Silly me.
- Our American Idol blogger says Lauren Alaina picked the perfect time to blow out a vocal cord
- Updated: December 30, 2011 - 4:13 pm

Kerri Strug's injured ankle in the 1996 Olympics. Curt Schilling's bloody sock in the 2004 World Series. And now Lauren Alaina's blown vocal cord just hours before the American Idol finale could enter the discussion of conspicuously timed injuries that were "overcome" during high-profile victories.

- American Idol blog: The Top 3 only produced one "somewhat memorable" performance - was it Haley, Lauren, or Scotty?
- Updated: December 30, 2011 - 4:13 pm

If you wanted any more proof that this year's crop of American Idol talent does not match up with those of year's past, the performances of Top 3 on Wednesday night were that proof.
- American Idol blog: It has all come down to two country kiddies and a screamer - but which one?

Well my "pity vote" prediction was correct, but I gave too much credit to the "rocker" voting base and not enough to the country voters.

Whew!
- Our American Idol blogger says love doesn't hurt, Jacob Lusk's voice does
- Updated: December 30, 2011 - 4:12 pm

If Jacob Lusk doesn't get eliminated this week, I'm going to trade in my television set for a bullet-proof vest and go back to Compton myself, if that's what it takes for me not to have to hear him sing anymore.
- Our American Idol blogger hopes the Idol judges are still happy they saved Casey

- Our American Idol blogger says Wednesday night's episode was (bleep)
- Updated: December 30, 2011 - 4:11 pm

Thanks in large part to Aerosmith front man Steven Tyler and record producer Jimmy Iovine, Wednesday night's episode of American Idol needed to rely heavily on sensors' "bleep" button.

So when I saw that this week would be "Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Week," I prepared myself for a night of air guitar and adrenaline-pumping performances. Steven Tyler's intro walking us back through rock and roll history with greats like Paul McCartney, Jimi Hendrix and - of course - Aerosmith only fueled my excitement.

"Goodbye Yellow Brick Road," "Goodbye Norma Jean," and goodbye Naima and Thia.

Sorry Idol Viewers - Season 10 will not be the year of the Latin American Idol. America chose to send home the Selena-loving Karen Rodriguez during Thursday night's results show, and the judges decided not to save her even after her swan song of Mariah Carey's "Hero" - sung, of course, in English and Spanish.

Nothing makes me feel old more than when the American Idol contestants sing songs from the years they were born, especially when I was able to drive to the store to buy some of the albums when they first came out.

I have been to a "death metal" concert. I watched as Ashley Simpson resorted to an impromptu Irish jig after getting caught lip syncing on Saturday Night Live. And I have listened to my tone-deaf college roommate put Aerosmith's "I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing" on repeat and sing along with it at the top of his lungs, through tears, for an entire weekend after having a fight with his girlfriend.
- American Idol's Top 24 is finally set and our blogger makes predictions

The American Idol producers rode the Jacee Badeaux story line as long as possible. But after the chubby 15-year-old was eliminated at the end of Thursday night's episode, it meant that this season's ridiculously drawn out audition process was finally over and the American Idol viewers will now have the power to do what this season's judges could not - make good decisions.

Tuesday night could not have gone worse for Lee DeWyze, and it could cost him the American Idol crown that he was undoubtedly already getting fitted for after slaughtering the competition last week.
- American Idol is down to two, but our blogger is only rooting for one

Casey James is going to have plenty of time to personally answer all of the text messages he said he has neglected recently. Because on Wednesday night, the American Idol voters voted for what I have been saying for most of the season was inevitable - a Lee DeWyze/Crystal Bowersox final.
- Three contestants still remain, but our blogger thinks Lee DeWyze has already won the “Idol” crown

Tuesday night's episode of American Idol was probably the most meaningless of the season. But it was in that episode we received two of the best performances of the season - by the same person.

Instead of going back home to Texas to play gigs for $50 and a plate of free food, Casey James probably left the American Idol stage Wednesday night and went directly to Las Vegas.
- Our American Idol blogger thinks Casey James "screwed up" this week
- Posted: May 05, 2010 - 7:30 am

As American Idol came out of commercial break prior to Casey James' performance, the microphones caught this week's mentor Harry Connick, Jr. telling James not to "screw it up."

Tuesday night's episode of American Idol was like a sandwich where only the bun was worth eating.

Someone must have slipped something into Ryan Seacrest's low-fat mocha latte Tuesday night, as the American Idol host's behavior during Elvis Week was nothing short of bizarre.

Ryan Seacrest opened Wednesday night's show by warning us to "be prepared for a surprise or two" - two was about right.

What is arguably the worst American Idol Top 9 in the series’ history took on the catalog of the best song writing duo of all time - John Lennon and Paul McCartney - on Tuesday night. The result… mediocrity at best.

- The “Idol” contestants hit a new low under Miley Cyrus’ tutelage
- Posted: March 24, 2010 - 7:30 am
-
I bet that the American Idol contestants wish that it had been Hannah Montana and not her alter ego Miley Cyrus who was their mentor Tuesday night during Billboard No. 1 Hits Week. Because even if their only guidance had come from a fictional Disney character, things couldn't have gone much worse for the contestants - or viewers - than they did Tuesday night.
- American Idol voters get it wrong – again
- Posted: March 18, 2010 - 3:00 am

The American Idol voters better wake up soon, or this could very easily go down as the worst season in the show's tenure. And it would be a disappointing way for Simon's reign to end, because the show will never be the same once he leaves at season's end.
