Tyler has a new movie coming out “The Family That Preys” that right Preys.  It is not a typo it's a movie that seem to be packed full of action. Interesting cast!  

Another good one from Tyler.... I think he may have out done his self on this one.  I can't wait to see it!

Coming up as a child, I have watched the beautiful blonde and blue-eyed Heather Locklear sashay around on my television screen.  I remember her on Dynasty and Melrose Place.  She has dated famous men from Tom Cruise to Scott Baio.  She was married to Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee they were married for 7yrs.  They divorced in 1993. She has landed many roles in several different television series.  Let us not forget all of the commercials.  However, what would bring someone so beautiful and famous to her breaking point.  She married Richie Sambora in 1994 in Paris.  They have a little girl together. On February 2, 2006, divorce papers were filed to dissolve the couple’s marriage. Was her  2nd divorce the straw that broke the camel’s back?

Man gets Tattoo and implant for his leg.  I know this is old news but it is new to me.  This is stupid. How bizarre!

It seems that America realized that David Cook was actually the strongest singer of the two.  David Archuletta indeed is a talented and cute kid, but I do not think he was ready to be the America Idol.  I know he will get signed with some record label because he is talented.  This season’s top 12 cannot carry a tune in a bucket when singing together it is like listening to some horrible Broadway musical.   They always seemed off key or pitchy when singing as a group!  Last night why did they let Jason I am going to sing you a lullaby Castro sing Hallelujah? For god sakes, how much torture must we endure?  He was shaking and everything!  No one has really wowed me this season but the most consistent two were the Davids.  Congratulations David Cook!

 I hope next year Paula, Simon and Randy do a better job at selecting people to go to hollywood this was the weakest pool of contestants I have ever seen in the history of AI.

As I predicted that in the end it will be the two Davids, David Cook and David Archuletta.  Let’s review their season on AI.  David Archuletta is a talented kid to my knowledge he has always been called first because obviously he is getting the most votes.  He can sing but he has not wowed me yet.  He sounds the same on almost every song he sings. 

David Cook is talented and shows the most versatility of the two.  He is not boring at all; he brings excitement to the stage everytime he performs.  He is usually called second after lil’david.  My sister and I decided that the David Archuletta is cute but he is not ready to be the next American Idol.  I am sure he will still get a record deal. (I can actually see him on broadway) So, for the first time this season I will cast my votes for David Cook in hopes that he will be the next American idol.  

OMG, this show was so emotional for me.  It hurts me to see people around the world and the United States not able to afford medicines, food and who are living in unlivable conditions.  You can see the despair in their eyes.  You can see the pain!  I was crying every time they showed the families. It was heartbreaking to see children without parents, children with aids, no healthcare.  Lord I was like Michael Jackson “Tito, pass me some tissue”!  Unfortunately there was no one there to bring me any tissue.  So I got it myself!  LOL!   Viewing the show it helped me to stop complaining about my life as it is right now.  Because when you think you have it bad somebody else has it worst. I am learning to count my blessings.   I was quite tired of the jokes about Simon’s man breasts, haircut and his sweaters.

I have come to the conclusion that American Idol has somehow lost its zest and its steam.  I remember I longed for the nights to turn the TV on to actually hear some real talent.   However as the seasons past there is less and less real entertainment.  This year people lack as Simon say “charisma and stage presence.”  I am still hopeful for David Archuleta! The judges are getting cornier by the minute with their little tantrums and debates about the lack of talent or the talent of the performers.  Although I think Simon is crazy I do agree with his point of view quite often.  The first few seasons were the best years with Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, Fantasia, Jennifer Hudson, Clay Aiken, George Huff, Bobo Bice, Tamyra Gray, Carrie Underwood, Elliot Yamin, and etc.

There is no one with what Simon use to say the IT factor! I am waiting on someone to wow me! But right now I will just yawn instead!

02/19/2008 Last night theme was songs from the 60’s

1st David Hernandez, sung “Wait Until the Midnight Hour” he started off really strong and got a little pitchy at the end.  He has a voice like a gospel singer.  He seemed a little nervous but overall he gave a good performance.

Voice Quality                    B+

Overall Performance       C-

2ND Chikezie, sung “I love you more today than yesterday” first of all I agree with Simon I hate his suit it was like a blast from the past.  It made him look older! He does not take criticism well! America may not like that! He has a good voice but I was not blown away.  He seemed argumentative!

Voice Quality                    C-

Overall Performance        D+

3rd David Cook, sung “So Happy Together” He has a rocker’s type voice.  He made the song his own.  He did well enough that I feel he is definitely safe from elimination.  He did sound like he was shouting but that was ok he did stay on pitch.

Voice Quality                    C+

Overall Performance        B+

4th Jason Yeager, I don’t know what the heck he was singing his has a very controlled voice but he was boring.  So boring in fact he look like this song is corny and boring.  I got confused by a statement Simon made he said Jason was like an old dependable dog.   I think he song a safe song! But safe does not have to be boring.

5th Robbie Carrico sung “One is the loniest number” he is truly a rocker.  He made this song his own.  And he had fun doing so.  I like his voice; it has a good quality to it!

Voice Quality                  B+

Overall  Performance     B-

6th David Archuleta, sung “My mama told me to shop around” wonderful song choice.  It was good to see a different style of singing from this young man.  He is only 17 but I am really impressed with his control of his vocals.  He is going to go far so far that I will predict that he will be in the top 3.

Voice Quality                    B+

Overall Performance       B+

7th Danny Noriega, sung “Jail House Rock”, OMG let me stay focus but I do have some concerns however I am here critique his voice and performance. The performance itself was uncomfortable.  LOL!  (Paula, please colors of Danny statement didn’t help what I was feeling) I was like Simon, Paula I didn’t understanding anything you were saying last night. ) I couldn’t believe they were arguing back & forth like they were back in Hollywood. That was weird!

Voice Quality                     C+

Overall Performance        D-

8th Luke McNerd, sung “Everybody talking about me”, the song was boring and so was the performance.  The ending was a mess it sounded like he was yodeling.

Voice Quality                    C-

Overall Performance       D-

9th Colton Berry, I can’t remember what he sung; he was a little theatrical during his performance.  He would do great on Broadway.

Voice Quality                    C+

Overall Performance       C-

10th Garrett Haley, sung “Breaking up is hard to do” he looks like a girl and he sounds like a girl.  He was little pitchy, boring and the song he sung was a safe song.  He song with no passion or excitement at all in his voice.  Simon, stated in so many words Garrett needs a new look and some sun.  I don’t like this young man’s hair at all!  Garret where’s the energy? You are in Hollywood! Wake up!

Voice Quality                    D+

Overall Performance        D-

11th Jason Castro, sung “What a day for a day dream” he sung a safe song if you ask me. He has a nice voice; he is talented he plays his guitar well. 

Voice Quality                    B-

Overall Performance       C+

12th Michael Johns sung “Come on baby light my fire” he seems so comfortable in front of the cameras and when he is performing.  He has a rocker style going for himself! Without a doubt I know he is safe.  He has good control and sounds very professional when he singing.

Voice Quality                    A-

Overall Performance       B-

I am waiting on someone to wow me the guys have not been successful in doing so; I can’t want to hear from the women tonight.  Don’t get me wrong we have some talented guys this year! 

What did you think about last night performances?
