Mik 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2004 Dude, you are the biggest homer I have ever encountered. Anything from Oklahoma is the greatest thing ever to you, isn't it? And for the record, I like George, but you're not winning him any more support on this board with your whining. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But he doesn't suck at all. He's quite good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course it is - and it's racist. There's only one Caucasian left. Although I suppose that's not what the Queen of Pop meant... Shoulda let John sing it out with "My Way"...

Guest TheArchiteck Report post Posted April 29, 2004 Yep, Johnny boy is gone. Took long enough! He sounded horrible every single time except his audition I thought. This week the girl from Hawaii sounded the best.....although the girl with the short hair is still my favorite. Something about George is weird.....can't put my finger on it.

Mecha Mummy 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2004 Shoulda let John sing it out with "My Way"... Seriously. They should let the finalists choose what their farewell song is. I liked John, but he was in no way deserving of being in the final six. I liked him when he did King of the Road and on movie week, plus his audition and Billy Joel renditions were serviceable, but he had way too many bad weeks to last longer than Amy or Jennifer.

Stephen Joseph 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2004 I just think its funny that next week is big band / swing week, and you know John wouldn't pwned Sinatra. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starvenger 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2004 I just think its funny that next week is big band / swing week, and you know John wouldn't pwned Sinatra. That's always how it seems to be, isn't it? Really, REALLY not looking forward to how Barbie smiles her way through it. I think George will have the most problems though. He's a good singer, but he hasn't handled the "challenging" (and for these kids, I think that big band WILL be challenging) themes very well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haVoc 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2004 I don't watch the show, but I follow it by the morning shows and E! News recaps. All the so-called "controversy" over that John kid made me want to vote for him and piss even more people off. People need to get a life and stop taking this crap so serious. Sending death threats to a 16 y/o kid? Damn middle American psycho house wives. And, Elton John is an idiot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damaramu 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2004 Did people really send him death threats? My god. I'm just up in arms because this recent incident with him staying and Jennifer going home shows the blatant bias that the show's hosts and producers have. It also shows how they say "American can choose whoever to win!"is total BS because when America starts choosing it's "Wait wait......we said you can choose......choose who we want to win!" You can tell by listening to the judges reactions to singers that they are trying to influence the vote and they know who they want to win. I don't know why they even go through it. They should just let the judges pick the winner because that's what they're trying to do. If you don't see that then you're pretty blind. Oh and btw.....Simon told that one girl she was ugly when she sung. He should've told Jennifer that. I was getting tired of her looking shocked everytime she sung. Plus she butchered Imagine and made John Lennon roll in his grave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
starvenger 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2004 Did people really send him death threats? My god. Apparently this was a morning radio show joke that got blown out of proportion. Plus she butchered Imagine and made John Lennon roll in his grave. Imagine is an easy song to sing, but it's difficult to sing WELL. It's one of those songs where, if you don't sing it close to the way Lennon sang it, it just doesn't come off well. Just my opinion though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OH JESUS CHRIST. *Slumps in seat.* Yup. That's next week's theme. Odd that it would be...AFTER Jon was eliminated. Indeed. Hell he had a good run, and the hate is undeserved. It's a freaking popularity contest and he played the game well. I think everyone's just a bunch of whiny wannabes complaining about RACISM~! A Native American, 4 African Americans, and 2 Cauc-Americans Yeah...that's racism allright. Jon did very well for a 16 year old, and he'll get a damn good launch on his career from this.

starvenger 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2004 A Native American, 4 African Americans, and 2 Cauc-Americans Yeah...that's racism allright. Jasmine's Hawaiian, not Native American. I'd have figured that the constant Hawaii references would've driven that point home, but whatever. Anyways, Final 12 breakdown was: - 6 Caucasians (Leah "LaBelle" Vladowski, Matt Rogers, Amy Adams, Jon Peter Lewis, John Stevens, Diana DeGarmo) - 4 African-Americans (Jennifer Hudson, Fantashia Barrino, LaToya London, George Huff) - 1 Hawaiian/Polynesian (Jasmine Trias) - 1 Filipina (Camille Velasco) Only 50% non-Caucasians!! Racism!! [/sarcasm] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

starvenger 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2004 Jasmine has said she is of Filipino, Spanish, and Chinese descent if that makes anything less clear for you. Hawaiians can probably trace their ethnicity to Chinese, Japanese, Filipino and native Polynesian, so no, it's not confusing. I made a note of Camille because she had mentioned that her family immigrated to Hawaii from the Philippines... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
