How's it going,peeps? Today's Friday and you know what that means....AMERICAN IDOL IS ON TONIGHT ON 8TV! Check out below for more of Friday night's highlights!
American Idol:8 Boys - 9.30pm
=>=Spoiler!Read With Caution!=<= So tonight we get to see the remaining 8 boys perform their hearts out in order to get into the top 12. The list of songs performed on the show are as follows:
Singer: Blake Lewis
Song: "All Mixed Up"
Judges take:Randy, who's never heard the song, loved how current it is. Paula also didn't know the song, but liked it. Hmmm... How hip. The song comes off a 1995 album. Simon didn't understand a word of the song, but says Blake stands out and that it wasn't karaoke. How would Simon know if it sounded like karaoke if he doesn't know the song? Go figure.
Singer: Sanjaya Malakar
Song: "Waiting On the World to Change"
Judges take:Randy calls him on his lack of energy and wonders where Sanjaya's spark went. Paula doesn't agree completely, but sure agrees mostly. Simon's good news is that it wasn't as ghastly as last week and suggests that Sanjaya's hair might be keeping him in.
Singer: Sundance Head
Song: "Jeremy"'
Judges take:Randy, though, found it kind of hot and appreciated the try. Paula says he pulled into his Sundance groove mid-way through. Simon thought he lost his charm and became a generic bar singer. Sundance argues that the shouting-over-singing style was true to the original. Eh? O_o
Singer: Chris Richardson
Song: "Tonight I Wanna Cry"
Judges take:Randy is loving things about everybody and he throws out the in-it-to-win-it idiocy. Who isn't in it to win it, exactly? And what, pray tell, are those folks in it for? The chance to be used as cheap labor on future Ford commercials? You're getting boring, dawg. Paula thought Chris adapted well. Simon criticizes Chris' voice as timid and nasally, but says he sold it.
Singer: Jared Cotter
Song: "If You Really Love Me"
Judges take:Randy calls it solid. Whoa. Paula goes dark and tells him that Jared needs to learn to color his performances. Simon thinks it wasn't original enough. He's slightly disappointed.
Singer: Brandon Rogers
Song: "I Just Want to Celebrate"
Judges take:Randy's conflicted and it was solid. Paula, though, dubs it phenomenal. Simon had high hopes for Brandon, but doesn't think he represented well.
Singer: Phil Stacey
Song: "I Need You"
Judges take:Randy says the high notes are good, but the lower stuff isn't and compares him (weirdly) to Steve Perry of Journey. Paula didn't like the song choice. Simon didn't get it, finding fault with the hat and his eyes and the song and several other things.
Singer: Chris Sligh
Song: "Wanna Be Loved"
Judges take:It wasn't Randy's favorite song choice, but he gives Chris the vocal prize of the night. Paula wants Chris to rise above rather than be comfortable in the middle. Simon thought Chris shouted in the middle, but he did enough to make it through.
AI judges from left to right: Randy,Paula & Simon.
TONIGHT'S BEST: Oh my. Blake started the night with mediocre 10-year-old karaoke and an hour later, he stands out as the show's best? Randy, Paula and Simon agree that no more than three or four men deserve to be in the Top 12. Whoa.
IN DANGER: This is tough, since we can't eliminate five people (I'd let both Chrises and Blake stay and start fresh from there). Sanjaya and Sundance deserve to go home, but probably won't. Instead, my hunch is that Phil and Jared are in trouble, but Brandon should be nervous as well.
Agree?Disagree? Did you find kernals of brilliance in any of tonight's performances? Just leave a memo in the comments section! ;)
Suki New Year Special (repeat) -10.30pm
So you missed out on the Suki New Year Special which we've aired early this year? No worries! Catch the repeat tonight and you get to celebrate the New Year all over again with Suki (OIAM winner) as we recap her rise and win on One in a Million.
What do you think of Suki's hit single 'Berdiri'? Like it or loathe it? :)
Stacked: Two Faces of Eve- 11pm Skyler reunites with an old friend, Eve, who she hasn't seen in a very long time. To her surprise, Eve looks completely different from how she did at their previous meeting, and is planning a wedding. Eve then asks Skyler to be her maid of honor.
Pic of the day:
Pamela Anderson at the launch of the Baywatch DVD Boxset party. Speaking of Baywatch,8TV will air Baywatch Yr.3 in April! Wohooo!
I think this photo makes a very good point. Pamela Anderson does not look good with straight hair. Embrace your hot rollers,girl.
Thaaaaat's all folks! See ya at the cross roads! ;)
