I am curious to see what Shakira and Usher bring to the show.
I actually really like them, but I was not a Christina fan. And Cee-Lo's outfits always seemed more entertaining than he did, to me.
Usher is sweet and very smooth, and Shakira is sort of adorable. And Adam and Blake seem to be welcoming them very enthusiastically.
Speaking of which, my crushes on Adam *and* Blake continue unabated.
Oh, my roommate and I were confused also, but when she googled she said it was the U-Turn (?) being at a downed fighter plane?
That makes more sense than the song thing.
The Voice: Yay. Too soon and everything. That's all.
So far I like the new judges' team. Shakira impressed me more than I thought she would.
Thanks for the U-Turn link -- that explains that, and I'm glad they made things right. I suppose it's partly being in the Vietnamese-local context, where directions are like "turn right at the B-52 wreckage" because after all these years, it's part of their national landscape.
Fuck, I love the Voice blind auditions! It's so nice that everyone's good, even though everyone doesn't make it. And I like that they give specific feedback.
I love this part of the show.
I'm pretty sure I say this every season, but it's STILL TRUE.
Usher loves everyone! It's awesome. I love this part of the show, too.
My reality TV singing competition show worlds are colliding. John Peter Lewis . . . the JPL! Goofy/annoying contestant from S3 American Idol and now adorably goofy and hopefully no longer annoying half of Midas Whale. And he speaks fluent Spanish. Good, good times. I kinda wish they'd picked Shakira so that they could just confound Blake during a big old coaching session/group sing with Cathia.
Still enjoy this show sooo much. Even the "bad" auditioners are better than Zoanette from this season's AI who almost made top 10! Crazy.
And I love Shakira and Usher as new judges. When Shakira mocked the leg cocked up on the chair, patented Usher sexy pose? I died. They are delightful.
