I want to disclose that AmericanIdol.com is officially on my Top 10 most visited websites. 
Pathetic? Maybe...

Moving on:
Re-Cap: Who went home last week?
Unfortunately Miss Karen went home. She was bi-lingual, sweet, pretty... but I wasn't disappointed about this because she wasn't the best contestant but she was certainly better than Naimi.  

I would say this means: Miss Mallory had nearly perfect predictions last week. 


Thoughts & Predictions
Thoughts
Casey Abrams
This guy is so weird. I honestly wouldn't vote for him, simply because he's not my cup of tea (Not to mention my sister, Allison, kinda ruined it for me when she said Casey seems like the kind of guy who would sneak a camera into the girls bathroom) But I like his style, he's unique... but, a little too harry. 
Haley Reinhart
I know most people don't agree with me when I say this but I like her! I do! She's cute and smiles a lot. She reminds me of a little cub bear who tries to be really scary and intimate other animals but really is just harmless. She wants to be Christina but she's simply not good enough. And I've gotta admit, it was super entertaining last week when she smeared her "sexy" red lipstick all over her face!!
Lauren Alaina
I'm getting frustrated with Lauren because I feel like she's got the talent of "The one and only Miss Kelly Clarkson" but she doesn't take advantage of her skills!!! I wish she would sing what Haley sings because Haley's got the attitude and awesome song choices, but lacks the talent.
She should sing Christina... Kelly... that type.
 I'm still on Team Lauren but I'm gonna need more from her next week or else I will have to move on and pick a new favorite girl. COME ON LAUREN! 
Paul McDonald
He's becoming one of my top favs. I prefer someone with pipes but he's got such cool sound to him I could totally drive in my car and listen to his CD. (only if my OprahRadioXM isn't working, of course) I seriously would like to see him make it to the top 5. I think he's got a lot of talent.
Thia Megia
She's adorable but I would never vote for her. Let's be honest, she's not gonna win. Just because she's got a good voice doesn't make her entertaining or a good performer. Kinda boring.
Jacob Lusk
Wow. I'm callin' it: Winner! 
That's all I'm gonna say.


Pia Toscano
I don't argue with the fact that she's good... but where's her personality? Her perfectionist nature annoys me. However, after she preformed I told Brad she lacked personality and he told me I was probably jealous because she's hot. There might be something to that but whatever.

Naima Adedapo
Dear Lord, please save me from this torture of watching her sing any more! Amen!
No... actually since she's made it this far she might as well make it one more week so she can go on the Top 10 tour this summer so she doesn't have to go back to cleaning toilets. Maybe it's the social worker in me talking but...
Besides, she at least is super entertaining with that crazy-ass, ridiculous dancing!

Scotty McCreery
Or Scotty McCreepy?? Something weirds me out about him and NOT in a good way! Poor guy had to sing MoTown with a hideous country slang. Urg. I'm sure he's got some cowboys rooting for him but... woof woof.

Stefano Langone
What a freakin' cutie. He is surprisingly theatrical but he does bore me a little. Luckily he's cute enough that he'll go through. I appreciate how he looks like he's really trying. Ooo I just wanna pinch those little cheeks! (weird... he's like 22 years old)

James Durbin
I think my attention span failed me at this point. I don't remember anything that he did cool but I do remember a standing ovation. I think I missed something. 

Predictions
1. Haley
2. Naimi
3. Thia

It's St. Patrick's Day!
Some people might attend a parade,
Drink green beer,
and shout HURRAY!

The expectations are simple,
wear green of any type,
Do an Irish dance, wear a kilt, and play bagpipes.

It's a day we pretend we're all Irish,
We go on drinking bingers and call in sick,
Most importantly,
A day to appreciate gingers.

Now get your party pants on,
for the day has come,
Let's celebrate,
and have some IRISH fun!!


Now let's talk about something serious: American Idol.
I am simply going to give my predictions for who is going home because unfortunately I cut my finger last night attempting to cook and it's difficult to type. So here we go: 
Bottom 3: (in order of who is most likely to go home)
Naimi Adedapo
If she doesn't go home, I quit. URG I can't stand her!!
Karen Rodrigous
Thia Megia
HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!!

U + Me = Us

A typical Sunday night... catching up on Dr. Phil, researching stuff for school, binge eating on goldfish, and I fortunately ran across this video on youtube:



HAHA Ohh gosh, what a stupid song. I could just imagine what adults were thinking when that song came out in 2000. "Kids these days... they don't know good music."


But now we're in 2011 and I think we can all agree we thank God for Justin Bieber!!
Yeah... I wasn't being sarcastic. 
I love Justin Bieber. 
Props to Will and Jada Smith! Their son, Jaden Smith, is paired in this video with the Bieber. Not to mention, their daughter, Willow Smith, has a smokin' hit "Whip my hair" I LOVE this girl, she's hilarious. Here's a taste of her music.
Did I mention she's opening for Justin Bieber on his tour this year? 
Not bad for a 10 year old. 

THE BACHELOR
On a completely different note... tomorrow night is the final rose.
Emily
Chantal

             This prediction is easy: Emily's got it in the bag.

In Case You Missed It: 
1. Who went through?  
Guys: James, Casey, Jacob, Scotty, Paul, and Stefano*
Girls: Lauren, Pia, Haley, Karen, Thia, Ashton* and Naimi**
*The judges chose 3 additional contests to go through who America did not vote in the Top 10.  
**I still am not a fan, I don't care how good her voice is... puh-lease!! No Kelly Clarkson!!!

2. What does this mean?  
I rule. I'd say so far so good on Miss Mallory's nearly perfect predictions from last week. Boo-Ya

Thoughts & Predictions
Thoughts:
Lauren Alaina
I'd like to see her really rip it out more, more, MORE
But seriously... tell me you don't love this girl. 
I.DARE.YOU
Casey Abrams
What a corky man. I like him. (Allison, I know you think he might be the type to put a camera in the girls bathroom  BUT...) You can't deny the talent. 
Sore on the eyes? Yes.
Talented? Yes.
Ashton Jones
Ashton- I have liked her because of the "uh" and "yeah" tid bits she does when she sings
Paul McDonald
I swear this guy is hiding his british accent. Doesn't he just seem like he would fit right in there? Maybe it's the skinny jeans.
Pro: unique and relaxing voice 
Con: on the verge of boring. I hope he can play an instrument... and get a fashion stylist, pronto. 
Pia Toscano
Okay, I admit it... she's a lot better than I thought at first. I'll say it, she's more than just a pretty face. I've joined the Pia bandwagon.

James Durbin
His vocals are undeniable. I repeat, UNDENIABLE. I appreciated his song choice this week because he didn't try to over-do it, for the first time... ever. He's got skills. We all know it. 
Now he just needs to work on getting us to like his personality--his picture even kind of annoys me. Thank god he's actually good.
Haley Reinhart
I love this girl!!! She's talented, i'm telling you!! Girls like her. Dudes like her.
I'm jealous she yodel's and makes it sexy...
I'm jealous she has the hippie-chiq look I've always aspired to have.
Jacob Lusk
I had to watch this performance twice. Once by myself (as usual) and the second to bring my dad in to enjoy the performance, too.
He sang "I Believe I can Fly" better than R.Kelly ever could... hands down.
Natural talent. 
Not one male vocalist has ever impressed me more than him.
Wow. Amazing.
Thia Megia
 (sucks following Jacob... I must give her props)
She's adorable. She's young. She's Asian.
Great demeanor about her. I wish all 16 year olds were this mature.
I still need more from her.



Stefano Langone
He gets voted the "Most underrated" 
I just want to hug him. Good job, Stefano!



Karen Rodriguez
Bridget-this takes me back to 6th grade!!
I love that she sang Salina!! It was perfect! I think I'm biased because I love the song so much.
Good singer + good looks + speaks spanish = votes. 
On the negative side, she's not the best of this competitive group. I like her though.

Scott McCreery
Predictable. And who did his hair tonight? Ick! 
My mom said it creeps her out when he looks into the camera. Haha!
Born to sing country music, is right! No doubt!

Naima Adedapo
Blah. I don't like her. I get that she's kind of unique but puh-lease. 
I'm gonna be nice: she's not my cup of tea.

___________________________________________________________________________________
Prediction
It's time: Who's going home?
Blah



If by a miracle (or bad taste of voters) Naima doesn't go home. I predict Miss Ashton Jones.

Kim Kardashian's singing career...

...has the world CRINGING!!!!


Yes, it's true. Little miss fancy pants, Kim Kardashian, is apparently going to attempt a singing career now.

I haven't really figured out what exactly she really does for living but I describe her as superwoman taking over the entertainment/social industry 

Pretty? Yes.    
Talented? Not so much.
Kim's singing is worse than Heidi Montag and Paris Hilton's pathetic attempts... combined.  
See below for clarification:
The poor singing attempt from Paris
+
The poor singing attempt from Heidi

=
Extra poor singing attempt from Kim

She might actually have a chance at success for this ONLY because she already has a solid fan base of youngsters who have not yet learned what a quality, good singer really is.
... and yes, Britney Spears does qualify has a good singer. So seriously, my standards are not that high.

Lastly, I have to give her props for donating a portion of her proceeds from her music to St. Jude's Children's Hospital. 

You can listen to a part of her song here. But I warned you!!
