I just watched it on DVR last night, and because a certain cross-dressing untalented hack isn't performing until next week, I don't have to shoot myself until then.Anywho...
Johnny Lonestar: Nice rope show. Does he have anything else in his repertoire?
Grade: B
Julienne Irwin: I was really glad they picked her over that blond. She's incredible.
Grade: A-
Kevin James: For an incredible magician, he sure crapped the bed under pressure.
Grade: F
Robert Hatcher: It would have been nicer if he didn't sound like he was speaking instead of singing.
Grade: C-
Jonny Come Lately: We get it; they're a teen band with goofy hair. Now stop singing in fast-forward and pick better songs.
Grade: C
Kashif: I'm sure his moves are spectabular in India. They don't translate here, and the show is called America's Got Talent, not India's Got Talent.
Grade: F
Butterscotch: The opening sounded like a broken kazoo. Then she sang and beatboxed at the same time. Is that even possible?
Grade: A-
Sideswipe: Good moves. Excellent sync. Keep it up and you'll work your way up to hawking instructional videos at 5 AM on FOX Kids.
Grade: B-
Manuel Romero: Excellent singer. Could be a great one. Also might make the teenage girls forget about Sideswipe.
Grade: A
The Glamazons: OK, I get it. They're bigger females with whom Piers is madly in love. Now show that talent with some better song choices.
Grade: A-
Should go forward:
Johnny Lonestar - he's a bit repetitive, but he's good
Julienne Irwin - perhaps the next LeAnn Rimes...then again, I'm not a fan of Rimes
Butterscotch - she mumbles a bit, but she can sing and beatbox at the same time
Manuel Romero - he's just that good
The Glamazons - their only fault is their song choice; other than that, I have no complaints
Will go forward:
Johnny Lonestar - the audience isn't sick of the rope tricks yet
Julienne Irwin - they love young female singers
Jonny Come Lately - all the kids will want someone to identify with
Sideswipe - all the teenage girls will vote for them
Manuel Romero - OK, so talent counts for something
Raw deal alert:
Butterscotch - she comes off as having a bad attitude, and the voters won't go for that
The Glamazons - no matter how good they are, they don't purge every time they eat a rice cake, so they lose the all-important Hollywood vote...sad but true
