American Idol in Seattle leads animals out the wrong door

curlio

2007-01-17 23:46:01

American Idol in Seattle had two themes - animals and again with the wrong door. Yesterday's Minneapolis episode had most of the contestants leaving through the wrong door.Tonight had quite a few animal references, with again a wrong door theme.

First up ws Brandon Groves, in all patriotic wear. If he looked familiar, he should, he performed last year in his sheriff's uniform singing "I Shot The Sheriff." This year in all-patriotic gear, he sang "God Bless America." Paula Abdul wondered if he was kidding. After a round of NO from all three, he left. Paula then said he'll be dressed as an indian chief next season.

Then came "The Hottness" aka Jennifer Chapton, who definitely overdid the collagen in the lips. She says she sounds like Mariah Carey and that people in high school started calling her "The Hottness" because of her spicey personality. Quite frankly Jen I think they were making fun of you. Anyhow, Paula told her she can't sing with gum in her mouth. After wondering where to put it, Simon Cowell told her to put it on Taylor or something. She sang Gimme Your Love, and Simon interrupted her telling her they wouldn't be giving her any love. He said it was a terrible audition. This led to a lovely exchange between the two, with her wondering what Simon knows about music. She sang again and just wouldn't take no for an answer. Paula had fun with it though. Oh yeah, at the end, she too tried to leave through the wrong door, just like everyone yesterday. Guppy Girl gives us our first reference, thought not actually on the show. She had an unmistakeable fish-like quality that just couldn't be avoided.

A small clip featured a lot of No votes from the judges, particularly Simon. Stay-at-home mom Amy Salgado was up next She says that while her six-year-old son is supportive, her husband is not. She thinks her husband just doesn't want her to go off to Hollywood. While talking about her lack of confidence she starts to cry. She goes in and tells them she will try to sing Christina Aguilera's "Reflection." She has had a cold for about a week now. Simon wonders what she sounds like when she's well. Randy Jackson says it was awful. Amy wants to get water and try again. She does so and Simon tells her the water made it worse. They argue a smidge, with the end result being "no" from everyone. She says her son will still smile at her and love her.

A montage of bad singers led to Darwin "Mischa" Reedy, the blonde bombshell. Her mother (who just happened to be wearing the black version of the wig her daughter was wearing) was with her. Darwin tells the judges she is writing about a singing competition (with her mother). Randy wants mom to come in with Darwin. Darwin will be singing "Don'tcha" by the Pussycat Dolls. Simon tells them they just need to swap hair. After Darwin sings, Simon just holds up his hand and says "no." She starts to sing Sweet Home Alabama. Simon tells her it was appalling. Mom said she's very nervous today. Simon tells them it was nice to meet them, and they leave.

Rain pours down as they introduce clips of lots of teary contestants being told "NO" by the judges. This leads to Thomas "Tommy" Daniels, who quit his job as a gas attendent. American Idol is his elevator to the top. Simon ask him something about sleeping behind trash cans and Tommy apparently did that while waiting to audition. This is his third time auditioning for the show. Randy tells him that the third time is the charm. He sang "Arms of a Woman" very nicely and was told that he sang very well by Simon. Simon liked that it was a non-obvious song. Paula told him it was soothing after their bad start in Seattle.

Tommy said he was confident during his place in line. Randy said he had beautiful tone. Paula had goosebumps. There was an adorable little bug-eyed dog that was getting some loving from the judges (it either belonged to Tommy or to someone in his family). Paula said if she and Simon had a love child, this is what it would look like.

Also bringing her dog was Melissa Stavros. She says she's loud and loves to sing. She wanted to sing "Hit me with your best shot" but someone told her Simon hates it. Paula asks her about loving to dance on tables which really got Randy excited. Simon said they won't be doing that now. Randy starts Melissa off with "I Like Big" and Melissa just follows right along and belts out the Big Butts song. Then she sang "I Turn to You" and she said she knew she was bad when she stopped. She got a no from all, and Simon wondered about the net thing she was wearing. After she left Melissa told Ryan Seacrest that she knew she sounded lika goat. Ryan asked her if she didn't always sound like that, and Melissa said she hoped not or her friend have been lying to her. All in all she was rather funny.

Next up was Blake Lewis, a spikey haired beat-boxer. He did some beatboxing (at Randy's request). He sang Seal's Crazy. Randy stopped him and Simon said he was good but over the top. Simon wondered if he is as good as he thinks he is. Blake said he's been doing it for 7 years, leading Simon to wonder why he hadn't been discovered then. Randy thought the beatboxing was better, but Blake picked the wrong son. Simon thought it was good enough to go through, and the other judges agreed with him.

A montage of bad singers leads to Simon telling David Mills that it's been one of the worst days they've ever had and he's one of the worst singers they've had.

Next up was the brother-sister team of Shyamali and Sanjaya Malakar. Their father is from India and is a classical musician. They decided to audition separately, and "argued" about who was better. First up was Shyamali, singing "Summertime." Paula said she was very nervous but she's better than she gives herself credit for. Simon says she's nothing unique or different. Randy tells her she just needs to find out who she is. She gets a yes from Paula and a yes from Randy. Simon says he's not jumping out of his chair but she has two yeses already. She told him she'd be shocked if he did jump out of his chair. Next up was brother Sanjaya. He says he isn't better than his sister. He is inspired by Stevie Wonder and sings "Signed Sealed Delivered." Simon tells him he's better than his sister and Randy agreed. Yeses from everyone, lead Sanjaya outside where he doesn't tell his sister who they thought was better.

Nicholas Zitzmann, a self-taught musician, was there to delight the judges with his rendition of Simon's favorite song, Unchained Melody. He says it has a nice range of notes and he can hit all of those notes. His co-workers encouraged him to try out, as they heard his instrumentals (but never his singing voice). Paula wondered what about him made him the next American Idol. Nick says he's a leader who can project himself very well. Simon wondered why he was different, but Nick didn't have an answer for that. Then Nick started to sing and it just went on and on. Simon ends the torture, wondering what the bloody heck that was. Nick says it was him and wasn't it good enough? Randy answers that it wasn't even close. Simon said that it was almost non-human (a stretch but still our second animal reference). Oh and we get a Forrest Gump reference too! After he leaves, Ryan Seacrest asks Nick when he will be singing again. Nick said maybe a year, maybe never, then after a paused added "That's really all I have to say about that." Nick said he has to watch his performance and see what he needed to work on. He added that he might scare himself.

The last contestant of the first day was Rudolpho "Rudy" Cardenas. He is in a band, based in Los Angeles, and he said he shouldn't have said that as they're expecting something now. Simon said that after today, he doesn't know about that. Simon stopped him when he was singing (a Journey song I might add), and Paula said 1 million percent yes. Randy joked that he thought it was an amazing song, Paula chimed in about the lovely bass part on it. Rudy got yeses from Randy and Paula, but said Simon was having a Bad Day, leading to... "Bad Day" by Daniel Powter as we saw clips of people getting mad at Simon.

All in all, 7 people from Day One made it, perhaps Day Two would be better, as the rain dried up. Simon, during a press conference, had a lot of not nice words to say about Seattle. That made new friends Kenneth Briggs and Jonathan Jayne not very happy.

First up was Bug-Eyed Boy, who says he sings and dances. He has been compared to Justin Timberlake and Lance Bass, and Backstreet Boys. Simon asked him if he thinks he can win. BEB says he can and will make their mouths drop in shock. Mouths dropped alright, in horror as BEB sang "Tearing Up My Heart." At the "I can't take it anymore" line, Simon said "nor can I" and stopped him. The pair of them had a lovely exchange about why BEB was there, that wound up with Simon being a smidge mean. This deserves an exact quote. Simon told him that he "look like one of those creatures that live the jungle with those massive eyes what are they called? Bush Baby". Paula tried to console him by telling him he was awesome and Randy added that he enjoyed it. They all agreed BEB wasn't right for the competition. As he left, BEB went out the wrong door (yeah more wrong doors!).

This led to Jonathan, and Simon wondering if he borrowed Randy's pants. Simon again asked if Jon could win, and Jon said he is different and has amazing personality. He sang "God Bless America" which Kenneth at the door thought was good. Simon said it was beautiful. Paula liked his spirit. Simon said he was nice and he likes him but this isn't his career path. The new best friends then complained about Simon's treatment of Kenneth in particular, with Kenneth saying Simon called him a monkey or something (animal reference number three!).

Eric Chapman, Taylor Hicks long-lost brother, showed up with salt-and-pepper hair. Eric is a hairdresser (and no doubt dyed his har) and says it's great looking like Taylor 'cause he's almost famous himself now. Eric says he has the Soul Patrol Twist Train going on (come on Soul Patrol are you going to take that lying down? FIGHT!). Anyhow, he tried to sing Drift Away. Simon wondered if he was serious, and wanted Eric to look him in the eyes swear on his mother's life that he was serious. Well apparently Eric's mom's life is in danger now, because he did it. He said people think he's Taylor Hicks (yeah, like anyone would think that once he started to sing). So Eric decides that he wants to do Simon's hair and takes out a jar of something and starts to walk toward Simon. Eric is interrupted by two burly guys who grab him and shove him out. That surprises Ryan who says they're security and wonders what happened. Eric says he just wanted to help out Simon and his hair, but Simon was scared.

Next up was a montage of height jokes, with Ryan either teasing or being teased regarding height. This led to Anna Kearns, who is 6 foot 4 without shoes. She says she gets a lot of attention and has wanted to be on AI since it started. She sang "Respect." Simon stopped her, telling her it was loud. Randy thought it was good, but loud. Simon thought she was old fashioned and cabaret and over the top. Randy and Paula growl at Simon, leading him to apologize for their unprofessional behaviour. Paula loves her, and Randy loves her so she is through. Simon congratulated them on putting "a giraffe" through to the next round (our fourth and final animal reference).

Jordin Sparks, 16, says she has been singing since she could talk. She was waiting to be old enough to audition for American Idol. She sang "Because You Love Me" by Celine Dion. Simon and Randy mumbled something to each other during the song. Paula said she loved it. Randy was blown away. Apparently her dad is some famous football player, I don't know football so someone else will have to explain that one to me. Anyhow, Simon said that he likes to put one sugar in his coffee, but that was like 11 sugars. He thought it was too cutesy and sugary for his taste (which Jordin said she understood). Randy said she is a natural and did everything perfect, Simon said she did well but not perfect. At any rate it was enough to go on.

At the end of Day Two, only 7 more people went on, making it a grand total of 14 from Seattle. This led to a montage of "Don'tcha" done by some of the worst contestants. Then the last contestant of the auditions, Steven Thoen, aka Red. He says that he's only seen one or two episodes of the show and isn't a big fan (leading to laughs from the crowd). He says he can hit high pitched notes. Simon asked him who he is as good as, and Red says the lead singer of Queen. He will be singing Bohemian Rhapsody. Randy and Paula couldn't contain the laughter, though Simon did a bit better with an occasional smile and smirk. He finally stops and Paula apologzies. He says he can do country too, but Simon tells him that was the weirdest audition that he's ever heard - like a 1 year old singing. Red says that's harsh and Simon says it wasn't harsh.

Red snaps back that he is out of practice and he just needs lessons. Randy wonders who should coach him. Red says that if Simon thinks he's so great, he should coach him. Simon said that would be like coaching a one legged man to sprint. As Red left, he naturally went for the wrong door.

And so, we ended the day, again with the wrong door theme. Next week we head to Memphis, where we hope we find our long-lost MemphisMomma to delight us with her tales of sorrow and happiness from the auditions!

	Jordin Sparks was really good and I think she could win the whole thing and be the" NEXT" American idol. She is the best I've heard in years.

	Hey Regulars, good to see you all again for another season of Idol. If I can get it done right, I'm reducing my screen name to just "Luv". Where's Nicole? I'm going through sarcasm withdrawls and need a fix. Still snickering about Nicole's "Ode To Elliott" from last season.... "I hope you sell more CD than that loose woman" ... classic! Yep, my wife and I liked Jordin Sparks, but there are lots of others who will be in Hollywood that haven't had much "face time" on camera yet. Looking forward to my McPheever's CD coming out in a few weeks.

Dusty can take of altering your name for you, if you desire. As for some of our missing regulars, Nicole was here last just before Thanksgiving. MemphisMomma has been AWOL since AI ended. momROCKS however was here a few days before AI started, so I think we can expect her back soon. And for everyone else - welcome back.

	curlio said: "1. Last year I was dismayed at the parade of fools and idiots, and received little or no sympathy from you lot. You'll get none from me this year - but I will tell you what y'all told me. It's there for entertainment value." If the public didn't love this crap - and the ratings get higher every year - the producers wouldn't air it . Is anyone here (besides me) old enough to remember the old TV show called "Real People" in the 70's? People did all sorts of weird crap to get on TV. That's what this segment of AI has become - if you are weird enough, you'll get put on TV. "I don't think any of those people who have auditioned yet are "mentally challenged." " I don't agree. I spend one afternoon a week at a special needs daycare. One of the kids looks a great deal like "lemur boy"...that look can be cause by a neuro-skeletal developmental problem.

	Wow! I didn�t think it was possible but I am a bit shocked after reading this on MSNBC! And I quote, �During the Seattle audition, the show aired a performance of �God Bless America� by Jonathan Jayne, who was criticized by the judges. The New York Times later reported that Jayne had said he had appeared in Special Olympics, an event for the mentally challenged. Ken Warwick, one of the show�s producers, said it was not possible to look into the backgrounds of everyone on the show.� Unquote! edit: Sprout - 2007-01-22 07:51:55 GMT - Never Mind!

	I also saw that Special Olympics quote. I heard that Jayne has a mild form of autism. I agree with the producer that it's not possible to check everyone's background. You want to blame someone for Simon's (and the other judges who have been decidedly less nice this year) treatment of that boy - blame the parents or guardians of the kid who allowed him to get into that situation. What person would willingly subject their mentally handicapped son or daughter to Simon Cowell? I firmly believe that if the judges know someone is mentally handicapped, they would be nicer to the person - we've seen Simon do similarly odd things before (remember when he helped the one woman get her job back after her crappy audition?). He doesn't completely lack a heart. And for the rest of the armchair critics who look at a couple of hours worth of footage and can immediate deem one person in there as mentally handicapped after seeing them for only a maximum of five minutes- take a pill why don't you. Remember the outrage when William Hung, who CLEARLY suffered from Down's Syndrome, was made fun of? oh yea, that's right - he DOESN'T have Down's Syndrome - so perhaps it isn't as easy to diagnose a mental handicap, seeing as it takes doctors weeks or longer to determine it themselves.

What person would willingly subject their mentally handicapped son or daughter to Simon Cowell? Completely agree with you on this point. However, parents might think that despite the autism or whatever � he should get a fair chance to audition and I am for that! I mean if I had a child with something similar and his desire was to be on a TV show � I would support it and I guess many others would do the same. Who knows? So I kind of understand where the rents are coming from. Like you, if I have to blame his near and dear � I would say that after 5 seasons, they should know that bad to average singers do not fare well in these auditions and yet they let him audition. Thankfully, they have not made an issue about this � at least I think they have not! And in that case, the media should not raise hue and cry about how the judges react! I mean come on � this is not the first year! I mean judges are darned either way, if they would have even whispered that Jonathan had a problem � it would have been a bigger scandal. Remember that trans-gendered scandal last year! Oy! I am glad about one fact that Jonathan did not use his shortcoming to gain any sympathy and that�s where I think he endeared himself (at least to me), because unlike his friend, he did not talk crap! Also Simon could have been a bigger bitch, his Randy�s pants is actually mild and thankfully his only comment after singing was �beautiful� and I don�t think Jonathan got the sarcasm. Randy and Paula were nice as well (well, as nice as they could be). Anyway, I used �shocked� for lack of a better term. I cannot really find the right word. However, what amazed (maybe the right word?) me (and not in a nice way) was the fact that many mentioned this (besides on this site) and I really don�t know what to think because I missed it totally! Go figure! And yes, in this situation, I totally agree with your candid views on the matter! At least Jonathan received some publicity and that�s a good thing, right?

	On a brighter note � Malakar Siblings have made a huge impact and many forums are buzzing with arguments about who is better and Sanjaya is sort of winning!

	I agree that the talented, regardless of handicapped, should be able to try out. And if their dream is to try out even if they aren't talented, then by all means I would support my child. Though I would make sure they are braced for any type of negative comments from Simon. What angers me is just that so many are just like "Simon criticized a mentally handicapped person" - like it was so obvious that anyone was handicapped. As I mentioned William Hung, I would have picked him as the handicapped one long before Jayne. He just seemed like the average overweight shy kid that we all knew in school. I had to go over my earlier comments several times as it initially came out a smidge more harsh than I intended. And I hope you don't think it was directed at you Sprout, I was more just angry at all of the other websites out there (news, blogs and otherwise) that were just completely beating up on Simon (and by now we should all know that I adore Simon) and the other judges for their harsh words. We're in Season 6 - we should all know by now that Paula's a drunk, Simon's a sarcastic ass, and Randy is that strange man you avoid in dark alleyways.

Beanstalk- er
	OOOOOOOOOOOOO! As the best friend of a person with an autistic child, I am outraged at those parents!!! Where were they?! I have seen what all my friend has done to try to get her son a proper education and to see that he be treated fairly and equally. I cannot believe that a parent would let their autistic child go through what Johnathon did, I don't care if he is legally an adult! With autisim, things can trigger regression. I have seen it happen with my friends child and he has a mild case as well. Of course we the public have to remember that a lot of editting takes place on these shows and parents could have been there. And comments that were made could have been about other folks, but editted in to look like they were made about a particular contestant. Publicity is publicity and Simon wouldn't care if his comments were taken out of context! Ok I have talked myself down now. I won't crucify these parents just yet......

If you can't be a good example, then be a horrible warning!

For that matter, after all of our complaining last year about teenagers (Lisa, Parris, and "Chicken Little") and their needing to wait until they finish high school to be a contender on AI, did anyone else notice we are going to be subjected to 16 years old again this year? Why would anyone subject their teenager to Simon?

	It is quite possible that Jonathan's parents thought he was a good singer. Remember the response of Mischa, the bra-less wonder's mother when Simon asked her if she thought Mischa sounded good?

	Hello, I really don't like these pre-Hollywood shows. What's really sad is I'm from the Northwest and to see the Seattle group representing us....well...it was just plain scary. I'm in the minority of people who would like to see more of the people who can actually sing, then being subjected to those freaks, and side show drop outs who think they can sing, or just want to be on TV? I think most just want to be seen on TV.

Actually, I don�t think you were harsh. But yes, truth can sometimes come across as harsh and you were extremely candid about how you felt.

Oh please! I don�t live in any delusions (?) that I will face the wrath of mighty Curlio.

I am too weak and too vanilla for your consideration. Besides, I think in this lifetime, facing wrath of one strong woman is enough; two and I might as well write my obituary! nudge

Ok, kidding aside, I sincerely did not think your comments were directed at anyone in particular. But since I broached the subject � Well, you know how I am and if you don�t, shame on you!

And please, Simon is a favourite punching bag, last year, it was all about how insensitive he was regarding gender confused individuals. One just needs a reason to beat him, but here�s the twist � the more Simon is criticized � the more he gets famous. So I don�t see him losing his sleep over any of his critiques or their criticisms. By the by, after The Donald, Rosie has now decided to aim her gun on AI! That should be fun!

LOL@Randy!

Shenova said:
Why would anyone subject their teenager to Simon?

Because as harsh as Simon might be, AI is a quick route to instant (if temporary) stardom! And in this day and age, any success is good success, because celebrities are more or less disposable in the reality television world. When was the last time Fantasia in the news? I rest my case! Besides, teens like John Stevens did pretty well despite not winning! So why should anyone not subject their teenager to Simon, if there is a pot of gold at the end of the sarcastic ass?! :)

Well, which rent is going to say � �YOU SUCK!� to a special child? One would be as supportive as one can be! So to Jonathan�s rents � he is a good singer. As far as Mischa is concerned, I seriously doubt that was her hair, but again, it is a patent AI theme. Mum � Daughter team, remember that psychic Bobbie May and her mum or Crystal Parizanski and her mum? And as far as Mischa is concerned, when one chooses, �Don�t Cha� as the audition song, they are not really serious � in my opinion!

Oh here�s a fact � Jordin Sparks already is causing sparks with her Wikipedia page, etc. Some have dubbed her as the Kellie Pickler of this season � meaning the one viewers love to hate! She apparently is big in competition circuit and is an over achiever and as per reality television rule, the underdogs have a stronger chance at succeeding than an over achiever. I dread the hate wave, if she makes it to Top 12. Besides, I don�t think Simon was all that impressed!

Well, though it would be nice to see singers with talent. I sincerely think that the show would be boring. You are absolutely right, most just want to be on TV and here�s where the fascination starts for viewers as to how low can one go to get airtime! Sad but true! But Yay! You are back, you were missed!

They need some industrial conditioner and a magnifying mirror to get the lipstick on just the lips! (or do they have hippo lips?) Nicholas Zitzmann and Jonathan Jayne were just sad.
