Pauler's Major Boo Boo

And now, to live on forever in my blog, the best moment of this show, EVER!

xoxo

Results Show from Diamond Week

Well, I can't wait to see if freakin' Ryan talks about Pauler. Well, there it is. They took the high road and said that Pauler is part of our family, and the rumors about her are not true. We love her. I thought that was class.

So, the boys are all safe until next week. What I know now, is I will not get zero points this week in the pool because I freakin' split my points between Syesha and Brooke. I am guaranteed 10 points this week.

So, Brooke is so pretty with her straight hair. I hope she does an album. i'd buy it.

Natasha was awesome. I loved alot of this show.

1. The Pauler statement
2. The caller who kissed Simon at age 9 in the garden. They can't make that shit up.
3. Natasha Beddingfield
4. Her crush on Li'l Davie boy

Neil Diamond...well, what can I say? I can't watch him without seeing Will Ferrell. Sorry. He's a talented man, no doubt. Next week's theme week is Rock N Roll Hall of Fame. Come on...do you think Madonna will allow any songs?

Brooke cries us out...and Seacrest dives in for extra hugs on the stage. I cried. I admit it. She's so sweet. I wish I could just send her $16.99 right now. And let her owe me my cd. Dammit. She's so sweet. If I get her address, I'll post it here. I'm writing her a check. I wonder if it would get cashed! haha. You think I'm kidding, don't you?

Diamond Top 5...

Who the hell went nuts with the hair extensions. Siyesha Sanjaya ... She's working it out tonite for Neil Diamond Week.

Trivia alert: Sweet Caroline...written for what famous Caroline. Bzzzzzz. That would be Caroline Kennedy.

Jason is the BIGGEST nerd ever on this show. And he's up first. Hurray, they are singing 2 songs tonite each. Jason, the stoner hippy, worked it out tonite. Pretty good. Listen, he is what he is. He's mellow and easy breezy. It's just the way it is with him.

Sidenote: Lu...do you want to go see Bret Michaels concert at Cache Creek this summer? Ha. OMG, hysterical.

David Cook, my pick for the winner, I feel the need to remind you all. PIcked him waaaayyyyy back, when everyone was on the Michael Johns train, and he was just Queenie to me. And of course, he blew it out...and away. Awesome.

Brooke White...this song is not in her register...I'm NOT a believer Brooke. You're outta here. Sorry, but Sayesha will have to literally fold the table and walk away to lose to you this week. This is so awful. Even Simon is thinking, omg how do I tell her she sux in a nice way. Note: Simon takes a drink of coke instead of clapping. ha.ha.

David, the child prodigy, is up next with Sweet Caroline. I'm liking him, but not loving him. His voice is a little muffled ish. Nasally? It's certainly unique.

Syesha, she looks so pretty in her new wig. What a pretty and boring performance. The mentors music this year has sucked. Except Mariah. I loved her.

PAULER FUCKED UP SO MUCH TONITE....SHE GAVE JASON A PERFORMANCE REVIEW ON HIS SECOND SONG...WHICH HE HASN'T SUNG YET. She's sitting there flipping cards like she a dealer in Vegas. OMG. How embarrassing. That's the absolute worst mistake and BEST fuck up ever. Mmm. Remember when Brooke forgot her words? Well, Pauler, atleast she remembers what dimension she is in. And I have to say, atleast Simon tried to save her. He really did.

Jason, now sings his second song. Atleast he ditched his guitar. I think he's doing a better job on this one. LIsten, Jason, take my advice...cut those dreds and get your ass (a tight one I see) down to the underwear modeling agency. You're just hot to look at...and you can sing, but your money maker is not your voice...it's your teeth, blue eyes, smile and body. Simon is right, he didn't try to make it his own. Listen, Jason just wants to go home. He doesn't want to win this shit. For fuck's sake, he wants to be back at Texas A&M smokin' doobies and slammin' on chicks.

David Cook, making it his own. I will download this song tomorrow off Itunes. For sure. Ok, maybe not, I didn't like that high note at all. Ok, maybe, 'cuz I really liked the ending. Ok, I hate his necklaces. That jewelry looks like something from the Bratz Glamour Party Pack. And Simon gives him the Brilliant, smart well-done remarks that he so deservedly deserves.

Good thing there is a break because Brooke and Archie probably pooh'd their skivvies after DC's review. Brooke has a horrible outfit on tonite. I hate it. Those grey pants look like fake leather sparkly clown pants. Brooke starts off strong on this. So, she isn't really changing it up a bit...even if she injected Arizona into the lyrics. I think Brooke is losing her voice to be honest. She is talented. I think she could make a really nice record. Like Jason would compete with Michael Buble'. And Brooke, well, I don't know who sings mellow girl shit.

Archie, he's so cute. Just let him come in second to David Cook, and he can start a boy band and go on Hannah Montana tours when those goony Jonas Brothers are out. It was ok but I'm a little tired of him. His little "Coming to America".

Syesha...I hate this song. And this gospel choir revival thing. It's not American Idol. Hated it. But whatever.

Ok, so tonite...same as every week. Syesha or Brooke. Ugh, I'll pick wrong and continue my streak of loserville. Actually my bottom three would be Syesha, Brooke and Pauler. And Pauler would go home...like a home that some call rehab.

Roger Clemens: Affair with Country Singer McCready


Ok, so I am a baseball fan...a country music fan...and most importantly, a fan of 'white trash behavior' amongst millionaires. This is what I LOVE LOVE LOVE.

My favorite quote of the day and probably of the new millenium... "what happens in the trailer park, stays in the trailer park." LOVE it.

So, it seems Roger was cheating on and off the field, if you believe the accusations that he vehemently denies. But as Coley always says, "Where there's smoke, there's fire." In general, the media is too loosely organized and stupid to make stuff up like this and back it up in a way to make it look truthful.

By the Way, Mindy McCready has a great mugshot. Sadly, she tried to commit suicide....and has been on a path of self-destruction since her one-hit wonder days.

Mmm. I tell you, that Roger is in deep doo-doo.

Happy Weekend Everyone...

I'm off to Long Beach, CA to visit my husband's grandma who turned 90 years old yesterday. Wowzee. So, up at 6:00 am tomorrow to arrive 7 hour later to a house that will be atleast 105 degrees fahrenheit. I'm thinking about parking a baby pool next to her bed and eating ice cream all day. Granted I was there at Christmas but it was a freakin' sauna in there.

So, I will leave Northern California in 55 degree weather, in shorts, freeze my ass until we get to I-5 and sun is blazin' and we will arrive in Smog -a - Licious LA by 2:00 pm. Can't wait.

So, I won't be bloggin' 'cuz I'll be unplugged. Write you about anything I see worthy of notation...like pigs in rest areas...when I return. I'm always good for a story, aren't I?

xoxo.

coleyb...on the road until Sunday...ciao bella. Don't forget...I can get your comments on my BlackBerry, so tell me something good...I've got 7 hours in the car with hubby to kill. That didn't come out right...I won't be killing the hubby, just time. Ok, you get it and I need to snooze.

nitey nite...again.

Time to respond to the peeps....

Not sure how many of you read the comments that get posted, so I'm elevating a few of them today...

AmyB writes: I think is my last season watching AI. It's terrible this year! Booooooo. How Brooke is not gone is a mystery unless vote for the worst really is working.I can't wait until AI gets really desperate and brings back our fave passed idols for a new competition - ala Apprentice style that the Donald has done. Who would be the 12 you would assemble in that cast, Cole? They can't have won, or have been a runner up or currently be any sort of legit artist.

ColeyB thinks: Wow Amy, now that's a fun challenge...who would be in the Top 12 cast. Well, the one that comes to mind to me has been on Broadway, but she's from Season 1...Tamyra Gray. She was awesome, and the first "vote off heard round the world" on AI. She was 4th off, with that hideous Nikki McGibben going further, with Justin and the eventual winner, Kelly. Since you put the breaks on "any legit artist", I have to qualify that. Because Kimberly Locke is an artist with an album, but I don't think anyone knows it. So is Bo Bice. Daughtry ...he definitely does not qualify for the 2nd chance show, that would kill his career. So, let's put that as the tie-breaker...bringing them back? Boost or Kill? So, say that really good black woman who was a mail carrier a couple seasons back. I loved her. She was too shy. More on this one later. I need to pull in my research team.

NJ Fan: Hey Cole, did you hear that Kelly Clarkson sang Ava Maria for The Pope? (I paraphrase here, NJ Fan didn't write exactly that, but you get the gist.

ColeyB: Nope, didn't know it and can't believe it. Thanks for the snippet. And why didn't we get more out of the media on that. Because the stupid Entertainment Media has their noses so far up the asses of the preggo teenagers in Hollywood that they no longer understand a real news story. Jamie Lynn...Ashlee Simpson...Jessica Alba...blah blah blah. Whatevs.

Oh, and Jordan Sparks broke her voice. Yep, she gots bleeding vocal cords and has to bail on Alicia Keys tour for a couple months to heal or she will have permanent damage. Celine Dion had this happen. Julie Andrews has surgery to repair this situation and completely ruined her career, as the surgery went bad. So sad.

So, keep the cards and letters coming..

Results Show from Theatre Week with Andrew

People...did you see Jason yawning behind the stage while watching the monitor?

Andrew L Weber is hysterically gay. OMG.

Well, atleast they brought the David's out there safe and quick.

And people...I run the office pool, and I can say unequivacably, I suck the worst of anyone ever. I have not picked a correct person yet...since like the first week. I think I picked Danny Noriega. And that's it.

So, I put 15 points on Brooke and 5 on Jason. You get to spread out 20 points across all contestants or just a few or even one. I am a 8 week loser now. Carly goes bye bye. And I get goose egged again!

I wish Jason was gone. Dangit.

Our Poll results...

Well, you voted this week...and everyone said Syesha...before she performed. And Brooke was in second. Well, I think the tables have turned after Brooke's false start. The blogs are all supporting my "Brooke is Out" vote. Which means it will be Jason. I'm just saying...I haven't gotten it right all season. My Idol-radar is seriously needing a new spark plug.

So, about Gossip Girl...did you know Dan and Serena date in real life? hee hee.

OH< and guess who is getting divorced. Star Jones and Big Gay Al. Why? Well, she is married to Big GAY Al. 'nuff said. She's a trainwreckster.

Ok, so that's the scoopy.

Gossip Girl Eye Candy...


Ok, as I was saving this to my desktop to post to you, I accidentally clicked on "save as desktop image"...which means my desktop at work now makes me look like a horny 17 year old. OMG, I'm not even smart enough to get it off...which I a 17 year old would be able to do. Now, I'm going to have to get 'Ivan the Terrible' IT helper dude to come up and show me. This is going to be embarrassing. Well, add it to my list. Maybe I can figure it out. In the meantime...17 year old drooler I will be.

And by the way...one of these 6 men is coming out of the closet as gay in an upcoming episode. YUM. Gay stuff. I love the closet doors swinging open. I love any skeleton rattling.

xoxo

PS...just because Gossip Girl signs off her shit 'xoxo' does not mean I am copying her. I got that from my maw maw, who signed every bday card my entire life with xoxo. And I love it. That's my disclaimer.

Andrew Lloyd Webber Nite...

Please let me be pleasantly surprised!!! My expectations are low. I have a friend Kendall in the crowd at the live show tonite..I hope I can get some good scoop from her.

So, they say that the idols need to make themselves memorable...so let's start off with Syesha, who has gotten alot of 'forgettable' comments from Simon.

Syesha Mercado - One Rock N Roll too many...started a beat too soon...Hey, they gave Syesha a pimp dance partner. You know this ain't bad. I kind of like it. Nice personality. Think about this compared to Brooke sitting behind a piano last week... I think if Syesha could project her voice just a bit louder, she would be awesome...but that was probably her best performance ever for me. Hey and Randy agrees with me. Shocker. Pauler is agreeing with us all. And she was perfectly dressed for this performance...and Simon may have gotten a chubby out of it. No bottom 3 for Syesha this week. Ricky Minor is a Pussycat Doll. That Ryan..he's such a kidder.

So far...pleasantly surprised. But Whoopi Weave is up next. Oh lord is he a dipshit. He's not the brightest bulb in the tanning bed. (hello...stole that from JUNO). I hate the audience waving their damn arms. They look like drowning mermaids or like they just fell overboard from the Good Ship Dumbshit. Ok, singing is over. I'm sorry. The guy is as nice as pie...but I'm tired of his act now. It's getting old. It's the same damn thing each week...he's squatting on a stool and bats his eyes. Oh and Randy is ripping him. Pauler astutely points out he is not a female ballad singer. haha. They always dress Jason terribly. Simon is acting up..he's bored. The venom is just burning a hole on the tip of his tongue. Simon has such fantasies some times...forced to sing at a wedding by his parents. How did he come up with that shit.

ALW gives Brooke mad props ... uh oh...she forgot the words again. She has to restart. Watch her really close people, because this is her last week on the show. Off to Broadway she goes. Her and her natural actress self. She better learn to control stage fright. Oh, again with the waving arms. This looks painful for her to push out. She keeps dipping her head. Like a dolphin or something. I just want to shove the microphone to her face...she keeps waving it around and I'm losing the song. Ok, this wasn't good for me. It wasn't as bad as Jason, but I feel like it was a bit pitchy...When Pauler starts out with 'umm...and says "You must never start and stop"...I don't get what she meant after that. I would just want to bitch slap her. Simon could have been meaner. Atleast he said she was brave to start and stop...that was cool. Shut up Pauler..you wanted her to lie...and make up the words. Well maybe that shit works on your songs...straight up and tell me blah blah ba blah...wanna be together...whoa whoa whoa. There aren't any whoa whoa whoa's in Broadway musicals. you goof ball.

OMG, they are pimping out DAvid ARchuletta. To brace face girls. Lord have mercy. So, he has to open his eyes up and sing this song...and he keeps squint blinking. It's funny. This kid is talented as all get out. He's like a tiny young Michael Bolton. Hee hee. Nice job DA. Andrew LW in the crowd looks like a big old toad. He's ancient. Yet so talented I must admit. Randy say he is the one to beat. Well, DCook is going to come up and fry his ass. Simon felt it was weak and forgettable. What? That shocked me.

Notice how Carly is smiling like a cheshire cat tonite. She learned from her feedback as the mad screamer. Good for her. Can't kick a girl for trying...and I kind of liked it. I think it beat Jason or Brooke. She looked good too. She ain't going anywhere tonite. OK, the tshirt was stupid. Who staged that shit?

Saving the best for last...my guy David Cook...he killed it. That was awesome. I loved that performance. I got chills. Very, very nice vocal.

Well, I must admit...I was pleasantly surprised and happy with the the show tonite. Dammit..I completely worked late tonite at the office and it's already 10:30 pm. Gotta skidaddle off to to beddy bye.

xoxo...zzzzzzzzz.....

Did you hear it?

Surely you heard that loud scream I let out when I found my f(*&ing TIVO did NOT record Gossip Girl. OMG. Or as the Gossip Girl banner says OMFG...I shit you not it does. I tried to paste it into the blog. I digress.

But alas, my anal retentive tendencies kicked in last night. I just remembered I recorded it on the bedroom tv TIVO (yes, I have two 80 gig hard drives...jealous?) thinking my hubby would not want to watch Gossip Girl in the living room with me. So I am safely tucked in my comfy nest, watching at my own pace and leisure. He is in the other room watching car restoration shows...boring. Watching paint dry...on car hoods...not much different than walls, as the saying goes.

So, Gossip Girl did a spectacular recap lead in. Did I do it justice in my recap? I'm thinking so. So, here we go. So far, the title is Excellent...the Blair Bitch Project. LOL.

Don't put your dirty package on the table...humiliated..party of 1. ha ha. There's some good lines in this show, that's for sure.

Spotted...Jenny in a red dress...with the red hands to match...looks like 'utter disgrace' on the label. This is cat fight bitch badass.
Commercial time: Sex and the City movie looks good. I'm tired of Madonna and JT and the 4 minute song. It's getting old. Like Daisy on Rock of Love 2 called Ambre old and I quote "She's like 500 years old"...so in Daisy time, Madonna is about 750 years old. Ha. WTF...a new show called Farmer Wants a Wife. OMG. I will not be watching. Ok, maybe once.

You know those people that people look at wide eyed because they will eat anything? You know like maybe you remember that from high school? Well, I'm like that person at the lunch table at work...only instead of eat anything, I'll WATCH anything. It's hysterical. you name it, I've watched it. hee hee. Oh, by the way, someone dared me to eat some playdoh on Thursday. I negotiated it down to the size of a buggar. Buggah size playdoh ball. I ate it. It tasted like....um, buggah.

Show's back on...ok, well, drama, drama, drama..and a note from "G". Who could it be. Well, previews tell us it must be someone from Serena's druggie days of debauchery and hijinx. I didn't watch the show to see all that, but maybe some recapping is in our futures.

Well, hope you liked the show. Chuck Bass (CBass) was not as evil as usual, and BB (Blair Bitch) had her moments. Nate is as hot as molten lava. I hate that I lust after these boys, but it takes me back to my innocent high school crushes on dumb shows like Melrose Place and stuff. I loved Andrew Shue. Or Andrew McCarthy from Pretty In Pink. Remember James Spader was the a-hole rich boy in that movie? And the most famous of all in that movie...freakin' Ducky. He's on Two and a Half Men with Denise Richardson's ex...who's name escapes me. Charlie Sheen. Whoa..Senior moment there for a moment. just watched the show tonite. If you don't your missing some funny shit.

Ok, bedtime for Bonzo.

nitey Nite.

Get ready for tomorrow nite. Might want to start pounding the caffeine early...keep us all awake for this boring
week with Andrew Lloyd Webber...whatevs.

GOSSIP GIRL IS BACK TONITE!


I wrote this little recap for AmyB, who surprisingly is so caught up in her new digs in Portland, she has lost touch with reality and hasn't watched GG. Well, I admit, I am a late adopter to the show as well. The writer's strike drove me to it. I downloaded like 4 epi's off Itunes when I took the trip to Arizona and it was awesome. Ok, warning, you have to wear your cheese filter glasses. Think like a 17 year old going on 35. You have to overlook some of the heartbreak drama of the severely insecure and caught up in their own little worlds. That's the show, afterall.

So, here's my "catch up for you all"...and watch it tonite. It's gonna be good!

Rich Kids living in NYC, going to Prep School. UBER Rich, Blair Waldorf is the main character beauty queen. Her BFF is Serena, who dates Dan (the smart but poor boy on scholarship), Blair has already been exiled in Sophomore year and sent to rehab. But repented her sins, and is back. Kelly Rutherford (Melrose Place !) is her mom, who is in love with her daughters boyfriend’s dad, Rufus, who is going through a divorce. Dan's sister, Jenny, is trying to be a cool girl in the in crowd, and she is sort of a "Blair-In-Waiting" and has a bit of an evil streak in her. Most of the angst is all of them wondering who and when they will lose their viginity. LOL

Chuck Bass, the best character on the show, is a rich a-hole and throws his money around like I depose of Kleenex...leaves to JFK on whim in his limo, when things don't go his way. His father has just proposed to Serena’s mom (even though she is in love with Dan’s dad), and we don't know yet if she has accepted, which means Cbass and Serena may be stepsiblings. Meanwhile, Chuck just stole the virginity of Blair Waldorf...a pitty “F*&%” on Blair’s part, as she had just been dumped by Nate, Chace Crawford (Carrie Underwood’s ex). Chace dumped her because he felt it was blah blah blah, who cares. They are back now, and CBASS is pissed, because it seems, Blair wasn't just a romp...he loves her, and always has. But Nate has always been his best friend. This doesn't add up does it? Nope. 2 + 2 = blackmail. Chuck is sticking it to Blair, in that if she doesn't dump Nate, he's going to tell the world she is 'used goods'.

Now, the good part. There is a mysterious, anonymous “reporter” known as Gossip Girl, who has the email address of the entire school, and people send her pictures anonymously with little back stabbing stories and gossip...people in compromising positions to say the least, and they blackmail each other. Guess what Gossip Girl got from CBass on the last episode. You got it. Blair's secret is out, and even though now Nate and her have done the bone dance, Nate thought he was her first dance partner...and it seems, ooops. Not so much.

HA. It’s delicious. Great music too. The CW network. And if you go to www.cwtv.com you can catch up on previous episodes...full episodes are there for the viewing!

I will be recapping this shit tomorrow, because Idol is leaving me uninspired. I'm also depressed that David Cook has now got a girlfriend. Some chick he met during Idol Gives Back crapola.

I remain, your loyal bloggeress...

David Cook - Analog Heart...self released album

Lu has fantastically spread the word to me that Amazon.com has David's self release album available for downloading.

I have to say, I purchased 2 of the 10 songs. The TRUTH and MAKEOVER were my favorites. It's a good mix of rock and ballad. He's definitely a hard rocker on this album. And I don't like edgier rock. Nickelback is as tough as I get. And even they cross the line for me, sometimes.

These are great songs, and his voice is so unique. He's a freakin' star the dude. Get him in a studio with millions to back him and some songwriter's writing to his voice and style...and we have another winner from Idol people. I hate to keep comparing him to Daughtry but really, that's all we have for successful male Idols. I think Josh Gracin was possibly the second most talented 'early voted off'. I tell you, his country songs are killer good. If you are new to the blog, go check out "I Want To Live" by Josh Gracin. Smokin' hot song.

Thanks again Lu!

Time to Fess Up

Ok, people. I've been feeling this for a long time, and it's time to pull up the big girl panties and admit it. We are all bored with American Idol this season. This is not the big news here. It's my conclusion as to why? we are uninspired. It's because they are too good. There is no one to pick on. Why did we let them boot CryBaby car boy so early on? People, it's a personality/fashion contest at this point. All of these people are better than 60% of the past winners. Taylor Hicks would have come in 7th in this years competition, if not lower. Fantasia would never have beat David Archuleta or Cook. no way. Don't get me started on Rueben vs. Clay. Katherine McPhee should have beat Taylor, but could she have beat David Cook? Or Brooke? Or Carly? I'm not thinking so. Of course, Chris, Kelly and Carrie, would have beat all of these peeps. Although I do believe David Cook can reach Chris Daughtry potential by the end of this journey.

So what's missing? Let's face it. We used to tune in to see the Faux Hawk Sanjaya...the Chris Sligh's, Anthony Federov's, Chicken Little's, and Jasmine Trias trainwrecks. America loves the 'boo factor'. They love Simon looking a bone head right in the eyes and saying, "I'm sorry but I could have heard that at any hotel lounge in America over a beer and pizza." And where is our Constantine Maroulis? The cheese factor is seriously lacking this season. What about girls with boobie pics on YouTube. Remember that NJersey girl? Antonia or something like that..with the beach pics? Antonella Barbarella Boobie Girl? Remember how much fun we had making fun of Boobie Girl? Oh, for the good old days. No boobies this season. Remember when Kat McPhee showed her snatch? Good times.

We love the judges sarcasm and wit... "that was just pitchy"..."you lost the melody completely 1/2 way through"...or MY personal favorite from Randy a few seasons back "Dude, I didn't even know what song that was until you were almost done."

So, I hope they take that into account next season. And put Dolly Parton back into mothballs. I'd rather make fun of Barry Manilow. Next season, bring on a train wreck as a mentor...or say, FLAVOR FLAV or Bret Michaels. What about 80's hair band week? Did they do that yet?

All I can say is Andrew Lloyd Weber week is going to be like watching paint dry. Or grass grow. It's good solid music, that Phantom of the Opera shit, but it ain't hitting the top 40. Or playing on my ipod. That's all I'm saying.

In conclusion people, I need a little more crybaby car boy to make my season complete. We can only hope for next season.

Kristy Lee Cook is out to pasture with her horses now

Well, the shenanigans they pulled on that stage tonite was ridiculous. Boring. I like Elliott Yamin. And Mariah was great.

Now let's talk about that shit around Pauler's neck. I can just picture her at home this evening. Hmmm..what to wear? what to wear? I love my silk flower, ooh, or my gold mesh necklace, or perhaps the sparkly scarf. What the fuck, let's pile all three around my scrawny chicken neck. And pile my hair up like the mother of the bride at an Italian wedding in the Bronx.

In on word she looked HIDEOUS.

More later, I have too much tv to watch.

5 days to Gossip Girl

Funny from Rickey.org



Rickey says Brooke is going tonite! mmmm. I don't know. I like it when it's not that easy to pick, actually. But I am sticking with Carly

Ummmm...Yum. It's the Fiercest!

Last Night's Performances...


Sorry, I couldn't blog in real-time last night. I lost track of the days, due to a trip to Portland on Monday, and I thought it was Monday again, and forgot the show was on, and didn't drag my laptop home...and basically, I'm a dumbass.

With that being said, of course, I watched the show...and I was salivating over David Cook. I mean, that man is Red Hot Lava Molten Sexy. I see glimpses of Daughtry in him...he really rocks the stage and is a real performer now. He must down a bottle of Hottie Pills every morning, because he is looking good. I can't believe they fixed that HAIR! I like his clothes too. Ok, enough of that.

The girls are not my favorite. Brooke was the best by far. She just needs to chill out. Take a Tequila shot, girl. She was freaking shaking on that piano bench. I hope she wears Depends, because she literally looks as if she is going to piss herself she is so excited and nervous. Seriously. But, in all honesty, she could cut a record and I'd buy it. She's very Colbie Caillat meets Sheryl Crow. (Sheryl's new song...not lovin' it so much. echh)

My husband almost whipped a fork at the tv when Carly was on. She has really turned him off. We were Carly fans early on..but that screaming angrily each week has got to stop. And if America hates that more than KLC and Syesha, then we may have seen our last of the Tattoo'd Lassie Carly. Speaking of Tattoos...I heard Jordin's Tattoo for the first time today..."odd I know"...and I like it. I downloaded "No Air" after the performance on Idol Gives Back. That's a hot little jam session there, my friends.

David Archuletta...cute little boy band hottie. If he could just improve one thing, for me it would be how he stands there while receiving judges feedback. I feel like he is on the school playground, waiting to be picked for a dodgeball team. He's so lame. He needs to do something besides hang his thumbs in his pockets and display his joker grin. Listen, go dig up a copy of Backstreet Boys and listen to any of those songs...little David could have been in that band for sure. He sounds alot like them.
So, if you were going to form an Idol Boy Band, who would be in it...

David Archuletta, Blake Lewis, Danny Noriega (ha ha)...you know I can't even think of 5 cute boys from past Idol shows.

Well, I think a girl is going home tonite, and I think it's Carly or Syesha. I don't know. Maybe KLC is dunzo. It's hard to pick. I don't think it's a boy or Brooke. So, I'll sign off and we'll see if I am right...and I'll put it out there...Carly should be out.

Finally a picture of ME!



Well, atleast this is what my hair looks like today! It's out of control.

Kudos to the first person who posts a comment with the correct name of the woman in the picture, and bonus kudos if you know what show she was on, and who also appeared right next to her.

Who's going to the Post Office first thing in am?


I am!!!

As part of American Idol's "Idol Gives Back" charity initiative, new U.S. Postal Stamps are being released to help raise money.

The stamps will feature the past six winners and will also feature this year's winner.

The commemorative charity stamps will go on sale as part of a limited edition set, with 100,000 20-stamp sheets for each Idol winner. The stamps will not be sold in USPS stores though, but instead through Stamps.com.

Starting May 12th, regular first class stamps will cost .42 cents each, so a regular sheet would cost $8.40, but these special edition stamps will cost $19.99, with proceeds benefiting "Idol Gives Back."

As part of their fundraising efforts AI executive producer Nigel Lythgoe said he hopes to generate about $7 million through the sale of the stamps. Their goal this year is to surpass last year's $76 million raised, and break over $100 million this year.

Nigel says that the stamps are "a great idea, especially for philatelists. I think it's a little bit iconic, too. It's great for Idol."

Now on sale are Kelly Clarkson stamps, with each sheet containing four images. The other 5 Idol winners will be release over the next five weeks.

Thanks Perez Hilton for the story. Pretty good. I can't wait to get my Kelly stamps! whoo hoo

Results Show...who goes home tonite, or will anyone?

You know the rumor is that no one is going home tonite. They think the "gives back" hangover will be all touchy feely and it will save someone. Nope, I don't think so.

So, here we have a bunch of clips of last night. And Jordan and Chris Brown tear it up on stage. Our little Jordin (loose use of "little" here because she could snap Chris Brown like a twig..I digress) is quite the glamour puss tonite. All hopped up in her fancy threads. Sportin' some Shriver helmet head or hair extensions. She's looking fierce. Oh, and I hated that Tyra Banks stole Christian's line last night. You are the anti-fierce Tyra.

So, let's cut to the chase here. I have this on TIVO and I just want to know the final 3. OMG, Michael Johns is in the bottom for the first time. Syesha and Carly. Well, there goes MJ.

I told you so. From the beginning. Sorry, but he is a tennis player that sings Queen. End of story and end of the line. Now go model tennis wear.

Bye now.

Idol Gives Back...the 400th Post on My Blog

Well, I must say, the opening number has been pretty cool. The music is good...better than most group sings, that's for sure. And David Cook looked like a star up there on his part.

Funniest quote of the day about last night. "Little Jason Castro...wasn't he good? He and his little Whoopi Weave..." OMG, the Whoopi Weave. Thank you Andre for that fit of hysterical laughter.

So, I think they are certainly trotting out the celeb tonite, starting with Maria Shriver. Maria, where the hell do you store that hair at might. That is one helmet of hair you are sportin'. Like are you hiding some Whoopi Weave for Jason? Sorry I couldn't resist. I mean really, I can't possibly over use Whoopi Weave. While I am picking on her, let's talk about that jawline. I believe only Sara Jessica Parker has a stronger chin and jawline. Ben Stiller ... oh this is good, I'm sure.

Randy looked fly in that suit. OH MY LORD Terri Hatcher is seeing Carrie's song? When is Carrie going to pop out? Come on, this is making my eyes water. It's not that bad, but didn't we learn last night...don't sing a past idols song? (see syesha tomorrow nite). Does Terri Hatcher sing? I mean she actually looks like she thinks she can. OMG, this is painful. Please let it end with Simon telling her it was awful, and she should stick to being a little vixen on tv. OMG< they actually...oh thank god Carrie came out. Dang, I guess she will sing later.

Jimmy Kimmel kills me. That was hysterical, the little roasting of Simon.

Carrie Underwood is the most uberist of uber stars. She is simply the most beautiful woman on the planet. Flaw. Less. OMG, Whoopi Weave.

Sara Silverman...oh shit, this is going to be scary. Thank goodness she got off.

Man, Miley Cyrus gets a second performance! That girl will be worth more than Oprah by the time she is 25. Where are those Jonas Brothers? Have you seen the Mandy and Miley Show on YouTube? It's hysterical. Yes, that's what I said, I watch Miley on You Tube. I can't help it, I am addicted to everything that is stupid and silly. I just love it. I can't help it. I am stupid and silly and feel comfortable when others are equally idiotic. I feels normal, almost.

Robin Williams is just a wreck. I think he is hysterical, but sometimes I just have to say ENOUGH. He grabs Simon's ass pretty good. He's pretty funny,
Listen, did I comment on that red flower in Pauler's hair? Why? She reminds me of a waitress in a cheap Italian restaurant.
Daughtry was awesome. Brad Pitt was rough around the edges. Oh, who am I kidding, he's hotter than lava. Dang it, my TIVO cut off Mariah Carey. Randy was cute.

Well, I hope everyone loved Syesha tonite, because she is going tomorrow. Gotta go now. I need to donate to Idol Gives Back. And I hope everyone who reads the blog has donated as well. Just give us a Starbucks for 2 days and donate a ten spot. Or more if you can. I'm gonna keep dialing until I get an Idol on the line. I'll say hi for y'all.

The Great 8 Perform Tonite

Well, we open the show and Pauler has her boobs hiked up to her neck, so all signs show it's going to be a hot one tonite y'all. Of course, tomorrow night is the Pillsbury Bake Off Idol Gives Back show. (For those not with us last year, I found that the PIllsbury logo is the same red ribbon as the Idol Gives Back logo. So lame of a logo. But this is what I do for a living, so I am a little more critical I must say.

Well, Michael Johns is up first, and so, here we go. Steven Tyler/Aerosmith "Dream On". That song is not inspirational to me. And he just doesn't measure up. I didn't really like it. He is just not a rocker to me. And Simon agrees.

Is it just me or are these contestants a little bit lippy this season? Now the normal MJ is talking back. Mmm. Are they thinking KLee Cook and Brooke are blazing trails with their recent feedback during judges comments.

Syesha pulls out Fantasia. I thought it was much better than the judges. Again with the lip. These idols are really dishing it back to Randy. He even comments on it, which is funny.

Jason Castro plays the uke. You know I thought this was so stupid at the beginning, but you know what? it was pretty good. A really great version of that song. And he nailed it. For me he saved himself for this week 4 sure.

KLC is pulling out Martina McBride and this is a great song. VERY inspirational. Let me tell you what people, this girl has the best stylist on the show. She is dressed perfectly EVERY week. This girl just has to keep emotion up in her performances. And there you go, she actually whips the mike off the stand and moves her hips to the beat. Best performance on this show, to me. Judges say: good, excellent, and Simon: very, very good indeed. And says tonite she looks like a star. And I have to agree. I think she gave a Carrie calibre of song. When she sticks with country, she nails it.


David Cook...oh no, this is not starting off good to me. What did he say in the first sentence of that song? and why is he swallowing the microphone? Out of all the songs he could sing, what is this shit? Oh, and he writes GIVE BACK on his hand. Clevah. Well, sorry DC, you're my fave, but this week was not good for me dawgette. NOT GOOD. Randy AGREES. Oh look little Taylor Swift is in the crowd. And Simon thought it was pompous.

What is wrong with Pauler tonite? She is like crazy tonite? She is nutso. Like making manic faces.

Carly pulls out Queen. Well somebody has to. I mean it's just not an Idol show without Freddie is it? I mean, it's not a show without Queen songs being butchered and belted out. Carly has yet to find a stylist. Why does she appear week after week in some kind of tank top? And tight black pants. With a gold belt that my gma wore to her retirement party. The end of this was awful. VERY pitchy. Not good. I hope she gets worse marks than DC. Randy is going to rip her. I can tell. Simon, I couldn't agree more with you. Wrong song, and a bit of trouble after tonite. I hated the outfit. The silver in the top and gold belt?

Ok, Pauler's boobs are so distracting tonite. Like that dress has her cut in half...like her boobs are crushed at the bottom. It's the weirdest thing I've ever seen.

David ARchuleta, I'm sorry but I am focused on the smoke machine puffing over his shoulder. Bad camera angle. Great song, great performance. He's really maturing in his performances. Randy: loved it. Hottest moment of all season. Pauler: Good feedback of course Simon: felt like it was nasally but admits he was nitpicking. I gotta give it to that kid. He would have beat Clay Aiken or Rueben...and Taylor Hicks couldn't even come close to him.

Brooke White: Pulls Carroll King out. Hey, I think Brooke wears my same glasses! Groovy girl. Good song for her, can't wait to hear it. Nice performance. It was so sweet. I don't like that outfit. It could have been a little bit hipper. Very inspirational. It got the judges "nice stamp of approval". And really it wasn't a sock blower.

You know, I have to give mad props to Ryan Seacrest these past few weeks. He's a sweet man. He really seems to care about these contestants. He's like holding onto Brooke to make her feel better. She's shaking. I loves me some Ryan.

Well party peeps, this was a pretty good week. I can't really find a total stinker in the whole lot. But Carly gets my vote for the worst of show this week. And not just because I am sick of Queen. Syesha wasn't so great and neither was MJ...

Nitey nite

Carrie and Chace: Officially Over...Dunzo



Story below from PEOPLE.com:


When Carrie Underwood and Chace Crawford split up, the couple called it quits digital style, says the country star.

"It was completely mutual," Underwood told Extra at the taping of Idol Gives Back. "We broke up over text so ... it's like 'peace out.' "

According to Underwood, the breakup wasn't a tearful confrontation, but a realization that the romance just wasn't meant to be between her and the Gossip Girl hunk. "It just didn't work," she said. "We both knew it didn't work and [had] no hard feelings at all whatsoever."

Although the couple hasn't spoken recently, Underwood has nothing negative to say about her ex. "I don't dislike him, so it's no big deal."

The split was a bit harder on Crawford, however. "He was upset about the breakup," his sister, Candice, told PEOPLE last week. "It's always hard when you lose a relationship."

Underwood reveals that her high profile relationship was made harder by fame. "It's difficult while you're dating because people always make a lot bigger deal of things than they actually are," she tells Extra. "Then when you break up with somebody and then like two months later it comes out and it's like you're rehashing old stuff. I don't know what that's all out now."
-------

That little Carrie is having a tough time with these little heartbreakers. Tony Romo, Chace Crawford. Mmm. Well, girlfriend, let me give you a tip. You cite "fame" as an issue that interferes with your love life every time. So, here's what you need to do. Go out and rent "Notting Hill". Julia Roberts...Hugh Grant. He's an average bookstore owner. Ugly, plain and simple, (if comparing him to say like George Clooney). And it turns out alright. So, just stop shopping for boys that spend more time in the mirror than you.

PS. Chace Crawford may not be playing on your team. wink,wink Rumor is he spends alot of time with NSyncer, JC Chasez. I'm thinking Mr. Bass wasn't the only g-man on the NSync team. SERIOUSLY, though, he was involved with Eva Longoria when she was just a soap actress (bf Desperate HW, of course). Anyhoo...I'm being a mean blogger today.

I Lied about my favorite tv shows...

My real favorite tv show is Gossip Girl. I downloaded very episode off Itunes and I watched it on my postage stamp of an Ipod Nano on the way to Texas and back. OMG, I am so addicted to that show. It's like 1 gazillion times better than Beverly Hills 90210 ever was. I mean Blair Waldorf makes Donna Martin look like a poor child from the wrong side of the tracks y'all.

These people are stunningly gorgeous and rich as all hell. And scandals start and stop and resolve very quickly. It moves lightening fast. Gossip Girl...why, as a blogger, did I not think of this shit first?

Anyway, my second omission on my Top TV List was The Real Housewives of NYC. Again, these bitches in NY are on a different playing field that those fake wives of Orange County. Again, this shows shows real money, and society, and put those 2 together, along with a muffin top bitch named Ramona, and you have one killer reality show. Fashion Week drama was my favorite.

Ok, so hope everyone has a good Monday.

How's It Going Out There People?

Hey,

Sorry it's been a while since I got my groove on and layed down some words to you party peeps. But I've just finished a "Bret Michaels: Rock of Love 2" marathon and I've really feelin' it. I mean, that show is so fuckin' awesome. It's like nothing I've ever seen before. It inspires me on so many rockin' levels. It's an experience I'll never forget, that 2 1/2 hours on my couch, watching those hookers make out with that 44 year old has been from Poison hair band days.

OMG, that proves I will absolutely watch anything broadcast on tv. And I am seriously so into it. Why do I care about this girl Daisy on the show and whether she wins or not. Tina Fey, on SNL, did an amazing takeoff on her. And some guy looks just like Bret Michaels on the show too.

Well, the real tv shows return in full post-writers strike force this week. What show am I most excited to see? The Office. I have missed me some Steve Carrell and whole office crew. If it turns out to be as good as some of the other shows first episodes back, it will be HYSTERICAL. I think "My Name is Earl" episode was perhaps the funniest one yet. Earl was in a coma after having gotten hit by a car again, and they tried to bring him out of it. So, Randy put a a styrofoam takeout food container covering Earl's face (remember he is in ICU hooked up to monitors and in a coma) and set off a string of firecrackers on his chest. Oh SNAP that was funny. Joy even put his comatose hands on her boobs thinking it would wake him up. "Sorry Crab man" and he replys "Oh Joy, you know I don't consider nothing above the waist cheatin'". That show is awesome.

Here's my tv lineup:

Two and A Half Men
Til Death
According to Jim
Flavor of Love
Survivor
The Office
Ugly Betty
Grey's Anatomy
30 Rock
Samantha Who?
My Name is Earl
Top Chef
Keeping Up With the Kardashians
The Soup
E! Weekend Update

and.....DIRTY SEXY MONEY. I loves that show. Loves It.

And let's talk about Idol. There are so many little rumors and what not about that show now. It's sort of pissing me off because there is really no surprises anymore and it's not so much nobody's out of nowheresville. Kristy Lee Cook, it turns out, was signed with Britney Spears Record label years ago. And she asked to be released so she could sign with Arista Records. And then they released her to sign with another label. She never cut a record, but did spend time in a recording studio, so she has had a little exposure to this life before. She and Carly both...so I wonder what we will find out from others.

I also heard that they may bring back a previously ousted person for the Idol Tour peeps...but they won't come back for the competition. I bet it is Danny Noriega.

I've been thinking about what these people do back at their hotel rooms each night, and here's my take on it.
-David A: He's alphabetizing his Pokemon Cards
-Carly: picking out the location on her body for her next big tattoo...a picture of Simon
- David C cracking open a beer and strumming his guitar, while someone continues to improve his hairstyle
-Brooke: On her knees, whispering her prayers, Bible clutched to her chest, as the clock strikes 9:00 pm and it's lights out.
- Michael Johns: Pouring over tennis wear contracts for his career as a clothing model for Adidas
- Jason Castro: zzzzzzzzzzz.........
-Syesha: Who knows, that girl is a mystery to me. She's like...I don't know...a mysterious mystical mystery

Did I forget anyone? I don't think so. Anyway. It's a big week for Idol...Idol Gives Back, etc. So that should be fun.

Bye now.

The Tiny Tunester is Out

Well, this week was really no surprise. As I predicted, Ramiele is on the cruise ship with Danny Noriega now 4-sho.

I was surprised that Brooke was in the bottom 3. And listen up...I would bet my last dollar that KLCook is out next week. I'm tired of her sad little attitude. Tonite, she put me over the edge with that little post it note. LIsten sister, if you want to be perceived as a little sad ass, then you will be, little girl.

Oh man, have you been watching the Flavor of Love? This shit is insane. It's like the best trash tv ever. EVER. It's embarrassing to admit I watch this crap. But I do.

Allright...

Nitey Nite.

News on David Cook

Thanks NJ Fan for the tip. Here's the story I found online:

-----------
A producer for "American Idol" says contestant David Cook went to the hospital because of heart palpitations after appearing on the show.

Executive Producer Nigel Lythgoe said Wednesday that the 25-year-old from Oklahoma had heart palpitations and high blood pressure near the end of Tuesday night's show.

Lythgoe says Cook was treated at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and did not require continued care.

Cook is due back for Wednesday night's castoff show.

------------
This show is seriously stressful. I mean my husband says my fingers are smoking when I type this shit. ha ha.

Here we go...Dolly Parton week...

Oh a mentor week. Wow. Dolly Parton. Not sure that really blows my skirt up. I just can't get into her music. It's uber-country, but she is an icon and just the greatest ever, but really, she was a better actress to me. 9 to 5 and Steel Magnolias. Great performances.

Brooke...well, she is as pure as the driven snow. Don't I say that every week? She's good. I like her.

David Cook...Awesome as usual, even with stuff that ain't even in his genre. I love his haircut.

Ramiele...I hate her outfit. Her hair has gotten better. She is so funny and tiny. Simon, come up with something else, other than the cruise ship shit.

Jason Castro...This guy is just so mellow and sort of what I call a dummy cat. Ooh, Dolly don't touch that hair. You never know what will come flying out of there. It's like doo doo rolls. I don't like it. Ok, now this fool has that freakin guitar up there, and isn't going to move one muscle on that stage. He's so afraid to get out of his comfort zone. But you know, he sings really well, but they better pass out cots and pillows at any of his concerts 'cuz I will be asleep 30 minutes into it. He does have THE most beautiful eyes.

Carly is going to sing "Here You Come Again". And Dolly loved it. Did you see Dolly is wearing a little tiara. Funny shit. Carly looks like she is wearing a pirate outfit. Like something Orlando Bloom wore in Pirates of the Caribbean. Weird. And those tattoos are too much for my conservative taste. She sings airight. Didn't blow me away, and no one will this week 'cuz this music was not so groovy. OMG< Simon calls Carly out that her clothes. I called it.

Hey, Michael Kors is sitting right behind Pauler. Look. He's right there. I saw him in the opening credits and he is sitting behind Randy. Rewind your Tivos. MK loves his Idol it seems.

David Archuletta...now look people. If he made a cd tomorrow with a bunch of songs written by John Mayer, I'd buy that cd in a NY minute. He has a great voice. No doubt, this kid will have a cd. But he's just too young for me to get behind. Like those Jonas Bros and Miley Cyrus have some pipes but I can't tune in to fucking Radio Disney. Pleeze. Back to DA. He's great. No question. Nice performance. Beautiful aura about him. Simon loved him.

Kristy Lee "I've got one foot out the door each week" Cook...will perform next. But you know what she is going to be good this week. Hey, she forgot her shoes. She's barefoot! Hey listen, this chick looks like a star. She looks like a young Faith Hill tonite. You know what, this chick is headed right out there to the Kellie Pickler school of "who cares if I win Idol, I'm headed to Nashville". Simon has CRS disease. He Can't Remember Shit...and none of the performances either.

Syesha...pulls a Whitney and Dolly "I will Always Love You". Beautiful version and she does a great job. She is a really good singer too. These people are really good in the top 9. There isn't really a stinker in the bunch. Oh wait, Michael Johns, the tennis player is up next. I don't like him...never have. Oh, back to Syesha.

Yo, check it out now. Randy don't likes no one taking on Whitney songs. Never has. He just doesn't likes it. Pauler, as usual, thinks she is Project Runway and judges everyones clothing, first. God, she is so lame sometimes. And they ding Sy for pulling Whitney as well.

Here's Tennis Pro wannabe...Ok, what is that pink and black ascot scarf thingy around his neck. It don't look like a bandanna, if it's supposed to. Actually, this is a pretty good performance. Thank God he couldn't sing flippin' Queen. Freddie Mercury is even sick of his singing I bet. Good job. Simon, says that this is the best he has heard, and I have to agree. but I think it might be because it isn't freaking Queen.

So, is Ramiele finally joining Danny Noriega at the mall this weekend? She gots to go.

And so do I. But I promise not to be gone so long this time. I have some fun travel stories to share, of course. No pigs on this trip though.

xoxo.

Hey everyone...

Back in California...and don't want to fly anymore!!!

OMG, I have been on so many planes in the last 5 days, I think I qualified for a Jr. Pilot license.

Sorry, Tink reminded me that I forgot to tell y'all I was unplugging for a bit of vacay. Went to a family wedding in Texas which was fucking awesome. My family rocks the house. We had some major fun at a Ranch in the Hill Country. Shopped alot, and ate like so much barbeque I can't stand it. Like tons. TONS.

Tonite, first meal back at home...I was craving spaghetti.

No Texas food.

Well, let's put on the Idol and see what the hell is up with these fools this week.

Hey, Ace Young has an album coming out in May. A rock and blues album. Mmm.

And Kelly Clarkson is back in the studio. And freakin' Carrie Underwood is like the Goddess of Everything in Texas. She dethroned Kelly. And they hate Jessica Simpson since she is dating Romo.

New post on Idol next.
