It's Baaaack!
I missed a couple of seasons, but I followed the last few pretty closely. I love, love, love the audition portion of the show and am repeatedly shocked when strange looking, stranger sounding people are appalled and angered at their rejections from the judges. Scattered thoughts about the new season:
- Kara Dioguardi, the fourth judge, definitely adds a little something with her almost attitude...not as mean as Simon (yet), not as cuddly as Paula (probably never), and not a name dropper like Randy (again...yet). I like her (I think).
- Simon needs to stick to black T-shirts...white is not his hue.
- I love Paula's funky glasses.
- Some contestants truly make me cringe.
- Two contestants stand out to me...blonde, crazy bright blue eyes, bartender, 25, can't remember her name...sang "Sittin' by the Dock of the Bay" song and the blind genius named Alex who sang Billy Joel (one of my favs); they've already got my vote.

I was half arsed watching tonight, but I did write one chick's name down. Here it is, as best I can phonetically spell it - Arianna Asfar. I was just listening, and not looking, at the time she sang.
At the end of her performance, when the judges were critiquing her, I caught a glimpse. She had a beautiful face. She did get the golden flyer, but is only sixteen, which makes me wonder how far she will go.
I'm a fan of AI, and glad it's back on the telly.
I beleive that you have to pay attention to the name of the show. It is "American Idol". So therefore, you have to consider all things and not just singing ability. Looks, Attitude, apperance and so forth. Therefore no freaks, spoiled brats and no "Fat Slobs". If it is to be chosen on singing alone, then they should change the name to "America's best singer"
Where'd you go, 'Lit? Miss ya!
