Americal Idol: Utah Auditions

Big surprise in Utah…an Osmond showed up at the auditions. He’s made it through to the Hollywood round.

LOL @ the goth chick. I don’t like her, and her ESP fails. Boy she was pissed.

Some dude named Rich Kagel looks like a space alien had sex with Michael Bolton and gave birth to Rich Kagel.

Dancing lucky rabbit fails too, but homeboy wasn’t as bad as they made it seem.

Coming up after the break, the “next Amy Winehouse?” — you mean we get a fugly skank whore like Amy Winehouse, or what? No, just some chick with a similar sound, singing some kind of Winehouse song.

Inked up divorced chick = winner so far.

The blonde hippie chick, Rose, was kinda cool also.

American Idol Judges and the “Threat”

I just got around to watching last nights episode of American Idol a few minutes ago…and give me a break. Simon Cowell must be the biggest pussy on the planet, if he interpreted anything that kid (Mark Mudd?) did on the show last night as a threat. As the kid was leaving, he said something like “y’all take care, be careful” and immediately Simon said “that’s a threat.” Paula quickly agreed, adding her ignorance with “that’s not normal.”

I say, they’re both wrong, and showed how stupid they can be on certain subjects, but ok…if they knew any better, they’d know the phrase is fairly common in some parts of the country.

Clay Aiken Is Gay.

Are you surprised? Who would’ve guessed it, right? LOFL. Supposedly he feels the need to let everyone know by appearing on the cover of People Magazine with his newborn son.

Clay Aiken to reveal he is gay

Tue Sep 23, 2008 8:25pm EDT

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – After years of dodging questions, former “American Idol” singer Clay Aiken will acknowledge he is a gay man in an interview with People magazine set to run on its Web site Wednesday, according to media reports.

Celebrity site Perezhilton.com on Tuesday published a photo of the cover of People magazine’s upcoming issue on which Aiken cradles his new son, Parker Foster Aiken, in his arms.

The caption reads “Yes, I’m Gay,” and underneath is a quote from Aiken on his decision to come out of the closet that says: “I cannot raise a child to lie or to hide things.”

In August this year, Aiken’s friend, music producer Jaymes Foster, gave birth to the baby fathered by Aiken.

A spokeswoman for People would neither confirm nor deny that Aiken told the magazine he is gay. But the magazine issued a statement saying, “We can confirm that Clay Aiken and his son appear on the next cover of People. For the complete story, visit people.com at 7 a.m. (EDT Wednesday) (1100 GMT) morning.”

Aiken, 29, gained fame as a contestant on the No. 1-rated U.S. TV talent show “American Idol” in 2003. He was the runner-up that season but went on to build a solid singing career on his own. He currently appears on Broadway in “Monty Python’s SPAMALOT.”

For years, Aiken has dodged questions about whether he is homosexual despite persistent rumors on the subject. He has said, generally, that his sexuality was nobody’s business but his own.

In 2006, ABC television’s Diane Sawyer asked Aiken and he shot back that it was a “really rude” question. He also dodged it in a previous interview with People magazine saying that readers “are going to believe what they want.”

American Idol Returns Tonight

What morons will we see in the opening rounds of American Idol this year? The first few shows usually contain world-class entertainment, even if the contestants may not be musically talented.

The start of American Idol tonight means I will be forced to record “Comanche Moon” (The prequel to Lonesome Dove – one of the greatest movies ever). I watched the first part of Comanche Moon on Sunday night, and so far it’s pretty good. Val Kilmer was left hanging in a bird cage above a big cliff. He’ll be forced to catch birds that fly by in order to feed himself.

On a sidenote, I need to spend more time on this blog, and update to the latest version of Worpress, so perhaps I’ll get around to that sometime soon.

Holy crap, this Sanjaya kid is ripping off other American Idol contestants…

I can’t believe he is still on American Idol again this week. Yeah yeah, so the other guy forgot his lyrics, he still was better than Sanjaya. Same deal with that dude Sundance Head last week, sure he sucked on his performance of Pearl Jam’s “Jeremy” but he is still a better singer than Sanjaya.

I’m aware of that stupid website also that tries to influece American Idol votes, if that is having any affect then it’s a shame.

Boooo! Antonella Barba voted off American Idol

Who cares if Antonella Barba can’t sing? At least she looks good in her almost nude photos. Maybe she’ll do a photo spread in a men’s magazine soon. :)

Also, they sent Sundance Head home because he really sucked on his performance of Pearl Jam’s “Jeremy.” He is a good singer, don’t get me wrong. In fact, he was one of my favorites going into the Hollywood rounds, and I think he could’ve done better with “Jeremy” but it seemed a bit too up-tempo to me, I just know something was off. Regardless, I think they should’ve sent that young dude home before Sundance, but hey, it’s America’s vote, right?
