American Idol: Final 12


Photobucket





OK….so last night, I went as far as to predict the FINAL 3 spots from the WILD CARD ROUND: Matt Giraud, Jasmine Murray and Megan Corkrey, to move into the TOP 12….EDDIE RULES!! J PERFECT!!…… Until Anoop was let in to ruin it all and make it 13!! But, truth be told, I didn’t think Megan (per my earlier post after Anoop was done singing) was as worthy as Jessica was tonight, but she’s going home and Megan luckily moves on! Some more reactions from the Wild Card Round of contestants in the order they performed on Thursday night:


1. JESSICA LANGSETH—She FINALLY showed me why she was still competing and I thought she really sang her song very sultry and sexy, and sassy and jazzy, but certainly NOT indulgent, and good enough to move on. I think she was just ever-so-barely edged out by Megan or Jasmine, confirmed by Simon telling her as much!


2. MATT GIRAUD- Predicted he’d be back strong, he picked the right song, and he’ll be a force to contend with! Just wait until he gets behind the piano again!!


3. MEGAN CORKREY- Same awkward and quirky moves again at the mic tonight, didn’t think she sang all that well either…but….she’s in the TOP 13!

4. VON SMITH—Horrible song choice for him, it was very dark and boring! He should have known better!


5. JASMINE MURRAY—Didn’t think she did as well as the judges thought she did, but well enough to go through. She’s the youngest of all the TOP 13, so she’ll carry the young vote for quite a few weeks!

6. RICKY BRADDY—Another not-so-great song choice for him doing Stevie Wonder’s ‘Superstition’. Why is it that people have such a hard time with picking the right song for them to excel at!?


7. TATIANA DEL TORO-She didn’t sing all that badly, but she’s just soooooo over the top with drama, and really….how many times can you sing the same damn song!!?? Three times was NOT a charm for her!!

8. ANNOP DESAI- I’ll use Simon’s favorite word here----INDULGENT!! Who let this Noop Dog IN!!?? What a joke! He should be on a plane back to NC or wherever he’s from! UGH!!!


BOTTOM LINE: Of the TOP 13, I predicted 8 of them, not too shabby: Jasmine Murray, Megan Corkrey, Matt Giraud, Danny Gokey, Alexis Grace, Adam Lambert, Scott MacIntyre and of course….Lil Rounds!


Inside the Numbers: Of the TOP 13, 8 are guys and 5 are gals, so you would think the odds are stacked in the guys favor? We shall see!


So now that we now have the TOP 13, I hate typing 13 and not 12….let’s see some predictions from EVERYBODY on this list before next Tuesday’s show! Come on, who’s your favorite to win it? Who’s the TOP GUY and TOP GAL? I’ll have my predictions out on Monday on who will make The Final 4, and who I think will be in the FINALE’ …..but for now, have a great weekend, enjoy the Spring-time temps, and don’t forget to turn the clocks ahead Saturday night! Until next week…it’s Eddie ‘NO NOOP’ Idol……OUT!!
