Ameican Idol Semi-shocker

mycoupons | 11 April, 2008 10:43

Hi everyone! 

So I must say I'm a little bit shocked about the American Idol elimination last night.  I realize that the bunch is dwindling down and someone must go every week, but will someone please tell me WHEN IS FREAKIN KRISTY LEE COOK GOING TO BE ELIMINATED!!!  I thought FOR SURE last night was her night.  And then she wasn't even in the bottom three.  WHO THE HECK IS VOTING FOR THIS GIRL?! 

I really didn't think this was the week for Michael Johns to go.  He took on a big task channeling Steven Tyler, but IMO he did quite well.  Kristy Lee Cook on the other hand is cute, yes, BUT CAN SHE PLEASE JUST LEAVE?!  She is a better singer than the average human being but she doesn't belong on the same stage as someone like say, David Cook!  My incredible dislike for her had to have started around the night that she ABSOLUTLY MURDERED 'Eight Days a Week' by the Beatles.  They are one of the greatest bands of all time and for her to turn it into that honky tonk crap that she calls a 'strong performance' is beyond my realm of understanding.  I love love love country, but you NEVER turn a Beatles song into a little honky tonk, cowboy boots wearin, foot stompin, dosey-do, swing your partner and clap your hands JIG.  Phew.

On the other hand, and I don't care what anyone says, I absolutely LOVE Jason Castro.  Not only do I think that he is beautiful and I love his dreads, but his soft singing and guitar/eucalalie playing is magical.  He sang one of my all time FAVORITE songs on Tuesday- Israel Kamakawiwo Ole's version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow.  I really really want someone to play that at my wedding :) 

I personally think that Syesha Mercado will go next if you crazies that are voting for Kristy Lee Cook have anything to do with it.  I'm hoping that if that's the scenario, then Kristy will go home the week after that. 

And I really think that David Cook will win.  If he doesn't win it'll be exactly like what happened to Chris Daughtry (who deserved to win over Taylor Hicks) but he will for sure get together with an amazing band so I won't even sweat it. 

Oh one more thing--if you guys like American Idol then I'm sure you all watched Idol Gives Back on Wednesday.  Can you believe that they've raised around $80 million?!  I made my donation today for $100.  It's not much, but it will feed one orphan for an entire year!  Even if you don't have much, every little bit counts.  You can make your donation at https://www.idolaid.com/AidForm.asp.  Just a few dollars can save lives. 

TGIF!
