I have put a ton of thought into this and think it would make to be a great and entertaining episode as part of American Idol.This would be to test the performers skill of things going bad during a performance.
For one of the weeks perhaps in the middle of the competition. Have the singers practice all week and have everything normal until the actual live performance. Then have the back up singers start singing a random song in horrible pitches and notes. (The song could be the kids song of "How much is that dog there in the window") Also have the orchestra play wrong notes and in different octives.
Then we will see how well the performers do. They would have to find a way to make sure the first performers didn't tell the last performers what happened.
I think it would be even funnier if they made all of the performers tell each other they did really good just to make them sweat the next night.
Then the next night instead of actually making someone leave they could do a top 3 and give the person who got the most votes some kind of prize.
My Husband and I were laughing all last night about what could happen with some of the contestants. For Example:
Ace-we thought would go on singing through his nose and not notice a thing. (We don't like Ace very much)
Paris-Would stop the whole performance and demand for a new orchestra and singers.
Kellie-Would stop singing and just stare and the orchestra then through a trantrum when they finished and claim after the tantrum she didn't know they were on tv the whole time.
As you can tell we had fun trying to think of reactions and we thought it would be one very entertaining episode.
What do you think?
