Ah... Another episode of American Idol... I thought Kelly did really well on her first song. Other people who I spoke with didn't. I thought they needed their hearing checked. Then the judges spoke. I think they heard sounds from another dimension while I heard Kelly actually singing... Or maybe it was the other way around. In either case, her second song rocked.
I'm worried though. The American public is not rational, nor is it easy to guess the results of a "vote for the best" voting scheme. Nikki, again, did better than her usual (since her usual hasn't been very far above average for much of the competition). I don't think that should make her win, especially compared to Kelly. Justin gets my vote over Nikki, but I don't think he deserves to win either.
The key phrase there is "I don't think". You may think otherwise. I thought Kelly was hot as hell, sang her heart out (and did it extremely well), and came the closest to what I think the idol should be. I'd buy her cd. I wouldn't buy a cd by the others, though (unless Tamyra gets a recording deal).
And by the way, if one of you googlers who stops by happens to be Kelly Clarkson, feel free to send me an email. I'm a big fan and I'm not a stalker, I promise.
God I have to stop doing this... I sound like a twelve year old girl. Got to love kitsch culture, eh?
