American Idol: The First Cut, Brandon Rogers Gone, Sanjaya Hanging In. WHY?

brandonrogers.JPG

This is the first week of American Idol with the final 12 contestants decided last week. The men have not fared well, and many wonder why Sanjaya is still in the competition with his weak voice and mediocre performances. So far Melinda Doolittle and LaKisha Jones are frontrunners to win the competition, but it’s still early.

This week the contestants got to spend some time with superstar Diana Ross and each chose a song from her repertoire of hits. Diana performed “I Love You More Today Than Yesterday” from the Spiral Starecase on tonight’s show off her new album, I Love You she didn’t sound super great, but she’s looked the best she has in years, considering her rehab battles and well, her age. As Simon would say, she sounded like a “cheap cabaret version of Diana Ross” and Randy might have noticed that she was a bit “pitchy.” But whatever, she’s a diva so who cares.

Ryan asked Diana who she thought was going home tonight, her response: “I am.” She’s gracious. Let’s hope that beeyotch J-Hud takes notes.

Several contestants forgot their lyrics. But for Brandon Rodgers, 28, who sang “You Can’t Hurry Love” nerves got the best of him and America said hit the road. I would rather have 12 Brandons than one Sanjaya.

Who are these jackasses voting for this kid? Besides, his hair is poofy is a non-manly way. I am not hatin’, just pointing out the obvious.

  1. Umm, sorry but J-Hud had been nothing but gracious. Saying a show has been a stepping stone for here is in no way a dis. It’s a shame that people like you build celebrities up just to tear them down. Don’t hate because J-Hud is doing her thing.I suggest you read this: http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=22135156&blogID=240882238

  9. Lindsey, Jennifer Hudson said that Simon Cowell had been rude to her, and the video record showed that he’d been *nothing* but nice, including saying clearly that she was the best that year, and it was the viewers who voted her off.

    That’s ungrateful and ungracious, no matter how she tries to spin it now.

  11. Oh please! I am Indian and I can tell you that I don’t vote for Sanjaya because he is out of his league in the competition. His performances are lackluster and boring, and poor fellow, they keep styling him like a 14 year old girl.

  13. His hair is killing my soul. Do they want him to look totally gay? Don’t misunderstand me, I don’t care in the least if he is gay, I just don’t know why they want him to go down in flames, if you will.

    I feel sorry for him, but not enough to vote for him.

  15. Some people act like America Idol is the Holy Grail or something. Sorry, but Jennifer does not owe the rest of her life and success to that show. Remember, she had to go up against 758 other candidates to get the role in Dreamgirls.It wasn’t just handed to her.Idol was a stepping stone for Jennifer. Nothing more.Nothing less.Simon is not God and she does not have to kiss his feet for the rest of her life to show she is “gracious”!

  17. the only reason he’s hanging in there is because votefortheworst.com is working its beautiful beautiful magic. many people do not care about american idol any more, or take it seriously, and this is the result.
    hopefully this season goes so badly the show doesn’t return next year.
