american idol thread

I was thinking during the show ... "Damn crackers! Is Gloria Estefan and Rob Thomas the closest they've ever heard of Latin music? WTF?"

EXACTLY!!

Last night's "American Idol" was all sorts of boring. The moment of the night was of course when JLo mentored Sangina. He sang "Besame Mucho" when he really should've sang "La Isla Bonita", but that's besides the point. The best part was when JLo started to sing with him. Watching her sing is like watching hyenas slowly devour a baby zebra. It's slow as and painful.

That being said, Sangina wasn't half bad last night. Painted on facial hair and everything.

I would have died if someone sang La Isla Bonita!!! And the JLo crack

My favorite Latin moment was during the season that Reuben won.

Carmen Rasputin (who sang way worse than Sanjaya, but Simon picked as the wildcard) bleated her way through Turn The Beat Around, with bleating emphasis on 'round'.

I'm sure Tlongs ears perked up that night!

No, she's not hispanic but I think singing a part of a song in spanish would've done wonders for her. Some of Selena's english songs have spanish phrases in them so Haley wouldn't have had to learn a whole song in spanish. Sanjaya seemed to surprise everyone by singing in spanish and he did good. I think if she would've chosen a song with some spanish lyrics, people would have recognized her effort and voice for a change!

BTW: She's Italian.

Didn't Selena do a cover of the song Haley sang last night? I was hoping she would sing one of the songs Selena sang, originally, but oh well. She's still in the bottom, imo.

Sangina?

[Shelly]

Sangina?

And yet, it works!

[Sonia_TX]

We were thinking Haley was going to sing Bidi Bidi Bom Bom! Glad she didn't but I would have liked for her to sing a Selena song too...

[angel_luv]

What? No who got voted off update. Slacking on me people.

[loveThe23]

Haley got voted off, angel.

also, Phil and Chris were in the bottom three with her.

[Shelly]

I hope SeaWorld and/or Fiesta Texas is still hiring!

[Sonia_TX]

I wasn't surprised that Haley left tonight. It sucks though because I was rooting for our home town girl but she wasn't great last night.

[midgetonadonkey]

Did Sanjaya make it?

[tsb2000]

He wasn't in the bottom 3, so "Sanjina" lives another day.

[Amarelooms]

Howard Stern gonna help that Sanjaya win this. Idol sucks...can't believe people watch this crap. Baba Booey to you all!!

[angel_luv]

Adios Haley.

Thanks for the update guys.

[Spam]

Haley's legs kick ass.

[MrChug]

Anybody notice and laugh at Sangaya pretending to have the hots for J-Lo?? (okay dude, the cat's outta the bag)

[50 cent]

i hope sangina wins so we don't have to watch another season of this craptastic show.

[MajorMike]

Not suprised, just upset the Alien isn't gone yet.

I predict next week he is toast.

[dallaskd]

To bad Haley is off. It was her turn. Phil is gone next week.

[rr2418]

It almost looked like Haley was relieved that she was eliminated and doesn't have to go through another week of wise cracks about her outfits, legs, Simon, etc. I still say she was a good singer but her decision to show more skin obviously cost her. Haley should have stayed true to herself and sang the type of songs she was comfortable with, that would be slow songs. I am not comparing Haley to Melinda, but that's why she(Melinda) is strong every week b/c she doesn't go far from her comfort zone.

[dallaskd]

Sanjaya is gonna win this whole damn thing.

[dallaskd]

Is there a theme tonight?

[SpursWoman]

Country. Yeeee-haw...

[dallaskd]

Country. Yeeee-haw...

Sanjaya singing country.
