Hold That Note
AMERICAN IDOL
Several things became clear tonight. One: Paula Abdul lives on another planet, meaning Simon and Randy will have to carry the load of offering contestants a realistic appraisal of their performances. Two: Camile Velasco really can't hang with the other women on the show; her performance sounded amateurish compared to those of Fantasia, La Toya, and Jennifer. Three: White men can't jump, and they can't sing, either. JPL's performance was middling--at least he looked like he was having fun--and John Stevens was out and out "abysmal," as Simon (his biggest fan until now) said. It sounds like he's singing with a head cold--and, worse, it often sounds like he's just talking into the microphone. Four: Even Simon can be wrong--but he admits it. George Huff was outstanding tonight.
I stand by my prediction from last week: tomorrow night's final three should be John Stevens, JPL, and Camile Velasco. After this night, I can't imagine who else viewers would leave behind.
