AIR Edition #1
Andy’s Idol Recap….Final 12 style
Big Stage…Big Hype…Big Deal???
Last night was an interesting twist for all us idolers. Real tough to cover
a Beatles song though. For the most part the faves were… Just Aiiight.
Some were disappointing, some performances were expected, but the biggest
shock of the night can be summed up in one word…. CHIKEZE!!! That dude
threw it down!
Let’s get down to the nitty gritty…Who is this Encarnacion? Oops
movie line…hehe (Nacho Libre). I saw the individual performances like this:
Syesha – She is..just easy to look at. Pretty girl, intriguing, beautiful
smile and a very good interview. Her voice is big but last night’s spin
left a lot to be desired. It was not stellar. She will have to do better
than that. Prediction: I still think she will be Top 6-8.
Chikeze – Like I said – I think he even surprised himself. He sang like he
had nothing to lose and …well he had everything to lose because he was all
but voted out last week. Figured to be the first to go out of the 12, but
with last night’s throwdown – he ..AIN’T. Prediction: I think he is toast
in the next 2-3 weeks. He’s safe tonight though.
Ramielle – I won’t lie…her cuteness is running out of steam. Paris was
cuter and she could sing…it gets old fast. I seriously thought she was
going to fall down the stairs, did anyone else? Prediction: She is in
trouble with last nights performance, lucky for her – there was one
performance WORSE than hers.
Jason – K, the interviews are pretty bad. Yeah, yeah he is just’being him’
but they don’t do him a service. He rocked last week, but was just ‘eh’
this one. He’s safe, but his little “oops faces” that he makes while
singing may get a little old – quickly. Prediction: He’s going to be
around awhile, top 5-6 thinks I.
Carly – I have to admit that I am not a huge Carly fan. I lover her Irish
accent but I am so distracted by that snake thing crawling up her arm. She
definitely can sing. I think she is my Melinda Doolittle of this season.
Shes good – but I don’t want her to win. 
Prediction: Top 1-4 though.
David C. – The ‘real rocker’. Gosh David I hate your hair but I respect
your pipes man. He is not so much a darkhorse Paula, and I think he
benefits from the genre who loved Daughtry and are still suffering over his
loss a few seasons ago. Simon said it best – if this was a talent contest
he has a great chance to win. But we all know its not…hehe Prediction:
Gonna say Top 1-4.
Amanda – Ohhhh please not another night of Elvira!!! Halloween is so far
away. “Are you experiencing any shortness of breath?”. I think I’d rather
have breathing problems than have her come to my home and scare me. “Trick
or Treat! Need a respirator?” Loved her pants though! But she is yucky.
I think she will be fine for a few weeks as she isn’t worst singer left in
the competition. Gone in 2-4 weeks.
David H. Male Stripper, not a problem, but to male clientele? EWWWWW!!!
His performance was ghastly. That’s my favorite Simon word. Ghastly!
Poor Kid – I guess Pizza Bistro Tips aren’t as good as he thought they
should be. Prediction: 8th place is his best hope.
Brooke – Ok ok – she needs to put away the hanky. She was great last night.
She needs a little more confidence and I hope that comes with each week a
little more. She has a fantastic voice – good enough to place her Top 1-4.
Obviously I like her, can you tell?
Michael – He has been playing it way too safe to even stick out. Maybe this
is smarter than we all know. One of these weeks he will either Bust out or
get tossed because he just doesn’t show it all. I still think he is good
enough to make it to the Top 4-6.
Kristy – Um…Buh Bye! Kristy the end of the road has come for you. You
sang horribly, your pants were atrocious, you are a dime a dozen and its
time for you to hear the songs, You’ve had a Bad Day, You’re going home!
Don’t let the doorknob hit ya where the good Lord split ya.
David A – You are lucky that this was not a performance that you needed
towards the end of the show. It was completely subpar – even for the Top
12. If you had done that earlier – you would have gone home in a plastic
Glad garbage bag. You survive though because you have been great. Find it
again kid. Forgetting lyrics gets people sent home from Hollywood week.
Booooo. Prediction: he will find it – and will make the Top 1-4.
That’s it for me…In the immortal words of Kip Dynamite….”Peace Out”
