American Idol 2013

Dial Idol says Angie is likely going home and Kree will beat out Candice. Seems reversed to me based on songs given & performances. Nicki has gotten so predictable with her opening remarks that I really impressed my wife with announcing how Nicki would start with Candy Girl & Kreedom praises before she started talking. I had it down virtually word for word. I even had Mariah's "Dawling" right on cue. Candice got the "Pimp Spot" with a "Pimp Song" but she did deserve the surprisingly only standing ovation from the judges. The person I'd most like to spend money to see perform would be Angie but it won't bother me what the pecking order is at this point.

Did you notice "Haley" was mentioned last night along with Nikki? Yes Candice Glover Day was proclaimed by the Governor of South Carolina and her Name displayed was "Nikki Haley"

I may be biased but I thought considering all odds against her, Haley had the best Hometown Celebration ever. The 30,000 that turned out in the pouring cold rain to see Haley & Midnight perform at Arlington and many drenched fans along her parade route & Village Hall was a true testiment to her starpower. No rain on this season's top 3 and other than Angie's crowd the events for all three seemed weaker than normal.

If Kree wins it must be the same power voting demogaraphic that voted for Scotty and Lauren and I'd say that they weren't being influenced much by the judges because in recent weeks they've been pretty rough on Kree.

It would be really nice this year if the the best vocalist-the best pure singer- won.Idol may not be all about that and nothing else but how often does it actually happen-at least in recent years.
It didn't happen last year and it didn't happen the year before.It didn't happen Lambert's year and it didn't happen Melinda's year.This year should belong to Candice Glover.

I think Carrie was the last time the best pure vocalist won.

And I think the only other time the best vocalist won was Kelly's year.

Funny how when America gets it right, the winners become superstars.

Interesting-never stopped to think about that one before.

anyone hear anything about Season 10 Pia Tascano performing at the Idol finale? Her twitter site seems to point in that direction.

Well, let's hope America gets it right this year (go Candice!) and that your observation becomes a tradition that continues!

Wow..Lauren grew up.

Fun song too.

Nashvill and such has changed her. She is full speed ahead into the game. Good for her.

Wow, I didn't expect that. Good for idol fans.
