Of course you do not watch it, but lets say you did??!! Wink

Who will be voted off this week.

Unfortunately I will say the Kimberly Locke will be going leaving Rueben and Clay for the finals, like them all at this point, so happy Josh finally got the boot.

Never seen it. Wink

Actually, I haven't watched it much, just a couple Wednesday editions and last Tuesday, but, I have to agree, Kimberly needs to go and Josh I think was getting pity votes, I just don't see why he stuck around so long. Clay and Ruben have great stage presence and incredible voices....its good to see this season is more about actual vocal talent, not just looks.

GO RUBEN!!!!

If America is smart at all, they will pick Ruben. Every song Clay sings sounds exactly the same. He's too Rick Astley, if you ask me.

I can't get enough of it! I do think Ruben is adorable but I'd be happy with any 3 of them winning. How come none of them forget the words to the songs. If it were me up there I would be making up words.

BTW: 24 is on tonight too! only 2 episodes left.

See, I think every song Ruben sings sounds exactly the same. Does anyone read the recaps on Television Without Pity? (www.televisionwithoutpity.com) They say that he gets all Luther Vandross-y, and I have to agree. Obviously, that's not meant as a compliment. Smile

Love Clay. So funny.

Kimberly, sadly, will be gone tomorrow. Of course, I said that about Josh a couple of weeks ago, and Carmen since like day 1 of the show, but how wrong I was. Oh, how wrong.

I was telling Pebbs I thought he was very Rex Smith. He is destined for Broadway and probably Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

Kimberly the boot this week.

Another thing about Clay. In one of the early shows he came out and I made the rude comment that he looked like a mouse or rat (mostly because of his ears sticking out and spikey hair).
He then proceeded to launch into Somewhere Out There
from An American Tail where the main character is Fivel (a mouse)

And of course if you were a fan??!!! Wink

Today Oprah is on the set of American Idol, I think my computer might need to take a walk out to the TV set at 4 pm to enjoy this.

Oh the little vices that make life enjoyable!!!

No, not you sista friend. Rick Astley is a black man trapped in a white man's body. But I dig his tunes, yes I do.

I'd vote off Paula Abdul. She's a poor role model with that anorexic look she's got going. I didn't watch the last one where the chick won, but wasn't Miss Abdul about 30 lbs. heavier?
