American Idol 5 - Final 7 (Great American Songbook)

by @ 9:32 pm. Filed under American Idol

Hang on a sec, isn’t Rod Stewart British? I don’t care much for Rod, although I do like his cover of ‘Handbags and Gladrags’ - the theme song used by The Office, and also a Number 4 hit for the Stereophonics. And I could’ve sworn the guy dancing with him in the rehearsals was Taye Diggs!

Chris - What A Wonderful World

I actually thought he was the one sitting on the stairs holding the guitar, that would impress the hell out of me, but I was wrong. His singing was, well.. shit, and with that perpetual dead pan, angst ridden expression of his, I still think he’’s way overrated and people are only voting for him cause they’re wishing to get into his pants. Come on, you know that’s the truth. A 5.

Omarosa Bennett - Foolish Things

She kicks ass in this genre, there’s no denying that. But I don’t see people rushing out to buy her jazz album any time soon though. Listening to her sing a song might be pleasant, but listerining her singing an entire album like that would just drive me crazy. An 8.

Taylor - You Thrill Me

The song was kinda boring but I thought Taylor sang that one quite well. Unlike the judges, however, I did not car emuch for his ending. Still, I would give that performance a 7.5

Elliot - It Had To Be You

I know I’m rehashing my comments but seriously, Elliot is the best male vocalist on AI ever. I thought it was kind of funny when Simon mentioned he lacked personality, and had nothing but praises for Tin Man Chris and his empty hollow heart. I sure hope Simon was trying to pull pity votes for Elliot to stay out of the bottom three this week. A 9.5

Kellie - Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered

OMG Stupid stupid dumbass country hick. When you think she can’t be any stupider, she does. I would lpve it if she wnis this show, cause that will truly show what kind of person Americans would want to idolize. Not only her personality is annoying, she also sucks at singing. I absolutely loved the shot where Simon laid down his head on the table in frustration when Kellie was singing. You go win this thing, bitch. A 3.5

Ace - Can’t remember, can’t be bothered (not the actual song title)

And I thought all men would look much better with short hair. Boy, did Ace prove me wrong. He looks smarmier than ever with that bun on his head. I don’t even want to bother with his singing and his fucking falsettos. A 2.

Katharine - Someone to Watch Over Me

Katharing McPhee, will you marry me? The many, many camera close-ups really did her justice. My God. Wow. Major awesomeness, dude. I love her. I love her little giggles and spontaneousness during all her performances. That was flawless. A 10. And kudos to Paula for the shout out to Mr Holland’s Opus - best teacher movie ever. Remind me to go get the DVD. Great movie, Superb soundtrack.

Top Three - Katharine, Elliot, Me (I don’t care, I want this threesome)

Bottom Three - Ace, Kellie, Chris

Going out - Ace

Golden nugget : “I don’t think you can sing that song, cause I’m singing it tomorrow” ~ Rod Stewart to Katharine.

    I’d still watch the Apprentice but only when i get my hands on the torrents all in one dvd. the amazing race…haha i thot i was the only one who’s stopped watching it. it just isn’t the same like before, there aren’t any teams i like and it’s just so boring now. i really could care less who wins or what goes on each week.

    now back to idol… i thot last night was decent, with the exception of Kellie. If Americans want her to win then I think she should win it all!

    Hey, looks like your prediction came through…

    Yay! Ace is finally gone.. but I’ve been predicting his demise for the past 3 weeks. LOL. Anyway, vote Kellie for the new American Idol. Vote For The Worst!!
