American Idol
Just a few thoughts so far.
The scary-looking guy from Cleveland has a killer voice, but the fact that his eyes look dead will hurt his ability to connect with the audience and hence to win this competition.
I thought the woman who pawned her wedding rings should have made it through at least another round. She did make a bad song choice, though.
To the skinny pretty black woman who bitched that the accompanist played the song in the wrong key: I don't care what key you told them to play it in, when they start you've got to go with what they're playing and SING IN THE SAME KEY AS THE FUCKING PIANO. Oy. Good riddance.
The group 36 guys got a major gift.
And that other skinny pretty black woman who started making excuses before the judges said anything is damn lucky Donald Trump's not running the auditions. He would have said, "I was going to put you through to the next round, but you're so eager to make excuses that I think I'll send you home instead."
And I would have cut both of the hyperspastic twins, not just the one who got stuck in the bad group.
Makalah (however you spell it), the 16-year-old who looked like a plastic surgery victim in her initial audition, looked a little less frightening this week. I think she let some of her eyebrows go back, and her lips looked less freaky. She still has really weird eye makeup, though.
