PROOF OF AMERICAN IDOL FRAUD!!!!

This is the second year in a row that American Idol has had a songwriting contest. Since the contest ended last year I've researched the contestants from last year and this year....FYI there were over 25,000 entries last year at $10.00 for each song. 20 songs were then chosen out of the 25,000 for an online vote. The winner's song is then performed on the American Idol Finale. The problem I have is that one of THIS years Top 20 Finalist is a Co-writer of LAST years Top 20 Winner.

Somebody from American Idol has some explaining to do.

THERE IS A LOT, LOT, LOT MORE!!!!!

I thought Archie's performance was yawn-inducing. And oh, the lip-licking at the end!! Doesn't he re-watch his performances and know to stop?

I want to be more excited about this final-three-competition than I am. Why bother caring when I know what will happen? Carly would shake this shit up.

Most importantly, I thought I saw Emily Van Camp from Everwood in the audience.

Here's a list of the small atrocities Diane Warren has victimized the radio-listening public with (not all bad, but mostly so): [en.wikipedia.org]

@sicksteanein: I'll watch it, if only because it got some of the right-wing fundies whining about it promoting the "gay agenda" because of a penguin being told that it's okay that he's different.

@Chris Molanphy: Didn't Diane Warren write a song (or two) for Tiffany? If she did, then she totally deserves a bird-flipping for that alone!

Simon Cowell is the only one who can actually pull off sounding like he believes the critiques he’s giving people. Paula is just nuts, and the show needs her just for that, but Randy is beyond blandly horrid in every aspect of his being.

@brasstax:

"I thought Syesha's "Fever" was just fine, especially the little "I don't want to overdo it, so I'll just play it smart" vocal trill at the very end. Someone please fire Randy Jackson now!"

I totally agree! Come on, Syesha gets slammed for choosing an "old" song, and the producers pick Longer for Archie, written 28 years ago, while Paula gives him "And So it goes", written 25 years ago...

@lillian123:

"... I wonder how, though we can rip on a song (for Archuleta) being for a 90-year old when the Producers picked it??? Why would they pick that song. He sounded great but why not give him something better."

I thought the same thing, and my theory is that this is how the producers are punishing Jeff Pimpchuleta.
