I can't help it, I'm addicted to American Idol this year. While I believe Adam Lambert is a bit "out there", I can't help but enjoy his performances each week. His version of "Born To Be Wild" this week was outstanding! I also enjoy Kris Allen, the preppy kid from Arkansas. His song tonight was fantastic! Allison is incredible, and she's only 16. Her voice is very unique and memorable. She reminds me of Joan Jett. Danny Goke is good, but I'm not sure he can compete with the above-mentioned three.

I know there are other Victorians watching AI. What's your thoughts? Who's leaving this week? My prediction is Matt Giraud.

  • I think they just wanted to use the "save" as well. Matt needed to go home, and so does Lil. Anoop has a beautiful voice, but I haven't seen his "entertainment" side. The best part about Idol for me is that I've been able to reconnect with my little sister. We haven't spoken in years, but because of our mutual addiction to Idol, we've started talking again!! That was probably too much info for this post, but I wanted to share it. Now, back to Idol, Allison, Adam, and Kris will make it through to the end. Some say Danny Goke, but he's boring to me. Adam is the complete package, but I still say he's to "out there" for middle America.

  • Moving forward a day...That was rigged! They just wanted to use the "new" rule they implemented this year, the judges threw it in tonight because it was the last week to use it and they saved Matt! He wasn't worth saving. I agree he's good enough to be on the show but there's no way he's the next American Idol. Mark my words; next week...Matt and ANoop- go home!
    And, what’s up with Miley swinging her hair all in her face! Enough!

  • I did miss Allison. When Lil sang The Rose I said Allison should have sang that one! I didn't realize I had missed her til the recap at the end of the show. Paula is looney sometimes but I agree the show wouldn't be the same without her. Simon is sooo blunt but I like him. Randy too. I even like the new gal. I never watched the show before last season. Now I am hooked. We are not the only fans. Almost everyone I know watches it. Maybe they don't tivo it but if they are home they watch it.

  • I knew there were other AI fans in Victoria! I still think Matt's going home, but it could be Lil. Ringer is making me laugh talking about Paula. I agree with you - watching Paula and Simon interact with each other makes the show. If Paula leaves, the show won't be the same. I think she pops a Zanex before each show or something.

  • I think Lil will be going home this week, I'm also addicted to the show.

  • You missed Alison's performance last night? It ROCKED! I don't like the whole new judge set- up either. I watch the show to see what "corny" crap Paula comes up with each week and get a good laugh out of it. She's as good as Simon. I swear they've got something going on and if they don’t- they will- the way they're flirt'n with each other...

    Bring back three judges and rid of "that" new one. I like her but someone's got to go! WORD IS: Paula's retiring- I say "send CARA PACK'N, she needs to go home!

    “Oh my, did I just ramble on about this stupid show…What the world is coming too! HELP…”

  • I think Lil may go also. I like her just not her choice of songs. What has happened to all four judges giving their opinion of each performance? I missed the beginning of the show. I am sure it was explained but I missed it along with the first 2 performances.

  • I can’t hold back any longer. I’ve spent days and weeks of my time trying to avoid the inevitable and NOT talk about this here. But, the time has come and I can no longer avoid the topic you’ve posted about:
    “AMERICAN IDOL!”

    I’ve hidden the obsession long enough and must admit…
    “I’m a junky and TIVO every episode!”
    “I think I’m the greatest judge THAT EVER LIVED…”
    And, I’m also addicted!
    Adam Lambert takes me back to those high-school days. When I had big-poofy hair, tight rolled jeans and the words to the song “BETH” kept running thru my head!” lol

    I'm thinking Matt or Lil's "go'n to the house!"
