Randy Jackson can kiss my A S S!!!!!!!!!!!!! He only loves African-American women singers DOG. I think Randy needs to be fired. He was absolutely horrible this year IMHO. Jordin F'ing Sparks version better than Martina McBride's??!??!?!? What a load of S H IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Martina can outsing that little teeny bopper a trillion to one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly! :lol:

NOPE Ron, Sorry, I give all 3 rounds to Blake. Jordin almost had the 3rd round, but her acting like she was gonna cry pissed me off (it was just acting, I notice no tears). I don't buy the innocent act Jordin, you can stop it honey. I also think she chose a country song as her 1st song to get country fans' votes. Very calculated. :rolleyes:

Blake did a very good job on the Maroon 5 song and pretty good on that horrible original last song. He's a helluva better performer than stand still Freaking Jordin Sparks. Teen boppers are voting for Jordin since she's the teen JER Soaps Fan!!!!!! Jordin's dream deserves to be ruined. She, not Blake, is the simpleton and moron and needs to get off the freaking stage and get her some more singing lessons!!

Why not???!! The F'ing song wasn't Blake's choice. They're made to sing that lousy lame song!

Exactly winterguy! Word up on Melinda being 500 times the better singer.

Agreed. Simon can kiss my arse too.

And that's why we should make sure that Blake wins to shock the hell out of 'em for a 2nd week in a row!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm voting as many times as I can tonight for Blake.

If Jordin wins, then GOODBYE AMERICAN IDOL.

First, Paula looked a HOT, HOT mess tonight. The hair... what is up with the hair?! And what the hell was Randy wearing? What an embarassment! LoL

I didn't like any of Blake's songs. He's good at owning the stage and getting reactions from the audience, but his beat boxing is the only thing that saves him. His singing vocals are sorely lacking. He doesn't have much range at all, and he doesn't even try to push himself to hit the tough notes. He always takes the safe route, vocally.

Meanwhile, can you believe that they gave Blake a "get out of jail free" card on completely destroying the final song just because it's not his "type" of song? How many times over the entire past season were people voted out due to not meshing vocally with the different genres tossed at them each week? Blake should be held to the same standards as all the rest of them, and the fact that he wasn't tells me that they're pandering to him... they're making excuses for him. Bottom line, he doesn't have the vocals or he would've been able to sing the song. He couldn't, and so he doesn't, which means he shouldn't win.

Jordin... oh, Jordin! I love her. The first song -- "Fighter" by Christina Aguilera -- was a little shaky. I was worried it would end up sounding horrible because it's a difficult to sing and nobody sounds as good as Christina Aguilera (or Mariah/Whitney/Celine), but it actually didn't sound bad! It wasn't spectacular, but it was far from terrible.

The second song -- "Broken Wing" by Martina McBride -- was sung beautifully. It sounded even better this time than it did when she sang it the first time during country week. The finale to that song was W-o-W! I agree with whichever judge said that it was even better than the original version, and that's saying quite alot since Martina McBride is, like, the best vocalist in country music.

Then came the last song. From the moment she began singing it, it was ten times better than Blake's version. The beginning was shaky, but even with that, it was better than Blake's vocal. Then when she hit the middle of the song, it was a home run. There was no mistake whatsoever who sang it better when she hit the stride of the song, and from there it just got better with the final few notes. She even managed to sound spectacular while crying! She completely blew Blake out of the water, IMO! Just as I knew she would...

Bottom line, as the judges said, this is a singing competition. It's funny to me when everyone says that Blake should win because he has stage presence (ie. he's sooo sexy), even though he has a lack of vocals. If the winner was to be based on just stage presence, they should also allow people to compete for dancing -- or better yet, allow professional magicians to participate!

At the end of the day, this is a singing competition, and Jordin has the vocals, whereas Blake does not. She threw sh!t down tonight! Blake couldn't hold a candle compared to her, and I think he knew it, especially during the last song. I think he had a look of desperation in his eyes, and I loved it! Jordin blew him out of the water!

TEAM JORDIN! :P

    • Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
    • Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!
    • That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.
    • Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.
    • I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.
    • I didn't rewatch that period, so I'm not really sure how much Bill is on. I recall something about him living at the boardinghouse. I think Van made Matt his guardian, and why she didn't name Josh would be a mystery to me, other than the HW decided they needed to keep Bill in Matt's sphere. Nola is also his aunt, although they don't know each other well, and Van wouldn't have trusted her anyway. There's Dinah---but she's unreliable. Billy gets out of jail around NYE.

    • That's on Kimmer. As someone posted above...she was offered roles in pilots but she would be part of an ensemble or supporting. She didn't want that so she came back to GL. I don't know what she thought would happen..someone offering her "Here's Kimmer!" or The "Zimmer Comedy Powerhouse Hour" variety show..but her housefrau fans did not have the same pull in HW as they did on the soaps. Forbes and Watros knew that you had to take small parts to get noticed ands start a career in primetime. I know she was in consideration for the wife in Evening Shade, but when you go up against Marilou Henner, the soap diva looses. I could see her frustrated in a role like that, where she has to be the understanding wife with a bit of sass, but she could have made it work, if it wasnt for her huge ego.  I think it would have been an issue haveing all the powerhouse comedy actors surrounding...(lets face it..Alice Ghostly woudl have wiped the floor with her...) but it would have been a good launching padd.
    • Oh good, so I don't have to wait too long haha. I'm glad she cares about seeing Bill graduate. I'm guessing I'm in for a bumpy ride between Bill and Matt, if he's going to be his caretaker? Who else could it be, maybe Josh?
