American Idol - Final 3
It’s the Final Three and I’m not as excited as I should be. I have no idea why though (don’t tell me because Sangina was voted out) so let’s get this on the way. Three finalists, three song choices each.
Jordin
Judge’s (Simon’s) Pick - Wishing On A Star (Rose Royce)
The first half of Jordin’s performance was wafer thin. I had always imagined that this genre would be Jordin’s forte. She sounded pretty good, but to tell you the truth, I very much prefer the original version. And I can’t believe she has never heard of this song before.. pffft. 7 out of 10.
Producer’s Pick - She Works Hard For The Money (Donna Summer)
It was good but lacks a certain je ne sais quoi (chewah!). This would have worked so much better if she had worn a waitress costume during this performance (if you were a child of the 80s, you would know what I’m talking about). Jordin’s performance was just alright. It didn’t blow me away. 6 out of 10.
Jordin’s Pick - I (Who Have Nothing) (Shirley Bassey)
It was good but I personally thought she sounded a lot better when she first sung this song a few weeks ago. 8 out of 10.
Judge’s (Paula’s) Pick - Roxanne (The Police)
I was never a fan of this song but I shouldn’t take it out on Blake. He should take pointers from my baby girl Dilana though. Blake sang that song pretty well and it was actually mildly entertaining. I’m guessing it was because of the lack of the bleat boxing. 7 out of 10.
Producer’s Pick - This Love (Maroon 5)
I am sick to my fucking stomach of this overplayed song. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely loved this song when I first heard it… until the local radios picked it up and played it to fucking death. That said, for an easy song, Blake’s vocals were absolutely hideous, but then again America’s interpretation of “Idol” might be different than mine, so he might sail through this one. 5 out of 10.
Blake’s Pick - When I Get You Alone (Robin Thicke)
Aside from the final 15 seconds, that was a total mess and totally all over the pace. He may be a great performer, and I’m sure he’ll give one helluva live concert, but he’s just not my cuppa tea. 6 out of 10.
Melinda
Judge’s (Randy’s) Pick - I Believe In You And Me (Whitney Houston)
Melinda’s no Whitney but that was pretty good. She did some amazing vocals near the end of the song but the rest was just okay, in my opinion. 7 out of 10.
Producer’s Pick - Nutbush City Limits (Ike & Tina Turner)
I was too distracted by the hideousness that was the combo of her hairstyle and the rags that she was wearing. 6 out of 10.
Melinda’s Pick - I’m A Woman
Loved it. L.O.V.E.D. IT. 9 out of 10.
I’m not even going to venture a guess as to who’s going tomorrow night. I won’t be surprised with whatever’s the outcome, but my personal preference, I would love to see Melinda and Jordin in the Finals. Not that it matters, cause it’s a sure bet all these three will get recording contracts after this show is over.
ps. why the FUCK am I watching this filthy shit of a reality show called House of Carters on E! ? And I thought Growing Up Gotti was bad.

Err…Jordin looks extra huge in this picture. She’s not that huge isn’t she? Or issit Ryan…he’s so small.

haha ryan *is* tiny, actually i think his head is tiny, it’s prolly as big as a coconut shell. when he’s standing next to melinda or jordin, this becomes so apparent.
i didn’t think blake was that bad with this love, quite good actually. melinda messed up some words in woman but she covered up nice. jordin’s screechy.
and you’re right, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU WATCHING CARTERS FOR?????

IT’S OFFICIAL! ELLIOT WAS THE BEST SINGER ON STAGE LAST NIGHT.
hcfoo : hehehe no lah.. that picture was photochopped. But Jordin IS kinda tall for a 17 year old.. and Ryan IS kinda tiny for a human being.
y : I didn’t notice melinda messed up her lyrics, but looked like she covered it well. And as for the Carters… mmm.. well.. umm.. I can’t find my remote. Yeah that’s it, the remote was missing
Dom : I know *hangs head in shame*
Dan : Poor Melinda.. I just hope she’s not gonna fade into oblivion like LaToya.
Y : LOL but be sure to stay tune to the finale. I’m sure it will be a glorious cheesy suckfest like last year. I wonder if they’ve managed to secure Michael Jackson this time around.
JORDIN FOR THE WIN!

Bloody hell, Charla’s taller than Ryan!
May 17th, 2007 at 9:42 pm
“do i make you proud” lol that’s the corniest song ever. i hope blake wins so the voters there can have a beatboxer bepop ing up their ass.

you know what i’m actually still quite bummed that melinda won’t be in the final. read an interview of hers today and she just really strikes me as such a genuine person, a rare breed on TV these days.
