I'm pretty sure I say this every season, but it's STILL TRUE.
Honestly, you meet the most appalling sort of people....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Because books.
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.

Oh hey, speaking of Idol. Remember Naima? My sister was showing me some cell phone video of one of her recent concerts and it looks fun as hell. Very sort of afro-cuban-world music kind of thing. We may go see her again next month.

And I just read yesterday that Crystal Bowersox is going to play Patsy Cline on Broadway this summer!

That is one thing that Idol seems to have over the Voice. The Idol kids work after the show, even the ones that don't win. I have no idea what happened to S1 winner Javier or S2 winner Jermaine from The Voice and both of them could really sing, let alone anyone else from the show. I'd love to see The Voice get their own Kelly Clarkson, or heck, even their own Ruben would be better than what the winners have done thus far.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
TAR: My favorite team was eliminated because they did not get their asses into gear.
They were clearly struggling with the other task, too. But I didn't see any blame-throwing or excuses, and they were gracious on the mat.
I couldn't believe that Nashville Blonde #1 resorted to the "depending on the kindness of strangers" maneuver.

It seemed like they were really kind of stuck on that one though, if the police would not let them both leave. (I'm assuming there is a TAR rules reason that the other partner could not head in to town on her own.)
I did not understand the [losing team's] attitude. Not at the end - they were very gracious and sane about the whole thing. But after ditching the first task so quickly, then on the second task it didn't even really seem like they were paying much attention. Even on the second time through.

I was wondering why the newlyweds had pula when the blondes didn't, unless they just didn't show them having to get the money changed.
I liked Pam and Winnie but they did seem to be in leisurely mode yesterday. Still loving the hockey guys, too. They're so good-natured! And they're having so much fun!
