I know, I know. . . here it is the night of the next show and I'm just getting around to posting my review of the last result's show! Mea culpa. Sitting at home doing nothing takes up more time than you can imagine!
On to last week's result's show: Brooke White, Justin Gaston and Adam Lambert are scheduled to appear on this show that starts with. . . another awful lip-synced (sunk?) performance of a medley of Elvis songs. Mark my words he IS spinning in his grave!
However, this is the first outfit Siobhan's had on that doesn't look like a collection of weird items or, as my family calls it, the day after Christmas. (You know, when you venture out and see the little kids wearing every item of new clothing they got, whether they match or not.)
And, you know I hate the lip-syncing "group sings" but this one is strictly High School Musical. Dreadful!
The weekly Ford music video, to the tune of "Light & Day/Reach for the Sun" is also an oft-fastforwarded-through item.
Casey, Aaron and Andrew are all directed to center stage.
Oh snap, here's where the "crap, I've been off work for close to a week, through general anesthesia, my mind is mush" starts showing up!! I completely forgot that TWO people are being sent home, and I've only given you my prediction/choice for one. So, I'm quickly adding Tim as my number two pick.
Ryan announces abruptly that Andrew is going home, and Aaron and Casey are safe. I'm sad, because I thought Andrew had SO much potential, but not surprised, because he's simply been disappointing week after week.
Next we're treated to a video of Elliot and Kara's trip to Africa; Elliot's second trip and Kara's first. Kara tries holding a baby at each stop, but she looks SO uncomfortable that she makes you doubt her concern is legitimate.
But, I'm still encouraging each of you to donate at least $10 towards nets to prevent the spread of malaria. So little could achieve so much.
Ryan announces that the "Idol Gives Back" show will feature The Black-Eyed Peas, Annie Lennox, Jeff Beck, Joss Stone, Carrie Underwood, Mary J. Blige and an all-star band, Sir Elton John plus many, many more.
Now comes the part where I start thinking I'm getting too old to write this blog --- who in the hell is Justin Gaston?? He's cute, but he sings like an Idol audition. Apparently he's on some reality show (If I Can Dream) and used to date Miley Cyrus. Guess I should stop skipping over the Miley Cyrus-type "news" in People every week and start paying attention.
Brooke always seemed/looked/acted way older than she is, and tonight, standing next to the studly Justin accentuated that even more. She sounds pretty good, though, singing a country tune. To her credit, she was busy guiding/willing Justin to stay on key (apparently he gets really confused when someone sings harmony but there was NO chemistry, something that's really helpful when singing a duet.
Ryan then calls the whole bottom row out on stage: Lee, Siobhan, Katy, Michael, Crystal and Tim.
He announces that, after 34 million votes Crystal is safe, Siobhan is safe and Lee is safe.
Tim, Michael and Katy are left on stage. Ryan keeps the "suspense" alive by stopping to announce that next week's show will feature inspirational songs and Alicia Keys will be the mentor.
Adam sings his single "What Do You Want From Me?" --- it's pure Adam, a little overdone, but what can I say?
Back to Tim, Michael and Katy. Once again, I'm shocked to hear that Tim is safe. One of the two remaining is going home, the other wasn't even in the Bottom 3.
Katy is going home. Thank God Michael is safe and is NOT in the Bottom 3.
And. . . they make her sing. I hate that!
Still waiting for a really big, really truly "aha" moment.
