but the queen's just a pawn with a bunch of fancy moves.

grrr, you guys, if the spoilers for the top 24 of idol are true, i'm not happy! everyone i found remotely interesting/appealing was cut! drew (farm boy), colton (cute little country/rock boy), kyle (nerdy future president guy), josiah (they haven't shown his audition but he's this kooky piano dude who seems fun) and michael sanfillipo (also not shown but his band sounds rad!). BOO. :(

in other AI news, in case anyone cares: i've decided that i like carly, even tho i hated her audition. (the singing, i mean.) i've been inclined to not like her because she had a really big record contract a few years ago (well, in 2000, i think?) and her album literally sold, like, 350 copies (not kidding). so i'm like, well, she had her chance and it didn't work out, give someone else a shot. but then i think about how bad i feel for people like gina glocksen, who make the top 10, go on tour, play to arenas, and then...nothing. and i think of how awful it must be to have had a contract and put a CD out and feel like you've made it, it's all happening, you can be happy...and then to fail miserably and go wait on line for hours with a gazillion people and throw yourself on the mercy of producers and judges and then, y'know, america. and i feel for her. i think she oversang the FUCK out of "i'm every woman," but hopefully someone'll calm her down about that and i can actually, like, enjoy her singing.

so. this is what i thought about today, lol. *productive*

These spoilers are an infinite amount of fail. Where is my hot, sexy farmer boy? And where is Brandon? Colton Swon? Those were my 3 favorites so far. UGH. :(I don't really care about any of the girls, except I think I pretty much love Brooke White. That's actually surprising because (with the exception of Carrie) I usually don't really go for the girls on Idol.

I'm still willing to give this season a chance, but I can't help but feel like they really passed up on some really good, interesting people. This is Nigel were' talking about though, so I suppose I shouldn't be surprised.

brooke white is way too precious for me (you're the second person who mentioned her, and since i didn't remember who she is i looked her up on youtube, lol), but for your sake i'm happy! i don't care remotely about any of the girls except for my ambivalent interest in carly.

gah, i want the spoilers to be wrong. :(

i want them to be wrong too :( there were a lot of different spoilers on IDF. all of them said they had different "sources", but none of them matched up. the list posted on MJ came from a poster that is supposed to be pretty reliable. idk. i'm kind of hoping she's full of crap :/ i just really wanted a country boy this year. that jason castro guy seems pretty interesting though.

atleast we still have blake!
