I have to say I was looking forward to watching this episode of American Idol 2011 until they started with the opening act of bringing in the contestants who had been voted off.  There’s a reason none of them are still singing for our votes and it was noticeable last night when practically none of [...]

What is the deal with the judges for American Idol 2011?  Did they all swallow a happy pill before the idols took the stage?  I was NOT impressed with anyone with the exception of James Durbin who rocked the “Heavy Metal”.  Finally we have a hardcore rocker to grace the idol stage but his voice [...]

Eliminated American Idol 2011 contestant Pia Toscano is going to be just fine.  According to multiple sources, Pia is in talks with Interscope Records about signing a contract however this has not yet been confirmed.  Pia did say in a recent interview, “I’m looking forward to any opportunities that are to come but I’m really [...]

I was excited for rock night on American Idol and I wasn’t too terribly disappointed mainly because I had a good laugh all the way through.  Will. I.Am hung out and helped the contestants choose their songs and then critiqued them during rehearsals.  He gave no great advice and basically hung out with Jimmy Iovine [...]

On American Idol 2011 last night the contestants took to the stage to sing songs by Elton John whom I love!  I already had it in my mind that we were going to hear a lot of ballads so I wasn’t nearly as disappointed about it as I could have been.  Pia definitely took a [...]

I was not happy with the American Idol 2011 Motown music last night.  The judges must have taken a happy pill before the show started because every critique was filled with praise especially with Steven Tyler who I find myself disagreeing with the majority of the time.  Everyone’s seemingly favorite, Casey Abrams was up first [...]

I have to say I’m more than a little disappointed with the rebirth of themes for the idol contestants for season 10 of American Idol especially after Nigel promised this was NOT going to happen.  I mean seriously!  Motown?  Don’t get me wrong, I know there’s been many awesome songs and singers come out of [...]

To say I’m disappointed with last night’s performances of the Top 12 for American Idol 2011 is an understatement.  The song choices didn’t work for the majority of the contestants and the mixes they put together for them didn’t sound good.  They had the vocals higher than the music and it came across way more [...]

The new American Idol 10th Anniversary CD is now available everywhere!  If you’ve missed your favorite contestants from years past, look no further because now you can listen to all your favorites on one CD. Each winner from the past 9 seasons are represented along with some runner up favorites like Adam Lambert, Clay Aiken [...]

I love the addition of Jimmy Lovine and his band of producers to the show.  I thought he must have been in a good mood this week because he didn’t give much heavy criticism but one thing he did too was show the contestants how to make their songs relevant to today.  This is a [...]
