zzz 703 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Reality Show Commentator" 04-21-03, 09:24 AM (EST) "Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" According to Mancow this morning (4/21/03) on the radio--Kelley Clarkson stated that she knows who the next American Idol is going to be, and Mancow claims it is Ruben. Do people really think that he has been so far ahead in the weekly voting that it is very clear he will win--or does Clay have a realistic chance at an "upset." I don't see anyone else that might be able to beat Ruben, but I think Clay has a chance. But if Kelley has inside information that indicates this will not happen, that is really too bad. I think Clay is a much better and more interesting singer than Ruben. Ruben is boring to me. Does everyone think Ruben has it locked up?   Top

Kimberly Caldwell was on our Fox affiliate about 15 minutes ago and said that she thinks Ruben will take it, too. If it's not rigged, I think it's between Clay and Ruben. The judges, however, never comment negatively on Ruben and this has got to sway a few of the phone in voters.   Top

SaphireLady 2491 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Seventeen Magazine Model" 04-21-03, 11:54 AM (EST) 2. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" If this is all true, then any other season of AI will not have me watching it. Ruben is not a great singer. He is one, two at most, sided singer. He sing the same style over and over and over. He also has not ability to answer questions, to amuse, to entertain, other then singing the same type song. So just what is the attraction to this man. "Now I will believe that there are unicorns..."

Bebo 21083 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-21-03, 12:18 PM (EST) 3. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" According to Watch With Kristin's column on EOnline, Clay and Ruben are the two most consistently high performers in the weekly phone-in polls. The producers get to see all of the results of the fan balloting. That way, when it's time to get someone to write the single for the Idol winner, they have an idea what kind of song to do, not just a generic one. So you can pretty much bet at this point that the first single released will be a ballad. http://www.eonline.com/Gossip/Kristin/Archive2003/030418c.html Bebo says...919 beats 205 - I am your American Idol and the Baroness of Babedom.   Top

managerr 1959 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Herbal Healing Drugs Endorser" 04-21-03, 12:59 PM (EST) 4. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" Actually the single is already written and they have claimed it's an up tempo song that will showcase the winner's "dancing skills". I'm sorry I can't provide a link--I know I did read it somewhere though....   Top

joannie 380 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Cooking Show Host" 04-21-03, 04:58 PM (EST) 9. "Dancing skills?" If this is the case, Clay isn't the only one who needs to brush up on his dancing!   Top

BriarRosie 990 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Fitness Correspondent" 04-21-03, 01:37 PM (EST) 5. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" First, you have my condolences for listening to Mancow's radio show. I think it'll be either Ruben or Clay, with the edge going to Ruben. They are the most unlikely idols, either way.

drawde236 317 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Cooking Show Host" 04-21-03, 02:29 PM (EST) 6. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" I'm still holding out for an upset like last year when Tamyra got booted out before (shudder) Nikki. More than likely it will be Clay and Ruben, but I would love it if Kim snuck in there.   Top

munson 1314 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Beef Jerky Spokesperson" 04-21-03, 03:38 PM (EST) 7. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" I think the next two months are simply the build-up to the coronation of King Ruben. He's my choice and the leader in the polls of the voting public. Re Kelly's comments, my guess is that she knows how popular Ruben is with the fans and believes he's pretty much a lock. Of course, didn't hear her comments but he is most definitely the favorite at this point. This is probably obvious to Kelly as well.   Top

The only one I can see making a real upset would be Josh, and not for his singing skills. He may have the patriotic vote when it comes down to it. It is hard to not vote for the marine in this time.

rilond 64 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Hollywood Squares Square" 04-23-03, 04:37 PM (EST) 20. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" Yea, I agree. But he cannot sing. The public must get out and "VOTE" for Kim Locke. She is the best person   Top

TourGirl 98 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Hollywood Squares Square" 04-22-03, 03:23 AM (EST) 11. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" The BIGGEST problem (of many) that I have with Ruben winning is the question of whether or not he'll even be excited. During the season so far, most of the other Idol wanna-be's have shown tons of emotion, but for Ruben, when he DOES show emotion, it feels forced. It seems like the judges or Ryan have to coax it out of him over the course of a conversation. I just can't see him being that excited if he won, and that would be pretty disappointing to the viewing audience! Sara BTW, my vote is for Kim L., but, unfortunately, I don't see her winning. My hope is for her to at least make it to the final 4!   Top

Bebo 21083 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-22-03, 08:21 AM (EST) 12. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" BTW, my vote is for Kim L., but, unfortunately, I don't see her winning. I'm hoping that she can move ahead of Joshua and take that 3rd spot, but it's going to take us Kim fans getting serious about hitting redial on Tuesday nights. On the plus side, she's getting a lot of favorable press this week, so hopefully people will jump onto the critics' bandwagons.

Spidey 6259 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-22-03, 10:15 AM (EST) 14. "Kim L." I sooo did not like her at first, despite her tremendous singing ability. Just something about her bored me. But I am liking her more and more now. Although she says she is "conservative," she does appear to have a light-hearted, bubbly side. I hope she starts to show it more. You don't have to always be serious to be classy. Of the 3 best singers - Clay, Ruben and Kim - she is the best package. You don't have to close your eyes to listen to her and she is unlikely to drop dead of a heart attack while on tour. Man, it's a shame Carmen can't really sing   Top

wildchickenhunter 3192 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 04-22-03, 09:40 AM (EST) 13. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" I guess if a guy who is half man and half cow says it, it must be true!   Top

alliestp 1 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "American Cancer Society Spokesperson" 04-22-03, 02:23 PM (EST) 15. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" Kelly was on The View last Friday and said her pick to win is Ruben. There cannot possibly anyway to know ahead of time how America will vote, but I agree with Simon that Clay is getting rather repitious. Just my opinion as they will be both 1 and 2. I think Ruben has everything needed to pull ahead. He radiates charm, where I just get a guy who likes to sing (and can sing well) when I hear Clay. There doesn't seem to be a "spark" with him. Just my opinion.   Top

Bebo 21083 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-22-03, 03:37 PM (EST) 17. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" Just my opinion. Hey, that's what this show is all about - finding out people's opinions of the contestants! Welcome to the forums, and glad you decided to join in on the fun!

katem 3315 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Car Show Celebrity" 04-22-03, 03:22 PM (EST) 16. "Yep !!!!!" I think he's boring and I doubt I would buy his record. DULL !!!!!   Top

rilond 64 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Hollywood Squares Square" 04-23-03, 01:01 PM (EST) 18. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" Well, I think Kim L has more to offer than Ruben.   Top

smiley 2009 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Roller Coaster Inaugurator" 04-23-03, 03:53 PM (EST) 19. "RE: Ruben--Is It Inevitable?" Ruben has a personality of a dishrag...sure he can sing but what else can he offer to the public? I am really rooting for Kim Locke. I think she has style and spunk and her voice is great.   Top
