American Idol...Last Man Standing

The last male contestant on American Idol gets sent packing this week.

I know! I’ve been ignoring my American Idol blog! I have a good reason though. I’ve spent the last week in sunny, southern California at Reality Rally with close to 100 Reality RV stars. It was a lot of fun.

I haven’t been paying very close attention to American Idol, but here are my thoughts. Lazaro was on WAAAYYYY too long. I felt so sorry for him. I realize that the fans voted for him because he is so loveable, but that didn’t help him when he couldn’t keep up musically. It’s why the whole American Idol voting system is flawed. It really is a popularity contest, NOT a singing contest.

So at this point, all the guys have been eliminated. Not surprising…that seemed the goal all along, wasn’t it? We have a strong group of girls remaining with Candice seeming to lead the pack. I think she’s the most talented, but frankly, I don’t see her winning. I want her to win, but I don’t think she will. Hopefully, I’m wrong!

We still have two (mostly) country gals–Kree and Janelle. I really like Kree, but once again I don’t see the American Idol in her. I have this weird feeling that Janelle could pull this off. Amber is one of my favorites, but she was in the bottom two this week–not a good sign for her. Last but never least is Angie who just may pull a rabbit out of her hat!

So, what does this all mean? Nothing! I have absolutely NO idea which one of those five will be your next American Idol. I have to admit something else–I don’t really care. Ouch! Sorry, none of those five have reached out to me to the point of making me wait with bated breath each week for American Idol.

But I do love you out there–especially Dr. B’s class. If you tell me you love me in your comments…I’ll know you read this entire blog to the very end! Bloggergal
