Idol Headlines for 3/6/08

But hey, who needs specificity about dates when you’ve got one judge who thinks she’s living on Planet Zorg in the year 3.14?

Just made my day! ROFLMAO

The Color Purple, the movie musical? Well, I won’t be there, but look forward to watching 19A-Z’s efforts in getting their chosen one an Oscar.

Poor Haley Scarnato — that’s just scary. People breaking into your house and taking stuff, YIKES! Hope moving out of Nashville takes care of it.

Who do I think is going to be the big “surprise” boots tonight:

Michael Johns (received the drummer of death four times in one song)

SyNOsha — O.K., I’m just hoping she’s the surprise boot because honestly can’t stand her.

Easy to pick boots: Luke (sorry Orlando) and Kady (unfortunately because there is some big unrealized talent there)

Random thoughts: I love Amanda, but there are going to be some big trainwrecks coming up for her because girl can’t follow a melody.

David Hernandez has the most beautiful eyebrows.

Nothing will ever beat the Haley Scarnato/Sabrina Sloan showdown of 2007.

I do agree with the mtv article a bit and that also bothers me about David A.Looking back I just do not agree about Elliott Yamin is good but not a fantastic vocal artist exspecially when he uses vibrados. I think of him along the lines of CLay or Reuban but going more the pop route.

Ai got a rating of 28.2 millon on tuesday…better than last year I do not know but seems to be getting mixed reviews.

Doing “The Color Purple” over again the first movie wih Whoopie Goldberge and operah was a very good movie.

Found this on another site, but it’s too fun not to share:

David H and his group Vinyl Four singing in the hallway of a cruise ship

thanks kristen…

Oprah is the correct spelling…
Hey I do not know what to think about some contestants past and future..things change…

America is totally ready for a gay Idol contestant. I’m not sure if any of the gay contestants are good enough to win this year … well, except for David Archuleta, but I’m sure he isn’t out even to himself yet … but I’m happy at the thought of it happening in the future.

Who do I think is going to be the big à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“surpriseà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  boots tonight:

Michael Johns (received the drummer of death four times in one song)

Nooooo!

(That would cost me points in the pool. Heh.)

I’m another who sees some ‘big, unrealized talent’ in Kady Malloy.
But it looks like she’s a goner, and we’ve barely caught a glimpse of what she can do.

Those ratings are almost equal to the final ratings last season, and once the final ones are in it should show an increase.

I hope it’s alright to post this in this thread…this baby (a Jason fan, it seems) is too cute!

“Cool…cool!”

T2: I won’t be at the CP movie either. I’m burned out. I read the book, saw CP1 and CP broadway show. They’re running it in the ground….like the Producers IMO.

Correction: If it’s on TV I will see it, but not pay $$ for the movie.

T2: I love Amanda, but you’re right she cannot carry a melody…big train wreck coming if she survives…she kind of looks like she doesn’t want to be there…but they’re casting for the Janis role, maybe she can audition.

Deleted because of lack of computer knw-how..

I hope David Hernandez gets voted off. Sorry.

I just don’t like him or his performances. And it doesn’t have anything to do with his past as a nude stripper. I couldn’t care less.

But… even though he can sing, his performances are just so over the top and too dramatic IMO. Maybe he will be the surprise boot tonight. At least, I wish.

Most probably it will be Luke and Chikezie who will get the boot tonight.
For the girls I am going with: Kady and Asia’h.
Or maybe Kady and Kristy. Kady for sure. That’s not very hard to figure out.

This is a first this season:

iTunes Top 100 Singles:

94. Hallelujah (American Idol Performance) – Jason Castro

The Jeff Buckley version is still at number 2.

I wonder if two versions of the same song can make it on the Hot 100 this week.

I hope ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s alright to post this in this threadà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦this baby (a Jason fan, it seems) is too cute!

à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Coolà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦cool!à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ 

Priceless!

This is a first this season:

iTunes Top 100 Singles:

94. Hallelujah (American Idol Performance) – Jason Castro

The Jeff Buckley version is still at number 2.

I wonder if two versions of the same song can make it on the Hot 100 this week.

I hope so!

What is up with iTunes having everybody’s performances from this week available EXCEPT Michael and David Cook? At least I got Jason’s performance so I won’t break the computer just yet.

Loved Brooke, Amanda and Carly last night in that order. That is all.

iTunes Top 100 Singles:

94. Hallelujah (American Idol Performance) – Jason Castro

Wouldn’t it be fun if the Top 100 from iTunes was actually a theme one night and they could be themselves doing another persons song!

Does this show how tired I am?

94. Hallelujah (American Idol Performance) – Jason Castro

Wow, and that’s in less than 24 hours!

I agree, Kady is this year’s Brandon Rogers. You can tell she has a ton of talent but she just can’t seem to get it across. Bonus points though for the all-time best bitchface.

I don’t think that David H is too over-the-top. That’s just the kind of singer I like. I compare him to Elliott, in that he is such a true pure singer. I hope he makes it deep.

My boot list tonight = Kady, Kristi Lee, Luke, Chikezie

(also solid shirt not black or grey – it’s time for white;
number of straws showing, 1)

Wouldnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t it be fun if the Top 100 from iTunes was actually a theme one night and they could be themselves doing another persons song!

It would be trippy. “Simon, actually, I was singing the Jason Castro version of that song”.

I checked the iTunes Pop 100 and Jason C is still the only Idol showing up there, so it looks like he’s the only Idol moving significant units of his song.

Here are songs played on AI on the iTunes Pop 100:
22. Hallelujah (American Idol Performance) – Jason Castro
45. It’s All Coming Back to Me Now – Celine Dion
79. I Wanna Dance with Somebody – Whitney Houston
84. Hallelujah – k.d. lang
100. Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go – Wham!

And on the iTunes Top 100 Rock:
28. Love is a Battlefield – Pat Benatar
39. Faithfully – Journey
40. Don’t You (Forget About Me) – Simple Minds
86. Another Day in Paradise – Phil Collins

And, just for kicks, iTunes Top 100 Alternative Songs
1. Hallelujah – Jeff Buckley
13. Hallelujah – Jeff Buckley
84. Hallelujah – Jeff Buckley

It’s always interesting to see which songs pop (I swear, I won’t be updating this every hour, MJ…this is just a snapshot)

A poster at IDF has passed along this riddle, supposedly from Aunt Edna about tonight’s boots.

Its all a bunch of jibberish to me.

Results nights are never much fun, as dreams are crushed, hearts broken one by one.

The twins will cry buckets this much I know. Votes have been counted one will stay one will go.

Grandmas, grandpas, moms and dad have been watching for weeks as Simon gets mad.

Now the parents all watch as it goes the wrong way. He has to go home, Simon said he would stay.

Some parents however will be bursting with pride. Imagine watching your 2 sons begin this free ride.

John and Whoopi have been watching now they are bursting with glee. The numbers are in and he’s number 3.

Ma and Pa Brady know it’ll all hit the fanà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦ RUN- but first congratulate Marcia and Jan.

Every season on Idol Divas are fun, Fantasia, Latoya, oops now there are none.

What is up with iTunes having everybodyà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s performances from this week available EXCEPT Michael and David Cook? At least I got Jasonà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s performance so I wonà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t break the computer just yet.

The only way I could find David’s was to search for “American Idol Performance.” It shows up in the list there, but if you just click on his picture on the main page, it’s as if “Hello” never happened. I think he would be moving more units if people could find his song (same with Michael)

I will play the guessing game

The twins who cry, Ramiele and Danny – one goes, one stays (based on later clues, Danny goes – oh no)

Simon said he would stay, but he goes – David H

John(Travolta) and Whoopi are proud of their son at #3 – Jason C, of course!

Marcia and Jan stay – Kady and Kristie

The divas are gone – Syesha and Asia’h

I hope this is a hoax.

Yay! Riddles… I’ll take a crack at it. My guesses:

The twins will cry buckets this much I know. Votes have been counted one will stay one will go.

Twins = Two blondes (Kady or Kristy), two R&B signers (Sayesha or Asiah) or two adorable peas-in-a-pod (Ramiele or Danny) I’m thinking Danny? He and and Ramiele are weepers… so is David A, but he’s not a “twin” is he?

Now the parents all watch as it goes the wrong way. He has to go home, Simon said he would stay.

Michael Johns or David Hernandez. I’d be more surprised about it being Michael with all his pimage, but he’s been rather inconsistent last couple weeks. That would make Simon “mad”, wouldn’t it? David Hernandez leaving would make ME sad but he had one of those songs, and middle of the singing order (plus nudity!) so maybe he didn’t stand out (or stood out too much).

Ma and Pa Brady know ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ll all hit the fanà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦ RUN- but first congratulate Marcia and Jan.

Cindy goes home… Kady, I think.

That’s all I got.

ETA: flicker probably got it right. Except I think it could be Michael that goes.

Aunt Edna’s whacked….Ma and Pa Brady? Marcia and Jan? Cindy gets the boot? Peter? Bobby? Greg? I don’t remember any of those Idols, so that must be the reason why they are getting tossed

Er…Carly sang Cyndi Lauper so she gets the boot?

LOL. Well, I’m sure we could twist it any which way to make it fit after we know who gets the boot. I missed Aunt Edna last year. Was she on Team Indifference as well?

My guessses based on that:

1. Kady (one of the two blonde twins left…lots of crying last week when the triplet left…I hope it’s Kristy, though)
2. David H (Simon said he was safe, but the parent clue? What? Maybe it’s Danny)
3. I have no idea. Imagine would indicate David A, but that’s not going to happen. 2 sons? Is there some plant that VFTW has failed to turn up? I’ll say Luke because everybody thinks he’s going home (even Simon). Does Whoopi hate him?
4. Syesha. She’s the most diva-ish left. Although, this could fit Asia’h or Ramielle.

The twins who cry, Ramiele and Danny – one goes, one stays (based on later clues, Danny goes – oh no)

Good point. Those two have been crying a lot and he was wearing her glasses. LOL.

Good call on the John/Whoopi indicating Jason C…he couldn’t possibly be the third bootee, could he? Or is she saying that he’s on the seal. Wow, move a couple of 100K of a song and you still aren’t safe? Just goes to show that voting != sales.

(or that Edna’s clues are hard to read).

Edna’s clues could indicate a very shocking night (or a very, very good prank)

Good call on the John/Whoopi indicating Jason Cà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦he couldnà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t possibly be the third bootee, could he? Or is she saying that heà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s on the seal. Wow, move a couple of 100K of a song and you still arenà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t safe? Just goes to show that voting != sales.

Well, if they are bursting with glee, I assume that means he’s safe, and has the 3rd highest votes. (disclaimer – I rarely put stock in these things, but it’s something to do until SHOWTIME!)

Ack! I hate riddles. I now predict that I will get no more than 5 points on this week’s Idol Pool. Why can’t more people suck like Luke?

My guess…..

The twins will cry buckets this much I know. Votes have been counted one will stay one will go.

Since the girls are referenced below, this has to mean Ramiele and Danny with Danny going home. BUMMER!

Now the parents all watch as it goes the wrong way. He has to go home, Simon said he would stay.

This sounds like it refers to Simon’s comment to David H. about staying. I can’t make any correlation to Luke, who is obviously going. WAIT-did he say the same to Chikeze????????

Ma and Pa Brady know ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ll all hit the fanà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦ RUN- but first congratulate Marcia and Jan.

Cindy-Youngest = Kady

Every season on Idol Divas are fun, Fantasia, Latoya, oops now there are none.

I agree with Kristen-Syesha is the most diva-ish

cheese

Ack! I hate riddles. I now predict that I will get no more than 5 points on this weekà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s Idol Pool. (Why canà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t more people suck like Luke?)

LMAO! :jittery_tb:

Well, if they are bursting with glee, I assume that means heà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s safe, and has the 3rd highest votes.

Well, “glee” does rhyme better with “three” than “depressed” would. I don’t know. It’s just that we rarely find out who is in the top 3. Maybe that’s just an extra fact thrown in

(disclaimer – I rarely put stock in these things, but ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s something to do until SHOWTIME!)

Exactly. Good fun like the fake spoilers from earlier this week. Much better way to fill the time than another season 5 fan war.

Some parents however will be bursting with pride. Imagine watching your 2 sons begin this free ride.

The only thing I can think of for this is that David is safe (Imagine) and maybe Jason C. “Free Ride” was featured in the movie Dazed and Confused. Didn’t Ryan make a comment that Jason was shocked or confused or something? Stretching, I know.

Wait, if this indicates that David and Danny are leaving, then Luke would be staying, and who the hell voted for Cheesy McJitterbug? Maybe it is Ramiele and Syesha, and Danny is staying?

who the hell voted for Cheesy McJitterbug?

Seriously. He’s not THAT cute.

New Edna riddle:

Pimping aint easy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt.

1-Tom Cameron Olsen

2-Bo Daughtry

3-John Goldberg

4-Steve Hutchins

5- Luther Houston

6-Ace Duke

7-Clay Alba

8-Chip N. Dale

Looks like a supposed guy vote total list.

Clay Alba sounds like Danny and Chip N. Dale is surely a reference to David H.

The others?
I’d guess:
1-Tom Cameron Olsen– David A

2-Bo Daughtry– David C

3-John Goldberg– Jason

4-Steve Hutchins– Michael

5- Luther Houston– Chickeze

6-Ace Duke– Luke

TMZ.com is reporting

Well-connected record industry sources tell TMZ the major publishers (including Sony and Warner) have already set their sights on David Archuleta and David Hernandez. The record publishers have already told their songwriters to write songs specifically for David-squared, whether they win or not.

Sources say this is the earliest publishers have ever committed to the contestants.
************************ Tmz reported something similar last week….they are “fairly” reliable….but I wonder why they’re after David H.? I can see David A. but not H.
Acc to TMZ, no one is interested in the girls.

Someone in the IDF Brain Trust pointed out that the twins could refer to the two Cooks, Kristy Lee and David. It certainly makes sense that Kristy Lee would go.

Hmm,
1. David A
2. David C
3. Jason
4. Michael
5. Chikezie
6. WTF? Luke?!

I’m never going to be able to drag my daughter to the tour with me if Danny is not included, and I need the 10-year old to seem less pathetic.

1-Tom Cameron Olsen- David A

2-Bo Daughtry- David Cook

3-John Goldberg- Jason C

4-Steve Hutchins

5- Luther Houston- Chikeze

6-Ace Duke-

7-Clay Alba- Danny N

8-Chip N. Dale- David H

Those would be my guesses. I’m not sure who would be Ace Duke/Steve Hutchins between Luke and Michael.

ETA: Have we heard any word from Nigel about whether it’s a shocking elim? I too will be disappointed if Danny leaves.

ETA2: Oh, Ace and Luke both sang George Michael songs.

Nooooo please no shock eliminations!

Acc to TMZ, no one is interested in the girls.

Well, that makes a lot of us. Maybe they are pulling David H. out like they did Mario? Too hot for the show, but they see a future in him? They can play the entire, “treated unfairly and here is his second chance?”

Those would be my guesses. Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m not sure who would be Ace Duke/Steve Hutchins between Luke and Michael.

Randy keeps saying Michael reminds him of Michael Hutchins from INXS. Luke is likened to Ace because of his good looks? Duke? I don’t know.

Steve probably refers to Steve Irwin– ala an Australian. Hutchins probably refers to Randy’s inference on Tuesday night.

I love “Tom Cameron Olsen”– or, T.C.O. Funny stuff.

This could all be way off, but it’s making for a fun afternoon.

Why would Warners tell songwriters to write songs for Idol contestants. Is Warners part of the Clive empire? I thought they were a separate label. Story dosn’t seem right. However, if I had to sign two people off this season those would be the 2 I’d chose. David H has a decent voice and his male stripper background won’t hurt if he starts making club music. He could be Mario V #2 but with more talent.

There is no way Luke is escaping the boot tonight. I say that riddle is bogus.

Steve probably refers to Steve Irwinà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’ ala an Australian. Hutchins probably refers to Randyà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s inference on Tuesday night.

I love à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Tom Cameron Olsenà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ Ãƒ ¢Ã¢â€š ¬’ or, T.C.O. Funny stuff.

This could all be way off, but ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s making for a fun afternoon.

LOL. Ohh..

4 sounds like Michael J and 5 like Chikeze..6 could be Luke?

Have no idea on Tom Olsen and Bo Daughtry.

1-Tom Cameron Olsen

THE CHOSEN ONE, I wonder who that could be..

Oops- someone beat me too it..

Anyway, I hope that list is NOT correct…

Aww. this is so fun! Who is this aunt anyway? So the spoiler is a woman?

If Luke stays, then he is Sanjaya of this season, not Danny.

Why would Warners tell songwriters to write songs for Idol contestants. Is Warners part of the Clive empire?

No. Warners is the competition (both Warner and Sony/BMG are each one of the 4 Majors).

I can’t believe that they’re only interested in 2 people out of the whole batch. Some of the other boys seem more “marketable” than David A and H, but Jason and David C write their own music anyway.

Luke staying might be the biggest shocker in AI history, if those spoilers are correct. It just does not seem possible to me.

Randy keeps saying Michael reminds him of Michael Hutchins from INXS. Luke is likened to Ace because of his good looks? Duke? I donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t know.

Figured it out… Duke rhymes with Luke and they both sang George Michael or Wham songs.

If Luke stayed, it wouldn’t be too much of a shocker. I think we saw this last year…

Good looking? Check.
Average/poor voice? Check.
Simon totally ragging on them top 16 night? Check.

Haley Scarnato 2.0…

David H can be his Sabrina Sloan.

Maybe they mistaken David H for David C? I can see a label interested in David C. There is no way that Jason will be successful in the outside world imo.

Luke staying might be the biggest shocker in AI history, if those spoilers are correct. It just does not seem possible to me.

Luke must be big in Hawaii.

If Luke stays, then he is Sanjaya of this season, not Danny

He’s more like the Haley of this season. Maybe he’ll wear shorts next week.

ETA Preston made the case better than I did.

The only way I could find Davidà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s was to search for à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“American Idol Performance.à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ 

Thanks, cheese. That worked.

Can someone please fill me in on who Aunt Edna is?

The TMZ story and the riddle seem bogus. David H is not such a phenom that Warners will be writing music in the hope that by Fall, 08, he’ll be available. Especially, if he gets booted off Idol tonight. It’s out of sight, out of mind. I think Jason needs great songs and Cook needs a great band to sell CDs. David A is a surer bet if I’m a music mogul so I believe he’ll get signed no matter what.

I would not be shocked if Danny and David got sent home. Not at all. But it would SUCK, majorly. If it’s true though, Luke will not make the tour.

Every season on Idol Divas are fun, Fantasia, Latoya, oops now there are none.

That could mean 2 divas go. I think Syesha and Asiah better be scared. I would add Ramielle but the other clues indicate she’s safe.

I don’t get the “2 sons” reference at all.

Do I recall that Aunt Edna a) was wrong as much as “she” was right and b) only had access to phone votes?

If BOTH Luke and Chickeze make it into the top 12, I call foul right now without even knowing who gets the boot. Honestly I can make a case for one OR the other making it to the top 12, but if BOTH make it then IMO TPTB are just working to make it easier for the top 4 to succeed.

Oh yes, I own several very large sized plots on the Grassy Knoll.

Can someone please fill me in on who Aunt Edna is?

Aunt Edna is someone with access to supposedly accurate inside info. There are a lot of posers though…..

Do I recall that Aunt Edna a) was wrong as much as à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“sheà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  was right and b) only had access to phone votes?

Oh, I see. Well text votes tend to skew younger, so looking at that guy list, it would seem that perhaps Damny would get a boost. That would put Luke and David H out. That doesn’t sound too far off, in theory anyway.

Duke-John Wayne man I thought he died years ago… Now that would be a shocking elimantion.

(not responisible for bad jokes)

OMG, what to do. If I believe the spoilers and change my pool votes, I could make a killing. If I’m wrong, I’ll get creamed. What to do, what to do.

OMG, what to do. If I believe the spoilers and change my pool votes, I could make a killing. If Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m wrong, Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ll get creamed. What to do, what to do

I may change my votes before the show, but I’m not going to base it on the riddles. There seems to be some question about whether these are legit “Aunt Edna” spoilers. It’s fun, though.

Zabasearch is saying Luke and Chikezie have the least amount of votes, but I think they base their predictions on web search numbers.

Me, I’m gonna make a cup of tea….I’ll report back on what the tea leaves say.

LOL, I’ll have one more chance to change my votes before the show. I have to teach a class from 5:30 to 6:30 – so I’ll have a little time to do it when I get home. It’ll give me time to ponder.

ETA: zabasearch is definitely inaccurate, based on prior years.

Luke is likened to Ace because of his good looks? Duke? I donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t know.

Ah, I think I may know where the Duke comes from, other than just rhyming with Luke — Matthew Metzger (from Season 3?), who Luke kind of resembles, played DUKE Buchanan on “One Life to Live.”

AHHHHHH I’m faced with the same dilemma…

I think I’m going to change my vote from Chikezie to David H and from Kristy to Syesha.

I’ll probably stick with Luke and Kady though. Haven’t made up my mind yet. Could Danny really go?

As for the overall pick, I changed it from Michael to little D in mj’s pool and from Michael to David Cook in Rickey’s. Hopefully, I’ll get one right

7-Clay Alba- Danny N

8-Chip N. Dale- David H

I agree and damn. Damn. Damn. Damn.

Danny entertains me and David Hernandez is probably my favorite male voice this season. Damn.

I have a hard enough time getting through the elimiantion rounds and I don’t think I can watch at all tonight.

Tmz reported something similar last weekà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦.they are à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“fairlyà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  reliableà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦.but I wonder why theyà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢re after David H.? I can see David A. but not H.

If TMZ is right (aren’t they are pretty dubious?), David A is a no brainer and I can absolutely believe there would be interest in David Hernandez. He knows how to work a song and I personally think his voice is reminiscent of singers like Amos Lee, Ben Harper or Elliott Yamin, that neo-soul vibe. His past isn’t going to be a problem either for the kind of audience he’d appeal to.

primeminister, I just did that same thing. I may change back though, before the show :wallbash_tb:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO – not David H! I hate it when the good ones get kicked off.

Karen — I on the Hernandez train with ya. The boy can sing.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dotv49dv3no&feature=user
FUNNY NORIEGA SPOOF!!

I’m not surprised if there is interest in David H. He may not have the most hype, he may not get pimped, may not be a pretty boy like Michael or Luke, but the boy can flat out SING. IMO he’s right up there as one of the best vocalists out of everyone remaining.

Ace Duke – clever. Ace and Luke are both cute and both sang George Michael songs.

Duke, as in Luke Duke, from the Dukes of Hazzard.

I really hope that the clues are not correct and that Luke leaves instead of David H. I have a feeling that I will be sad tonight. David H and Danny are two of my favorites, after Jason C, of course.

Now Joesplace is confirming that the Aunt Edna riddles are fake.

Back to ordinary speculation!

(though I still think, like I have since Tuesday night, that David H is quite vulnerable… it’s just a feeling.)

I can live with Luke Menard being this season’s Haley Scarnato. :wub_tb: He might look good in hot pants.

here is a recent performance by last years winner Jordin Sparks of the Whitney song Asia’h did last night .Asia’h did a good job but as Simon says if you are going to do Whitney you have to be as good and Jordin comes close .

http://youtube.com/watch?v=kBPe2Yrz7ns

Who is Aunt Edna for the uninformed? :blush_tb:

ETA: Sorry, I was on the first page when I posted.

Aunt Edna is *supposed* to be an insider in the know but I don’t remember that her/his track record was that good.

There was a guy on mj’s way back when – Fred – who did seem to be in the know. Maybe Edna is Fred.

Anyway, I do enjoy the stir Aunt Edna’s causes~!

No WAY Luke is staying. No WAY chekezie is either.

I don’t care as long as David C, Michael, Jason, and Carly stay. David H has a nice voice but I haven’t liked his song choices. I’d like to hear them all sing a song that could be out there now and see what they sound like instead of the boring songs that many of them are picking.

Now Joesplace is confirming that the Aunt Edna riddles are fake.

YEAH!

Going to change my picks one last time!

http://perezhilton.com/2008-03-06-in-the-psych-ward

Season 1 contestant Nikki McKibbin was recently placed under psychiatric observation for 72 hours after suffering a severe breakdown in late February.

According to a police report, Nikki called a friend and told her that she was feeling depressed and wanted to kill herself The friend called the police who arrived to find the fallen Idol with a number of pills in her hand.

That is soo sad I hope she gets the help she needs…I am also glad her friend called the police……
