AI 8 3-4-09 And there are now 9 or the night Ronald lost Control

You control their destiny, who did you choose America? THIS IS AMERICAN IDOL!

It is another results show and the tension is flowing – NOT!

Cue first video providing us with one last (AS IF) of this group’s journey to night. It just continues to be a time waster.

Next up is a group number. Tonight we are attempting “Hot and Cold” and overall it was not too bad. The group did seem to have some good harmonies and it was fascinating to watch the choreography especially what they did with Scott.

I am telling you I am right, FOX needs some revenue since Ryan once again had to tell us to watch the commercials very carefully in order to catch a hidden Audition. It really cannot be hidden when you start it off with the American Idol Theme. It was not exactly a stellar audition and to the “Theme from The Jefferson’s – Moving on Up” – PLEASE!

Cue next montage of last night’s audition highlights – I am not sure why this is needed since I watched it already.

The first contestant to advance to the top 12 is Lil Rounds. This really surprised me. LOL!

Arianna, Taylor, Alex, and Kendall did not make it through to the top 12.

Scott MacIntyre is there and was not again it is anti-climatic. I do have to say Scott’s performance tonight was much better then last night.

Nathaniel and Kristen are the next two to get the bad news. It is then Felicia and Von’s time to get the bad news.

Finally, we have Ju’Not and Jorge waiting for the final spot and Jorge gets the good news as he is now in the Top 12.

Ronald called all three correctly and ultimately he was right about seven of the nine.

Now the nail biting begins because the judges are going to announce the eight contestants who get a second chance to sing for their lives tomorrow night in the Wild Card round. The judges have deliberated and made their choices. We were advised during the commercial break a last minute change was made.

The wild card contestants are as follows in the order they were announced:

Von Smith

Jasmine Murray

Ricky Braddy

Megan Corkrey

HH - I knew those frigging producers were going to do this because I do not believe THAT for a second it was the judge’s decision. Ronald blew a gasket and I am surprised there wasn’t a 9.0 earthquake by the time I was finished yelling and screaming and using some very choice and color words all with a combination using f*^k. I threw a few things across the room as well. Do not get me started on her phony reaction? Oh what the hell I am never seen such a totally faked put on reaction as that from HH. I did not believe one moment of her reaction, it was to well rehearsed and the all most falling to the ground – give me a frigging break. Her taste in wardrobe has not improved, that was a totally ugly dress and very unflattering. Naturally, she was not wearing a bra. This way she can practice getting votes the only way she can by using her body.

Matt Giraud

Jesse Langseth

Anoop Desai

I can live with all the other choices except HH. There is a couple I would swap out but overall this is a great group for the Wild Card. My concern is the judge’s decision. We already have six men in the top 12 but only 3 women. How will this affect their outcome?

I am not sure how I will handle HH being in the top 12. It will mean that everyone must take on the chore of defeating her next week. We cannot let her make it to the Top 10 because she will go on the tour and this will not happen while there is breath left in my body.

Until tomorrow…
