Idol Recap

Alright, so Latin Night is painful as ever. A brief recap because to be honest, I just finished watching the show on DVR three minutes ago and I can't remember half the songs.

First, predictions...
I think this week they do bottom two, and that'll be Phil and Haley. Phil is gone. Haley's legs will keep her around for another week. Lakisha could be in trouble this week actually because the others have just enough redeeming qualities (or insanity) to capture the hearts of the voters.

Some random thoughts...
1) There is no way humanly possible for Melinda to sing a song sexily. Is it possible she's a virgin? This was running through my mind during her performance. Probably shouldn't have been, but she consistently does a great job of looking like Tina Turner at age 27.

2) Paula should just stop saying "you look gorgeous" to Lakisha, because it's really code for "despite your huge girth, our wardrobe designers managed to do something to make you look slightly less like Shamu." And seriously... we were very close to a wardrobe malfunction today with Lakisha and her G-cups. Nothing as good as a close up of the back fat bulging out of that shirt. I'm mean tonight, aren't I?

3) Jordin just continues to do well. I called it in this spot many weeks ago, but she's the winner I think for all the reasons I've stated already. Melinda and Lakisha will split votes if they both make it that far, and Jordin is somebody who everyone can love.

4) He did it again... this time Chris made Santana and Rob Thomas sound like Justin Timberlake. But the judges liked it. Interesting. Is it any surprise that this guy's former professional career has included manager of a Hooters? He is total and complete white trash. He's KFed who sings like J.T.

5) They definitely had Haley in a pair of Hooters hot shorts tonight. That's the only place they could've gotten things that short. I guess Chris' former employer came through. I wonder if the camera guys drew numbers to see who would be the lucky one to get to do that slow close up ranging up her body.

6) Sanjaya actually wasn't that bad. How scary is that? Of course, the song wasn't in English.

That's all for now. Maybe when I get more rest I'll add other thoughts. But my projected bottom two are Haley and Phil with Phil going bye-bye.

I think this is the surprise week. LaKisha had the bad luck of going early on a forgettable night. She gave a forgettable performance. Haley might have just bought enough votes with her legs (quick, tell me how she is different from Charo) and Phil, I thought, actually did very well.

I'm developing a crush on Jordin. I would feel bad about it, since she's 17 or 18 and all, but she looks so much older.

I considered voting for Chris R. just because he's the first ever Idol contestant to thank his drummer and guitarist right after the performance.

Sanjaya really did not suck at all tonight. Might the Vote for the Worst and Howard Stern crowd not feel the urge to vote this week?

I've got to disagree. If anything, Haley is getting LESS attractive as time goes by. Did you see the sans-makeup shots of her with J-Lo?! BWRAAHAHHH! The short-shorts were good, but she's not hot enough to get by on the hot-vote alone.

By the way...I hate myself for knowing all of this.

Definitely the most boring episode so far this year. I think Lakisha is safe because she did a well known song and sang it pretty well. I actually thought this was one of Haley's better performances, but she's still nowhere near as good as the top few.

Take it for what it's worth, but DialIdol has LaKisha in last. It should be getting more accurate as the numbers get whittled down.

Only Blake is completely safe according to them.
