AMERICAN IDOL NIGHT 19: TOP 16 ELIMINATION!!
The time has come for eliminations again. After tonight, we'll know who this year's Top 12 contestants are. A new phase will begin, and the competition will get harder to win, harder to judge, and harder to find really snide remarks to make about it. But first, we've got to cut four semi-finalists. On with the show!
For the third night in a row, Ryan wears a tie.
Next week, we'll have a bigger performance arena, more studio audience, a bigger band, and a smaller group of contestants. Should be good. 46 million votes came in for the contestants this week! If only we could get this many voters to a presidential election!
There's a brief recap of the best and worst of last night, so go read my previous posts if you want to know what happened with all that.
Now it's time for last year's runner-up Bo Bice. Ah, the memories. He still looks the same. Bo's grown up, gotten a career, and he's a dad. And I think he's bought some conditioner too. Bo's gonna sing 'The Real Thing,' which is his latest single from what I consider to be a somewhat lackluster debut album. Bo's got so much talent, but he's better as a raw southern rock singer. I do love seeing his mic stand maneuvering yet again. Seriously, if anyone ever declares war, I want Bo on the front lines kicking butt with his mic stand. Nobody this year has his stage presence. His performance doesn't sound very polished tonight, which should tell me how much his album is over-produced. He's not hitting any notes at all tonight, though, and talk about shouting the lyrics! Still, Bo's a rock'n'roller, and that's what he's doing tonight, and it's good to see him again.
After the break, it's time to lose a few performers...
