On Wednesday, the day after the top 16 were revealed on The X Factor, the show released portraits of most of the singers and groups headed to the live shows. For some reason, the show didn’t provide photos of the Lylas. I’ll add them if the show rectifies that situation. Meanwhile, check out some of…
Who’s the contestant to beat on Season 3 of The Voice? Some of the survivors from Team Blake and Team Adam were posed that question last week, asked to name contestants from the opposing teams whom they see as among of their toughest competitors. And unlike contestants on American Idol, this group was willing to…
When last we left The X Factor, we had learned the identity of 10 of the 16 singers advancing to the live shows. Then the rain stopped in St. Louis, the Cardinals resumed their game with the Giants and The X Factor disappeared from our TV screens. Which brings us to tonight, when The X…
Only three battles remain on The Voice. And only one steal remains; it’s in the hands of Christina Aguilera. What comes next on The Voice? Glad you asked, because next Monday and Tuesday we’ll move on to new “knockout” rounds. During those, remaining singers on each team will be paired off again. Except this time,…
During a conference call interview last week, Laura Vivas was asked whether she thought her chances of doing well on The Voice might be diminished because she’d gotten so little airtime on the show. After seeing most of her blind audition and most of her battle round victory wind up on the cutting-room floor, the…
By my count, there are just nine battle matchups left before we move on to the next phase of The Voice. Yet we’ve still to hear from some of the brightest stars of the blind auditions. That would include Adrianna Louise, Cassadee Pope and Nicole Nelson, all of whom enticed every judge to turn around…
She’s just 22, but Cassadee Pope has been playing music full-time for years. The West Palm Beach, Fla., native spent much of that time as front woman for the band “Hey, Monday.”
Simon Cowell must have been seething after what happened to his drama-filled judges’ mansion results show last Wednesday night. He’s likely in a much better mood today. FOX just sent out a press release that The X Factor has been renewed for a third season. “Yippee,” would be my rather unenthusiastic response. But I suppose…
The Voice aired two more battle rounds, completed with more steals, a couple of tough-to-call matches and some baffling coaches’ decisions. If you had trouble keeping track, Dez Duron, Sam James, Julio Ceasar Castillo, David Nicholas, Suzanna Choffel, Sylvia Yacoub, Michelle Brooks-Thompson, Laura Vivas, Mycle Wastman, MacKenzie Bourg, Liz Davis and Kayla Nevarez won their…
You might have caught the commercial during a recent episode of The X Factor. Season 1 winner Melanie Amaro has not one, but two singles out. The first — “Don’t Fail Me Now” — was actually released a few weeks ago. And its enjoying some success on the dance chart, moving up from 25 to…
