Do we like Beyonce’s leaked song “Beautfiful Nightmare” or “We Break the Dawn” by her former bandmate, Michelle Williams?
Beyonce – More Pop/Rock, less R&B
Michelle – More R&B/Hip-hop, no gospel (see below)
Good battle!
My least favorite competitor keeps on doing the right thing. She nominated James and Joshua for eviction this week. The only way James can stay in the house is if he wins HOH or POV every week until the end. Then he has to hope the jury chooses him. Slim chances, but he should.
From the spoiler sites, James goes a bit crazy this week, thus probably turning everyone against him even more. Poor kid.
We’ll see what happens tomorrow night, even though I already know. 
I’m addicted. I can’t wait for August now. She might have a good summer hit with this one. “Umbrella” anyone?

I really hope this CD lives up to its hype. It is getting alot of press and Mariah will be flooding the TV scene both domestically and internationally soon.
Here is a preview of another track off the album. It is called “Love Story” and sounds good to me.
This is genius! A cover of a catchy Chris Brown song, With You.
They could play this version on the radio. LOVE IT!!!
Um, wow. This dance was crazy. I think I even saw Sabra from So You Think You Can Dance!
Bottom Three: Cheezits (not a surprise), Syesha (somewhat a surprise), Jason Castro (somewhat a surprise)
So Cheezits went home. I think it was inevitable. I don’t think he is marketable. He bored too many people and didn’t connect. He has a great voice. I think Syesha is falling into that trap as well. People cannot connect with her personality. She isn’t original though, great voice, just nothing special. Jason was just getting to comfortable; maybe this will be the shake up he needs.
On to more important things, Kimberley Locke. Um, was it me or was she STUFFED into that dress. Particularly her boobs. Not sure if last nights theme was prom night but Paula, Kimberley and Ryan were ready.
So lets see. Quick recap since I forgot to do it yesterday.
James wins the POV that was hosted by Dick from last season. They had to drink disgusting concoctions of nasty foods. The more they drank, the more croquet balls they got to hit and get points to win the Power of Veto. James beats Adam by 1 point and pulls himself off the block. Josh convinces Sharon to sacrifice herself as a pawn. Adam nominates Sharon.
Chelsia loses her cool and goes spastic. She freaked me out a little bit and I found it very childish. Poor James, he’s kinda playing alone now since the house voted unanimously to vote Chelsia out of the house. (I wonder if Chelsia and Matt are gonna do it in the sequester house?)
My worst nightmare has come true. Natalie wins Head of Household. If she wins this whole show, I’ll vomit.
Thank you Dlisted. http://dlisted.com/node/24811
“Those stupid ass judges on American Idol keep praising David Cook for being so f%^$^g original. The b%$ch is not original! He’s extra crispy! Last night, he sang Chris Cornell’s version of Jacko’s Billie Jean. Ryan Gaycrest credited Cornell before David Cook’s performance, but the judges still commented on how “brave” and “original” he was. Tell Paula to put down the freon tea, pick up a dictionary and look up the word “original.” David does do a good job, but they need to stop praising him for being a musical genius.
David also copied Incubus’ version of Hello and Doxology’s version of Eleanor Rigby. He’s doing what all the other contestants are doing. He’s doing a cover of a cover.”
I’ve said this before. I feel much better now. See below…
Incubus – Hello
Doxology – Eleanor Rigby
I can breathe now…He’s still good.
Ramiele Malubay - Alone
The curse of going first might hurt her. She also might have assumed she was safe until Kristy Lee did “God Bless the USA” which may save her (stupidly). Ramiele has a good voice and I think she did alright on the song, but I will continue to think she is not marketable. She won’t win. She will probably go home; I don’t feel that America really connects with her.
Jason Castro – Fragile
I still like Jason Castro, but I feel that we will never hear something “different” from him. He will always be poised to be signed to Brushfire Records under Jack Johnson’s guidance. Not too bad though, I’d take it.
Syesha Mercado - If I Was Your Woman
So, I still love Syesha. I think she is so pretty and she has an awesome voice. If only she didn’t pick such boring and obscure songs. I still think she deserves to stay. I don’t know how marketable she would be since she is very common, but it’s fun to see her each week. I much prefer her straightened hair (bonus tidbit). Ha
Chikezie Eze - If Only For One Night
Cheezits just bores me. I don’t think he would sell many albums. I don’t have much to say.
Brooke White - Every Breath You Take
So she messed up at the beginning; who cares? I think she did a good job. I love piano, but I didn’t hate when the band came in. I think that it was blown out of proportion. She sounded great at the beginning, middle and end. Get over the arrangements judges.
Michael Johns - We Will Rock You
What I liked or noticed about Michael Johns’ performance was that it appeared to be not just a “HS talent” show, but almost like concert footage. It was a big visual spectacle compared to the rest of the performances. His singing, or should I say, SHOUTING, was not that spectacular. He still bores me. Australian, too.
Carly Smithson - Total Eclipse of the Heart
Irish. Boring. Has proven she can flop a major label album. I just felt the whole thing was “safe” and not surprising. I wish I didn’t feel mean thinking she was over-rated.
David Archeluta - You’re the Voice
I felt this obscure song choice was not so bad. He was engaging and I wasn’t bored. I think it also might be that I wish I could sing half as good as this kid. It is so effortless. He did have a really SWEET crack in the middle of the song, but that is alright. He needs to be careful that he doesn’t always pick preachy songs though. David Foster might like this kid.
Kristy Lee Cook - God Bless The USA
Sans mustache, she was alright. She did the best she could. Like the judges said, she may have picked the only song that can possibly keep her safe this week. There is alot of patriotism going around nowadays; this song might make Ramiele go home first. Maybe Cheezits? Is she this years Carmen Rasmusen? Mikaylah Gordon? Camille Velasco?
David Cook - Billie Jean
I hope people realized that he didn’t arrange that song himself. He covered the Chris Cornell version of the song. I feel that he is good, but on the same token, he plays it “safe” doing songs like this. This is his comfort zone. The judges get on everyone else for playing it safe, but not David Cook? Lets be fair now. He’s still really good. He shouldn’t want to win though, he will do better without winning, kinda like Daughtry.
