American Idol Options

[Indigo Horrible]

So... who's watching? I always start at the semifinals of each season now so everyone's on the same playing field with me. And I was happy with the past two winners (I love Kris Allen and David Cook), so I'm hoping we get another one in their wheelhouse this week.

Anyway... I'm watching the semifinals right now... good god. Ashley sounded like a whale giving birth, and Paige (I think her name was Paige?) sounded sick half the time... I hope the other girls are better than this.

[Katie]

I'm watching them now as well.

Y'know, I'm really not seeing the whole "strong girl" thing the judges keep yakking about. Lilly Scott, the white haired girl who just performed, was okay, but definitely not Idol winner material, and the previous two girls just should have stopped singing halfway through. Paige (first girl) was much too low in the song's register, and Ashley was hitting some crazy-face notes out of nowhere. At least Lilly kind of had a song going on.

On the other hand however, I'm a fan of Crystal Bowersox. She's really great, in my opinion. She's just got that natural talent, and though she's not really the image of Idol, I really like her voice and song choices. Though I truly want to punch that Haeley Vaughn in the face; you are NOT country nor a good singer.

As for the guys, I feel like Andrew Garcia is a real contender this season. I lovelovelove his voice. Some other guys are quite good, too.

currently: Enh, Katelyn wasn't that bad, but she could use some more stage presence. And an actual hairstyle.
