be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,

posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out

Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue

"What about Gina she is my new fave" |
I do not see any threads for Gina so thought I would start one. Hate this board though you never know when you will get locked. I personally find it a bit annoying about this board. However, I digress....Gina was so great last night. This is the first time I have ever followed AI. Just nothing else better on TV right now, so therefore I watch this show. I would like to see some chat about Gina. After last night if she keeps it up, I think she might have a shot. opinions anyone?

First of all I hate that this is the first year you are watching AI cause its a craptastic season. Should have tuned in last year...it rocked. Second, easy enough not to get locked...just read the rules and follow them. Simple! Third, in this ho-hum bunch Gina is one of my top peeps. (I'm not gonna save favs because that would infer that I actually care about these people this year, which I don't.) She's not a diva and that puts her up ahead of others in my book. Stick around and have fun! A Tribe Original!

yeah I'm with you. she got 10 pts in my book just for singing Chrissie.and I also agree about the locked threads -- at least in some cases. I'm still upset, on some level, about a thread I made last year on a subject I cared deeply about. it was locked, and when I protested I got a stern warning about respecting the mods.
I do respect the mods. I am one myself, elsewhere. I can't even remember the specifics of the thread, but it had something to do with a behind-the-scenes injustice that had been done to somebody -- Constantine I think. I guess that I was supposed to talk about on some pre-existing Con thread? or maybe the thread about that episode? But I was upset about the underlying principles, about the ethics of the producers and the way they run the show. And I wanted to spark a discussion about that. Golly, watch me type. lol. It guess it really did upset me. All that said, I think this one is safe! It's the first for Gina, right? And thanks for making it.

Apology accepted. The warning doesn't go away, though. Now please stay on topic...

LAST EDITED ON 03-28-07 AT 04:57 PM (EST)*looks down* I've been loving Gina for awhile. Glad to have you aboard. *points up* the underlined words "complete guidelines" up at the top in the fine print are your friends. Read them, love them. Post enough and you'll eventually start a duplicate thread. I'm guilty of it a time or two myself. You'll get the hang of it eventually. Back to Gina. I love that she isn't just just another Diva. This season there are too many that are the same for me so anyone that stands out from the crowd a bit (in a good way) is getting my support.

Acknowledging Melinda's and Lakisha's superior vocal abilities, I find myself rooting more each week for Gina and Jordin. Do I think Gina can win it – no, but I do hope she outlasts most of the guys and Haley. For her to do well in this competition, she needs to pick softer songs and add rocker's edge to them. If my memory doesn't fail me, Constantine and Chris were voted off after their hard-rock performances that don't have a more general appeal. So, props to Gina and I hope she stays within the realm of this week's performance as I thought it was the best performance of the night.

Gina blew me away Tuesday night. I was so happy for her that she had her moment on stage when it all came together. I was so excited that the crowd went nuts for her! She nailed it!

I just want to say that I will miss Gina. I would have put her going out at somewhere between 4 and 6, not 9!She's also unique - I love the whole rocker chick thing she has. I hope she gets a record deal or some additional exposure. I think she can add to her edge (but not in an Antonella Barba way) and really get more mileage out of her image. Maybe like a Pat Benetar meets Pink kind of way. Good luck, Gina!!! 
I wish I had voted for you this week, but I was out Tuesday night. I voted for you last week, though!

I dunno what of the songs available would be good for rocking out to.It can be tough to know when to do something really different so you aren't boring and when to make it your style the best you can to please the fan base. I think people just didn't want controlled from Gina. I think people liked her best when she was a bit out of control. I think had she done the same song with some "rocker irony" styling to it even that song would have worked. Other girls could do it as vulnerable, but I think for her, with her fan base that may not have been the best way to go. Heck even if it had been more fully emotional like it was on Wednesday night it might have been enough to keep her in.

I"m going to get a lot of hisses for this, but I didn't/don't like Gina. I'm glad that she is gone. The reason for not liking her was not because she doesn't have talent (she does), but because she is a snob. She is full of herself, and from the way she acted towards other girls during Hollywood week. I gathered her to be a very unkind person.

29. "RE: What about Gina she is my new fave" |
I really am trying to find this. I struck out on YouTube, now I'm looking for written accounts.it was Perla, I guess? "Meanwhile, Gina Glocksen (aka Callie O'Malley) is stuck with Perla in her group. Tempers flare because Perla has limited singing range. And her bubbly personality doesn't help her when she sings off-key."
http://www.tvsquad.com/2007/02/14/american-idol-hollywood-round/ then part of a very very very long blog on the episode:
"Midnight, they head to the hotel for the total social breakdown that makes Hollywood so much fun. Another group is Gina, Perla, and girls named Melissa and Jessica, one of whom is the lonelygirl one. Gina complains that "one of us" isn't as talented as the others with harmonies, and that bothers her, and we see her trying to teach Perla the basics of music. Gina Don't Lie, dog. I know she comes off a little harsh, but I've liked her since last year, and I always like the harsh professional girl every year on group night, so I'm fine with all of this. " http://www.televisionwithoutpity.com/articles/content/a12827/index-7.html oh and then this is a continuation, from the same blog, on the next page ....
"0330, Gina and her group trying to get Perla together. At some point I think Perla suggests that they switch songs, and lonelygirl15 almost spits on her. She's like, "I have it down! Lyrics, harmonies, choreography! The only reason I am awake is because you are an idiot!" Perla is not feeling this, doesn't understand that she's the problem, because that's how you end up with a Perla: the ongoing feeling that she's not the problem, when in fact most of the time I imagine that she is. It's a vicious cycle. Gina's like, "Perla. When we all stop and stare at you, you get mad. When you ask for help or to tell you when you're off, we try, and you get mad. You are full of #####, sweetheart, and I'm at a loss." Perla denies, denies, denies. She's like literally too dumb to even have this simple conversation. Gina finally just laughs into the camera: "We're not...going to be friends, after tomorrow." I was over Perla about a minute after the first time I saw her, so congratulations on getting up to speed, Gina." And then go here to read the long recounting of the actual group performance. I'd totally forgotten about all this. http://www.televisionwithoutpity.com/articles/content/a12827/index-9.html this is the punchline: "Perla does her level best to, I guess, screw up the harmonies as horribly as possible. Why not just tell her to stay quiet on those parts? Anyway, Simon detects that she is the problem and tells her she's the only one of the four that is going home today."
