24 year old nanny who doesn't drink or smoke.

She's cute!
Singing is good.

Hollywood will eat her alive unless she stays on her toes...I would like to see her make it but I have my doubts.....Then again she is a Nanny so only time will tell...

She was okay, I just didn't find anything remarkable about the contestant.

If she makes it to the top 24 though, she'll rack in votes from the conservative crowd- which is pretty big in Idol votes.

Pretty decent performance. I like her. Not one of the top 3, but pretty good. She's quite endearing too.

I think walking on sunshine would rub Simon the wrong way. He already thinks she's too sun shiney. That song would push him over the edge.

She looks like a TV actress. If this doesn't work out for her she should get into acting.

He must be going through withdrawls from holding the nasty comments in for so long. The Bush Monkey comment he made last year kept him on his toes during the auditions but this is where he draws the line. He feels he now has to be nasty. He seems to really need to belittle people. It's one thing to tell them their song choice or their singing skills are weak but he just goes on and on and on and on. People that have been on this show and lost must be much stronger people for having lived it. Can't imagine taking those comments infront of millions of people.

The thing is, in this business, one must endure terrible critisism. It comes with the territory. If a person cannot handle it, they shouldn't be in showbiz. Simon is pretty honest most of the time, and sometimes the honesty is pretty mean. It doesn't change it's truth though. That kid DID look like a bushbaby, but Simon really didn't need to tell him that. He should have just told him he couldn't sing well enough. When he told Luke (I think it was him) that he was forgetable and that no one would ever admit they were forgettable, that was super mean, but totally true! He is mean, but most of these people are way too sensitive, and all of the viewers are. Way worse is being said to people who are in a recording studio right now, legit artists with contracts and fanbases. Don't feel too badly for these people. This is what they signed up for. it is just worth noticing that Simon has progressed from pretty nice to downright cruel in the last few weeks.

Simon is right on the money, for the most part, critiquing a performance but then he goes too far on the cruelty at times. I have no idea about the music business but if they get ridiculed on their looks then that's pitiful. I could see someone saying you need to lose weight or dress sharper, change your hair but to make hideous remarks about your god given body/looks then that is sick.

Well, sex and beauty sell. Unattractive people seldom go far in showbiz. Painful honesty is neccessary sometimes for deluded people who will never make it and will instead be ridiculed. It is just the way it is, regardless of whether it is nice or fair.

In acting, it can happen, because of character acting. Have you ever seen Buscemi cast as a leading man? No, because he is type cast as a character part in every movie because he isn't conventionally attractive.

Look around. Most celebs in main stream pop culture are very attractive.

simon is in a real bad mood, I agree... I am not surprised because he wanted kyle in but was out voted by randy and paula, and so now he is not going to be too polite... (should have let kyle in- should have let kyle in)

X1TX
02-21-2008, 03:07 PM
Well, it's not like Simon doesn't have the means to sign Kyle up and make an album with him if he wanted.

I still say Brooke needs to sing "Walking on Sunshine" and we can all watch Simon self immolate on live TV. Either that or he'll lose his concentration and morph back into his natural self as El Chupacabra................

I think someone has sung that song before and maybe it was on CDN Idol? It wasn't well received. It's way too cutesy. I can almost feel that El Chpacabra snapping at my toes just discussing it.

X1TX
02-21-2008, 03:26 PM
Perhaps. I was just hoping to see Simon either burst into flames or morph into El Chupacabra on live TV. It would be a ratings bonanza for Fox.

true, simon could sign kyle up, but he is used to getting his own way and I think he is mad at randy and paula for not letting kyle in.

This was only the first week.... I think sometime in the third or fouth week, Simon will burst into flames and reveal his true el chupacabra identity, expecially if Danny sings the Partridge song, 'I Think I Love You.'

X1TX
02-21-2008, 03:47 PM
KD has a phenomenal voice. So does Brother Lyle. Of course, I admire Lyle because he is a fellow motorcyclist, a fellow Texan, and was married to Julia Roberts. Love some of the stuff he did with his "Large Band".

No, he should sing the theme song from their TV show.....THAT would do it!

you are right! Simon wanted Kyle. Kyle could have really improved had he be given the opportunity. He did have potential. It would be suicide for Danny to sing that Partridge Family song but man it would be funny. Too bad they can't play a practical joke on Simon and have him sing it for him.

it was silly not let kyle in... why not?? he had a great voice! I am not surprised that simon is nit picking on every little thing.....may be danny could sing 'I am a day dream believer' instead.

how about the three judges are sitting at the table. all of a sudden, randy and paula walk over to the stage and start singing 'breaking up is hard to do.'

sinon sits alone at the table..... his eyes start to glow.... sparks fly from his hair- all if a sudden a terrific explosion is heard.... the water sprinklers are activated, the entire audience is drenched... ryan suddenly comes on the stage and says that he is sorry, but the rest of the show is canceled!!

Best performance of the night. I loved it. Simon will say she is not a rocker and it wasn't the right song for her is my prediction.

Edit I am glad to say I was wrong but I was kind of right because Simon only liked it because it wasn't done as rock n roll as the original.

One way to test your rating of a contestant is to ask who you look forward to seeing and hearing and which ones you dread. Among the girls I expect interesting, professional performances from Brooke and Smithson. Not so sure about the others.
