"Fame, the second eliminations"
Posted by mtopaz on 07-03-03 at 01:27 PM
I didn't see a previous post about last night's show, so I hope I'm not accidentally duplicating effort here.

I agreed with the two eliminations. I liked Raymond Lee, he was personable, but his dancing and singing were weaker than the others. Jamison also was likeable, but not a triple threat.

The girl who sang "We are Family" did not impress me last night. She should stick to show tunes, and I think she will be eliminated next time.

Alex Boyd - I definitely don't think this guy is a triple threat. He is very likeable, women obviously respond well to him, but his voice range is limited, and he would be better served as a crooner-style performer, and leave the dance moves to someone else. I think he'll last awhile longer, because of his appeal to women.

Shannon Bex has a great voice. But I'm sick of seeing her in nothing more imaginative than up-to-here mini skirts and singing in-your-face "I'm sexy" songs. I really liked her Tina Turner song the other week, but haven't liked her choices the past two weeks. I wonder how she would do singing Wing Beneath Your Wings - would she make me cry like Serena did last night? I doubt it.

Harlemm Lee - I love you! No matter what he sings, he owns the song. This guy has been consistently excellent, and I think he is going to win it all.

I disagree. I think there wer eothers who didn't shine last week and should've gone home (one who hasn't done anything impressive int he past two weeks).

First Jamisen Tiangco did not deserve to go home, maybe she wasn't as booming as Serena or creative as Harlemm, but she did hold her own.

Raymon Lee was pretty borderline on everything, kind of the sentimental fave, but he was faltering a lot.

Brandon O'Neal who I LOVED the first week, I thought was HORRIBLE last week and should've gone home.

Also, Alysson Arena should've been gone that first week. Lauren Hildbrandt should've stayed, along with Jemison Tiangco.

But we'll see, we still have Harlemm and Serena, two fmy three favorites still in the running. (My third was Jamisen)

Well, I finally caught the second round of eliminations on Bravo (phew!):

My thoughts:
Alysson -- sang well, but won't win
Justin -- MUCH BETTER WITH BEATS -- I loved the booty-shakin' end
Serena -- sang amazingly, but NEVER DANCES!!
Alex -- love his voice, but whatever
Moy -- rocked
Harlemm -- my personal favourite
Shannon - sang her ass off as always!
Brandon -- very talented; always picks a good song for his voice.

Who will be bumped? Alysson and Brandon (too many girls dig Alex...)

I agree, and I think Justin and Alex may go in the following week. However, I'm wondering about the new guy they introduced last time - since the audience couldn't vote for (or against) him last week, we know he'll perform this week and won't be eliminated. He seemed pretty cocky - it will be interesting to see what kind of performer he is.

I don't know if he was cocky or completely over-excited! He sounds like he has a lot of experience, so he could definitely be a threat.

Are they gonna bump 2 next week? If he gets to compete against 6 of the originals, that's pretty unfair (IMHO) for the others. I would be totally P@#$%ed off that someone gets into the program this late!

Not to be rude, but I completely disagree with your thoughts here. Alas I never watched the show so that makes a difference too.
