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:

me too, I voted for Gina b/c I don't think they other girls have a chance of getting voted out. And I would hate it if she left and I didn't vote.

Lakisha and Melinda gave me chills they were so good.
Haley is generic and that song? Antonella is horrible; I dislike her more every week.

Kelly Clarkson used to give me chills too. I agree about Haley...boring. Antonella ruined one of my favorite songs.

I can go out and chop the wood before the lard even melts in the pan...
That woman can sing. She's not trying out to be SuperStar -- She already is one, just undiscovered.

I do think Sanjaya is still VERY popular. I just think he has weak vocals, but he has potential for sure. In some ways, he's much more memorable than any of the others. He has a beautiful smile & a sweet personality. He could easily be molded into a star. My bet is still on him, but not necessarily my choice.
The American Idol shouldn't have "potential." He/she should already be a star in need of exposure...like Lakisha and Melinda, IMO.
But that's the way it is already in America: talent is not a prerequisite for stardom (see Paris Hilton). It's shameful.

Just as I was about to make an "I heart Lakisha" shirt, Melinda sang that song...oh my holy vocals!
I guess this is why I never watched AI before...soooo addictive.

Yes, she's so much more than a "pretty face."

She is just a joy to watch! Like Paula said, I can't wait to see what she does every week. :clap_1:
Antonella, meanwhile, is out of her league ... but does she ever look like a young Cindy Crawford! Sadly, I think she will stay on another week. At least she sings better than Cindy acted.

Then Tyra should have snagged her for America's Next Top Model!

Ditto, Ditto, and Ditto....Melinda, Oh my goodness, she tore me up. Lakisha did as well, but man Melinda is so good. She seems so down to earth. She is my pick to win it all!!!!

Well, Sanjaya is still there and Sundance is gone like a freight train.

I was just sure Sanjaya would go along with Haley. Can't believe Sabrina went and she stayed...

And they sent the wrong girl home, too. I don't get it. The only thing I can figure out about Sanjaya is that he's one of those cute little mascots that everyone fusses over. He has a nice voice, and he's engaging, yes, but he's far too young and can't hold a candle to the competition he's up again. Steeleling1 was right--it should be about raw undiscovered talent, but somehow tonight it wasn't.
