Sorry...

I know it's been a while since we've posted.

Don't get us wrong. We love to post. It's just that this year's AI is so...

...so...

...LAME.

Yes. I said it. Lame.

Last week, I couldn't even be bothered, I was so bored. I just couldn't find anything to write about. This week...well, at least Constantine is turning out to be something special.

I love him.

No. Wait. Let me clarify.

I....LOVE...HIM!!!!

Loves me some Connie. Connie with the long hair. Connie with the no rocker street cred and the Partridge family songs. Connie is hot. Connie is now. Connie is boy band without the other boys. He's N Sync without the Sync. He's so bland that he feels new.

Everyone else?

Well, Vonzell is exciting. She's cute. She's bubbly. She's got a great voice. But I hate the weave. Nothing worse than a shiny weave on a nice person.

That Carrie? She's...well, Carrie. And I'm talking bucket of pig's blood on the head Carrie. There is something decidedly evil about her. Decidedly creepy. A reader described her as very JonBenet. And she is. All JonBenet, all the time. Can't stand her. Wish she'd leave.

I was angry that Nikko was ejected. But I got it. He's too R&B for the AI crowd. And he didn't know how to pretend he wasn't the way Fantasia did. Plus, Fantasia had a good story. Single mama, poor, from the South. Nikko aka Osbourne was the son of a famous ball player. There wasn't a single person watching who felt he "needed" to win the way we all felt Fantasia did. I mean, Fantasia can now buy her baby diapers and milk. What's Nikko gonna do with the money? Ummm...put it on top of his other pile of money?

Nadia? Dude, the minute she turned her head into a rooster? She was OUT. OUT. She had no freakin' shot. NONE.

Rooster=NO WAY YOU WILL BE THE AMERICAN IDOL!

As for the rest of 'em? Anwar? Inconsistent. Fedorov? Satan. Bo? Well, Bo has a chance. If he can get his act together. Scott? Oh, please. Love Down's Syndrome boy but he can NOT sing!

Okay, that's all I have to say. I promise to write next week. I promise. Come on back and read....

This is Shonda, reporting live from my sofa...

Oh yeah, PS: Did anyone see Hall and Oates in the audience? Are they a million jillion years old or WHAT?! What happened to the dudes who did Private Eyes? My sister and I have a whole dance we made up to that song. And now they are two geriatric guys sitting in the audience of American Idol wearing Depends diapers?!

Ooh, I feel old...

PTL! Life is complete again.

Everything you say about Connie is the truth. THAT's why I hate him. He is my sworn enemy.

And I'm rooting for Vonzell. I want her to win now. Maybe have her and Bo in the top 2.

I'm thrilled you're back!! This has even prompted me to add my first comment to your blog.

I actually liked no-neck, and I really liked Nikko, and was shocked when he left. I'm not a huge fan of R&B, which is probably because I'm a middle aged white guy, but I love classic motown. I liked how Nikko could put an R&B spin on any song. Classic stage tune? Add him some motown. I don't think he'd have won, but he's clearly better than the boring antics of Anthony, Anwar, and even Constantine.

And speaking of Constantine. I can't take the hype. For christ's sake, the man sane a partridge family song! Plus, he should have had some serious orthodontia when he was little. I think he sucks, and I got no use for him. He has stage presence, I suppose, but his singing sucks.

I like Bo. Bo rocks. Bo's cool. Bo's a nice guy who cares about his mama. I'd be happy to sit around and drink beer with Bo. I'd be bored to sit around with Constantine or Anwar and drink beer, and I'd be scared to sit around with Scott and drink beer.

Anyway, Scott, Anthony, and Anwar will go down next, and then this gets hard to sort.

Please don't ever stay away so long again. Ever. You got folks up in here testifying due to your return. Are those tamborines I hear? Don't go.

Hall & Oates have aged really badly. How about all the Botox?

Do you think they're tired of people asking when the Miami Vice reunion show is going to be on?

Oh girls - we're SO glad you're back. All is well with the world again. And - hey who is this Handsome Captain? Can I have a beer with him and Bo? I also love the Bo - but gosh, maybe he should be a teeeeeny bit less nonchalant about whether he wins or not. Scott definately a scary guy - I envision more anger-management issues coming with that dude. I find it weird though. Anwar must stay - if only because of his rendition of It's a Wonderful World - I could watch that one many times. Also he's so damn nice to look at - please don't let him be gay. Scary Carrie? I think she's cute and a great vocalist - just not much stage presence. Perhaps she could be taught to move and dance and have facial expressions. Constantine can stay - although he irk'd me at first, I've decided that he amuses me. Vonzell is to cute and can belt a song but I don't think I'd buy her record.

I'M SOOOOO GLAD U CAME BACK!!!! AND IT'S ABOUT TIME U FELL IN LOVE WITH CONSTANTINE!!! HE'S HOT!

Soooo glad you're back. Even when the show is lame we can count on you to liven it up. But I'd rather watch Bo any day instead of Constantine with his "look at me pout into the camera" as he stares deep -into the camera. Yeesh! AI is cheesy enough don't you think. I don't think Simon was being complimentary when he said he was astonishing. And really -is Paula stoned, drunk or both. Does any one else think she's been gushier (if that's a word)than usual?

I PEED MY PANTS WHEN I SAW THE NEW BLOG!!!!

Okay but I do have to disagree with most of you and saddly to say Shonda too, don't get me wrong I love YOU SHONDA!!!!!

Constatine????? Are you All for real???? He's Scarey AS HELL, I'm a grown woman (a whole 25 years old, shut up that's grown) and He gives me the willies, and I don't mean the good type of willies either, there's something about him that just ain't clicking with me.

Baby V, she's got some vocals on her man!!! I didn't know she could sing like that, that one night when she sang W.H. song oh boy she sang it better than miss W.H. herself!!!!

Carrie....granted her musical theme night was NOT HER best song choice so far, it was boring but yet she did Sing that song, and this last performance, i liked the rocked out Carrie, she's trying to show that she can be versitile!! I'm a big CARRIE FAN, that girl really sings her songs, you can feel her depth as she sings. (okay it maybe just me), See I went college with Carrie (didn't know her as in we were pals or anything) that girl is so nice and sweet!!! She can never sayh anything bad about anyone!!

AS FOR SCOTT, I thought he was going home 2 weeks ago, HE NEEDS TO GO HOME. I used to like scott, but Not anymore, enough is enough!!! Go back home bobbie koth!!!

Bo...well I maybe the only here I LOVE BO, HE'S HOT HOT HOT HOT!!!!! Enough said on that.

Anwar, go home, your day is done, go away.

and for the Demon's Spawn himself, next week baby hear my words YOUR BUTT HIS GOING BACK HOME!!!!


AGAIN I'M SO GLAD THAT YOU ARE BAAACCKKK. I'M GONNA GO CHANGE MY PEE SOAKED PANTS NOW!!!!

Oh Sandi, Oh Shoda, Thank the LORD you have returned to us. Halleluja - (I don't think I spelled that right) - anyway we're sure as hell glad to see some blogging from you girls.

Life was grey when you were gone. Now it has color. Many colors. OK, so I've had a glass of wine or two. Two and a half.

Do you think our lives are pathetic if AI is what put's some pizazz into our days?

I'm intrigued by "Handsome Captain". I'm having pirate-romance book fantasies. Hope he's not bald and paunchy in reality.
