    I love Brooke and Jason!!!

    Thanks for the pics, they look greaaat!

  • gingerly

    They are all beautiful!!! I would venture to say this was the best looking top 10 ever.

    Whoa! Carly is gorgeous in that first pic. Those eyes!

    Thanks for these, mj. Great photos, as usual. :)

  • sciencefan

    Thank you for the pictures!

  • sumidol

    Ok and now I am over here – lordy there is too much going on in here today. Ugh – if I want friday off I better stay away and get some work done but one more thing, Jason and Brooke – you look terrific, Carly you too but girl what is with the black spandex tights under every outfit? Oh but I cant wait to hear Carly and Brooke too – but later darn it all. Ok hands off keyboard NOW

  • Same Cage

    These pictures are absolutely gorgeous!!! (Especially Jason, LOL!) They are just crystal clear!

    Thanks MJ!

  • Grammie Kari

    I love the photos of Jason. Great job, MJ!

    Brooke is such a pretty girl. I need to find the article on your experience. Thanks, MJ!

  • Hazehel

    Carly still doesn’t know how to dress like a star. That looks terrible.

  • http://myspace.com/saltwatercures pj

    Yeah, I’m not digging Carly’s outfit. There are better ways to go rocker chick, but she look pretty otherwise.

    I’m not sure Jason and Brooke are dressed like stars, either. :-) But their looks go with their vibes, if that makes sense.

  • goldenlpb

    I think Carly looks gorgeous although she dresses like she still lives in Europe. Am I mistaken or is AI using the same set they used for the AI5 tour. On a couple of the numbers I found on youtube the set looked awfully familiar.

  • october

    It looks like Jason was looking right at and singing just for you in that first pic. Oh. My. Gawsh. Those dreamy blue eyes…

    That first Carly photo is also the most stunning picture I’ve ever seen of her. She may need a copy for her scrapbook.

    Yes, that’s it! I can see her in a European disco (no offense to anyone!). She insists on covering her legs. I wonder if they are full of tats?

    I would put her in some tight jeans or leather pants and a cute top.

  • gabam

    Thanks for the pictures, MJ.

    Brooke and Jason make me happy because they look so happy. Jason has a beautifully expressive face. Even his goofy expressions are cute. *sigh*

    I would put her in some tight jeans or leather pants and a cute top.

    I don’t think I’d ever want to see leather pants ever again after the disaster Pleatherleta was. *shifty eyes*

    Anyway, I actually kind of like Carly’s shirt/dress, but I’m not digging the tights. She looks absolutely gorgeous otherwise, though.

    Brooke and Jason look pretty, as always. :) I don’t like that thing Brooke’s got over her shirt, though. It looks more like a smock to me than anything.

  • Layla

    An American who lives in Europe (Copenhagan) here.

    She dresses like girls do in the UK and Ireland and parts of eastern Europe. No girl out clubbing in continental western Europe would be caught dead wearing this style of clothing.

    Just sayin’

  • Layla

    Not wild about Brooke but she sure is a pretty young woman.

    Jason is super cute. Not hot like DC, but really really cute.

  • SpenserJ

    That first Carly photo is also the most stunning picture Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ve ever seen of her. She may need a copy for her scrapbook.

    Ya know, I hope she does somehow get to see it, because she looks absolutely beautiful. Funny enough, I actually don’t really mind her outfit.

    Brooke is gorgeous – I simply adore that girl. And, I’m really looking forward to hearing her live.

    Jason is the cuteness for sure, especially with the Uke.

    LOL. I was thinking Poland, but didn’t want to get specific. I’ve been to a few Polish-American clubs (very fun) and her look would be appropriate.

  • s3rious

    Carly looks like a star.

    Brooke looks ethereal.

    Jason looks like…Jason -> laidback, cool and havin’ a great time.

  • catdog

    This is a good lookin’ bunch for sure! Carly and Jason do have beautiful eyes but Jason wins hands down!!!

    I like Carly’s outfit – she does tend to dress more European. I wonder where they purchase their clothes for the tour and if they have a lot of say so with wardrobe and hair.

  • 4got

    Jason is gorgeous, expressive and goofy. Thanks MJ!

    Carly’s clothes are competing with her tats. Too busy!

  • CRB

    Carly looks fantastic and from the short YouTube video that I saw of Bring Me To Life she sounds even better.

    On the other two: I’m not sure what Brooke and Jason did with the rest of the wardrobe allowance they got but clearly Goodwill had some deals that were too tough to pass up.

  • Grammie Kari

    Looking back again at Brooke’s outfit…yep, she needs something less “sack-like”. However, she has such a natural beauty. Jason is almost dreamy. I am still getting early Bob Dylan vibes.

    I donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t think Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢d ever want to see leather pants ever again after the disaster Pleatherleta was. *shifty eyes*

    David Archuleta, Mariah Carey night. See: pants.

  • gingerly

    I prefer the way Carly dresses to the way Brooke dresses typically. She does dress in a European fashion. Brooke either has a hippie vibe or an old lady vibe to me. They are all gorgeous however. I can’t believe Carly’s eyes in that first pic. Too bad there weren’t any really good ones (like that) of Jason’s eyes in these pics.

    I agree!!! Carly looks stunning. Brooke dresses dorky. You would never
    guess by looking at her how young she is.

  • chewsday

    Carly’s outfit is fugly, Brooke looks beautiful, Jason’s “Crazy” is fabulous, IMHO.

  • janerazor

    The first picture of Carly is truly stunning. To me the outfit is a bit harsh and busy, but it seems in keeping with the kind of stuff she wore on the show.

    Brooke’s hair is amazing. She’s not wearing extensions or anything, right? (Though I know it must be written into the union contract that at least one performer must be wearing extensions at any given time, cuz that always seems to be the case.)

    If Jason looked any dreamier, he’d had kittens, bunnies, and unicorns napping at his feet. I know they don’t pick out their own outfits, and while I’m sure Jason is happy with his no-fuss duds…I kind of wish they’d given him something a little sharper to wear.

  • mandalay

    Hi folks. I found a short video of Carly from last night.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJP-GDOUcRw

  • cookcricket

    Carley’s dressed like Carely, Brooke’s dressed like Brooke and Jason’s dressed like Jason. I heard, read, saw (wish I had a reference, sorry) that Jason had on red boots.(?).

    They had a say and a clothing allowance on the show, so I’d imagine they’d have a say here.

  • Natasha

    Jason is dreamy and he sounded sooo good!! He’s soooo beautiful. We finally got to hear him sing ‘Crazy’ and it was awesome.

    As usual, I’m jealous of Brooke’s hair. She was great too. She was the hometown girl so I’m sure it was a special performance for her.

  • jpfan

    Hey Carly this is a family show. I wonder if these are their “costumes” and they’ll be wearing them every show. I think S6 they wore the same outfits every showand S5 everyone looked like they walked in off the street.

    OT but Cook and Archie both need new outfits pronto. Plus Brooke could look a lot better than that.

  • calimari

    I love Carly’s top, despite the tattoo. Wonder how many pair of spanx she had to put on to get into those spandex leggings! Jason always looks great & I do like Brooke’s hippy vibe.

  • Mesmerized

    This is a video of carly singing bring me to life:

    I’ve never seen McPhee wear those “prom dresses” on the street.

  • capami

    Oh Jason, why must you look so dreamy? I’m getting no work done today.

    Carly’s leggings remind me of the ones Fergie wore for Idol Gives Back.

    Brooke’s hair is amazing. She could totally star in a shampoo ad.

  • http://blog.syracuse.com/idolthoughts/ foxydonna

    Brookeà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s hair is amazing. She could totally star in a shampoo ad.

    Look out Kat, Big and Sexy may have found a new spokesmodel!

    I chuckled when I saw Jason’s “wardrobe.” Looks like his own clothes! Guess they didn’t have to spend a fortune to dress him!

    Great photos and recaps on all. Thanks MJ.

  • http://myspace.com/saltwatercures pj

    I’ve been jonesing for a Brooke vid, so I went out and found one. :-)

    Here she is doing “Yellow.”

    pj!!! I’ve been trying to find that! TY!

    Carly looks stunning in that picture. She should pay you MJ.

  • SpenserJ

    Here she is doing à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Yellow.à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ 

    Aw, thanks PJ. I love the way she does that song. I’ll probably watch this one more than is healthy as well.

  • taran33

    Wow! Carly looks stunning in that first picture.

  • hardkandy

    Thank you pj :D

    Her arrangement of that song is beautiful.

    He sure did. What is it with these boys and their shoes (Cookie’s fave boots, anyone?)? LOL

    Oh how CRAZY cool for Carly -one of my favorite songs – I bet she just loved singing that (Amy lees’s song)

  • http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=84731174 purplesmile

    Ya know, I hope she does somehow get to see it, because she looks absolutely beautiful. Funny enough, I actually donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t really mind her outfit.

    I don’t mind the outfit, either. I think it just looks very Carly. I’ve gotten used to it. As to the pic, Maybe Carly will get to see it. Her mom did. I left a message on Carly’s myspace after seeing the pic last night (my time) and I just saw now that Carly’s mom responded to thank me for pointing it out to her. She’s a sweet woman, that Marie, and gorgeous, too (Carly has great genes, lucky girl!). Heh. :)

  • awilliams

    Love all the pictures but that first one of Carly is just stunning.

    As for the comments of Carly dressing too European…what’s wrong with that?

    I lived in the UK and spent alot of time in Ireland and the funny thing was you could spot the “Yanks” a mile away by their clothing! Anyway I like the outfit she has on…if it were longer there’d be no need for the tights which are a bit distracting. Looks like alot of intricate detail on the skirt of that outfit.

    Carly is really beautiful and I’d love to see her wearing more feminine clothing… She’s got those striking contrasts: dark hair, fair complextion, and those steel-blue eyes. Ya see alot of that in Ireland.

  • Grammie Kari

    Oh yes, now I remember Archie’s pants. I thought he looked just fine. ;o) Thanks, Hiacki.

    OK, I will now admit that Carly’s outfit reminded me of an Egyptian princess. I no nothing of European clothing.

    I knew Jason was dreamy! I would love to see him on the list of ‘People’s Most Beautiful People’ or on a Gap ad. I would love to see him in something different, but this is his style.
