posh281

Has it really been seven months since we crowned Kris Allen the king of American Idol? It may not seem like it, since we’ve been so thoroughly entertained by Adam Lambert who has superseded Allen as the one we love to watch in that time. Will any of this season’s crop of contestants manage to [...]

Idol: America Turns A Blind Eye to Scott (Too Soon?)

There were only about eight minutes of actual content in last night’s results show of American Idol, and of that content, none of it was remarkable. Unless you count the celebrity sightings of Mario Lopez and the mayor of Kalamazoo, Michigan. We knew that Scott MacIntyre would probably be sent to the bottom three, but [...]

Did Lambert’s ‘Mad World’ Deserve Standing O?

The American Idol theme last night was “Songs from the Year You Were Born” and we can think of about ten thousand songs we would have preferred to hear instead of the dreck that was sung last night.

Idol Recap: Megan Is Free As A Bird

During the results shows, we always feel a little bad for the contestants since their flaws are re-pointed out for the purpose of bringing everyone up to speed, and then we feel bad for being critical too.

Idol Recap: Hair More Entertaining Than The Music

Idol Recap: America, What’s Your Deal?

Sometimes we just don’t get people’s taste. Right now, we are questioning how America could put Matt Giraud in the bottom two [...]

Idol Recap: Lambert Flops On Country Night

Not even going to use an opening paragraph to preface this post. Adam Lambert. Oh my God. Insane. So wrong. Also, what were some of these kids wearing? But mostly, Adam Lambert. No. Words. Here are our top five moments. 5. Anoop Dogg Vs. Tender Dogg Anoop Desai professed (not all that shockingly) that country [...]

American Idol Staffer Says Final Four Are Rigged

The New York Daily News reports that an American Idol staffer is telling people that the show’s creators have already chosen this season’s top four—allegedly Danny Gokey, Alexis Grace, Adam Lambert and Lil Rounds—despite the fact that there are still eleven contestants that, well, America gets to choose from. Those ARE the people…Adam Lambert and [...]

Idol Recap: Jasmine Murray, Jorge Nunez Sent Packing

Turns out America doesn’t give a crap about you no matter how uplifting your English as a Second Language backstory is or how many gorgeous sisters you have back in Mississippi. The two finalists sent home last night on American Idol‘s first finals results show were Jorge Núñez and Jasmine Murray who proved they just [...]
