In that case good. Jillian nor Tara were any good.

Wow Khloe kicked *** tonight. Mario was his usual boring self. I miss Steve/Nicole already.

Everybody tonight but Beatrice, the white country guy and emblem 3 were good.

They can't harmonize. They all sound like they have colds when they sing together.

Ha, woah, I think we have two opposite brains because I disagree with everything. I thought Khloe had a lot of hiccups and the times she tried to have some humor were awkward and uncomfortable. Mario, I felt, was professional and smart about the whole situation. Still, I think it's good to have both of them because it kind of balances things.
I thought Beatrice, Tate Stevens and especially Emblem 3 were good. Emblem 3 seem like they'll easily be pretty popular.

As for my thoughts on the first live show. Well, it made me look at the show differently (I went from being excited for the show, to disliking it, to liking it and now to appreciating it). I can tell that it's all about the commercial aspect, what's popular, what will sell. But, with that I felt that a some of the performers lost the vocalist aspect of music competition shows. I'm thinking a lot about Carly Rose here. She obviously is incredible and she tried to show her strength in singing in the song, but the song wasn't helping her and she wasn't being who she was. I want to see more simple performances: just a musician, a song, and their voice.

I can actually see why the show took this direction, though. The winner from last year (Melanie Amaro) has went nowhere. I rooted for her and she's definitely talented, but her grand/big-voice singing isn't really as appreciated today. So, all in all, I'm fine with the show and I thought the acts did well (and I hope that some "stars" will emerge from the show).

What do you mean, she went nowhere? She's working on her debut. LOL.
