  • American Idol Season 8 – Playing For 2nd Place

    Kris and Danny are playing for second place right?

    Paula isn’t sitting with the rest of the judges. Is she performing again? Ok, there she is. She must be dressed up as an empty chair.

    Cause you’re hot then you’re cold
    You’re yes then you’re no

    Right now Perry is hot. But I have a feeling that she is going to be cold very soon in this fickle music landscape.

    Noah is singing I’m The World’s Greatest. Who is Noah? I’m not sure, but Alicia Keys introduced him after talking about donating money to Africa. Is it really good to be having young kids perform R. Kelly songs these days? Yes, Noah is male. I guess that makes it better.

    Do you think that Kris Allen wishes he wasn’t quite so married these days? I think it will be great for his marriage when he doesn’t win this.

    Jordin Sparks is out singing her new single, Battlefield. It’s an ok song and is more dramatic than anything on her bubble gum rookie album. It’s what you’d expect her first single off her sophomore album to be. Thankfully she’s singing here because she needs some publicity badly. No, not like Cassie and Rihanna. You’ll see naked pictures of Adam Lambert before you’ll ever see pictures of Jordin Sparks. Ok, maybe that was a bad example.

    Before we find out who is eliminated, Katy Perry is singing Waking Up In Vegas. She’s wearing an Adam Lambert cape.

    Perry is neck and neck with Anne Hathaway in the contest to determine who the pastiest celebrity on earth is.

    And the first person who will compete next week for all the marbles is Kris Allen. His wife has to be upset.

    And the person who will compete next week against Kris Allen is Adam Lambert.

    This might be the hardest “Home Sweet Home” ever to watch. Danny dude, you walked tall.

  • Ola Ray Done Sued MJ?

    This is some late night linking, but I had to put this one up.

    According to E! Online, Ola Ray, the actress from Michael Jackson’s Thriller video is suing Mike because she’s never been paid royalties from the video. Never as in ever, ever?

    The video is over 25-years old. Maybe MJ is just late on his payments.

    But that’s not the only person who’s suing him. Longtime manager Raymone Bain is also suing him for $44 million, claiming that’s how much he owes her for brokering deals over the past five years.

    Mike, you need to put out a record quickly my friend.

  • American Idol Season 8 – Down To The Nitty Gritty

    Last night was a weird show. They weren’t convinced that they could get more than one performance per contestant in without going over the time so thus, we got duets that didn’t really count.

    Slash was the mentor and he was pretty much just there to sit like a statue in the audience. I wasn’t sure if it was him or a wax statue until he smirked one time.

    Tonight, we get down to the nitty gritty. It’s time to cut down to the top three.

    Ryno just called Randy, “the bomb.com”. I wonder if he knew where he was going to send viewers. Don’t go there unless you want a t-shirt that says, “Pedalphile”, as in, someone who has a lead foot.

    Paula Abdul is going to perform tonight as well. No word on whether or not MC Skat Kat will join her. But I bet you Arsenio Hall tunes in tonight and thinks, “Damn, I used to get at that.”

    The contestants are performing with Slash on School’s Out.

    Tickets go on sale this weekend for the Idol Live Tour. Woohoo! I mean, good for them.

    Paula is ready to take the stage. I remember that my buddy at one point said that he wished that Paula Abdul was his wife and that Janet Jackson was his mistress. Yes, this was in 1990.

    She’s performing (I’m Just) Here For The Music, which we linked to yesterday on the site.

    The girl can still move. I have to give it up. Though, there was one part where she decided to go to a mic stand and she still had the headset mic on. Why don’t you just tell those who don’t know that you’re lip synching?

    By the way, I think John Stamos and Emilio Estevez just shed a tear at the same time while watching.

    No Doubt is performing tonight? Oh yes, I nearly forgot, they’re going out on tour in the summer. Dag, Gwen Stefani has shoulders like a linebacker. I was kind of waiting for her to bust into, “This shit is bananas, b-a-n-a-n-a-s,” but it didn’t happen. Oh well.

    She decided to do push-ups on the stage, but she didn’t even go nipples to the floor. At least they were boy push-ups.

    America, you got some ‘splaining to do. Ryno just told Kris that he’s safe. His wife is very happy right now, but she’s not going to be very happy if he wins this thing. I’m surprised the panties aren’t being thrown on the stage right now.

    Daughtry is performing next and I think I only know that one song that they used to close out Idol a couple of years ago. I’m not even sure what else they sing. They’re prepping their second album that’s due out in July.

    Chris says he hopes that it performs better than their last album which went 5x platinum. You have a better chance at going back in time, getting in a time machine, and beating Taylor Hicks for American Idol bruh.

    I think the album will do very well, but no one goes 5x platinum anymore.

    Ryno just sent Adam back to safety so it’s between Allison and Danny.

    It’s officially a stag party. Allison goes home. Carrie Underwood has to sing her home sweet home.

    I’m officially heartbroken. She was my favorite.
