He really really sucked last night.  He is a great singer, but is 
limited to certain genres.

Ok, I wasn't so suprised that they didn't vote anyone off because of 
the Corey Clark thing.  However I was SHOCKED at the bottom three.

I don't think Trenyce should have been in there at all, imho

hahahahahaahaha
Ok here's the scoop.

Bottom three:  Kimberly Locke, Trenyce, Carmen

Kimberly Locke was then sent back to her seat, so it was up to Trenyce 
and Carmen.  So they both sang their song again, and after the 
commercial at the very end of the show, they said because of the Corey 
Clarke thing, everyone was safe this week and no one was voted off but 
next week the voting scores would be added to this weeks and there 
would be someone voted off this week.

I think Trenyce is one of the best up there, so I am in shock about 
that.

When they asked the judges whether or not they agreed with the bottom 
three, none of them did, especially Simon.  He said "I think there is 
someone up there sitting on the couch that should be in the bottom 
three and he know's who he is."  I think he was talking about JOsh, but 
Ricky was quite nervous about it.

When they announced they weren't voting anyone off, Simon looked quite 
suprsised, but I don't know if that was scripted or not.

the key words are probably "actively" and "on a regular basis."

I can't watch it for longer than about 30 seconds now.. some are 
genuinely skilled, but I'd rather skip the drama.  Last time Julie had 
it on.. who was Mr. Fro?  sorry, I totally disagreed with her 
assessment of his performance of EW&F's "Let's Groove Tonight."

On that note, I have to admit that even "Star Search" was a bit of a 
disappointment.. on the few shows I saw, you could really see that the 
judges clearly had obvious biases sometimes, with wildly differing 
scores.

Sapna, I just said I really don't watch the show.  I saw enough bad 
attitudes, immaturity, and what not that I just tuned out.  If this 
unprofessionalism somehow makes good television, whatever.  I 
understand Simon is there to provide more dramatic tension, and he's 
right-- some of these kids really are BAD-- but I find his personality 
grating at times.

The opinion I didn't agree with?  That would be Paula Abdul.  (Some 
people should not sing falsetto.)  I don't think highly of her singing-
- she's fine, but I wouldn't say she's super superb-- but I would say 
she's a hell of a dancer.  I wouldn't mind hiring her as my 
choreographer, if I could afford the fees.

(Now I do have to admit they might have better judges than they do on 
Star Search.  Then again, the Idol judges might have it a slight 
easier-- they give subjective comments, while the Star Search judges 
have to give numeric ratings.)

Ms. Abdul might be there to take the edges of Simon's bluntness-- I 
don't know.

Although the kids might not remember this star, I think they should 
add Taylor Dayne to the panel.  Julie tells me she was classically 
trained, and I think that adds depth to her R&B-tinged career.  Having 
had voice lessons myself, I think a classically trained artist is 
better able to judge clarity, projection, and intonation.  I 
understand that vocal artists need to have a unique sound to carve out 
a niche, but they really need to learn these basics.  I can't count 
the number of times I've heard crazy chicks on the radio or whatnot 
trying to copy the current R&B vocal gymnastics but have zero skills 
in these three basic areas.

Think about it-- although sound engineers can sculpt your voice to 
sound fab in the studio, and image consultants can make you look super 
on stage, I don't think artists will last long if they don't have some 
honest skill (as well as some social relevance).  Money is made 
primarily in the concert venues-- studio and video work is a thinly 
sliced pie.

Well, as usual, I think Rueben was the best.  I completely disagree 
with Simon on Trenyce.  I still think her, Rueben and Clay are the best.

However, Kimberly Locke keeps getting better and Josh was quite good 
last night.  If I had to guess, I would say Carmen is outta there this 
week.  Because they are combining it with last weeks score, I"m not 
sure really what is going to happen.

Ricky was better than usual I thought.

I really liked Josh's song, it really fit his voice.

I agree with you about Kimberly, though, as much as I like her too.  
She's just got something about her.

Well, I have to say I was a bit suprised but not upset that Ricky got 
voted out.  Him, Kimberly Locke and Kimberly Caldwell were in the 
bottom three.

I really think Carmen or Josh should get voted out soon.

One more thing.  My hubby thinks the reason Josh didn't get in the 
bottom three last week is because he's getting the military sympathy 
vote. :)
