Anyone see the American Idol auditions last night from Minnesota. These auditions are hilarious. Saw a few hopefuls last night but a lot of embarrassing auditions also. Tonight they are going to be in Seattle. Simon claims Seattle had the worst auditions of all the cities. Memphis will be on next week. :clap_1:

I loved that part with the man who sang the song in honor of the woman he said he shared his life with for the past 20 years. Of course, I cried! We watch American Idol as a family every season. Although I do think the try-outs are getting meaner and I don't like to support that when it's so mean at times. But we watch it anyway...

So now the final 24 are chosen. I think of the last two girls and guys they kept the wrong ones. I like the girl they chose but she just doesn't have the git up and go for AI. And Sundance.....I don't think so.

One word....Nair.Yea, he is a sweet guy but did not do well in Hollywood. He will probably change his looks now.

I seem to remember they mentioned something about the Beatles knocking him out of the #1 song so it may have been the 60's. In fact, I think I remember the song. I'm pretty old.No, you're not. I've heard that song dozens of times. The lyrics are lame, but so were the early Beatles stuff. Lame-ooh but catchy and fun.

Bob, you're too kind. I sorta like catchy and funn--loved I Wanna Hold Your Hand...I can't help it.

The last female singer cut on Idol should have made it. Rip off! Last male singer as well. Sundance was fortunate, because that other guy sitting next to him had talent.

Totally agree. I thought she could sing! I'm not sure theres one person that I'm crazy about. I guess I'll wait to choose a favorite out of the top 12.

Like I said!!!Sorry, I Joe "Xerox" Bidened you. That was obvious, the show isn't all about singing talent sometimes. Sundance's father was too talented to not give jr. a shot.

That's what I thought when I watched Roy. He was pretty cool. AND.... I like the little guy, I think Chris is his name. Kind of a timberlake look alike.

Not good with remembering everyone's names, but was very disappointed to see Bailey Brown leave. I thought she had all the makings of a STAR! It did seem like they made some choices that just weren't right. I know we only get to see what they want us to. I agree with Steele Mama, the last girl had a great voice, better than I thought the girl with the long red hair, they chose to keep earlier. The girl with the red hair reminded me of Lucille Ball for some reason. I did like the other girl who was with her at the end, too. Why did they make them do 2 at a time, when the others had their verdict alone. I really thought the last 4 were all good. Sorry that the other guy chose to flip off the cameras, not a good parting gesture! I know Sundance didn't have as great a week, but he must have shown the judges something we didn't see.
I loved the single mom, she has great showmanship and I like the back up singer who hasn't any confidence. My guy picks right now are the new dad and the young guy from India.

Agree with you on Bailey Brown, but obviously she needs to mature. It was amazing that she couldn't learn a few lines of lyrics even though she had more than 12 hours to do so.
I predict that either a) whoever the next Lou Perlman is will sign her to a record deal next week, she'll have a No. 1 album by next year, and she'll be in rehab by age 20 or b) she'll come back to AI next year or the year after that and win the whole thing.

My 7 year old's pick: SUNDANCE HEAD! He fell asleep right when the last 2 guys were on, couldn't raise him to hear Sundance gets to stay and his first words out of bed this morning: Did Sundance make it?

Oh, yeah, I forgot how much I liked him! I love the tone of his voice. I also like the JT look alike. He sounds like him too.

Hmm, could it be Leslie?
The other girl I kinda liked was Amy. She had dark blonde hair and I thought...as soon as it's makeover time she's getting major highlights or they'll make her brunette but my moneys on blonde. And Leslie--she has great hair already.Beach Fanatic
Sorry Sundance Head was not that great tonight! Sinjay chose the wrong song. But, give it up for the new dad Phil Stacey! His voice is so pure, just beautiful! My number 2 pick is Chris Sligh. Loved his performance, followed closely by Pedro!
I'm very sure Paula was UI, her lips couldn't even close!
Ryan and Simon bout to throw down! :boxing: Very entertaining night.

Loved Blake tonight, liked Chris Richardson, Chris Sligh and Phil. Some of the guys were pretty terrible.
