man, you must be super lucky to get through all these auditions cos it all depends on what the show is looking for instead of actual talent.

Yep.

there’s a lot more if you just go to youtube, type in ‘american idol LA’ , and sort by ‘newest’.

thanks Duke for the link. wow! only this season i found out that before you get to the judges you need to get through other people. i saw this interview with this guy who went to the chicago auditions and he said that normally for the first round its the junior producers, then middle level producers and then you get to sing in front of the big producers so last yr it was nigel lythgoe. man, you must be super lucky to get through all these auditions cos it all depends on what the show is looking for instead of actual talent. and some of the rejectees sang really well!

Season 9′s winner will be a crying girl.

NO!!! ahh! haha…

I really wonder what is going to happen with S9 if they do not find another Adam-like superstar. You *know* TPTB desperately want another one. Will viewers watch without an Adam-like superstar (b/c Adam cannot be duplicated)? Of course, we said that after Cook, but Adam is, dare I say it, even bigger. Love you, Kris, I really do, but a lot of us watched for Adam first, you, second, Allison or Matt or Anoop, third, and so on.

No, they’re not going to find another Adam, but they’re not going to find someone like Kris either. And it’s not like viewers watched only for Adam since the ratings have decreased from last year. They always… well, almost every season.. find a superstar but they come in all different forms. I’m just wondering what kind of back stories they can find this year since they already had a widower, natural disaster victim, oil rigger, etc. all covered. Oh wait, they have the best friend of the widower, the brother of a past contestant, and a crying girl. wahh!

can i make a prediction that season 9′s winner will be a male country singer? or a female rocker? those 2 niches haven’t been taken by a winner yet right? hehe

Season 9′s winner will be a crying girl.

It would be awesome if she could sing well because the shock of the judges and viewers would priceless… but she’s probably just an attention. I hope she doesnt cry but actually approaches the auditions seriously *like that would ever happen*

This is so weird, I missed the first seven seasons of Idol so I’m watching it in order (through the magic of bittorrent). I just got to this episode (top 11, British Invasion) today. I was dying watching this girl. It seemed like she was either having an extreme, elated reaction to the singing or that she had some kind of bizarre crying-disorder. That reaction, though, is strangely appropriate for the British Invasion, perhaps she was channeling an old Beatles fan.

I read that Alexis is working at some of these tryouts as the on-scene reporter (like Brandon Rogers is doing here in L.A.)

Think about the finale: It featured Tatiana, Bikini Girl (that one still makes me sick), and Normund (tho I actually like Nick a lot). They are still committed to the crazies. And I think they really need an angle this year (well, *they* think they do). Instead…how about:

Normal people who can sing
No wildcard round
Top 24
No save (tho I am glad it kept Matt on the show)
THREE judges
Less judging, more singing
30 minute results shows
Mentors who really MENTOR (like Jamie Foxx and NOT Quentin Tarantino, joke)

I really wonder what is going to happen with S9 if they do not find another Adam-like superstar. You *know* TPTB desperately want another one. Will viewers watch without an Adam-like superstar (b/c Adam cannot be duplicated)? Of course, we said that after Cook, but Adam is, dare I say it, even bigger. Love you, Kris, I really do, but a lot of us watched for Adam first, you, second, Allison or Matt or Anoop, third, and so on.

Adam is so not going to any of these try-outs without several handlers…

And back to Ashley: Tears of a Clown, sung by Adam to an Ashley loses it again and again montage.
