idol5 (4 > 3)
Tonight was weird. Simon chastised Katharine for the bad arrangement - as if she wrote it, duh. (When he says stuff like that, is he actually addressing the producers or talking to hear himself speak or trying to stimulate sympathy votes or what....?) Anyway, DialIdol amazingly shows Chris in last place (which is fine for me cuz I'd boot him because he yells and screams way too much and probably already has a contract with Fuel or someone). Indeed, his voice was reedy and shaking. As for Katharine, the key she sang in at the taped session with Matolla - where she sounded torchy and interesting - changed a whole lot higher and screechier for the show. (Maybe the producers want her to go? Did she look so sad because she was told to lose? Who's a cynic and a conspiracy theorist . . . who???) Joker's Updates says Matolla is starting his own label. He's kinda creepy but he knows talent and the only one whose voice he complimented was Katharine (in the lower register, of coruse) but Joker's thinks he was wooing Chris. Taylor gets points for keeping his hair gray and sticking to his own antics despite Simon's disdain but it does get a bit tiresome although his upbeat-ness is fun. Elliott has grown by leaps and bounds but he's so boring; could he attract ticket-buyers in the thousands? Even randy Randy and poopie Paula couldn't work up much enthusiasm for anyone. Sending Katharine home would be a big mistake for ratings, I think, cuz an all-boy final would be boring as heck. (And, by the way, what was with the three-piece suits???)
Update: Amazing. I am amazed. DialIdol nailed it and my choice for who went home was met. The apparently 'chosen one' is off. My guess is he didn't really want to win because he prefers to be a rocker and figured AI isn't the hip cool thing to win so he'll be off to Fuel or Matolla before we can say end of summer. Why else the sudden nice dressy jacket and awfully calm face when it was announced? So onward - it's an actual contest now.
