two quick
american idol complaints while my stolen wireless holds up. (i should be home tonight, yay!)
01. i knew carly had a big ($2 million) record contract previously and all, but i didn't realize that
randy jackson was the senior vice-president of A&R at the time. sketchy, sketchy, sketchy. i was willing to overlook the contract, but the connection to randy seems wildly inappropriate.
02. this

Next week’s theme: Songs from the 60’s. It’s the first time the semifinals will feature a theme. According to Nigel, the producers made sure the singers will sing more familiar songs. Says Nigel, “These are the 50 songs you can choose from the 60s…as opposed to letting the semifinals pick a potentially obscure song or one that doesn’t get cleared and they’re forced to swap out at the last second.”
HATE HATE HATE. i've always loved the semi-finals because they give people a chance to show the kind of the music they really love; the kind they sing the best and that they'd want to make in the post-
idol world. god forbid anyone pick something as dangerously obscure as fucking jamiroquai or 311 again, right? OH NOES WHO ARE THEY?!?! *eyeroll x a million* so now we get three extra weeks of bad covers of "i can't help myself" and stevie wonder and leanne rimes or whatthefuckever.
in happier news, plz enjoy travie and patrick's dog and 3 seconds of patrick.
