It’s Baaaack… American Idol To Take Over Life Again

Plenty of people consider American Idol to be a guilty pleasure. I am not one of those people. I am a proud American Idol lover. Last year I was bored during a show of songs I didn’t care about though, so I decided to “live blog” during the show. Well, to my surprise people were amused by this…even my HUMOR! Got me… I decided to keep it up and continue to live blog on American Idol and it actually started to draw in quite a bit of people from around the net, and even world! Hundreds of people were reading it. How the hell did that happen? While it wound down towards the end, I decided that since this is Simon Cowell’s last year on American Idol, it was probably the last year it will actually be relevant, so another year of live blogging it is.
I was pretty “on point” last year with my predictions of who would be voted off… yes… I am that good, through out the ENTIRE competition I was a Kris Allen obsessed fan. I didn’t think he’d overtake Adam Lambert for the win but was SHOCKED and PLEASANTLY surprised. Kelly Clarkson, Kris Allen, and Daughtry will remain my top Idols, and we shall see about this year…
Paula Abdul’s departure didn’t kill me as much as it did some, yes I will miss some of her drug induced splurges, however she “cleaned up” (as much as she could) last year so it wasn’t even that great, and I do get sick of her really idiotic clapping. I also have always liked Ellen so I think she will bring an interesting dynamic, I think she will be critical than most think, but constructive criticism, unlike Simon who calls it like he see’s it, but never goes the next step by saying what would FIX any issues, and the few times he has, he tells them it didn’t work…
Kara I think is just bipolar in her criticisms, she seems to try to final all the faults in great performances and all the positives in the bad ones making it seem like the good ones weren’t great and the bad ones were good. Stop trying to play a mix of Paula and Simon. It doesn’t work. Randy. You are in my dog house. I don’t want to hear anything about being pitchy or anything related to your dogs or who you’ve worked with in the past. We get it. You were a producer to big stars. Congrats. I am also not QUITE ready for Ryan Seacrest’s bad jokes or Ford commercials that I think are completely stupid (sorry Mom), but it’s TIME so I have no choice!
Live blogging will only begin with the Top 12, there’s just nothing to say about crappy auditions, though could have some good comments on some of the guest judges during the auditions like Posh and whoever else did it too. I will keep updating my post as I go through out the show, usually after the judging of a performance, with the newer comments on the bottom (just to keep it in an easier chronological order) only on performance nights! I will also add the “Dial Idol” results the MORNING AFTER which predicts the person being kicked off and their margin of error. They are usually on spot, but last year there were way too many “too close to call” moments.
Let’s see how this season goes! Will next year be X-Factor live blogging instead??
