American Idol 1/22 (Liveblogged!)
Jan 22, 2008 That's Hot
San Diego missed out on the Super Bowl this year, but maybe some Idol hopefuls may do better…
- Uh, who are these two clowns?
- I’d like to visit San Diego at some point… I’m sure I can find a few people to back this up.
- Twelve thousand??? Damn.
- Tetiana looks as exotic as her name… not much hint of accent, though. Great voice, though.
- Perrie the single dad has a hard story, and it sucks to have lost his partner that way. I hear maybe more vibrato than there needed to be, but it’s a great audition either way.
- Awwww. Cute weeble.
- Comingup next… crappy auditions and sucky singers who tell off the judges when they’re not present!
- Michael sounds great, too. I don’t recognize the song, but the audition is awesome.
- 3-for-3, but no one bats 1.000 forever (the 2007 New England Patriots notwithstanding). The next group of auditions kinda bury the percentage.
- Danielle seems to be quite the Mariah fan. She likes watching the poor auditons on American Idol… Too bad she’s in one… She’s got a voice, but she’s all over the place.
- “Oh, now I’m going to be on the rejects… this is so not cool…”
- Oy… gimmicks are nearly always a waste.
- “And you think you can sing that song?” “I think I can…” That answer isn’t a very encouraging one…
- …with good reason.
- I’ve said it before… if you think you need to start singing a second song without being specifically asked to by the judges, you’re sunk.
- Continuing to sing when asked to stop is made of fail, too.
- Haha… “Out of tune… out of tune… changed keys… well, that was in tune…”
- Okay, the Simon-obsessed sisters are amusing… can the auditioning one sing?
- Yes, she can. Samantha is probably gonna get her hug.
- “I love this country.” *snorf*
- And, here’s Blake, American Idol’s Buck Star.
- “There’s always next year!” Don’t encourage him, Ryan!
- Um… Alberto scares me.
- “This is the only fan you’ll ever have.” Diss!
- Aaron scares me too. Not nearly as much as Alberto.
- Wow. How does one sing with a paralyzed vocal cord?
- Damn. Apparently, quite well.
- Gah. That’s gotta suck to be disqualified for visa reasons.
- Carly’s not bad.
- And she’s back in! Nice job!
Short episode tonight, more tomorrow.
