American Idol

So I watched American Idol tonight knowing I want David Cook to win. His voice is just more my style, but then David Archuletta was amazing. I wouldn't mind seeing him win. What I'm left with is a lot of confusion. Either way, both will make an album - I'll buy David Cook's album and most likely will not buy David Archuletta's album. One thing that is good though is how Archuletta has been a great "Mormon" spotlight person. With all the crap going on with the polygamists it's nice to see someone who represents Mormons well. We all know the polygamists are not Mormons but the media doesn't always point that out. Archuletta has made us proud!

I noticed that David Cook lost the pitch several times tonight. It bothered me that the judges picked a winner. I would buy either David's album. The other thing that bugged me about tonight was the whole boxing theme. What was that? Why did they say the guys' weights? Would they have said Sayesha's weight? Strange.

Do we need another Clay Aiken? My vote is for David Cook because honestly, do we need another gay Christmas cd?

David Archuletta is not gay and he does not resemble Clay Aiken. However, I will agree with the general populace that Clay looks like a girl. Someone needs to call Stacey and Clinton on him.

Someone else mentioned that they thought Archuletta was gay and I quickly told them I think not. Anyway, I sent Shanon a youtube video of Archuletta singing "Mary did you know?" at an obvious (obvious to me anyway) church Christmas party and I loaned her Clay Aiken's christmas CD -- and I know she loved it. :) -- I do want David Cook. I just think he is so much more marketable and he's worked the system (singing at clubs, etc.) so he deserves it. I do like Archuletta's voice but he'll still do well even if he doesn't win. His voice just isn't my style. Crap. I need to download the songs off of itunes. They are only up for a few more hours....

Brooke, I think that was my dear husband that told you he thought Archuletta was gay. And Madi said he absolutely wasn't. She loves him.

I would be glad to loan any of you my William Hung CD. Remember him? "She bangs, she bangs". It's all cover songs and inspirational words from our favorite Asian.

Bon Bon mom knows that Abe and his sister Angela are my favorite Asians. They love Joel as well. :) But I'd still love to borrow your CD. They're sold out here.

William Hung got so much more than his alloted 15 minutes of fame. And Abe and Angela HAVE to be Brooke's favorite Asians because she's their secret Mom.
