I thought America was right on the money with sending Judd home but sad about Jared. I enjoyed Jared’s voice. I am okay with sending Melinda home (NEVER do Celine) but was sad with Sarah. I don’t think Sarah could have come close to bringing it home but Janay definitely should have left before Sarah. I don’t think Sarah was “up” for this but I do think she has a good future in the business. Another voice that I do enjoy. She’s young though…she’ll have more opportunities.

I was shocked the way Melinda “reacted” to her exit. Out of all the years we have watched, I don’t think anyone has ever reacted in such a rude manner (we thought it was rude anyway!). It’ll be interesting to see what next week brings! 🙂
I totally agree Melissa! What was she thinking! She had this prime opportunity to be gracious in front of America and she blew it. You know what? When millions just ranked you at the bottom it doesn’t help your case to pass the buck to low exposure. Fact is…on her first night out she attempted to put herself in a Celine category and everyone knows that is a “no no”! (Celine is probably my all time favorite artist by the way – judging on vocal talent). Me thinks pride cometh before a fall:)
P.S. to Melissa – Cailyn’s recent pictures are so adorable btw.
I agree with Melissa as well. Melinda was pretty blown away by America but with the way she acted I am glad that she is gone. Although Janay should have been the first one to go. Sarah I really didn’t think was going to make it much further.
Now for the men, Judd and Jared were both ok. I really didn’t care for Jared’s voice but I am not surprised that Judd got sent home either. I did enjoy Judd much more then a few of the other men on there and was really shocked. He had a great attitude about leaving. GO CARRIE AND MARIO!!
i didn’t think of melinda as rude but rather completely shock… until she blamed low exposure – even the judges sort of backed her up on that (or was it paula trying to soothe her?) that is ridiculous – although i’m sure exposure helps – but duh, they are giving exposure to the favorites – why wouldn’t they? that’s competition and business. they are not idiots – they are smart – that’s why they are record producers. they allow america to choose but they are smart to help lean america a certain way as their money is on the line – they will be backing the starting career for these people – they want the best out there. just smart. melinda obviously wasn’t in the best list. and yes – she could have left graciously but she was hurt and bitter and it showed up in her response of denial and blame.
sarah – she is an adorable little gal. i like her for that. i don’t think her voice stacked up but perhaps with age & time maturing her voice and better song choices she could be back. maybe she should try again next year.
as to boys – well i wasn’t surprised about either. jas thought they’d both stay because girls would like their looks. and jas was very disappointed about jarod – he really liked him. even during his encore performance he did a bad note and i said “even now” and he said “YES!” he was shocked. but i personally didn’t like his voice. he was cute and seemed sweet – i was bummed when he got choked up on stage and felt sorry for him. but i don’t think he could come close to winning this competition.
oh yes – and janay is the one i was speaking about when i said i’ll be watching to see if she goes home next week. and i think she will.
I thought when Sarah sang her “goodbye” song, she did a really good job! I like her voice! And as far as the men go, I’m really voting for Scott but I must add, Bo & Constantine add a really exciting new avenue! I think it would be pretty cool if one of them won, too! Our Cailyn’s pretty cute heh? Thank you! 🙂 🙂 🙂
And, I must add somewhat of a “tacky” comment (imagine that?!?!). Now, the cute, cute black girl (forgive me, I forget her name) with the HUGE, poofy hair – anyone but me wondering how she holds her head up/on? Heehee… 😉
hee hee! i love her big hair too – don’t you all? it’s wild fun and unique. and on her – it doesn’t look a bit out of place – she carries it off so well. i, on the other hand, would look like an idiot! 🙂 but she looks great. good for her for being so brave and unique!
i also think with her darks skin, height, and overall look – she has a very – oh, what’s the word – i can’t think of it but it’s almost foreign, maybe a european model look or something… just unique… there’s a word but i’m not finding it.
Here name is Nadia. Apparently I am the only true die hard here. And like, Heather, I do read their interviews on the web too:)
Hey I’m sleep deprived! I can’t remember everyone’s name! lol! 🙂 I’m a walking zombie…just look up above at #7. Three sentences in a row I have “really, really, & really”. Ha! 🙂
ok – it’s week 2 of voting for the boy performers and no notes from doni yet! aaaa! i want to comment!
(go figure, i want a place on YOUR site to say something – ha ha!)
Hey, I’m ready to comment too! Come on Doni – we want to use your site to compare! 🙂
