All these "kids" are so sweet! Jordin is winning it all. Take it to the bank and make me a scarf!
I know you are right, as Ryan called it 4 weeks ago. Randy was on Conan last Friday, told everyone Lakisha was going home then. There is a rumor that travel arrangements had already been made for Lakisha, prior to the show.
I am just kind of sad how it all works. The article from Tony Bennett, telling Simon that he didn't agree with how cruel he was to the kids and that he should open clubs to develop the talent and get exposure without the extreme cruelty and Simon's response? I'm too busy making money! I don't believe Tony had the flu that caused him not to sing. I believe he is a genuine, musical genius and the fact that his opinions were in opposite directions from Simon's, he felt he had to respectfully bow out.
That said, I'm still going to see the tour and hear them in person. I hope they all do well, which I believe they will. Some words you just can't take back, though!
