He’s the judge… and he didn’t know it.


Famous!

Today I wanted to talk about the guys on AI. Last week I gave my females’ opinion, but because they switched it up - you get girl talk again.

Jayson’s the judge, and he didn’t even know it. He actually watched again last night, and when he went into the laundry room he requested I turn it up so he could keep listening. He’s hooked a bit… whether he admits it or not. Unbeknownst to him, I took note of his comments. Here we go.

“If she gets kicked off, I’m not watching anymore.” Didi is obviously one of his faves.

“They’re on crack.” He did not approve of Michelle’s performance. Kara thought it was her best ever, and even Simon liked it.

“She’s got a little John Mayer in her. I like her, but I can’t watch her.” This is about Lily’s facial expressions. Some time ago Jayson had mentioned to me that when John Mayer sings, he looks like he’s trying to wriggle out of his skin.

Another Lily moment, “Feather’s in her hair?” Ellen commented that you hear people say, “You’ve got it,” Ellen doesn’t know what ‘it’ is, but Lily’s got it. “Feathers in her hair?”

“She’s got a fat girl’s voice, just when she talks.”  This was during Katelyn’s little video package. I don’t get it, but I laughed out loud when he said it.

“Are there any rockers on this show?”

“So many boring songs.” I actually agree.

My opinion - Thank you, Paige and Siobhan, for picking up the mood. And thank you Siobhan for hitting that wonderful high note that I had to rewind so Jayson could see it. He was fixing something in the bathroom and really wanted me to be impressed, but I was more impressed with you at this moment. He noticed.

I won’t repeat what he has to say about Kara. He is definitely not fond of her, even if he agrees with her. But most of the time he agrees with Simon, especially when Simon looks at Kara and says, “I have no idea what you just said.”

And finally, “He has 7 words in his vocabulary,” referring to Randy. At this point Jayson may have caught on to what I was doing, because he looked at me and said, “Go ahead. You can write that down.”

MY FAVES:
Didi, Lily, Katelyn, and yes… Siobhan that funny, odd, little thing.
Lee, Andrew, Alex (even with his awkward cowboy mullet), and Michael.

Hope you have a wonderful weekend. What do you have planned? I’m excited you are coming in April for the spin-a-thon thing. How’s the house stuff coming along?

LOVE ME,

And my very own personal, live-in, AI judge who got the downstairs bathtub to drain while I was swooning over Siobhan’s big note,

I’m the judge


Famous,

First, Jayson keeps saying that Simon is his hero. I love it. At least he’s watching AI with me!

Secondly, there are still too many girls to choose faves and try to guess who is going to get booted off. But my favorite judge’s line of the night came from Randy, and I think it was to Katelyn. He said, “I think you can go places and do stuff.” Haha, what a wonderful, in-depth, professional, and motivating comment.

Thirdly, in no particular order, here are the female contestants that I enjoyed (keeping in mind I have no musical profession or technical experience, so my opinion is just as important as Ellen’s).

Katelyn, Lilly, and Didi - all sang well and didn’t butcher or change up the original song too much. Katelyn did the best, but of course the judges didn’t love her as much as I did.

Haeley, Lacey, and Siobhan - all took a great classic song and did something a little strange with it, and as weird as they may have sounded, I really enjoyed it. Even if Haeley can’t hit the high notes and screams a little - she’s 16 and nothing about her style is predictable!

I’m excited for the male contestants tonight! I missed the week of Hollywood performances, so everyone of them tonight is a surprise to me.

Finally, last night I went on a short round-about rant about how inconsistent the judges advice is sometimes, but my rant was easily summed up by Kara (my friend, not the judge): “Don’t be predictable, but be yourself.”

HOW CAN THEY BE THEMSELVES IF YOU DON’T WANT THEM TO BE PREDICTABLE? And, not to mention, they are OK with some people being themselves (dreadlock girl). That’s all. If they keep it up, I’m going to be pretty annoyed. Not that my opinion matters to anyone but myself. But, it’s very important to me. And today, I’m the judge.

LOVE ME,

and my opinion, and my Simon-man-crushing bf,
