Oh, so many cute boys.
Oh, so many cute boys with voices and faces like angels.
Oh, so many cute boys with voices and faces like angels who totally STANK UP MY TIVO last night!
What happened?
Pretty boys, why do you not sing pretty for me? Pretty boys with pretty faces, why do you torture me so?
You know who sounded good? Anwar. The old guy with all the dreads. And Scott, while not perfect, was better than 90% of the rest. Scott. The one with Down's. Don't get me wrong. I like these two. I like them a lot. But...sigh...

Constantine sucked. I LOVE CONSTANTINE. And I frankly don't care if he sucked. He's my Rocker Babe, my Sleepy Church Boy of 2005 (for those new to the blog, see 2004). Constantine could howl at the moon and still, I would vote for him. Love me some Constantine with his big name and his long hair and metal band left behind and his sweet pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty...
OKAY, I'm pulling it together.
You know who else sucked? Travis. And David. And Nikko. And Jared. And Joseph. And Judd. And Mario. Pretty boys every one. Pretty boys who did not sing pretty.
And then there's Anthony Freakin' Fedorov. I tried to rise above. Tried not to hate Fedorov on account of the fact that a) it's wrong to hate and b) it's wrong to hate people with tracheotomies. But I can't do it. I'm a low evil person. Fedorov gets on my nerves with his bad blond haircut and his glasses and his annoying holier than thou "I am a miracle of modern science" Clay Aiken-wannabe act. So they said you would never speak? SO WHAT? You're speaking. Get over it already.
The only boy I haven't mentioned thus far is Bo. Bo Bice. Here's hoping he changes his name if he wins. Try saying it three times quickly out loud -- can't do it. Anyway, Bo. Ah, Bo. I don't know what my deal is this year with the rockers but I also have tingly AI feelings for Bo. With his greasy hair and his weak chin and his inability to move to the beat, Bo is everything a girl could want in an AI contestant. He's the AI dream. Why? He can sing. And that's all. He looks terrible. But inside there is a cute boy waiting to be unvelied. Yes, there's so much room for fashion improvement. For haircuts and makeovers. For nicer shoes. For dance lessons. Bo is a virtual Pygmalion waiting to happen. And if there is one thing AI likes, it's a makeover. It's very American. Very Idol.
Bo and Constantine. Constantine and Bo. And Anwar. And Scott. They were worth my hour of time. The rest of those boys need to be voted off. And quickly.

I don't know you, but you sound exactly like me! I also am strangely in love with Constantine, despite his shortcomings and that awful chin of his. The boy just has some sort of sexy charisma that I cannot explain. I also thought Bo was fantastic, but I thought the next two strongest were definitely Nikko and Mario. They were both excellent and I think have very good chances of making it far.
Travis was the biggest disappointment to me, just based on what I had seen previously from him. He looked scared. And I actually have to disagree with you about Anwar. Good voice, yes, but WAY too polite and gentle, and what was with "bless your heart Paula"? I like my men with a bit of edge, and I think he is lacking in that department.
Anyway, keep up the good work. I look forward to reading this after each show!
Geneva- I don't know what made you think that Anwar has any "edge" to begin with. He's a music teacher at an elementary school, remember? He's as edgy as Clay Aiken.
Now Constantine on the other hand...bad song choice last night, but RAWR.
Toni - Nothing made me think Anwar had any edge, I'm just saying I think that is the area that he is lacking. Wasn't a fan of Clay either. It's about time we get some MEN on this show. Not that he doesn't seem like a nice guy, he just seems....too nice. Almost a bit boring. But his voice is amazing, and he chose a great and unexpected song to sing, so that was nice. It will be great to see what happens on Wednesday!
