Tonight is part one of the American Idol finale. Having Melinda Doolittle out of the way, I can ask this: Does anyone still care? I know I’ll be watching it, just because I have to put my two cents into anything related to music.
But honestly, the American public has already voted off most […]

I read this over at CNN and was kinda baffled:
She was an “amazing talent,” a young singer with a wonderful voice who wrote beautiful songs. But she was no beauty, plus flat-chested and overweight to boot.
Remembering the aspiring star, music executive Jody Gerson still feels terrible about thinking: “She’s never going to get signed, even […]

American Idol has the formula down for making you want to watch that nonsense. Recently, they sent home Melinda Doolittle, who has a gargantuan amount of talent, in lieu of two younger, less-talented kids, Blake Lewis and Jordin Sparks.
Melinda Doolittle gave it her all on last week’s show and blew them both […]

Per a post at Reuters, the sharp-tongued judge stated plainly that he cannot predict who the next American Idol will be:
“I can’t call it at this stage,” Cowell told reporters on a conference call. “For Blake, he’s a brilliant entertainer, but the negative is he’s not a fantastic singer. The advantage for Jordin is she […]

Last night, with American Idol’s ousting of Melinda Doolittle, we were left with the final two candidates, Blake Lewis and Jordin Sparks.
While I thought, at the time, that Jordin’s “I who have nothing” would’ve sunk her as a target, primarily because no one likes a repeater, but I was wrong. Melinda Doolittle […]

Well, it’s obvious that someone has to go tonight. It’s a hard choice for the people who voted and I think it will really come down to two people: Jordin Sparks, who did “I who have nothing” for the second time, and Blake Lewis, just because he isn’t as special as he thinks he […]

Blake Lewis performs “When I get you alone”:
Also, he does his rendition of Maroon 5’s, “This love”:
Not too shabby, considering it was the producer’s pick.
And, last but not least, Paula’s choice, “Roxanne” by The Police:
He did Maroon 5 decently, so we’ll see what happens.

With the top three looming over our heads tonight, one has to wonder who is going to bite the dust on tomorrow’s pre-finale.
I’m going to put out my prediction right now, before the show airs tonight at 8pm EST. Blake Lewis is doomed. I don’t say that because he’s votefortheworst’s new […]

Via Idol Chatter, we’ve come across some info on Tuesday’s show.
Each of the remaining three contestants will sing three songs. One will be of their choosing, one from the judges, and one from the producers.
Paula has picked The Police’s 80’s hit, “Roxanne” for Blake to beatbox to. Randy Jackson chose “I believe […]

The top three on American Idol, Blake Lewis, Melinda Doolittle, and Jordin Sparks all have one thing in common: they are already winners. This season of American Idol has already made household names out of Sanjaya Malakar and Lakisha Jones, imagine if they would’ve made it further. I don’t think Sanjaya could’ve made […]
