"American Juniors 7-8-03" |
Well, this was an interesting show for sure. I cant even start to predict a winner out of this mess. So what ill do is just rank the 9 in my order of preference based on their performances. 9TH PLACE - AJ - will someone please shoot this kid for me? god is he annoying. and audience plants?? please....give me a break. too bad we cant vote this kid not only off the show but into some deserted island somewhere. 8TH PLACE - MORGAN - in need of a major beating. yuck. 7TH PLACE - CHAUNCEY - well he's better than he's been but thats not saying much. 6TH PLACE - CHANTEL - holy crap what happened here? my personal favorite since the beginning was absolutely horrible. but as debbie said, the song stunk and her voice couldnt carry it all. she should have won last week. i hope she didnt just blow her chance. 5TH PLACE - KATELYN - good average performance. she's got the looks and the voice but no charisma but give her time. 4TH PLACE - TORI - another one dropping down a level in my opinion. nothing special about her tonight at all. 3RD PLACE - JORDAN - big BIG surprise here. jordan was all over that stage. wouldnt surprise me if she snuck in based on her charisma alone. 2ND PLACE - LUCY - lucy is so good its scary. powerful yet understated. she needs to get votes. if she doesnt then people are stupid. simple as that. BEST - DANIELLE - yet ANOTHER tingly performance from Danielle, if people cant see how frighteningly good she is then they cant judge talent. if she doesnt get into the group, out of spite i probably wont buy whatever cd the American Juniors come out with. childish? yeah but if taylor can make it in in the first week and danielle gets shutout, that would be a travesty. ....So who do i think the top 3 vote getters will be? I get a sneaky suspicion it wont be the best three. I hope im wrong but i see AJ (if he makes it in, ill stop watching this show), Tori & Chantel being the top 3 but i dont think they deserve it. Oh well.

I did not see the show tonight, . So I am looking forward to lots of comments on how the kids did. "Do you know, I always thought unicorns were fabulous monsters, too? I never saw one alive before!"

I thought the "not so favored" did much, much better than the so-called "favored". Here is my run down of last night's show:9. Jordan- Too many words, not enough voice. She appeared to be struggling to get all the words out 8. Katlyn - Pretty face, but her voice is just okay. 7. Tori Thompson- Very Charismatic, but certainly not the best performance of the night. Vocally, not the best either! (but seems to be america's choice) 6. AJ- Okay. Thought the girls coming out the audience was a little too much 5. Morgan Burke- For some reason, I can't bring myself to root for this young man. He does not fit in the group to me but his performance was much better than previously 4. Chantal- This was the worst song choice of the night! What a horrible song choice. Her voice is much better than the song. 3. Lucy Hale- Go Lucy! You blew me away tonight. 2. Danielle White- **My Pick overall*** Her voice is pure, crisp and clear. With Tori Thompson already in the is group (why i don't know), This band will need someone who can REALLY SING! 1. Chauncey- WOW! Alot people are hating on Chauncey but you have to give him credit tonight. He gave the best performance of the night and I am rooting for this underdog. Haters beware...

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks Danielle stands out head and shoulders above all the rest including Taylor. I voted for her 50 times. Chauncey was much improved, Jordan is very cute but can't sing, Tori is starting to annoy me. Morgan and AJ are already annoying me

Danielle, Lucy, Chantel, etc. may be better singers than people like Taylor Thompson, but I selected Taylor as my performance of the night (last week) because she may not have had the BEST singing voice, but she brought what she had together in a great performance. Also, I don't know how a group would be with 5 great singers, it maybe too much of a jumble, maybe a group of 5 good performers could make for a more charismatic and fun group. But I dunno, it could work either way....

My rankings, for what its worth.1. Lucy Hale She got saddled with a song that is totally obscure and very difficult to sing, and she showed off amazing control and presence. I loved the way she backed off at the end and used her head voice for dramatic effect, instead of just belting everything (like Tori or Taylor would have.) I've said it before and I'll say it again, this girl is by far the best singer of the finalists. I think she could have competed well on American Idol, despite her age. 2. Danielle White This girl has such amazing raw talent it is breathtaking. Sure, she's not flashy, showy and loud. But she moves me so much more with her voice than a thousand Tori and Taylors ever could. ---BIG GAP HERE---- 3. Chantel Contrary to the judges opinions, I don't hate 'Stony End.' It was, no doubt, a bad choice for her. But she pulled it off okay. There is something natural and unforced about her as a performer that I love. 4. Morgan Okay, Morgan-haters, back off for a bit. He is improving every week, getting less-and-less annoying. And there is no denying the talent that lies beneath the overblown performance. 5. AJ The chick-magnet thing is totally manufactured by the producers. He's actually quite dull. But he has the voice. Smooth and even, with a big range. 6. Tori She was also quite dull. And I'm starting to doubt if she can really sing. Sure, she stays on pitch, mostly, but I've never heard her hold a note out more than a few beats. Still, she has presence. 7. Chauncey Yeah, he was better. He still is too green for this group. 8. Jordan There is something icky about her, sort of Jon-Benet Ramseyish. Sure, she sold the song, but it was so cheeseball fake and laquered. 9. Katelyn Drop-dead gorgeous, but easily the weakest singer of the bunch. Who SHOULD be top 3: Lucy, Danielle, Chantel Who WILL be top 3: Tori, Chantel, Lucy

Sorry, RUTGERSpaul, I just call 'em as I see 'em. Jordan seems plastic and overrehearsed to me. She needs to relax and let her real personality come out. That being said, she no doubt is a 'showman,' but I just don't know if there is any real lasting talent under her perfectly polished shell. As far as her getting in the group... you may be right, time will tell, but not this week! Morgan, on the other hand, is also plastic and overrehearsed, but appears to have real talent beneath the facade. The annoying facade, however, will probably continue to keep his vote total low and keep him out of the group. We seem to agree on most everyone else!

Hey all you American Junior Fans! Well first off I just wanted to say that I am quiet surprized at the turnout for the first pick....Yes Taylor has GREAT stage presence as does her sister, however as far as the vocals LUCY & Danielle have my vote! Not that I think that neither sister would have made it because I am sure that in the end they both will....I just figured that they would be chosen closer to the end...Now the Thompson family has to bite their nails to see if Tori makes it in with her sister. I know that the show is all about talent, however I feel that the first few episodes of the show where their mother pointed out that Taylor felt like she was the ugly one & from what I gathered didn't think she was as good as her sister had a lot to do with her getting picked first...(thats America) we all have soft hearts...not that she doesn't have any talent, I think she does, I just don't think she has as much as some of the other girls.....I look for Tori to turn it up a notch or two so that she can secure her spot! I don't think however that she can top her performance of Let It Rip, she did an outstanding job! I was also impressed with both of the girls performances of CCR! We will see whats to come!

I really don't know what the heck is wrong with you Rikker Mortis!!! you speak before you even know anything!!! and i mean you dont know anything! i dont know how old you are, but talking like that about kids who are younger than you (even though you probably have the mature level of a 3 year old)is just wrong! saying morgan needs a beating?? who says something like that? come on! you dont know talent at all because he definatly has it!! they all do! keep in mind that this isnt a "perfect singer" contest, they are making a group. so from now on watch what you say!!!
