That guy Norman would be good in an off-Broadway show. He's pretty funny at times. Did you here him say "karate kick" to Simon after he threw a kick at him? That was funny! Not a great singer but he doesn't totally suck. Definitely should not have been put through. It was done for the ratings.

Thing is when Nick/Norman sings as Nick he's awesome he just loves performing as Norman more I guess.
BTW I don't think that Norman was being rude or a jerk with his banter towards the judges. I think that's just another extension of his Norman character which that's all it is is just a character. What I've seen of Nick he seems to be a pretty decent guy.
Now I just have to remember to record tonight's show since it's running opposite from Survivor. Then it's off to Hell's Kitchen.

That guy on Hell's Kitchen, needs someone to crack him in the head with a frying pan.
Well...on American Idol, your suppose to be you- not a "character", it isn't an acting competition, so that doesn't makes sense to be someone else. I just don't get that.

From what I've heard Gordon Ramsey is actually a very nice guy who is fun to hang out with outside of the kitchen and when the cameras aren't rolling. Besides some of the people he screams at probably deserve it. These people claim to be so great in the kitchen yet suck royally on the show. Like Colleen from this season she gives cooking lessons and charges $300 yet she couldn't cook rice. Giovanni is an executive chef in a steakhouse and last week had steak after steak sent back because they were cooked improperly.
I just found out one thing about Jesse Langseth one of last night's performers on American Idol; the one that sang "Bette Davis Eyes". She has a famous brother, none other than the awesome blues guitarist Jonny Lang. So in other words she's lived in North Dakota.

We had a character in the first season of Australian Idol back in 2003. Courtney Act was a "gender illusionist" (in other words, a drag act), but she was very very good and just missed out on a spot in the Top 10. She has gone on to have some success in the charts, and is a popular touring artist.

The Hell's Kitchen guy ...is a maniac...I just watched the previews after Idol- and he threw food at someone. Why is that necessary- your talking about cooking dinner. I watched what they were cooking, and it was easy stuff...my gosh ...they can't multi task, worth a hoot.
I cook breakfast for 6-10 people on the weekends...I make at least 4-5 things, I am the waitress, the hostess, the cook, the bus-person, and its not hard...I talk to people the whole time. There's no reason to make things that darn complicated.
.......
On Idol- I think they will bring Meagan back, for a second chance- I thought she'd beat out Chris.
I heard Paula say that it does not work having a 4th judge.....but it's the executives of the show that did that.
Tonight Kara and Simon got in to it a little bit. I hope they dump her.

I hope they bring back Megan, Jasmine and Matt G from tonight and they just might bring back Norman/Nick for entertainment purposes.
I'm really surprised that Kriss made it just as I was surprised that Michael made it from last week.
Some of my favourites on next weeks show are Jorge, Taylor and Lil

I liked Kris (I think I'm in the minority here LOL) and Adam, so I was happy about them. I'll be honest--there aren't many female singers that I actually like...I like male singers better. So I usually pull for guys in AI (Carrie was the exception...liked Kellie Pickler too).

I think Lil Rounds was the best tonight, I think she will definately be one of the finalists.

Lil was the best. She's been one of my favourites from the beginning. The guys I figure will be between Scott and Jorge with a slight chance of Ju'not moving on.
What I can't figure out is all the time they spent on Nathaniel.

I liked Lil' Rounds also. She was awesome. I also really liked Ju'Not. I hope he moves on. I can't figure out the Nathaniel thing either Sam. He's just annoying to me.

I liked Felicia too, and I also don't get how Nathaniel is still there-I thought he got the boot awhile ago.
I missed how Felicia got brought back. I thought that they haven't picked any wild cards, so I thought that everyone that was eliminated was gone for good until next week.
I didn't like Ju'Not. I have never heard that song "Hey Deliah" before now, now I have heard it sang on this show at least 3 or 4 times already, and it isn't even a good song.
I think it will come down between Danny and Lil.
They both have a touching life story too, and out of most of them- they seem the most appreciative.
I can't remember the Spanish guy's name, but that was kind of emotional...why were they making him lose his accent? Like Simon said, he's Spanish...he only has an accent to people who don't speak Spanish...and this is the United States, so what was that all about?
I still hate the songs they pick to sing.
There are so many really great songs out there, and they never pick any of them.

Felicia was brought back because contestant Joanna Paccitti who qualified for the final 36 was found to be ineligible because she had a previous recording contract. I posted about it a couple weeks ago already.
The Puerto Rican's name is Jorge
I'm sure they're all picking songs that they personally like. All the songs they pick are great. The problem is that a lot of them pick songs that don't fit their particular singing style so they come across as being bad.

i thought this group was way better than the others but wow, everyone is so pitchy when they sing.
lil rounds was just ok to me, but she was the best one of all of them. i cannot get into this season's singers for some reason. hopefully that will change.

Me too Ronnie--I was so into it last year, what with Cook, Michael Johns, Castro, Carly...they were good. This year--meh, I guess they still have a ways to go.

I can not believe they picked Tatiana as a wild card, why? why? why?
She is self absorbed. She's just going to get voted off anyway.
I do not like how they did the selecting this time- I don't remember it being like this before.
