as uve read, i honestly do not think that la toya is what america needs. shes an extremely good singer, dont get me wrong, but i think sum1 even more fantastic would be fantasia, (who i absolutely adore) jon peter or jasmine. la toya only stands apart from the others when she sings. but what about the rest?
oh and i lurve camille!

I think Latoya is probably "The Best" and seems like a nice person, but I don't find her that interesting. She sings "big" songs in a glossy, professional way, and although it comes off sounding great, to me it seems too samey.
I'd prefer the winner to be someone who grows throughout the comp, does things in a unique style, or even or cocks up a couple of times. I just find that more endearing that someone who swoops in, does a great performance, and walks out.

I have a feeling that LaToya's suffering from the Paulini Syndrome - she's just abit too good and not quirky enough for the masses to relate to. Is she wants to win, she'll have to develop some eccentric habit. Banana suit, anyone?  |

What was with that video thing they made? I can't remember them doing anything like that on Australian Idol. Do they do one of them every week?  Speakings of the video, how bloody bad was Jennifer at lip synching! Gahhhh!  The only thing that saved that video was the banana suit! |

mmm, i saw Oprah when she interviewed the AI2 idols and they said filming a new commercial every week was really tiring and took time they didn't have...sorta like how guy said doing the 'activity' (like climbing the opera house) for each ep of Inside Idol was sorta tiring...
but it's fun to watch!! hahaha
*selfish*

Is it just me or are the american contestants really really good?! When i watched the show on Sun night i was blown away by quite a few of them. Latoya and Fanastia are very good, i like Jasmin and Diana even more, they have exceptionally good voices for girls who are still so young! i also really love George, he's great! Even John Peter's voice is pretty good, when he sings and doesn't dance at the same time! i also like the other john, purly for the reason that he is abit different to everyone else. The only 2 that didn't really do it for me the other night were Leah and Matt. Amy and Camille didn't do that well either, but i think they could both improve with time as they stay in the comp, as they both have good voices.

Amy and Camille didn't do that well either, but i think they could both improve with time as they stay in the comp, as they both have good voices. Bella Bella, that's what I thought too! Fantasia is superb, LaToya is already practically professional and I adore George and Camile who are both rough around the edges but have beautiful voices. Diana is exactly what Paula said she was - a brilliant star. And Jennifer has an amazing voice too They're very stylistically different in sound as well- Fantasia is funk LaToya is contemporary diva George is old-school gospel Camile is hip hop Diana is pop John is golden oldies Amy is pop crooner (like Celine Dion) And the rest I can't really classify. |
