American Idol Grapevine
As youll see in the MyIdol Message Board statements below, the girls came out last night with their game faces onwith a few exceptions. There are a lot of varying opinions on the boards, but thats what makes them fun. Have something to add? Do so by starting a thread or writing a recap in MyIdol. If we like your fan recap, we might even use it as our official Americanidol.com show recap. Or we might just use a sentence or two to spread the word in our Idol Grapevine. Either way, we want to know your take on every Idol thing!
Stephanie Edwards sings Dangerously in Love by Beyonce (or Destinys Child, whichever you prefer). She gets serious props for singing a hard, hard song. The rhythms of that song are crazy. I think its a bold choice, and she does a decent job. "claena
Melinda Doolittle-Her voice is mesmerizing, she looks stunning, and she is humble almost to perfection! That was the single best American Idol performance to date. Melinda is in a totally different league. "jaduck
Antonella Barba - Dedication: her brother - Song: Because You Love Me - I really do not understand why this girl continues to try to sings songs that are just too big for her. The arrangement was awful and she came off sounding off-key and pitchy. Her only saving grace was the big note she hit which surprised me. "crislovesmusic
Leslie Hunt- Still loving this quirkerifically wonderful nerdy girl. She's so adorable. It was interesting seeing the same song done so differently form A.J.'s, whose version I loved. My two favorite underdogs, A.J. and Leslie...sigh. If only both could make it to the top twelve...or even the top ten so they could tour. "FanofTrouble
Jordin Sparks " My Reflection - I really like this girl. She has passion, heart, a great set of pipes, an infectious smile and she has not hit her "stride" yet. Watch out for this one-she will amaze us before this competition is over. "nhdavej
Lakisha Jones-In the words of Paula Abdul, she's just "real awesome. And apparently, shes quite the linguist. Who knew that "place" could be turned into a ten-syllable word? Impressive. She showed a bit more personality tonight and, while her performance might not have been the show-stopper that she gave last week, she was great. -Floresta
Haley "Queen of the Night" Scarnato. Can't wait to marry your fianc? What's stopping you? Go now. Please. Pretty Please. "Icoffman
Alaina Alexander - Identity Crisis #2 - Is she country? Is she rock? Is she something yet to be defined? While the verse of the song was far better than the chorus, most of the song was off pitch, the words were unintelligible, and I thought it was a complete mess. I have no idea who this gal is musically, and this performance was unfortunately forgettable. "NENA
Gina Glocksen: Let me start out by saying that this was an excellent song choice for her. It really showcases that "part rocker, part belter" vibe that has gotten her this far. The song started out good and ended great and, despite what Simon says, I think she is one of the few singers in this competition who knows who she is on stage. "BellaVoce188
SABRINA SLOAN - "He Fills Me Up" by Whitney Houston - I really like Sabrina...she has a great look, and her voice is really very good...when she isn't screaming. Most of the song was ok, but when she got to the power notes, she forced them too much, and ended up shouting the song in places. "karledan
