After Syesha's \"Hello Again\" (which I think was good), Ryan Seacrest called everyone on stage and asked the judges to quickly say what they think of the first round of performance. Randy said his piece first which were all quick one-liners. When it was Paula's time, she immediately complained that it was not easy since they now have to write their comments which they never had before. She started reading her notes on Jason Castro's first song, \"Forever in Blue Jeans\", saying that it's not good blah, blah THEN SHE STARTED COMMENTING ON HIS SECOND SONG WHICH HAVE NOT BEEN PERFORMED YET. All the people were shocked and you can see Simon rolling his eyes! So what happened? Is the show scripted all this time? Ryan, Simon and Randy had to pitch in and cover for her mistake with excuses! Terrible, terrible mistake! Her alibi?

Aren't they suppose to judge the actual live performance and not anything else? Hear the interview through Rickey.org.

Her performances last night were good and she was way better than David Archuleta who had several vocal and pitch problems on his two songs. David Cook was amazing as usual and Jason's fans are all making sure that he stays on the game (or was it coincidence that Paula's booboo was Jason's gain?). As for Brooke, well, she should have gone last week and not Carly. I love her better than Syesha but the eliminations are getting weirder and weirder each week.

I was supposed to post this after watching the Mariah Carey night of American Idol last Tuesday (Wednesday evening re-run here in the Philippines) but stuff for work came first. I am really really happy that KLC finally got the boot. I was in a meeting when I got the news from Jang via SMS. Finally!\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eAnyway, here's my take on the Mariah Carey Week and the Top 7's performances. This was written evening of April 16, Manila Time.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ca href\u003d\"http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v94/abbie12/?action\u003dview\u0026current\u003d31008.jpg\" target\u003d\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cimg src\u003d\"http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v94/abbie12/31008.jpg\" border\u003d\"0\" alt\u003d\"Photobucket\"\u003e\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/center\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eI am supposed to be working on some proposals and communication plans for work but here I am blogging. I am actually multi-tasking. I am working, surfing the Internet and watching American Idol all at the same time. \u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eI’ve been excitedly waiting for the Mariah Carey Week for days so I might as well blog about my thoughts on the actual outcome of the show and my take on it.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eOn Mariah\u003c/strong\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eI am not really a fan of Mariah but I have some of her songs in my iPod. I like some of her songs and I hate some of them. But I am really looking forward for tonight's show since I am familiar with most of her music. Mariah was actually a good mentor for the Idols unlike Dolly Parton who complimented all performers and never said a bad thing on anyone. Mariah actually suggested some stuff to them on how they can perform better. I am actually impressed by Mariah’s “achievement” which I did not know until now. I am surprised to learn that she surpassed Elvis Presley in having the most #1 hits in the charts.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn The Outfit \u0026 The Styling\u003c/strong\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eThe girls all looked nice! It’s nice to see them all dolled up for a Diva’s night. Everyone's in dress and had good styling! Kristy Lee Cook was uber-beautiful and she can already start appearing in cover pages of magazines because of her stunning good looks. \u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn The Idols\u003c/strong\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eI think that they all did well but of course the performance that stood-out was David Cook’s version of “Always Be My Baby”. I got a lot of SMS from my friends and family all gushing on his original rendition and arrangement of one of my favorite Mariah songs. The tears at the end of his performance and the back story on his brother’s AI visit will surely convince America that he’s truly destined to be on the top. \u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eDavid Archuleta’s performance of “If I Believe” was also good but I’ve expected an \"emo ballad\" from him so no surprises here. His Archy Angels will make sure that he will be saved week after week until the finals. His child-like charms and his great vocals (whatever his song choice may be) is a guarantee of making it. I am not a big fan though. \u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eI bet it's going to be David vs. David in the finals...and my money is on Cook. Archy is one-dimensional while Cookie is exciting!\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eJason’s all good this week. Not too great but not too blah. It’s not as good as his “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” last week. He’s one of the underdogs but I hope that he would be able to pull through until Top 4 or 5.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eThe girls’ performances were quite forgettable. I really don’t like Brooke’s unplugged version of “Hero”, which I believe is one of Mariah’s hard-hitting-high-notes signature songs. It was a real letdown compared to the Carey original. But Brooke has always been the nice and genuine girl of the show so her personality might save her. I cannot forget the look on her face when Simon told her his “hamburger and bun” analogy on her performance. Priceless!\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eSyesha was good but she’s not a very popular Idol (ever since!) so it might be “stool time” again for her despite the glowing remarks of the judges of her \"Vanishing\" rendition.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eKristy Lee Cook was actually good *groan* (she sang \"Forever\") but I still don’t like her singing and I want her to go home! She’s getting better lately but I don’t think that she deserves where she is now. She’s better suited in the movies, modelling or something. Hah! To quote my friend Jang: “KLC got nine lives!.”\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003eI am really really really afraid for Carly for she might be sent home tomorrow. Her performance was okay but she could have done better. Simon and the others really have high expectations and they think that she’s not delivering too much. I was actually surprised that “Without You” was sang/covered by Mariah. I am more familiar with the original male version of the song.\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho I want to be at the bottom three:\u003c/strong\u003e Kristy, Syesha, Brooke\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho I think will be at the bottom three:\u003c/strong\u003e Syesha, Brooke, Carly\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho I want to go:\u003c/strong\u003e Syesha or Kristy \u003cbr /\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho I think will go:\u003c/strong\u003e Syesha or Carly\u003cbr /\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e"},"link":[{"rel":"replies","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https://www.abbiereal.net/feeds/6103181617626467152/comments/default","title":"Post Comments"},{"rel":"replies","type":"text/html","href":"https://www.abbiereal.net/2008/04/idols-mariah.html#comment-form","title":"6 Comments"},{"rel":"edit","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https://www.blogger.com/feeds/6756132/posts/default/6103181617626467152"},{"rel":"self","type":"application/atom+xml","href":"https://www.blogger.com/feeds/6756132/posts/default/6103181617626467152"},{"rel":"alternate","type":"text/html","href":"https://www.abbiereal.net/2008/04/idols-mariah.html","title":"THE IDOLS \u0026 MARIAH"}],"author":[{"name":{"$t":"Abbie"},"uri":{"$t":"https://www.blogger.com/profile/14265494155672178468"},"email":{"$t":"noreply@blogger.com"},"gd$image":{"rel":"http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail","width":"32","height":"32","src":"//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3ZlB3UUlhyXMQIaOi0DTXHREeL7tPKYtpZW-Cgma25DaIFEbiZkZ0D08RVrDzo_ROLV5ScywRCzPoxvWl-vj28vl2O-0rfZuHdTJurdaZeEmlLum-GUVmb2ouddpHRQ/s113/AbbieGorgeous.jpg"}}],"thr$total":{"$t":"6"}}]}});
