American "Idiot", I mean "Idol"

Who watched American Idol last night? I did and I felt like an American Idiot. Who voted these people on? There were performers with promise early on. Haley and Sanjia? Come on.

I have to say that it was one of the most disappointing shows I have seen them produce. (and I am a big fan. I have a huge soft spot for normal people that 'make it') To add insult to injury, they highlighted Kelly Clarkson, Daughtry, Fantasia and Carrie Underwood- all amazing performers.

The only saving grace for me was Diana Ross (I really like her!) Who doesn't?

I look forward to seeing what happens tonight. Hopefully Melinda, Blake and Lakisha stay. They have the most promise in my opinion and deserve a shot and stardom.

The wrong person went as far as I am concerned.

This year seems to be a bust but there are a couple of women and maybe a guy or two who MAY surprise us.

I hope!

America voted the the wrong person off last week and now this week! Well I didn't vote so I can only say I'm part of the problem. Remember though that Daughtry who was "kicked off" to everyone's amazement now has the #1 selling album (I think - or I'm close:)

Two years ago I said that I though America voting didn't identify the best singers. I feel that's even truer today. However the bottom line I guess is that there are 3 women who stand out big time and one of them will be the American Idol so they could all just go home now and leave them. jo
