son - Credence Clearwater Revival

I HATED the song choice, but she sang the crap out of it! She performed her little butt off & I gotta give her credit for that.

Jessica Sanchez - Proud Mary - Tina Turner

Brace yourself... I'm going to defend Jessica in 3... 2... 1... She is SO much better than that song! I usually don't like her, but I really felt bad tonight! Again, song choice is key people! And Jessica dear, please don't try to dance again. Please.

Josh Ledet - Ain't To Proud To Beg - The Temptations

Josh to me, just looked bored the whole performance! I mean, I'm normally pretty hard on him, but if you aren't gonna put you're heart into it why be there????

Phillip Phillips & Josh Ledet - You've Lost The Loving Feeling - Righteous Brothers

Oh someone please stab my eardrums with a pencil!! Are you nuts AI??? That was the world's worst pairing ever! Ugh, way to bring them down when it counts the most! 

British Pop Tunes

Hollie Cavanagh - Bleeding Love - Leona Lewis

Waah Waah... This song was really not the ending she needed. Her first song was so much better. Bad song choice Hollie, you're better than that. That last big note was killer though.

Phillip Phillips - Time of the Season - The Zombies

I don't know if I like that you sang the original melody. I just really don't know. You're very sexual though... Just thought you might like to refer back to the above letter. You have a GIRLFRIEND. I know I'm hot & all... but you're committed... Sheesh. And the high notes just didn't happen for you. Stop it, right this instance!

Skylar Laine - You Don't Have To Say You Love Me - Dusty Springfield
Even just the rehearsal was amazing! That one long note hooked me. And she didn't disappoint in her live performance either! Much better song choice, much better performance! Great job Skylar!


Jessica Sanchez - You Are So Beautiful - Billy Preston
One word: BREATHTAKING. I think she finally remembered that this is a singing competition. (Man what is the deal tonight! I actually LIKED J. Sanchez!) This song was beautiful! That is the voice we know & love from her! I'm going there... She get's a Bomb-Diggity-Bomb-Dot-Com for that performance!


Josh Ledet - To Love Somebody - The Bee Gees

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzz... Oh sorry Josh put me to sleep. We can attribute that to the fact that his song was slow & boring or it was just so smooth & melodic. I'll let you decide.  And what's with the front of his hair? Are you going for a little frohawk? I don't get it, please stop.

Skylar Laine, Hollie Cavanagh & Jessica Sanchez - Higher & Higher - Jackie Wilson

The girls trio was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better than the stupid boys duet! They just mix together so much better! I think the producers are biased towards the girls this season. A girl hasn't won in 5 years for a reason! Don't sabotage the boys!

Well folks, there you have it. Performance reviews from yours truly. ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT. Yea that's right, I'm on time & stuff. Oh snizap. You just got served. Goodnight.

My prediction for tomorrow:

Bottom 3 is Josh Ledet, Hollie Cavanagh & Jessica Sanchez.

I think Hollie is gonna go home this week. (and that makes me sad.)

American Idol Rundown

Yipee American Idol Day!

AND IT'S QUEEN NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry, I was excited! So let's get down to business and I'll let you know who was good & who sucked. And you will agree because my word is law. Boo-Ya Kasha

Show Opener - Queen Medley - All Contestants

LOVED. IT. Really all that needs to be said.

Queen Songs:

Jessica Sanchez - Bohemian Rhapsody

I really hated this with all my heart & soul. I think this was her worst week to date. I think she is a great singer, but this was bad, bad, bad!

Skylar Laine - The Show Must Go On

I didn't know this song, AT ALL, but I really kinda enjoyed it. I heart Skylar.

Josh Ledet - Crazy Little Thing Called Love

Meh... I kinda hated it. The judges just need to sit down! 

Elise Testone - I Want It All

As much as I ADORE Elise, this song just didn't do it for me! that makes me super sad. Voice is still amazing, I just didn't care for the song.

Phillip Phillips - Fat Bottom Girls

Philly Phil, I love you, but you look constipated every time you sing. I liked it, but I didn't love it. I agree with The Dawg Randy Jackson this week.

Hollie Cavanagh - Save Me

I love the suit she wore! and I genuinely enjoy her voice, the song was very good! Never heard it before but she did a good job with it. She is my favorite of all the Queen songs.

Contestant Choice:

Jessica Sanchez - Dance With My Father

This song was soooooo much better than her Queen choice. You could just feel the emotion in her voice. Excellent job. 

Skylar Laine- Tattoos on this Town

Anytime Skylar gets to do country is a good time. It's just her thing. She just sings the heck out of it every time! She will definitely go far in the country world, winner of American Idol or not.

Josh Ledet - Ready For Love

Again, so much better than his Queen choice. I've already told you guys I'm pretty over Josh, but he really did an amazing job with this song! (I think Queen just wasn't a good choice for these guys!) 

Elise Testone - Bold As Love 

I know this as a John Mayer song, but it's a Jimmy Hendrix song according to Steven Tyler. Who knew! I think she over-sung it a little. I just couldn't follow it. :(

Phillip Phillips - The Stone

(I love the little montage before his song. Oh Phil) Philly Phil is back! I loved this song. Screw Queen, don't force him into a box. He's a star! haha Lame, I know.

Hollie Cavanagh - The Climb

LOVE THIS SONG! And I love Hollie's version. I just love her. She may not win, but I would totes buy a Hollie Cavanagh CD and listen to it all the live long day!

Elimination show:

All I know from the elimination show is that my girl Elise went home. Yea, I Wikipedia'd it because I'm too dang tired to stay up and watch the whole show. I'm angry. :(

American Idol Top 7 & Elimination.

So. I hate to be a party pooper this week but I am so dang tired I just don't have the energy for a full post like I did last week. So I'm just going to give you a quick rundown of both shows and let that be that. Don't like it? Tough cookies!

Performance Show

Hollie Cavanagh:

Song 1 - I had goosebumps with the first notes. She seriously did an amazing job! 

Song 2 - Not really a fan. Just didn't hit me like the first one did.

Colton Dixon:

Song 1 - HATED. IT! Sorry Colton, this just was NOT a good choice in song. 

Song 2 - AMAZEBALLS! I seriously loved it! 

Elise Testone:

Loved it! Both songs. She seriously is amazing to me! Her voice is so unique and I really just wish America would get on board and vote the right way! I did not however, like the orange dress she wore during the first song. The sheer orange billowy material just kinda made her look a little fatty fat fat. I'm. Just. Sayin'.

Skylar Laine:

I really enjoyed both of her songs. I wasn't a fan of the country Gaga version when it came out, but Skylar really did it justice! 

Josh Ledet:

Ya know, I think I have just had enough of Josh. I really am just not a fan. He didn't do a bad job, I just don't really enjoy him.

Jessica Sanchez:

While I agree with America Jessica is a great singer, I just don't think she has "it". I don't believe she will win, but she did a great job on both songs.

Phillip Phillips:

Philly Phil can really do no wrong for me. Anyone out there who thinks so deserves a salmon slap! 

Results Show

*Mr. Soul Patrol, Taylor Hicks, was in the crowd. Irrelevant. *eye roll*

*Kris Allen performed, and I adore him! I like... no LOVE his new song to!! New album here I come!

* LMFAO sang. meh... I like the song, performance was mildly entertaining, but it really did nothing for me.

*Bottom 3 was Hollie Cavanagh (umm why?), Elise Testone (seriously America?) & Colton Dixon (not surprised) and Colton went home. He didn't deserve to go home, in my opinion, but what can ya do. He had an off week and he was man enough to admit that he picked bad songs. He wasn't himself and that cost him a shot at winning.

American Idol. Top 7.

If you are a fan of AI, THIS IS THE YEAR TO GO TO THE LIVE SHOW! They are seriously amazing this year. With the exception of Deandre. Blech I just want to shave his head while he's sleeping... Ready for a re-cap?

Skylar Laine: Didn't You Know How Much I Loved You (By American Idol Alumni Kellie Picker) 

I. Love. Skylar. She just has that growl in her voice and she is a little country princess if I've ever seen one! I don't personally think she is going to win, but she's got amazing talent and will go far!

Colton Dixon: Love The Way You Lie (By Skylar Gray)

I will admit, I don't remember Colton from last year, shame on me, and when I first heard him this year(ByI really was not a fan. BUT He has seriously impressed since then. His song this week was AMAZEBALLS! Like you would not believe!

Phillip Phillips & Elise Testone: Duet - Somebody That I Used To Know (By Gotye ft. Kimbra)

I have listened to this about 10 times on my recording. The only reason I have moved past this is because my sister Kayla is in here watching it with me. I'm not one to run out and buy songs on iTunes, but I just bought this one. No. Joke. I love these 2 togther more than I love Mac & Cheese and that's a lot!

Update: Actually it was a joke because iTunes doesn't have that song on there!!!! WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!?!?!?!?!!?!?!

Jessica Sanchez: Stuttering (By Jazmine Sullivan) 

J-dawg has some serious pipes, I will give her that. BUT I really did not care for this weeks song. She sang the shiz out of it, but the song in general kinda sucked. She should have picked a better one.

It's about here in the show where I spoiled the results for myself by going on Wikipedia. Nice job Jess... Stellar!

Josh Ledet: Runaway Baby (By Bruno Mars)

I don't know why... but I really am a Bruno Mars hater... It pains me to say that, and I think that is why I really didn't like Josh this week. #SorryImNotSorry

Colton Dixon & Skylar Laine: Duet - Don't You Wanna Stay (By Jason Aldean & Kelly Clarkson)

I like the song, I loved these 2 together last week but I did not love the harmonies this week. They did great in their individual parts, together it was just so so for me.

Hollie Cavanagh: Perfect (By Pink)

The accent is just so cute! And I loved her outfit too! This song was... well... PERFECT for her! She just has that strong low-ish voice that pink does.  Great fit, love Hollie!

Phillip Phillips: Give A Little More (By Maroon 5)

Can I just say that when fill sings, he looks constipated. Like for reals. Regardless, I love him always. He is my favey, my pick to win. I have yet to be disappointed in a song he's sang. This week was no exception. Love.

Hollie Cavanagh, Josh Ledet & Jessica Sanchez: Trio - Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)  (By Season 1 winner Kelly Clarkson)

I will premise this with, neither of these 3 are really high on my favorites list. But the KILLED THIS SONG! Are you serious???? Ah-Maze-Balls to the max. 

Elise Testone: You & I (By Lady Gaga)

Dare I say, she sang this better than Gaga??? In my opinion yes, and my opion is all that matters here! haha I love Elise, she's the whip! She just needs to keep picking great songs and singing the crap out of them like she has been! She may not win it all, but she will go far!

Results show: Really didn't care for the opening number. They sang Raise Your Glass by Pink... Meh. They handed out some fan mail, that was cute. James Durbin performed... Hated it. Not sure what kind of mic he was using, but it was stupid. Jennifer Hudson & 

Ne-Yo performed... Love this song. I normally fast forward through the performances because they suck! But I watched this one. I want to rip that hat of Ne-yo's head, for reals you look like an idiot. Just. Sayin.

Bottom 3 surprisingly was Josh, Elise & Jessica. The looked on Jennifer's face when Jessica was voted out was seriously priceless. She was about to shank someone.The judges used their save to keep her around for one more week. They felt so strongly about it they ran up on stage, mid save me song, and took the mic out of her hands and said "go sit down, you aren't going anywhere"
