Idol results - week 2

Due to the phone number incident, this week dragged out another show, I was ready for results night on Wed. And I bet so were you guys, so here they are, in order:

Nadia - yes, Nadia! - think it was the hair?? Lol
Mikalah - (resounding "whoo hoo"s all around)
And our little (yet tall) Russian, Anthony

I'm a bit torn because, while I'm ready to see her go, I wouldn't mind seeing her do one more spunky song. (Yes, I'm aware that I am alone in that). But on the other hand that Russian kid can't sing either AND he's smarmy. I can picture him in the future as a 40 year old man hitting on 20yr olds with a copy of People or TV Guide in his hand, trying to leverage his by-gone fame into some collegiate romping. Ewwww

They polled the audience as to who should sit down. I could only hear, Nadia!!!

But, no, it was the Ruskie. Incidentally, he positively swaggered back to the sofas. Cocky much? Don't get too comfortable, kid, you're next.

Dramatic pauses, blah, blah, blah - they booted Mikalah. She looked ready to go (although not in the horrified way she was last week) and she accepted it gracefully. I'm happy as long as its not Nadia. It was Spunkless Spunkerson's time to go. Now the rest of you are probably too busy doing the tribal dance of joy to continue, but I go on. There's more...

The Sausage was boo hooing like SHE was getting kicked off. They had the camera on her as much as they did on Mikalah. Sheesh - tone it down! I don't like looking at her when she's happy much less when she's all distraught like that. Pan away!! Pan away!

And the other thing that struck me was when they were counting down all the singers and highlighting the judges comments to collect our bottom 3...

Nadia and Mikalah were already pulled out and 3 people remained unknown on the sofas. They got to Scott and he kept his head tilted back probably praying, the whole time. You could see his lips moving rapidly. To me, it looked like he was chanting some mystical charm like Professor Snipe in Harry Potter. I'm (relatively) sure he wasn't but it was kinda creepy. I still like him, though.

On to the teaser: What did Paula do to get fined and more? Apparently a year or so ago, she hit a car on the highway and kept going. The driver took a digital pic with their camera phone and she was notified in December. She claimed she didn't realize it, but immediately accepted full responsibility and paid all of the damages. For hitting and running, she got $700 fine and 2(??) years probation.

Yes.... We are all doing the dance of joy now that "ding, dong the witch is gone". Yeahhhhhhhhhh. I must say that one thing I was absolutely baffled by is why Jessica was crying as if she got booted last night. Then the camera panned to Nadia and Carrie and they too were weeping. Huh? Hey, maybe they were tears of jubilation. (At least that is what I like to believe). Anywho, I agree that Anthony will be the next to go and if not him then it will be Constantine.

The only reason that I came up with as to why everyone else was crying is that they are like Linda. Linda has said she likes Mikala's personality but not her singing. So maybe she is really a fun and fabulous person and had become fast friends with all the girls though the process. Strong bonds can happen quickly through spending alot of time together and the stress of the competition. And they are sad to see them go.

Remember when they used to show the house where they all stayed together and you could start to see the friendships bloom and get a sense of some of their personalities. I wish they would do that again.

Anyway - I pray that Anthony is the next to go! And I hope Nadia blows you all away next week! ;)

Mere, well said. How different compared to the lunatic rantings of the "Ita"s above. Lol I agree with you eggs-actly! (Had to throw that in)

I forgot about the house clips they used to show. I liked those, too.

I'm sooo friggin tired today! TGIF
