Amie Stuart ~ On the Back Porch

Man so American Idol was SOOOOOOOOO much better than last week and I have to say, I was really worried at the thought of the British Invasion.  Turns out I actually knew a lot of the songs chosen and enjoyed the show–lots of great performances.

Hailey–cute, great performance, perfect song, still not wowed though

Chris Richardson — Sigh (I need a drooley face).  He was awesome.  Sometimes one of the things that bugs me is the band is so loud they drown out the singer so acoustic worked fab for me.

Stephanie–seemed very nervous.  Definitely not her best performance.

Blake–another FAB job *sigh*

Lakisha — good but i definitely see what the judges were saying.  Her comeback about 50 years from now was a zinger though!

Phil–too shouty

Jordin–sold me where Lakisha didn’t.  I totally believed she felt every inch of that song and I think she gets the girl’s prize for the night.

Sanjaya–Simon’s comment said it all.  He practically screamed the entire song.

Gina–I actually liked her performance. I just wish she’d been a bit edgier

Chris Sligh–another good solid performance but nothing that screams “vote for me”

Melinda–again another great one but I didn’t care for her song.

The little girl who cried the entire night–needed a good slap.  JESUS H! People please!  I got really annoyed (as did the girl next to her) and one the radio this AM one of the DJ’s suggested she was a plant–where were her parents?

Today is ShelliBelly’s birthday!!!!!!  Go wish her a happy 30th! Ah to be that young again.
I’ll be over at Southern Fried Chicas later today dishing on….NO RACE
