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:

Which ones were Blake and Jared . I missed the first 3 singers, walked in when Sundance was singing.
Blakes the beatboxer and Jared sang the Brian Mcknight song tonight.

Jared needs to do something about those eyebrows.

Loved Blake tonight, liked Chris Richardson, Chris Sligh and Phil. Some of the guys were pretty terrible.I was wondering if the top 12 guys last year sounded as bad on the first show. I will see if I can listen to a replay.................because I really don't need to work.......right.

I watched but didn't really love anyone. I felt like Simon, must need to up my meds. I do however LOVE your new tar Steele Mama. Those grandsons are very cute.

I think my jaw is still hanging open! Lakisha was incredible.:clap_1: Melinda was great too! And I didn't think I liked the girls that much. Wow, they're much better than the guys. Antonella and Alaina were
, wonder if they'll go home.

Antonella and Alaina wereThey are my top 2 - Lakisha, closely followed by Melinda! I liked Gina too. My kids also liked Stephanie. I missed her performance, only saw the recap, so I can't say. Lakisha is an incredible singer - I would love to hear her sing Gospel. Her background said she sang in the Mount Zion Baptist Church. Wouldn't you love to go to her church and hear her sing praises!, wonder if they'll go home.

I love Melinda's personality, she's like this bubbling spring! I even liked Haley's ballad, thought if she sang a duet with Phil Stacey, it would be a hit!

I agree with the 2 of you and I also thought Sabrina was great! This might the best year so far for the women, imo. :clap_1:

:clap_1: for Lakisha. Can't help but wish her everything great in life. She was by far the best singer/performer and seems to sincerely deserve this break (I guess a lot of them do). There were about 3 other women that we're rooting for (can't remember their names) and the new dad for the men. We so enjoy watching AI as a family.

The girls did great. Even the weaker girls seemed better than the guys. Amazing talent. I have heard some wonderful music in chuch, but nothing like that. Way to go girls!!!

My first experience with the voting part and being voted off by the fans!
Am I the only one who is shocked? Sanjaya? Sundance Head? Even though I loved both of these guys early on, they just didn't have it the last 2 times. Nicole, I also thought had her swan song tonight. I think she showed them they made a mistake!
WOW!

I am so mad. Antonela and Alaina should have gone home. I thought Rudy was good! Both girls that left really could sing so I'm sad to see them go. I wanted to hear more from them.
Paul Kim I can see but Rudy? No. I forgot how frustrating this can be. it does get to be more of a popularity contest than a singing contest. Remember John Stevens from a couple of years ago? My daughter Sam really liked Sanjaya so I guess alot of other people did to. He was one of the terrible ones. Oh well, I didn't vote so I guess I shouldn't complain too much.

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.
Love your tar. Son is adorable and your dog is one of my favs. Back to AI.

I voted a lot but did not vote for Amy or Nicole. They aren't the strongest but I do like them. They would probably not make the top 12. Neither will Sanjaya or Sundance. I really think they will go within the next two weeks. I sure hope so!!! My top 12:
Lakisha
Melinda
Sabrina
Jordan
Stephanie
Haley
Chris Sligh
Chris Richardson
Blake
Brandon

Thanks! I couldn't ge it in focus when I reduced it. I still haven't figured out the right way to resize the photos. My son had just finished Willy Wonka and was in the finals for the most books read in his class and was very proud to finish this one at the last second. It earned him a pizza from his teacher! It says:
"I read the whole thing". Flo, the weimeraner, is a camera hog!

My favs too. Chris Robinson rocked it tonight followed by Blake followed by Chris Sligh. I just voted a few times for each.
Beach Fanatic
After watching the whole thing, my votes are Chris (most danceable too), Pedro, Sundance, Jared, Chris S. and Phil. I'm not sure where I put Blake - like him, but for tone my overall favorites are still Phil, followed by Chris. Sundance redeemed himself - I wish he would break out with a real rockin blues song!

I voted a few times for everyone except Sanjayayayaya, Brandon and AJ.

I liked both of the Chris'. The guys did much better this week. Lots of funn.
