American Idol Series : Not A Surprise Really .
It's Doolittle's time to go. Although Melinda is the most polished si
nger of the 3 remaining Idol finalists, she has no star power. Melinda Doolittle's star is just too bland compared to those of Blake and Jordin. The latter 2 are young , hip and oozing with star appeal. They also sing very well. No amount of Simon's pushing can make the American youth favor Doolittle.I guess MD is back to being a back up singer. A lead back up singer. I don't think her recordings will sell well.
American Idol Series . Aloha Lakisha
There are down to 3 with the departure of Lakisha , the mother Idol. Lakisha somehow expected the inevitable as she performed weakly the 2 Beegee
s songs. Even Simon picked her to say goodbye last night.It was weird hearing Lakisha's rendition of Staying Alive especially the part when she crooned ' huh,huh,huh,huh stayin' aliveeeeeeeeeeeiveive'. I wished she stayed dead. The highlight of the night was Barry Gibb singing To Love Somebody . It was really awesome hearing the orig although Michael Bolton's version is equally good.
Next week's American Idol will be a real fight. Blake may surprise the 2 female favorites , Jordin and Doolittle.My hunch is that Blake's young female fans will vote in millions to keep him in the finals especially if he performed very well.So better watch out !
American Idol Series Two To Go !
It's dumping time again but this time , it's 2 that were asked to evaporate by the American people. First was military man Phil Stacey a surprise Idol wanna be who lasted longer than he should. Phil improved a lot in the last 2 wee
ks of competition . His country singing style came out at the time he was about to meet the chopping ax.Good for him. Ryan said Phil is a good man .That's why maybe the remaining Idol finalists shed a lot of tears for Phil.
After a while, it's Chris Richardson's time to go.He and Blake Edwards are best friends but it's ironic that the 2 were pitted against each other last night.When Ryan announced that it was Chris that the American public voted out of AI , the 2 warmly said goodbye to each other with no hard feelings.We'll see each other at the tour was all that needs to be said.It now left for Blake to carry the male flag.
