Talking American Idol

Anyone else out there watch this week? I was completley shocked last night!!!

First off their performances...Syesha keeps picking songs that give her alot to live up to, and although she sings them well, she is not Whitney or Fantasia! Kristy Lee Cook...My Oregon singer, I would like to root for her just because of where she is from, but seriously....what is she still doing there? Brooke...she does a good job, but she is not the next american Idol, I gaurntee we will being hearing her on country music stations within the next year. Carly Smithson...great voice, but there is something missing. Did you hear everyone booing last night when she was safe over Michael Johns.

David Cook...What a giant head you have my dear boy...and I think Simon is dead on with his judging of him, you have to be a cocky man to know one. Jason Castro...love his voice, great singer, but could you get just a little more stoned before you come on, just for good television purposes!!! David Archuleta, great kid, great voice, great stage presence, horrible stage father! Michael Johns..I really thought he would be in the top 3 along with David A. and David C. I was sad to see him go!

Who is your top 3?

Re: American Idol

I am a huge David Cook fan so he's definitely #1 for me. Beyond that, I love Jason Castro but I just don't see him making it to the final 3. So I'm thinking David Cook, David Archuletta, & either Brooke White or Carly.

I like David as well...Jason Castro too but I don't see him winning because there are not a lot of people into his atyle. I would actually feel sorroy for David Archuletta if he wins or losesbecause either way his dad is going to be hell on wheels from what I have heard about him.

Re: American Idol

I heard something about David A's Dad getting banned from Star Search but can't remember where I heard it. For all I know, it might have been somewhere here on the allmighty Vevmo. Was that a true story?

Twas TMZ:

David Archuleta's dad, Jeff, is a piece of work.

Sources close to "Star Search" tell TMZ that when David was a contestant back in the day, Jeff's behavior was so bad, he was eventually barred from the lot! The guards actually had a picture of Jeff's mug hanging in the guard shack in case he tried sneaking in.

We're also told the father of the year harassed Tiffany Evans, his "Star Search" rival, lurking outside her practices, even trying to coerce her into drinking milk before a show to ruin her voice. She didn't listen (obviously) and went on to win.

Sources also tell us Daddy Dearest sometimes screamed at his son and has even withheld water during rehearsals, even bringing his son to tears.

As far as "Idol" goes, we hear papa's wrath is still in full blossom. That might explain why Jeff, who normally sits in the audience, was replaced by other family members last week.
