Who Will Be The Next American Idol, Scotty or Lauren ?


Time flies very quickly. 
Here we are, watching the musical face-off as it unfolds in front of our eyes.
  2 Idol contestants, 7,000 screaming fans at El Lay Nokia Theater, 3 worn out and almost 'boring' judges who say the same thing again and again, plus 6 performances that i don't know if it's finale-worthy. You do the math, total all of the figures given and you'll arrive with one solution - equals 7,011 bigtime suck!, Phew all of this wouldn't have happened if Haley's still around. 

As expected Dear Scotty did not even break a sweat, with that i mean he's so comfortable singing his ass on-stage. I would like to assume those performances were his last concert on Idol- since it's the Finale, right?
With Lauren, our teen-age girl with "confidence" issues, she has improved but not to the point where you'll be convinced that she's really in it to win it.

What do you expect? They're just kiddos.
For them opening acts, McCreery sang "Gone" while Alaina strutt her sexy muscles to the tune of "Flat on The Floor". With this round, Scotty performed effortless while with Lauren - never mind!

Carrie Underwood picked that country thang for our little Lauren - in my dreams? But thanks god, it did wonders for her. On the boys side, Scotty the hottie's presentation of the swagger-full Check... is full of swagger, check it out. Did I just repeat two words here?

And then, here comes the single that these two will shout to the world. In here, there should be a moment. Like, 'a moment like these, because some people wait a lifetime for a moment like these.' Okay that may have rung a bell inside your nutty brains, but what you're about to watch will be forgettable. The moment you poo and wipe your ass with that freakin' tissue paper, i'm telling you you'll forget these two songs.
For Scotty, it's " I Love You This Big." Boy, is his love really that big? JLo would want to see. Ha?!
For Lauren, our dear accent-ed girl knows how to manipulate the votes. I just noticed, she's so clever that's why she chose to do a tribute song for moms, "Like My Mother Does" - hush, because they are the ones who vote more!

So now that we all have feasted on the meat of the fruit, we go to the pulp. Final Verdict. Who's in it to win it? You bet, i was quite surprised that Lauren has the most improvement tonight. She found her niche, during the last part of the competition.
With Scotty, from day one until now, he has it. McCreery sounds like a recording artist,  and he performs like one. Alaina has still some little improvements needed - talk about polishing some fatty edges. Ha?! 
My mind tells me, It's gonna be Haley Scotty. Not unless god will interfere and do miracles with Lauren, like duh! Scotty is the next American Idol.

Scotty McCreery Vs. Lauren Alaina - Who Will Be The Next American Idol?

















Season 10 brings us underage, country singer "accent-ed" contestants in the grand finale.
Lauren Alaina and Scotty McCreery buying for the title of the next "American Idol" Wow.


First, let us analyze their musicality.
Scotty obviously has a deep killer voice. He nails every song that he sings, when he does it low. The problem happens when he tries to reach for the high notes - it does not sound good.
Lauren, our girl with "nerve" issues made it this far. It's her personality, all cute and charming, that made America like her, i guess. With regard to her voice, she has obviously a unique tone, it's sweet but wait until she gets on stage - everything will turn bitter, because she's not sure if she's got it in herself. 

Say one of them wins - which is now inevitable -would Scotty or Lauren have a successful country recording career?I mean, look at Carrie Underwood. Will these two, in any way, walk directly over the path that Carrie has walked on? Or one of them will be like Taylor Hicks, who never experienced stardom after winning the Idol title in 2006.

Them two are young, they can be trained and improved. And my mother would kill me if i continue to bash Scotty because she's a fan. Heck!

So, Who do you think will bag the crown? Would America go for a corny, handsome deep-voiced crooner or with a Georgian  girl -that has some confidence issues- who has got a sweet voice? Share your thoughts...

Who Got Eliminated on Idol? - American Idol, Top 5 Results Show



















Over 60 million votes came in last night, the highest of this season.
Wow.
Ryan Seacrest, in all his formal-suit glory, dropped the iconic phrase, "You might be surprised"
Are we?
Well, if you will base your judgement from the performances yesterday, you'll already have an idea on who'll be sent packing. 

Jimmy Iovine, the hybrid reincarnation of Simon Cowell -minus the English accent- scolded Lauren Alaina for pulling back to belt out the "high" note in Unchained Melody.

Iovine predicted that Alaina will be in the bottom two (B2) this week, he was absolutely right. 
Lauren was joined by Jacob Lusk in the B2 after receiving a 6-point criticism from their mentor, Iovine who said that Lusk had a rough night and both songs that he sang, No Air and Love Hurts, were off. I agree!

So now it's between Lauren and Jacob.

The sixteen-year old Lauren Alaina, her very first time to be in the bottom 2, did not manage to control her emotions. She cried. tears flowed down on her face, it messed up her Greek-goddess make-up and everything...
The result, drum-rolls, America said Jacob Lusk is going home.

Scotty and Lauren Sing "Up On The Roof," Casey and Haley Perform "I Feel The Earth Move" - American Idol Season 10, Top 6, Carole King-Themed Performances

Scotty McCreery and Lauren Alaina Sing "Up On The Roof"
These two contestants have a "distinct" chemistry that makes their duets quite phenomenal - in the past
I just love the fact that Lauren seems at-ease whenever she performs with Scotty, how i wish she could pull off that kind of confidence in her solo performances.
With regard to their duet, i don't think they got it right this time - it fell flat on the floor.








Casey Abrams and Haley Reinhart brought flavor in tonights show with this performance. Seriously, i enjoyed every moment of it. Their husky and cranky voice when combined is pleasing to the ears.
One little comment that i have for this number is there ain't much connection between the two of them - i'm sure they'll work this "issue" out. Ha?

Watch: Casey Abrams Sings "Hi De Ho"
Watch: Haley Reinhart Sings "Beautiful"



These pricks, James Durbin and Jacob Lusk, sang this one just because they need to. LOL!
What do you expect, there will be no chemistry because first of all Durbin isn't gay. 
So the "Broke Back Mountain" connection sh*t that the AI producers are trying to pull off in this performance will not work, OKAY?

Watch: James Durbin Sings "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow"
Watch: Jacob Lusk Sings "Oh No Not My Baby"

Photo: Michael Becker/FOX
Song: Sara Evans, "Born To Fly"
Steven said: "You're so good naturally."
Jennifer said:"You do have such a special voice."
Randy said: "You can sing anything...you can do it. You must believe."

The Mind Slut says: "I am not that convinced. Lauren has to bring the "it," the spunk, that is what she lacks."




Steven Tyler to Casey Abrams, "You're So F*cking Great!"

American Idol, Top 8 Performances: Stefano Langone Proves His Worth; Scotty, Lauren and Casey Hit It Big

It's the movies night on American Idol Season 10. Some performances bill top-notch, while others just settle as supporting casts.

American Idol Top 8 Performance, Photo: Michale Becker/FOX

















Today, the almost eliminated Stefano Langone returns to the Idol stage with a bang. He sings BoyzIIMen hit "End of The Road." Well, clearly, it's not the end for him. He has the key to JLo's house, his emotional performance says it all!


Once labeled "the one man phony," Scotty McCreery does his country trick once more. The 17-year old, North Carolina native sits comfortably on his stool as he sings George Strait's "Cross My Heart." It's not the song that you'd want him to sing, but whatever he does, it hits. His simplicity always captures the audience - everyone gets mesmerized.... and they want more.

Surprise! Lauren Alaina is starting to have that "it." She sings Miley Cyrus' "The Climb," with ease. She even does it better than Hanna Montana herself. Undoubtedly, her star is starting to shine on the show. Let's hope she brings something more next week. Heck! I can see her in the Top 4.



The always weird Casey Abrams does his jazz sh*t while his hands caress a big white cielo. The judges-saved contestant once again "wows" the panel, i wonder if he "wows" the audience. There's this something deep going on inside Casey, his artistry just pours out whenever he does something (imagine he choses to ignore Jimmy Ivine's song suggestion.) Find out tomorrow if America will appreciate what he does on the show today.

What about the others?

Paul McDonald's did his best, but i think he'll be in the bottom 3. Other than his fancy suit, what he sang was too kareoke for me.
Jacob Lusk sang dramatically awesome, i am not sure if he's got enough fans to put him through the eliminations tomorrow. God help him.
Haley Reinhart rocked the house. But what she has done, its quiet forgettable, i am crossing my fingers, i don't know if she's gonna be safe anymore.
James Durbin, with all that shrieking and shouting, i guarantee, he'll be spared from tomorrow's elimination.
