AMERICAN IDOL

[gail]

update, i just watched the….

…

first show of the season/2025….

im only posted some of the singers, not all.. so, here ya go…..

I thought it was a nice intro, for Carrie Underwood, as she is joining as a judge. finally the “panel” is legit and not crazy or weird or out of control.

- Kolbi- too over the top with the runs,

- breanna- it was good but she looked very unhappy. not fun to watch.

- crews (yes, thats his name) .. pretty good, very nervous, but a very fun song. then it got super fun when luke joined in. (he sang “they call me the fireman”)

- a head banger guy, i forgot the name, but he does head banger stuff, just awful, but i cracked up when sweet little carrie was rocking to it and got up to dance and sing along to it. sadly, they put them through so that they can have someone to kick off later. i cracked up when Lionel said “I dont know how we fit you into disney night” lol!!!

- Baylee- the son of one of the “back street boys” sings a dumb sappy song but his voice is very good. they cave under the pressure and put him through, which was fine by me in this case.

- Gabby- not great, kind of weak, but they put her through.

- abi- she sang awful, turned around to avoid seeing anyone, yet, they put here through, lol

- ok, so, at the end was Slater—- sappy but good enough, but how can you say no after he made a song from a grieving mom’s poem about her dead son. he was her student. he wrote the song from her poem. she was so proud of him getting through as if it was her own son. it was a win for her, him and his actual family. I cried over that one and i dont cry easy.

here is the link for anyone that cares to hear it.
