American Idol - Wednesday and Thursday

Tuesday night the final group of 12 contestants in the top 36 performed. I was confident in my picks:

Lil Rounds
Ju'not Joyner
Felecia Barton

I thought that there was a very outside chance for Scott MacIntyre.

I was wrong! Neither Ju'not nor Felecia were selected. I am VERY disappointed about these two singers.

So, the American Public voted Lil Rounds, Jorge Nunez and Scott MacIntyre into the 7th, 8th and 9th spots.

Thursday Night Tonight, 8 Wild Card performances and selection.

The wild card selections (many surprising to me) are: Jesse Langseth, Matt Giraud, Megan Joy Corkrey, Von Smith, Jasmine Murray, Ricky Braddy, Tatianna Del Toro (gag me) and Anoop Desai.

After listening to them sing I chose Megan, Jasmine and Ricky. Tatianna made me sick again. She sang, for the 3rd time, "Saving All My Love for You" THE THIRD TIME! To me, that is a cardinal sin on American Idol.


In a surprise ending, the judges selected 4 people to make what is now a Top 13 !!

The remaining spots were awarded to:

Jasmine Murray
Megan Joy Corkrey (Yay Megan!!! I like her)
Matt Giraud

The 4th person put through as the 13th contestant is Anoop Desai. I could care less about him.

One final thought about Tatianna and her drama queen ways. Paula Abdul was sickening in the way that she indulged Tatianna by consoling her and otherwise coddling her. It seems to me that Tatianna is no more crushed by her elimination that the other 23 contestants are. GET OVER YOURSELF TATIANNA!

I feel all better now. LOL.

See you next week, for the first performances by the Top 13 !!!
