American Idol - WHAT IS GOING ON!?!?

Did anyone see last night's (4/26) episode? I have almost given up on this show, or maybe on America (if America really does the voting). I couldn't believe the soundwaves coming out of my TV speakers.

First it was Bo Bice singing Gavin Degraw's "I don't want to be" I think Gavin Degraw deserves a serious apology for the butchering of his song by Bo on last night's American Idol. It was out of key and off note and pitching like a roller coaster. That was absolutely horrible. I bet half of the showerers in America can sing better than that. Why is he still on the show? Is he really a potential American Idol? I think not. Perhaps he is still on because the judges like him so much. Why do they keep praising him? He is awful but even Simon said he was good! Simon has totally changed since last season. I think one judge even said it was his best performance! Why do they like Bo so much but not Anthony or Vonzell? Anthony is clearly better than Bo. And Vonzell's nearly-stellar performance they said was not her best!?!?

And then did you see Constantine's butchering of Nickelback's "How you remind me" At least the judges admitted it was bad but it wasn't just bad it was really bad. He was running and jumping and screaming all over the place not to mention his voice was absolutely terrible And he has such an evil glare into the camera every time they do a head shot of him. This is not a man I want to even see on my television (his image might break it) much less call him my American Idol.

The bottom line is how can you pick someone who ruins a good American song and call them an American Idol. Is an American Idol someone who ruins good American songs? I would sure hope not.

America must be really different from what I think it is, or this show is rigged.

So everyone, please vote for someone else so we can get these two freaks off our quality television program.



About the judges. I can tell Randy already likes who he likes and a performance doesn't change much for him. His mind is made up. Paula says everybody is good, that is so anoying. Simon is trying to be all nice because too many people hated him after previous seasons but I wish he would go back to his own ways. Finally, even though Ryan Seacrest ca't sing AT ALL I bet he would make a better judge than any of the 3 up there (because he plays music on KIIS every morning and he know's what good singing sounds like).
