Sneaking onto the AI soundstage:  Standing on the judges platform and 1) Saying "Yo Dawg" in Randy's Mic; 2) "You Look Beautiful" in Paula's mic; and 3) Standing on the same stage as Katharine McPhee!  Both V & I went on the stage, I stood in the American Idol circle and pretended I was an American Idol contestant.  It was so cool being on that stage, we snuck backstage for a minute too just to soak in the whole experience.   (NOTE:  There was a guy in the back observing us, but let us have our fun, he didn't say a word, which was very cool). 

 "Yo ...YO........ "

"hmm arrh hmm eee ahh money in back pcket errh errh errh You look beautiful... errhh arrr Your mama is going to be so prod...arrr eerrhh..."

"... I just dont know what to say anymore...." "Tell you what, if this is what America wants.... You are brave, so very brave"

Heehee -

Hey Co - Guess what I would have aid into those mics!!!!!

By the end of the Idol season we might be able to get this thread to KAT IN GLASSES levels!  25 pages and we've only reached the Top 9.  Very impressive.  I must say that I am impressed how everyone is keeping up with this.  I expressed a concern to Co before we got going that I wasn't so sure we'd be able to keep people going every week to make elimination picks but looks like I was wrong.  This is probably why Co sells the pool and I keep track of the money.    I mean the points.

"I saw Katharine McPhee when there were about 12 contestants left on American Idol. She blew me away. I loved her grace, her style, her poise, her voice and her hair! I wanted her to be the face of Sexy Hair because she represented everything that I had in my head for the brand: youth, beauty, talent, class, a young sophistication, and sexiness." -- Jim Morrison, CEO of Sexy Hair Products.

My Divine Nine:

1. Melinda
2. Blake
3. Jordin
4. Lakisha
5. Gina
6. Chris R.
7. Sanjaya
8. Haley
9. Phil (please be gone already!)

The only thing I like about Phil Stacey is his wife; she seems like a genuinely nice and supportive person. Her face make her seem like she can't do anybody harm. And I really admire her for being so supportive of her husband, despite the fact that most of us want him gone.



I hear ya Shina, she does look like the sweetest thing.  I remember Phil's auditiion and the birth of his baby, the family angle's working for him - it definitely made for good TV and that's what AI loves; however, Phil's run should be coming to an end soon.  Phil just doesn't have the "It" factor and I would have much rather had Sundance and AJ still in the competition instead of Phil and Sanjaya. 

It's funny when you think back to the "Sundance Shocker" elimination, the judges thought for sure Sundance would be a major contender and then Sanjaya won his spot.   AI has been a whole different  season with Sanjaya in the Top 12.   We all thought he would be gone in the semi-final rounds, but he keeps hanging on, he's definitely "the little contest that could" - thanks to Howard Stern, Dial Idol and teeny bops.

Good job selecting your Divine Nine before the deadline!  Those of you that include your particpant # with your screen name get a gold star , so thank you for doing that - it makes it a lot easier.  There's only two participants that need to post their selections:  Big Shady and sirdoug - so, get on it or 50 lashes with a Taylor Hicks CD for you! 

Prizes? - I posted something last week on this thread, asking for your feedback on doing weekly prizes and an overall prize for the winner; however, no responses.  Sometimes I feel like I'm speaking to a wall, so please let me know if ya'll may be interested in doing this (click here for more details - Page 23).

E-mail addresses - I sent an e-mail via KMF to the individuals who's e-mail address I am lacking and also posted your screen name on this post. (Page 24)   I'm trying to put together an e-mail group to keep all participants informed, etc., so please drop me a quick reply with your e-mail address. 

I'll get all the submissions entered this evening.  That's all the housekeeping duties for now.  Good luck everyone!

Bad news guys and gals from dialidol land.

The East and Central voting has ended, and dialidol is showing the bottom 4 as Lakisha, Gina, Jordin and Haley. The top 4 are Melinda, Chris, Phil and Sanjaya. And Blake is right in the middle. So if nothing changes someone we REALLY, REALLY like may be eliminated. And it sure looks like Phil and Sanjaya will be performing in the Top 8.

Things were really confused by the theme tonight, with just about everyone (but Sanjaya that is) doing a passable job, and only Melinda really standing out (as always).

I actually thought all the contestants were inspired tonight--and showed off their true talents. That speaks well for both the quality of the songs (well, why else do they call them "standards?") and the abilities of the contestants left. Yes, I go out on a huge, huge limb and even say Sanjaya was passable tonight with 'Cheek to Cheek.' (Or in his case, "Cheeky to Cheeky.") His voice is still weak, but he at least projected a little more. He'd probably get some respect if he just bothered to sing a little louder and work on his stage moves. And the respect would probably increase if he cut off his locks and went with the Chris R. military buzz cut. Good lord, now a NW hairdresser is taking credit for his faux hawk hairstyle last week according to my local Fox 10 o'clock news tonight. Please, don't drag the NW through the mud like that...

And now for the big news related to Sanjaya: Tony Bennett praised him as a...(drum roll)....great entertainer! Well, I respect Tony a lot--and he probably has merit in that. Some people here on KMF and other boards are starting to say the same thing. I've said all along that he could be ok if he'd just work on the things I mentioned above. He did fine in the auditions...and then apparently let nerves make him look like one of the worst amateurs on the planet. Sometimes I wonder if his sister would have been better since I liked her a lot during the Seattle auditions.

Because of this buildup of Sanjaya--I should have put him at #5 on my Divine Nine list as most of you did. Too late to turn back now. Keeping him at #7 is still workable, however, because my local Fox news phone poll still has him voted in overwhelmingly to go home. That's been consistent for weeks now.

Surprises of the night: Gina, Blake and Chris--when singing Tony Bennett songs aren't their usual forte. Blake's 'Mack the Knife' was pretty good (he proves he can do different styles), though not as great as others I've heard. I liked Gina's version of 'Smile.' Chris did a good job of making 'Don't Get Around Much Anymore' current. Even Haley did pretty well with 'Ain't Misbehavin.' She showed her gams again...so she survives. Putting her at #5 on my list might be a stretch, though I think it's a logical risk.

Melinda, Jordin and LaKisha were awesome as usual.

I think we were all smart to keep Phil as the one going home. No matter what DialIdol says--I think he'll be the one tomorrow night. If someone like LaKisha or Jordin goes home...then we may as well go home too.

A rather entertaining night - you saw how performers respond to having really great material with which to work.

I think I'm the only Phil booster here (even though I selected him to go home this week). He has done very well the last two weeks, imo, as the material has suited his singing; he struggled in the early weeks with bad song choices (Leanne Rimes?). Paula Abdul has upped her game this year with useful criticism, and she has Phil pegged - excellent in the chorus, average in the rest. I agree.

Richardson is coming on like a freight train. He outperformed Blake last night, by far.

Which creates an interesting situation. Assuming Phil is eliminated, that leaves Blake, Chris and Sanjaya as the remaining guys. Most assume Blake will make it to at least third, but is that a good bet? Chris has closed the "appeal" gap on him and Sanjaya is in a category of his own. I don't think Blake is such a sure thing anymore. Given the right circumstances, either of these guys could outpoll him on a given week and send him home unexpectedly.

I'm also a Jordin fan, but I found her performance a bit hard to embrace, much like last week's effort. She's doing just fine, but her song choices are leaving me unsatisfied. I think she needs to keep an eye on that - you don't get extra points for degree of difficulty. Particularly on a Standards Night, she should sing what the voters expect to hear.

As for others: Melinda dominated a jazz standard - yawn. Haley showed some leg, Vegas showgirl style - enough already. Gina put her heart out there - nice but not memorable. Lakisha stayed comfortably within her downcast cocoon - powerful but distant as usual. Sanjaya smiled a lot.

On the upswing - Chris, Phil

Showing Weakness - Blake

Entering dangerous territory - Lakisha

Clock is Ticking - Gina, Haley
