The quality of the contestant have gone waaayyyyyy down since season 3 and never recovered.

The only ex finalist from AGT that have a performance at result show this season is Terry Fator who win seasn 2 and now has his own Vegas show. The producer even did no bother to ask Neal the season 3 winner to sing .

And though this show had Simon Cowell as producer, its kind of too obvious and a little insulting by putting Susan Boyle perform at pimp spot in finale result. (other singing guest stars: Shakira, Leona Lewis and Rascal Flat)

Come on. Susan even have not release an album. And yes she is a not a bad singer but definitely did not had any star quality just like Neal and Kevin Skinner.

But Simon Cowell PR maybe manage to promote her all out and her first solo album can be a success.

MJ, have I told you lately I love you?

Seriously, this dude Kevin Skinner makes Taylor Hicks sound like Pavarotti. Epic Embarrassment. And I’m sure this shit show slaughtered Glee in the ratings.

This is so funny to me. ‘Cause I think Taylor Hicks sucks (he gives me the creeps) and I loved Kevin Skinner’s audition and his other performances. I guess we all have opinions and that is what makes the world go round.

But I think Recycled Percussion is good too. Their act is Las Vegasy.

Please, someone explain that to me.

I don’t really think anybody needs to explain anything. Even if one of us who does enjoy his talent does explain it to you, there’s a great chance you still will disagree.

So I think it’s better to agree to disagree. Nobody is right or wrong here.

Also, Susan’s performance was taped….I read that at another blog. Evidentally, she came in on Tuesday and taped the song. Simon had put her up at the Bel Air Hotel. Anyway, she was enroute back to England by the time AGT aired Wed. I read that Susan had a friend back home die on her just recently…Anyway, the producers were fearful she would crack in front of a live audience. Now this is my take on things…for all of you with tapes of the performance, review it and let me know if my assumptions are correct here: If you notice the long shots of her on stage during the performance, you could not see any heads in the audience like you could during other performances from anyone else. At the end, yes, you saw the judges standing and the audience standing up, but if you notice, they never did a close up of her breathing in the applause, because there was actually a look-a-like fill-in on stage. Nick never approached her for a close up because the ‘Real’ Susan wasn’t on stage…because her performance was already filmed the day b4 in an empty auditorium. The producers cleverly pieced everything together to make it look live. Also too, you can see that the word ‘live’ on the top left of the tv screen, left her shots when she began to sing.

Anyway, AGT was a real disappointment this season, but it still brought in the ratings for NBC. The show is definately not a ‘Star Search’…where long term stars had emerged. The only thing good that has come from AGT has been Terry Fator.

Y’all, I haven’t been so happy to hear Magic Rainbow since Cookie nabbed the AI crown.

Just heard about this. Is there a video?

It was played during a very lonnng montage. I’m not sure if there’s video or not…maybe try searching America’s Got Talent montage on youtube? But it was damn funny to be half heartedly paying attention, suddenly hear that familiar opening preamble and realize, “Holy hell! Rainbow LIVES!” Muwah. Such an undead badass of a song.

Now that its over I feel I just wasted a couple of months of my life I can’t get back. Don’t think I will be doing that again. Is this really one of the most popular shows? I just can’t believe that. They must have been joking! Well then again I tuned in when I wasn’t a fan so I guess it could be. LOL

I did find Susan Boyle’s performance lovey, though.

He represents that ordinary musician who has struggled for years as people laughed him off who finally got his chance to shine. Plus, he’s an incredibly down-to-earth gentleman who just seemed thankful that he was even in the position he was in. He went from a chicken-catcher to a millionaire with tons of fans who gets to perform at a 5-star event (Vegas show).

I’m so happy for him and his family. I like it when good people (and talented) get their shot. It’s a great thing.

I am behind you Kevin all the way. I love you. Thank you for Blessing us with your singing.

I will be praying for you! God Bless!!!
