American Idol 3

I agree ..... It's about to get verrry interesting

I love this show!

My 2 sons (9 and 5) continually imitate the one guy that sang "She bang" I don't even know the song (or maybe I would if it were sung properly But.. it has actually contributed to many moments of laughter at home. (I'm thankful they arn't imitating the one who sang "like a Virgin" last season!)

I don't think that obnoxious girl should have made it through. She actually should have been asked to leave right then and there. But maybe they have something planned. I wouldn't mind Simon putting her in her place. As much as he can be harsh, he certainly didn't deserve that. (I think she may have already learned her lesson though.... hopefully! )

I can't believe they let Alan through either. That guy needs to be knocked down a notch or two. If his interest is to meet women... head on over to the corner bar. As much as this show is entertaining, I don't think everyone's main goal is to see if they can hook up with someone. Hopefully he'll get that message loud and clear (in between his strip shows)

Can't wait for the next show!

OMG that guy who sang "she Bang" cracked me up! He was hilarious!

That cracked me up as well, I loved that guy, he was soooo funny. He could be the next american idol since he is so entertaining!!!

I was doubled over laughing so hard when he told them he had never had singing lessons in his life and Simon replied "No? Really??" LOL I still see him dancing away 'a la John Travolta'.

Tonights show was quite entertaining. I can't believe how many forgot the words. And the songs were so easy! But, I guess if I was on stage, it could possibly happen. Singing along in my living-room is quite different.

I'm kind of disappointed that scooter girl is gone. I found her quite good. A little quirky but good.

Buh bye Alan!!! Thank God!

I really liked the older dark fella (can't remember his name now) The one who Randy told looked much younger wearing the toque. He was really good!!!

*gah* I have to pay more attention to the names a bit better next week.

My sons are routing for Matt so far.<--- see I remember one name!

Personally, I like the blonde one that sang with the first trio. The only good trio performance of the night actually.

Not quite sure what's going to happen to the loner girl who refuses to dance. Did she not watch last years show? Group performances are part of it and she will have no choice but to dance. She just about died right on the spot when she was hugged by 2 other girls when it was announced that their group was staying. I think she's going to have a very difficult time.

That's it for now. I'm going to see if I can find a site that will provide me with the contestants names.

THANK YOU!!! I am up to date now

NZ Idol has started over here and I just love it, not alot of great singers have sung yet(still auditions..) but the presenter Dominic Bowden is a bit of a babe, don't you agree??

I don't have a fav yet, although I do have some I dislike already! That bikini model needs to GO! She is just pretty, nothing else. And that guy with the blonde hair has a HUGE ego problem!
I will be excited to see who is in final batch!!!

Last year I liked clay right from the start, I don't think I'm going to have another person I like right away thing year. Although I think that scooter girl is awful funny and has a pretty okay voice.

I know what you mean. I don't really like her. She doesn't really have a good "American Idol" personality. She is definitely too much of a loner. I don't think she will make it that much farther.

I didn't know for sure that Alan was gone or not. I was having a little trouble being able to tell which room everyone was in. I'm glad to hear that he is gone now. What about that girl that had such a bad attitude(can't remember her name - the one that insulted Simon and made Paula angry)? Is she gone yet or not?

Was finally able to watch tonight's show. No one has really stood out to me, except for Scooter Girl, who isn't there anymore. I thought she had a pretty good voice.

Anyway, here's the site: www.idolonfox.com and the contestant's page is: http://idolonfox.com/contestants/index.htm Of course it says "Check back on February 4th for Contestant Information." Ummmm...it IS Februrary 4!!

So who caught tonight's show?

I thought that Diana and Katie were the best singers, but I think Matthew will get at least one of the spots. He is a cutie, and the song fit him.

I did ..... I like that one african american girl. I forgot her name. She sounded a little like Macy Grey.

Fantasia. She was definitely a performer. I was surprised at what Simon said - that she was the only one who didn't need this competition to be a star.

Yep, that's her name, thanks .... I looove her singing!! Yeah, that really shocked me when Simon told her that. I also liked the 16 year old girl too. she also was a good singer.

My favorites were the first and the last. The rest were good, but boring-something I would expect on a high-end cruise line. And I agree with Simon, most were singing "safe" songs and it was a bit boring.

Who won last night? I was homee but I forgot to watch it! I can't believe I did that, I look forward to this all week and I just forgot! ACK!!!

Did the 16 yeear old get to go thru? How about Fantasia? Please tell

Yes...... and Yes

Is anyone else finding that Simon seems to have a softer edge to him this season? I've actually seen him blush a few times and found him quite cute. But then again.... I'm on cold meds right now and perhaps after they wear off I'll think differently. I just find something has changed.

I'm loving the show.

Oh good! I am glad both of those girls got thru. My only hesitation is that Simon said Fantasia ia so good that she can get a recording contract on her own. She might run the contest and make it not as competetive. I hope there are some people who can give her a run for here money

I was wondering how far you were with American Idol in the US, and after reading this thread, we seem to be on the same week! We have both shows on Fridays, when do you have the shows over there?
I have never followed American Idol before. I saw the final show in the last season, scrambled, but I got the sound , and then they did the first Icelandic Idol, and I got hooked! That just finished, so this comes right along. We bought one month of the tv station that shows American Idol, so now I can see it unscrambled, but since I´m hooked, I´m sure I´ll be watching it scrambled in the future

In this last show I REALLLY like Matthew. I think he is cute, with a happy personality and the song was right for him.
I was really disapointed that he didnt get to go further.
They talk about 11 finalists, in our Idol, there were 9 finalists, 8 from the 4 eps of the 8 (32), and then 1 extra show where the judges choose 8 from the 32 and 1 of those got to the finals.
I was just wondering where the 3 extra people got to the finals in your show???

Next up is the second round of 8 out of the 32 that were chosen. It comes on Tuesday and Wednesday every week - and sometimes they have a special on Monday. There are actually going to be 12 finalists (not 11). There used to be 10, but they added two more to it last season. I can't remember how those extra ones are chosen though.
