OMG!!!!!  I can't believe I'm seeing this in print! Does someone have a fainting gif handy? To add to the above quote from Randy, Jlo said Joshua was one of the best singers she had heard in the last fifty years!  This schtick hasn't gotten old yet? Must be just me :  . Between Randy's comment and Jlo's comment about the last fifty years, it just goes on and on! Add to that, a couple of weeks ago, all three judges said that P2 was the only "artist" to ever grace the Idol stage!  I'm right there with you, it's getting old! As mean as Simon was, at least he would call his favorites out when they did a sub par performance. He called Adam out on some things a few times, but he actually had really favorable comments towards him as a whole! Remember how humble and gracious Adam was? Remember his countless number of times he said "Thank You" to the judges? Not this year! It's almost like the compliments and praise have been so frequent and OTT, that the contestants are numb to them. |

Adam mention www.mtv.com/news/articles/1684401/american-idol-joshua-ledet.jhtmlIs Joshua Ledet The Best 'American Idol' Singer Of All Time? 'He's really good and probably the best singer of the last three or four seasons,' one 'Idol' expert tells MTV News. Just about every season of "American Idol" seems to have at least one: a singer whose talent is so impressive and complete that their weekly performances come off as effortless. Whether it's winners like Ruben Studdard, Fantasia or Carrie Underwood, or runners-up like Adam Lambert, Oscar-winner Jennifer Hudson or Chris Daughtry, these finalists make it seem easy. So, is Josh one of the best "Idol" singers of all time? Or just one of the best singer ever, period? We convened a panel of "Idol" experts and asked them to weigh in. "Idol" blogger MJ Santilli said it is undeniable that Josh is a gifted singer, but she begged to differ with Tyler's claim that Ledet is one of the top "Idol" contenders. "Adam Lambert, Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, Fantasia, Ruben Studdard are, arguably, better singers," she said. "When Joshua is excited, he has the tendency to push his vocals to the breaking point. He's had missteps along the way -- his 'gospel' rendition of Billy Joel's 'She's Got A Way' was a hot mess of over-singing." more... OMG!!!!! I can't believe I'm seeing this in print! Does someone have a fainting gif handy? To add to the above quote from Randy, Jlo said Joshua was one of the best singers she had heard in the last fifty years! If I remembered correctly she never denied that Adam's an amazing voice or the fact that he's a great performer. I think she just try to be in the neutral zone, but she definitely not a fan of crazy glamberts... LOL |

Happy birthday cookeejar,laceyrose,and 4lifecrisis!
Listened to Joshua and Jessica after Adam's tweet... Good voices, but not half of Adam's charisma and charm, and that is important as well.

I'm thinking Adam may have been trying to say that AI is supposed to be a singing competition, not that it IS. Cause it ain't.

To be fair to Steven, he said one of the best two Idols ever. Which left it open for everyone to interpret their favorite as the other of the two. But Jennifer said the best singer she's heard in 50 years. Really?!!!! : What ridiculous hyperbole. Has the woman never heard Ray Charles? Are Stevie Wonder and Elton John unknown to her? How about Neil Diamond? Paul McCartney? Sam Cooke? Roy Orbison? Barry White? Marty Robbins? So irrelevant! DH and I had a fun time the other night going through the list of "inferior singers" to this 19 year old kid on AI in the past fifty years! |
