American Idol Group Two SUCKED…
3:22 pm, 26th Feb 2009
Read the whole recap here on TV Grapevine. Here are some random quotes excerpted from my blog. I had to fast forward through some performances, they were so blech:
Ryan is wearing a black polo shirt and jeans. Why he’s dressed like a computer programmer running errands on the weekend, I have no idea. It’s also bizarre to see him wearing short sleeves in the dead of winter….
…Matt Giraud sings “Viva la Vida” by Coldplay…. He is singing a rock anthem as a Justin Timberlake song. EWWWW. Why? It’s effing bad. I’m severely disappointed because I pointed him out as one of the ones I was looking forward to last week. Oooooops.
…Next we have a girl [Jeanine Vailes] who hasn’t been shown much throughout the season. Who is this chick?! She looks like a man who had surgery to look like Leona Lewis.

…Good God, Norman Gentle sings Dream Girls AGAIN and is wearing his sparkly shirt/khaki shorts/sneakers/sweatband outfit with a white tuxedo jacket. They cut to his parents, and his dad looks like he wants to hang himself.
…Kris Allen is a guy who should never wear anything collar up…. He looks like David Archulet’s untalented older brother. The only thing worse than his hesitant performance are his Kids Incorporated dance moves.
…Next is Megan Corkrey. She’s one of my favorites and the judges’ favorites, and I just hope she doesn’t disappoint…. It’s like watching a puppy compete on Fear Factor. You love the puppy and you root for it, but it just shouldn’t be there!!!
…Adam Lambert sings “Satisfaction” by The Rolling Stones. He is brooding and sexing it up for the camera so much I want to throw up. I wish he would: a) stop singing like he’s in a musical b) dancing like he’s in a music c) trying to look like a rock star d) moisturize. By the end he’s singing higher than any girl has sung in the competition (but on-key, so it’s ok), and there is an appropo rainbow video screen flashing behind him.
Yeah…I’m not really rooting for anyone here. Allison Iraheta was the only one who brought it. And I love Megan and Matt, but they just didn’t do it for me at this stage in the game! Plus, I feel there were definitely more deserving people in Group One (Anoop! Anoop! Anoop!) who deserve a spot over whatever the top 3 shakes out to be from this subpar group.
