@Rory B. Bellows: how come no one is talking about Danny's friend completely pimping his dead wife with that picture

The guys at Entertainment Weekly commented heavily on the little photo number:

IMO Danny is way overrated. He certainly is not ideal for commercial radio and he doesn't have any originality or artistry.
On the other hand I would start paying close attention to Matt Giraud. That guy has something special.

Love his voice, very Gavin De Graw, The Fray, you know pop with soulful edges. Simon likes him a lot.

I was impressed with his cover of Georgia. Sounded very contemporary. I hope he goes far in the competition. The only problem he has right now is that hasn't been featured as much as the other top guys, but with a stellar performance that could all change.
I am rooting for Matt G.

@Rory B. Bellows: Okay, I hate to be the one to break it to you, but hardcore Christian types do that shit a LOT. Ask any rapper.

Umm…I was out yesterday, but how come no one is talking about Danny’s friend completely pimping his dead wife with that picture. I know they are heavy handed with the backstories at times, but that was over the top even for AI.

@Maura Johnston: Maura, I think you've made my day with that news. :-)

Now, I'd just like to have Patrick Stump come to my office to read the phone book to me. (Okay, so that'll never happen ... but a girl can dream, right?)

Anoop got robbed. It was really annoying for them to give it to Sarver. Simon’s long-winded endorsement must have went a long way(even though the show is fixed). I do like Danny and I think he deserved to at least get in the Top 12. Alexis annoys me.

You guys are dead-on, that guy is very Kubiak-esque! Lame. And Danny’s encore performance sucked, believe that.

Tatiana handled it with class. Good for her, I ended up liking her. I like Anoop too, despite his being a hated Tar Heel — I trend toward royal blue — and his annoyed face was very funny during Carly’s inane story. I have to think they’ll get him back involved, which is good for all of us since I think he’ll actually pick some fun songs based on some videos I saw of his a capella group at school.

You guys are dead-on! This guy is very Kubiak-esque.

If you watch this again at some point, check out Anoop’s “shut the hell up” face in the back while Carly was telling some inane story. Hilarious! Despite Anoop being a dreaded Tar Heel — I’m a Blue Devil, myself — I like him. I’d tend to think they’re going to put him back in, which is good for all of us. If you track down some of his a capella performances from school, he does some very fun songs.
