Will we be in for another shock tonight on American Idol? Or are we so shock-weary after watching Jessica Sanchez need a save and watching Colton Dixon go home that nothing would surprise us anymore? Last night, I wrote that this week’s bottom three should consist of Elise Testone, Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips, with…
American Idol’s Top 6 might be the most evenly matched in the show’s history. And it played out that way Wednesday night, when the Idols took on the songs of queen and one song of their own choosing. Here are photos from the show. Check back tonight for a live blog during the results show….
Anyone who reads my blog on a regular basis knows I seldom agree with the Idol judges. My favorite moment of Wednesday’s show was when Joshua Ledet temporarily rendered them speechless. Thanks, Joshua. There are many times I wish I could do the same. I’m far more inclined to put stock in what Jimmy Iovine says…
When American Idol’s Top 6 take the stage tonight, we’ll be witnessing something we haven’t seen for years. For the first time since Season 3, the Top 6 will include four girls. It’s quite a turn-around for a show where males have prevailed for four straight years. You’d have to go all the way back…
Four former American Idol contestants were supposed to perform at the Strand-Capital Friday night as part of a “Celebrate Motown” show. But the show has been canceled for “unforeseen reasons” and won’t be rescheduled, according to Erin Stine, a public relations and media manager with Moxie, which works with the Strand. I wouldn’t be surprised to…
Well, everything worked out just fine on The Voice Tuesday night, didn’t it? The contestants who should have advanced, did. The judges made the right decisions with their saves. And all of a sudden, next week’s semifinals seem more enticing than they did a week ago. Tuesday’s only disappointment was the fact that Cee Lo’s…
Apparently, Tony Lucca’s rocked-out version of “Baby Hit Me One More Time” appealed to folks other than yours truly and the judges on The Voice. Tony’s single is the most downloaded on iTunes among last night’s performances from The Voice. As of 7 p.m., his take on the Britney Spears’ tune was number 22 on…
Here’s my question: If Ryan Seacrest is worth $15 million a year to host Idol, how much should Carson Daly be paid to host The Voice? I mean, Monday night, Carson had to stand in front of the camera and, with a straight face, say “that was amazing” after watching Cee Lo Green jump around the…
Sure looks like we’re in for an exciting finish to American Idol Season 11. The results of the last two weeks added an air of uncertainty seldom seen this late in the process. I mean, if Jessica Sanchez needs a save and if Colton Dixon can be eliminated, is anyone safe on this show? This…
Wow, The Voice redeemed itself tonight. OK, there were incomprehensible moments. Like when Cee Lo Green and three buddies donned 21st century golden gladiator costumes and stomped around the stage singing some new song. Once again proving The Voice still hasn’t learned the importance of keeping the focus on the contestants, not the mentors. But…
