I_AM_HE 6123 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-14-04, 11:23 PM (EST) 1. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" George – first few notes were the best I’ve heard him – but it got progressively worse. Don’t blame it on the song choice, blame it on him just not pulling it off. Jennifer – beginning was a little breathy, but fantastic! But what was up with those earrings? JPL - woohoo! Having fun and loving it! The thing I don’t like about this type of song though is that it doesn’t give a chance to show off the voice. Diana – actually, I think this was maybe her best performance, as she’s been tremendously overrated to date. Caught a little here, because there was just a little less emotion than could have been there, but at the same time it was GOOD to see a little less of the overblown stuff Fantasia – wow. That is all I have to say about that. Jasmine – not good. last note was weak. Relatively few pitch problems unlike her usual though John – last two notes were strong, but the rest was weak and I couldn’t feel him at all. He’s a one trick pony, but he at least does an adequate job with that one trick, so probably enough to keep him off the bottom. Latoya – blew Diana’s last note of a few weeks ago out of the water, and the rest of the performance was good too, so fortunately its not going to make people forget a bad performance like Diana’s. The vocals weren’t her best – actually perhaps her worst - but still pretty good. Kinda pulled a Jennifer this week – power notes were great, some others a bit off. Still the most deserving to win though, IMO. 1. Fantasia 2. Jennifer 3. JPL 4. Latoya 5. Diana 6. George 7. John 8. Jasmine Deserves to go – Jasmine or John Will probably go – Diana   Top

brvnkrz 20491 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-15-04, 00:06 AM (EST) 4. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" I must agree with the almighty HE. I did my part and voted for JPL but also through some votes in for Jennifer too. Although usually not a fan of Fantasia's, she actually moved me tonight. for me, anytime a singer is so genuinly moved by a song the way she was tonight, it does it for me. That's what this kind of song should evoke from a singer and I was absolutely stunned by the emotional value she took from the song. if you don't have anything nice to say, come sit next to me.   Top

I_AM_HE 6123 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-15-04, 00:15 AM (EST) 7. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" yep, Fantasia's was so good I had to throw her a vote or two in addition to my JPL votes   Top

So_Opinionated 177 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Blistex Spokesperson" 04-15-04, 03:03 AM (EST) 13. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" I'm hoping Fantasia can continue to display the humility shown tonight. She did an excellent job and appeared more humble when the judges spoke. I was actually quite proud of her. I know Quentin wants the crazy Fantasia back but she must keep the humility in order to stay in the game.   Top

brvnkrz 20491 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-15-04, 10:42 AM (EST) 33. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" I so agree So. If she had displayed that humility since the beginning I would have been a fan from the get go. I too hope she keeps it up because she has a great power if used properly. if you don't have anything nice to say, come sit next to me.   Top

"Jennifer's Earrings" My husband looked up (because he was surprised that someone could actually do a GOOD cover of a Whitney song) and said, "Wow. You could bake with those earrings!" He's right -- they looked just like the wire whisk from my stand mixer...   Top

MandyM 2112 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Roller Coaster Inaugurator" 04-14-04, 11:55 PM (EST) 3. "My take..." 01- George Huff "Against All Odds" - Oooooh I love this song! George looks very nice...a bit off key though! This was definitely the wrong song for him (but I LOVE the song anyway so pfffffffttttt to the judges!) He is truly a class act thanking the judges sincerely even after they dissed him. 02 - Jennifer Hudson "I Have Nothing" - OMH, my girl is AWESOME! She looks beautiful and had such a nice subtle start with the gradual build up to the powerhouse singing! I love my girl! I wanna start dialing right now! Quentin says "Hudson takes on Houston and WINS" and as for his comments....he has definitely been the best celeb judge so far! GO JENNIFER GO! 03 - JPL "Jailhouse Rock" - he's still having fun and is rocking pretty good. He is SOOOO not as good vocally as most of the others, but he is a nice kid and he definitely makes me feel good after his performances. 04 - Diana DeGarmo "My Heart Will Go On"- she looks very mature...rough start but pretty good despite some weird phrasing. I can't resist to take a twist on Quentin though - 'DeGarmo takes on Dion and LOSES'. Sorry, but she is NO Celine! 05 - Fantasia Barrino "Summertime" - Interesting song choice and I like how she chose to present herself on stage...she looks really glamorous and WOW, what an amazing, sexy rendition of a song my grandparents made me listen to! Randy says "best of any season" and Simon says "magical". I have to agree! 06 - Jasmine Trias "When I Fall In Love" - Nice start...doesn't seem as nervous tonight..eek..bad note...overall good performance. I think Paula summed it up nicely when she said it was "pleasant" 07 - John Stevens "A Kiss Is Still A Kiss" - Nice, but this kid NEEDS to go already! Simon hit the head on the nail for me when he said "no charisma".........but then didya notice during the Herbal Essence thing, he showed more charisma than he has all season? 08 - LaToya London "Somewhere" - I SOOOOO LOVE THIS SONG! West side story is one of my FAVORITE musicals of all time!! She is such a pro! Very beautiful rendition - and she totally made it her own! That last note gave me total chills...she was soooo excellent! Fantasia had the best performance of the night without a doubt in my opinion. But I still voted for my gal Jennifer during commercials of Bachelor and Extreme Makeover. I didn't keep track, but I bet I voted over a hundred times. Truth be told, I would be happy if Jennifer, LaToya or Fantasia won it all and I would buy any of their cds. These are the top 3 talents and I just hope it turns out that way. Would be a shame if teenyboppers rule over these fine-voiced women! MM Maybe this world is another planet’s hell   Top

shedevil 1 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "American Cancer Society Spokesperson" 04-15-04, 00:08 AM (EST) 5. "RE: My take..." 01- George Huff "Against All Odds" - One of my very favorite songs, he killed it. It's dead. He has buried it. 02 - Jennifer Hudson "I Have Nothing" - She is amazing and is by far the best vocalist in the group. Her voice is the only one that has made me feel it and has given me chills. 03 - JPL "Jailhouse Rock" - It didn't show off his vocal skills, but it was good and he had the place rockin'.I love this side of him. 04 - Diana DeGarmo "My Heart Will Go On"- I like her but nobody can sing this song like Celine, nobody should even try. 05 - Fantasia Barrino "Summertime" - She sounded great, looked silly (especially with her arm flapping to show she was flying). "Circle of Life" ala Jenn, still the best of the season for me. 06 - Jasmine Trias "When I Fall In Love" - gag, heave, hurl, spew, vomit.. .*bashes head into wall and prays for mercy* 07 - John Stevens "A Kiss Is Still A Kiss" - *see comments about Jasmine, they apply here too* 08 - LaToya London "Somewhere" - gorgeous, beautiful voice, she's not Jennifer though   Top

JOSHIDOL 275 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Network TV Show Guest Star" 04-15-04, 09:34 AM (EST) 27. "RE: My take..." I agree with you 100%, George did a good job with this song. It may not have been his best but it was good. Why don't the judges tell Fantasia she should be on Broadway like they have told others in the past. Her kneeling on that stage crying was a bit much. I tried to vote for George but the line was busy all the way up to 10 o'clock. Quentin liked him. John Stevens has got to go. How those judges could even tell him he was good. Quentin said he was no fan of his. I honestly think this show is fixed in some way. They pick who they want from the very beginning, whether these people are horrible they are going to say they were great. I think when another contestant starts getting votes, thats when they start dissing them. At this point, it looks as though they are goggled over Fantasia. She is an unwed Mother of a 2 yearold, that may be hard to be an American Idol.   Top

Mistral 205 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Network TV Show Guest Star" 04-15-04, 00:13 AM (EST) 6. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" Okay, I'll be the dissenter this week. Too many sappy ballads for me when there was soooo many great things we could have heard. I wasn't as thrilled as everyone else seems to be. The Best: 1. Latoya - I put her ahead of Fantasia this week, maybe because she is my favorite, but her performance just moved me more. But I still think she could sing the phone book and I'd like it. Prejudice, I admit. 2. Fantasia - a good performance from her, and if I were the betting type, I'd pick her to win. I need to change my PTTE! But I didn't think it was any better than many of her other performances. She is consistently good, even if she bugs me. But c'mon, best performance of AI? 3. Jennifer - I'm so glad she's hit her stride. She was my favorite during the preliminaries, and I'm glad she's still around and getting more comfortable as a performer. The Rest: 4. JPL - normally I can't stand him, but I'm giving him points tonight for being upbeat and not sucking as much as I normally think he does. I thought he pulled it off. 5. John - great choice for him, but predictable. I think he'll be safe this week, and make my life with a 15-year old easier! Not There: 6. Jasmine - I'm still on the wall about her overall; she does well with the bluesy, soul stuff, but that's about it. She didn't cut it for me tonight. And "Lilo and Stitch" is the worst movie Disney ever made. 7. Diana - Why did she choose that song? Ewwww. She's better doing the bouncy, boppy stuff. And besides, only the Kinsey Sicks can sing this song the way I like it. Those of you who know the Kinsey Sicks know what I mean. 8. George - a sappy song, sappy movie and sappy performance. I take back everything I said about his savvy song choices. I would have paid to see him do "Strawberry Letter 23" and it would have been a nice little tribute to QT.   Top

Mysterious Jedi 1043 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Politically Incorrect Guest" 04-15-04, 00:41 AM (EST) 8. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" 1. Fantasia - Wow! I'm in the group that thinks her voice can get annoying very easily, but that was amazing. Loved it. 2. Jennifer - started a little weak, but saved it and ended up doing really well. I'm starting to like her alot. 3. LaToya - consistently solid. Technically very sound. Knows her limits and how to work around them. 4. Johnny Red - His best yet. Still, very limited in range and totally lacking in personality. 5. Jasmine - Average. Emotionless. The judges are right on in the critiques, it sounds fakey when she sings. There's no connection at all. 6. JPL - I thought he sounded terrible tonight. His voice actually is tolerable when he's singing, but he did very little singing tonight. He was yelling. At least he went back to his goofy dancing act, which is what he does best. 7. George - Wrong song, dude. That didn't sound anything like the George that's been there the last few weeks. He sounded lost. 8. Diana - Eeek! She butchered that song. The first bit actually wasn't bad, but it went downhill badly after that. Bottom 3: Diana, Jasmine, George/John S.   Top

Fishercat 4168 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Jerry Springer Show Guest" 04-15-04, 00:56 AM (EST) 10. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" My list 1. Fantasia (She really had an amazing performance tonight 2. Jennifer (I only saw it in pieces, but she sounded amazing. Kimberley Locke revisited) 3. John Stevens (I thought he sounded very impressive tonight. Not enough range to win this, but I think this was his song tonight. Superb performance. Watching Conan O'Brien, with guest Q.T. John Stevens looks a LOT like Conan.) 4. LaToya (Maybe I am just expecting so much out of her now, that a great performance just isn't mindblowing anymore) 5. JPL (I loved the performance on the whole, a little weak vocally, but a blast to watch) 6. Diana (Blargh! Annoying really that she picked a predictable Celine song. Purely decent) 7. George (I love George, but he wasn't on tonight) 8. Jasmine (What happened?)   Top

712 356 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Cooking Show Host" 04-15-04, 01:10 AM (EST) 11. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" LAST EDITED ON 04-15-04 AT 01:12 AM (EST) Yeah, can't say I was overly impressed either... 1) Fantasia Barrino - Oh man. When all the rumours were flying around last week that we were going to get a big band-themed night, I knew she'd be the one to beat when it came to that genre. And look, I was right (although, nothing really to compare to, in this case). Judges went way overboard. Jenny Gear's performance of that song on Canadian Idol was better though, I must say. Which, by the way, you can download and view here. Just saying. 2) LaToya London - I'm not liking this ballad rut she seems to be stuck in, but damn. 3) Jennifer Hudson - I thought that was WAY better than that Lion King thing she did last week. 4) George Huff - True, not his best, but his bar was set pretty high, and I think the judges were a bit hard on him. Somebody vote for him for me, wouldya? Okay, there's that... the other four are basically a crap shoot in my books... this is tough! 5) Jasmine Trias - I really did not enjoy that. Her voice has been grating on me lately... but good job for finally singing a song that nobody on a previous season sang (I think). 6) Diana DeGarmo - Nobody. Wants. To. Hear. That. Song. Again. Ever. 7) John Peter Lewis - Fun to watch, okay vocally, but I can't put him above Jasmine and Diana, mainly due to his poor mic technique at parts. 8) John Stevens - Zzzzzzzzz...... Yeah, this may be your genre, but so what. Did absolutely nothing for me. And I'm afraid of you. Bottom Three: Diana, Jasmine, JPL Out: Diana   Top

JOSHIDOL 275 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Network TV Show Guest Star" 04-15-04, 09:42 AM (EST) 28. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" I agree with you George was not that bad. At least he chose a song that was different then he is use to singing. I tried to vote for him for you but his line was busy for 2 straight hours. I do agree those judges were hard on him, even Miss Paula who finds nice things to say about the Devil. Maybe George was showing too much of a fan base too so to make sure their precious Fantasia gets in they are going to start criticizing him. Quentin T. loved him.   Top

managerr 1959 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Herbal Healing Drugs Endorser" 04-15-04, 11:12 AM (EST) 39. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" but good job for finally singing a song that nobody on a previous season sang (I think). How can you forget that heartwarming rendition of "When I Fall In Love" that Jim Verraros did in the first season of American Idol? That was the song he signed to his deaf parents remember? Jasmine did a good job with it, but it's hard for me not hear that song and thing of Jim Verraros's version and laugh.   Top

712 356 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Cooking Show Host" 04-15-04, 12:48 PM (EST) 50. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" I obviously should not make comments like that when I only watched the first Idol season when it got down to the final 4. My bad =)   Top

Lisapooh 12664 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-15-04, 02:07 AM (EST) 12. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" First of all - could that video have been more inappropriate and icky? Let's put a guy in his mid twenties in the shower with two high school girls - and Johnny Red in a towel is so gonna be the NAMBLA (or whatever it's called) poster boy now. That was all kinds of wrong! 1. Fantasia - I"m not a fan at all, but I love that she picked an older song and she performed it so well. I thought sitting on the floor and the arm gestures were a bit forced and contrived, but still - you have to give credit where it is due - and Fantasia is due. She was so much more relatable and likeable tonight. 2. LaToya - this is a close call between first and second. LaToya was great tonight - she picked a song everybody loves and belted it. Raised the hair on my arms! Beautiful, classy, polished. I'm still waiting to see some personality from her - but for now, her voice more than makes up for it. 3. Jennifer - these three girls were so far and above the others tonight. Jennifer had the misfortune of going first which lessened the impact. She is coming into her own. I love to hear this girl sing. 4. George - well, everyone is entitled to a bad night, and this was George's. He was back to looking like an old man and this song did not play to his strengths at all. He started out rough and it did not get better. 5. Diana - if Simon wants more mature performers, they should raise the age limit. I agree, she is a child - but she's a child that stands up to criticism well. There was nothing special about this performance. I wanted to see her tackle a slow song, so I'm glad she tried that. But - could there be a more annoying slow song than this? Uninspired. 6. John Stevens - I would rather watch paint dry than listen to him sing. It was good tonight - for him. But he's nothing more than a novelty act. There's no great career waiting for him. Vocally, he was the best tonight that I've seen him - but how much is that saying really? 7. JPL - What is there to say about him. He jumps around a lot. Still not getting it. 8. Jasmine - her performance didn't strike me as awful when I heard it. The last note made my ears bleed though. And there's nothing original or genuine about her. She's inconsistent. I don't want to see her go yet because she's not the worst in the competition - but she was the worst tonight. I would not be surprised to see Johnny Red in the bottom three this week. He had a strong performance (at least by his standards) so the hordes of teenyboppers might not feel compelled to vote a bazillion times each. That happened to Carmen last year when her best performance (Turn the Beat Around) still landed her in the bottom three, undeservedly for once. my predictions for bottom three: Diana, Jasmine, John Stevens. going home Diana or John Stevens   Top

Tiger Lily 1679 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Peanut Festival Grand Marshall" 04-15-04, 03:46 AM (EST) 14. "My 2¢" George: Eh. Not bad, not good. He's definitely capable of better. He looked great, though, and took his criticism very graciously. Jennifer: I'm falling in love with Jennifer more every week. I thought she was fantastic, even though I am sick to death of hearing Whitney songs on this show. JPL: Um, it seems like he sings better when he's doing crazy Elvis impersonations. Entertaining? Sure. But I would like to see him actually hit some right notes in his other performances... when he's not hiding behind some silly dance moves. Diana: Celene Dion, I hate you. Why must you plague us with your horrible music? Oh, wait... Diana's performance... Eh. No expression, butchered several important notes. Agreed with Simon about the age problem. Fantasia: Freaking awesome. One of my all time favorite songs, and her performance of it was amazing. It made me cry. No, really... stop that snickering, He. Jasmine: Honestly, I can't even remember her performance. Could she be any more boring? John: I muted the TV for this song, so I don't know. I was in no mood to have one of my favorite movies ruined for me by that little punk (actually, I'm lying. I did hear it, and he was no better than he has been in previous weeks). And stop that damn snapping! For the love of all things decent, stop it. Latoya: Amazing, as usual. As it stands right now, considering the collective weeks' performances, she deserves to win, IMO. (And as a side note, isn't she just absolutely gorgeous?) --------- Bottom 3: Diana, Jasmine and John S (I'll admit, this one is probably just wishful thinking). Out: Jasmine --------- Quentin Tarantino: Okay, I adore this man (and his films), in every way possible. Glad to see a guest judge who was enthusiastic, and actually had something to say... rather than just taking up space. Can we replace Paula with him? Pretty please? <-- is off to watch Pulp Fiction now.   Top

Quentin T. howeer liked George and told him he gets bertter every week. Paula really shocked me with George, she always finds something nice to say about the horrendouse performances of Jasmine, Diana, JPL. "Oh I love your voice".

Godd3ss 86 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Hollywood Squares Square" 04-15-04, 07:41 AM (EST) 17. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" Just a few comments: 1) John Stevens NEEDS to go. I know people said that this week was his best or whatever, but I still didnt think it was good. It is so dry and bland and I just want to punch him in his face. Was it Simon that picked him as the WildCard. He should now be punched, because I am sure there was a better person for it. I am just so sick of him. 2) I am not a Fantasia fan. She gets on my nerves and her yeah yeah yeah stuff that pops up everywhere is grating, however, she has a good voice, there is no denying that (good by meaning the notes she can hit and so on, the Macy Gray sound to it is what annoys me). That said, I had to give her major kudos because singing sitting down, especially how she was, is NOT easy. To sound as good as she did, not doing the boring standing up in front of a microphone was pretty damned incredible. 3) Lilo & Stitch is an awesome movie How can you go bad with an alien that dresses as Elvis!   Top

Quentin was hilarious and was not afraid to say what was on his mind. 1. LaToya - this is a close call between first and second. Overall her best performance since the top 12 began. Of course I liked her "All by myself" the best. 2. A very very close second Fantasia - I'm a big Fantasia fan. I love her spunk and her voice is amazing each week. 3. Jennifer - her song choice was perfect for her and she sang great. 4. George - overall the worst performance by George so far. I don't think that will hurt him though. He has alot of fans. 5. Diana - she was awful tonight. I couldn't wait for her song to finish. This competition is obviously too difficult for someone of her age. She will only improve as she gets older. 6. John Stevens - Can this guy leave alredy? 7. JPL - Hated the song. Hate him. Simon was right on..in a real audition he would last 2 seconds. 8. Jasmine - I give her A for effort but when she is up against Fantasia, Latoya and Jennifer she pales in comparison. *Proud Member of the RR/RW Old Fart Club*   Top

George - George's worst night is still better than John Steven's best night. Diana - Was it me, or did she sound out of tune and flat? I totally expected the judges to blast her but they were actually tame. I give Quentin props for telling her he "didn't feel it. there was a glass wall between them". Amen Quentin! JPL - This is going to cause a ruckus, but he sucks. I hated his performance last night. He can't dance. It's not charming. It's painful. But I'd prefer him one more week than having to suffer through Red again. Jennifer - Awesome! LaToya - Awesome! Fantasia - Wow! And she didn't do the Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah at the end. Yeah! John Stevens - Simon is right. He has no charisma. Please let him be the one to go tonight. Please. Jasmine - Better performance this week but that last note was sad. I can handle seeing her for a few more weeks if it means Jon and John go first. a JSlice original. isn't she something?   Top

Bebo 21083 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-15-04, 08:36 AM (EST) 23. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" Poor Mr. B - I made him watch with me this week. It's torture to put a voice teacher through this some weeks, but the contestants were fairly merciful to him this time. I'll include his comments too. The best by far: Latoya - As soon as she started singing, Mr. B commented about her being his favorite. She didn't disappoint either of us, and she delivers the whole package - a classy look, strong song choices, and polished singing. Mr. B wished she would have burned that last note a little earlier, since it's so hard to hold a straight tone. Fantasia - I had started to move into the anti-Fantasia camp, but she pulled me back in this week with an amazing performance. As has already been pointed out, singing while sitting is no easy feat. And even though some of her moves were over the top, the singing was so good that I was willing to overlook that. Jennifer - She has improved so much! I wasn't seeing the distracting lip moves during this week's strong performance. She has completely blossomed, and her last two song choices have been wonderful for her. (Yeah, I'm tired of Whitney songs too, but I can tolerate them when sung well.) Nowhere near the ladies: JPL - I did not want to rate him this high, but I can't help it. Like the ladies, he has a clear sense of the identity he wants to project onstage, and he creates a fun atmosphere for the audience. But then again, so does Willy Hung. Vocally, JPL is nowhere near the three ladies who completely outclassed him tonight. Mr. B is not a fan at all, disliking both his "clumping arond the stage" and his tendency to talk out the words rather than sing. George - Oh, I still am a big George fan, but this was his weakest performance by far. Mr. B was pleased that he took a chance to be ballady, and he also disagreed with Randy's comments that George was sharp at times. Still, George's strength is radiating his love of singing while he's onstage, and he didn't do that last night. That made his performance ordinary. John Stevens - Mr. B prefers listening to John without looking at the screen, and he wishes the kid would grow a personality. That being said, it was a perfect song choice for him, he sang it all right, and he looked more comfortable up there this week than he has to date in the finals. Granted, that's not saying much. One of you must go: Diana - I hate hate hate that song, and you are no Celine Dion. Then again, that last phrase could also be a compliment. The comment about a wall between Diana and the audience was dead on. She doesn't move me the way some of the other competitors do. Jasmine - Ouch. Took a song I loved (yes, even though Celine sang it) and butchered it. Mr. B has a hand gesture that he does when singers go flat, and he and I were doing it in unison for most of her performance. She missed notes all over the place. Mr. B's comment about both of them was that they still sing in their "little girl voices". Both of them lack a maturity to their sound and need the training to use their voices fully. My beef with both of them is that they don't project a strong identity when they're onstage. I don't feel like there's a way to define a "Diana performance" or a "Jasmine performance". The others in this competition (even JPL and John Stevens) have managed to create that sense of identity. And Quentin Tarantino is soooooo cool! Snarky, smart, S7 Anti-Bootee Champ   Top

What I really loved about her last night, was she changed her voice a little, it was so soft and lovely. She showed pure emotion, her performance touched me. 2. Laytoya- she is so beautiful, she always sounds great to me. 3. Jennifer- I love the way she can sing so low and then bring it back up in a single breath. Great vocal range. 4. John S.- I know, I know (no comments please) I liked him last night, and the week before. He won't win this competition, but I think he will make something of himself someday. 5. JPL- he had fun last night, and for the first time, I enjoyed his singing. 6. Jasmine- she is so adorable, I really wanted her to do well, but she just hasn't impressed me lately. 7. Diana- she should not have picked that song, period. 8. George- in all fairness, I missed his performance. So, I predict the bottom two at least will be Jasmine and Diana. Diana will leave tonight.   Top

Her exaggerated facial expressions still annoy me though. JPL "Jailhouse Rock" - One of his better performances, but he's not winning me over anymore.

Amazing song choice, and she sounded fantastic! Jasmine Trias "When I Fall In Love" - Ummmm...next! John Stevens "A Kiss Is Still A Kiss" - OK. Wish he would try something different.

I haven't been a huge Fantasia fan (just not fond of her voice--it's a bit grating for me), but WOW, what an exceptional performance. LaToya - A classy performance. She has a beautiful voice, and she knows how to work it. Jennifer - I cringed when they announced she was doing Whitney, but she did an amazing job! I've always been impressed with her vocals, and it's great to see her coming into her own. Mediocre George - . George is the man, but his performance just didn't do it for me last night. I love his voice, and while I enjoyed his singing, he just didn't have the "it" factor last night. John - I'm not a big John fan, but he did a nice job with the song. Jasmine - Pretty voice, but she's inconsistent and sometimes weak. And what was up with the outfit? She sang a sweet ballad, but she was wearing something in which she might go shopping at the mall. Ugh! Jon - OK, I want Jon to do well. He's quirky and geeky, and I like the underdog. But, man, he's just out of his league. Diana - She has gotten worse over the weeks. She didn't seem as confident, and her voice was weak. Very unemotional. Bottom 3 picks Diana, John, and Jasmine. I think Diana will go tonight. Roo   Top

I got chills hearing it, and I get chills now thinking about it. And Lord knows, I've not been a big Fantasia fan, but this moves her into the Final Four for me. Jasmine – eh Johnny Red – eh. This song was made for him, but he's not made for this competition. LaToya – excellent as usual. Simon was right about her very early on.

Jennifer was really good. OKAY: John Stevens was actually pretty good tonight, and I can't stand him! Diana was just okay. Not her most inspiring performance, and I agree that it was foolish to try and pull off that song. She's my personal favorite, but may be going tonight. WORST: Jasmine hit some really bad notes. Not good. JPL is just flat out a terrible singer. He does not belong with the others. George's performance was the worst of the night. He was flat-out awful. This is why he didn't originally make the top 32. It was his first bad top 12 performance, so he should get a pass from the public. Handcrafted by RollDdice!

"RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" LAST EDITED ON 04-15-04 AT 12:52 PM (EST) I listened to all of the performances on MP3 last night, so my impressions are based more on the audio than on the video qualities. 1. Fantasia. Twenty-four hours ago, I would have told you that Fantasia was the most talented contestant that I cared the least about. "Summertime" changed my mind completely. She didn't just start small and quickly bust out into powernotes through to the end like so many others are doing. Her interpretation had peaks and valleys and still greater peaks and then a beautiful resolution. It is great art when the singer can take you on a journey that leaves you in a better place than you started. It was pure emotion in song. 2. I am unabashedly a JPL fan. I love it that he went back to his "geek rock" mode. I disagree with those who say it wasn't much, vocally. He chose a vocal style appropriate to the song, and the inflections and nuances in his voice really sell it to the audience. He muffed a few words, but hey, Elvis did that in live performances, too, so he was keepin' it real. 3. Jennifer. On the low notes, she is a fog horn. On the high notes, better look out, cause' a freight train's comin' through! I mean this in the nicest way. It's a very melodious fog horn/train. I mean, the girl has a BIG voice. I loved the whole performance, but my favorite part was at the very end. Those notes were sweet! She left me wanting to hear more of them. 4. LaToya. I love the song, but after hearing the raw emotion in Fantasia's voice, LaToya sounded perfunctory in comparison. 5. John. Voice sounds great on the MP3. This isn't straight singinging. He's really perfected his vocal inflections for that style. My only complaint was the tempo. That song really requires the singer to linger through some of the phrases, slow it up a bit, then speed up a little, then slow again. He just kept singing along at the same pace throughout. Are they singing along with a tape? 6. George. Not his night. Makes me kind of wonder if he can't sing outside of his box. I like him in the box. I would be happy if he won this competition, but not based on this performance. 7. Diana. Valient effort. A nice change from the usual hootin' and hollerin' and not a single Come On! Nevertheless, she's doomed. 8. Jasmine. Started off nice, but the second half was just plain out of tune. I think she and Diana are both affected by laryngitis. You can't get over laryngitis in one week, especially if you continue to use your voice every day. The judges should have been much more harsh on Jasmine than Diana, in my opinion. This was clearly the most flawed performance. Best: Fantasia, JPL, Jennifer Worst: George, Diana, Jasmine Going: Diana   Top

johnthemod 423 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Daytime Soap Guest Star" 04-15-04, 01:23 PM (EST) 55. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" Really a pretty great week, and Quentin was an awesome guest judge. I'm gonna go back and make a few comments on past weeks since I haven't been doing this, sorry for the length. (the ratings are for this week) 1. Fantasia (6,5,3,3) - I agree with Randy, definitely the best performance ever on AI. Summertime was our class song in voice last semester, and though I've heard about 100 renditions just in class, hers blew them all out of the water. AMAZING. 2. Latoya (1,2,1,2) - still pulling for her to win right now, but it's close between her and Fantasia. great performance, but not really a very exciting song (i'm not a huge fan of the music from West Side Story in general) 3. JPL (3,6,5,5) - his performance was hilarious and really fun (Elvis works for this guy). and he's sooo cute. 4. Jennifer (9,8,6,1) - sounded great, I still think she looks a little funny when she sings, love that song, but not incredibly original choice (Trenyce last year anyone?) 5. John S. (10,7,10,6) - I really want this guy gone, but of course he was going to sing "As Time Goes By" and sing it well...duh. 6. George (2,3,2,4) - not a great week for him, horrible song choice, but I'm still pulling for him to be in the top 4 overall 7. Jasmine (4,9,7,7) - she's boring, same every week, needs to go soon 8. Diana (5,4,8,8) - needs to go NOW. this girl scares me, I could totally picture her being a demented killer doll in a movie, chasing after me in the dark with an axe...creepy...also her singing has gotten lame and Titanic? C'mon Diana, c'mon (she did have the best movie choice though with Bowfinger) RIP Camile Velasco (11,10,9,9) Amy Adams (8,1,4) Matt Rogers (7,11) Leah Labelle (12)   Top

grit 4868 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Stuff Magazine Centerfold" 04-15-04, 02:16 PM (EST) 57. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" 1. Jennifer. I'm surprised a lot of people aren't ranking Jennifer higher. Maybe the impact of her performance was lost because she performed early. I thought her performance was amazing - I got chills and even cried. My daughter thought I was looney. 2. Fantasia. Stunning performance, but I wasn't moved to tears the way she was. No yeah, yeah, yeahs at the end but they were in the middle of the song in two different spots. I was happy that she sang "summertime" and not "shummertime". 3. LaToya. Great job, but she still sounds like a wedding singer to me. Very automatic, very little emotion. But she's got a great range, lots of power, and she always sings in tune. 4. George. Actually, based on last night's performance, he doesn't deserve to be this high on my list. He picked the wrong song. It just didn't suit him. But he remains high on my list because of past performances. 5 & 6. JPL and John. It kills me to rank these two ahead of Jasmine but they both did better than she did last night. JPL's not a bad singer and he has a lot of energy, but he can't dance (and really should stop trying) and he doesn't always sing in tune. At least he stopped singing through his nose. John Stevens sang in tune last night and it was a good song for him, he has zero personality and I don't see myself buying an album of his music. 7. Jasmine. I like her voice but it's starting to get weak and pitchy. The top 3 on my list keep getting better but Jasmine seems to be getting worse instead of improving. 8. Diana. Another shout-fest from Diana. I like her voice, but she's been shouting these last 3 weeks and it's taking its toll. She's having more trouble staying on-key because of it. I think she deserves to stay ahead of John Stevens, but will probably go before him. Best: Jennifer, Fantasia, LaToya Worst: Diana, Jasmine Going: Diana Thanks to greenmonstah for the sig pic!   Top

Jennifer - SHe sang one of my all time fave songs. She's been my favorite since day one and still is. 2. Fantasia - She rocked the !!@#$ house! 3. LaToya - proved that she has a big voice, too. Somebody should've told Diana not to sing that song. She didn't sing it well and by singing a song that soooo many people are sick of hearing proves her youth. Not much thought went into that song selection. mld   Top

"RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" Ok, first off, this was probably the best overall episode of AI this season. Best: Fantasia - I'm not even a fan of yours, but man, that was at totally awesome performance. You go girl. Jennifer - Yup, you're proving why I've liked you since the very beginning. QT - didn't know what to expect from him, but his comments, his enthusiasm, and his honesty were unexpectedly delightful Simon - Love You. You're comment about Fantasia never using her lips better had me on the floor. THE FLOOR !!!!!! OK: Latoya - she still has the wedding singer feel to her, she's obviously a wonderful singer, and a seemingly wonderfully confident and collected woman, but... John S - you said this was your show. You did ok, but I worry if that's the best you can do. JPL - actually one of his better performances in the past 3 eps. Bad: Diana and Jasmine - ouch. The ship is sinking for these two. They're young, pretty, and they both sing well. But they're going very, very soon. They're young, they'll get over it. George - not really a fan of his, but I actually felt sorry for him last night - he can do alot better than that. Great song, a really lacklustre rendition of it.   Top

"RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" Hmm this is something different for me, but LaToya was the best tonight. Yes LaToya NOT Fantasia, although she was ok. Just because you are moved by a song doesn't mean you sang it that well. IMO JPL has had even worse performances than John S. and should go this week, but that won't happen. George was the worst I ever heard him, can't stand his raspy voice Diana-oh Diana I really like you, but you needed to shine this week and you didn't, I fear an early exit from you tonight   Top

Acawap 184 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Blistex Spokesperson" 04-15-04, 04:22 PM (EST) 63. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" Worst as always was JPL. Seriously, how can anybody stand him?? his voice is so weak, it's scary. OK, maybe he's funny, maybe he'd be entertaining in the right context, but he's no american idol. I see him as at best one of those singing stand up comics. Best I hate to say was Fantasia. I really don't like her, but that song was awesome. Was the first time I could actually sit and listen to her. Her and Jennifer both have incredible voices, but go too over the top on everything they do and have annoying personalities to ever get my vote. I'm afraid for Diana -- I love her, but haven't seen her nail a performance since the first week. Don't know what's wrong, but I think it's weak they didn't mention she had laryngitis last week until after the voting. and pllllllllleasee somebody explain how John Stevens never ends up even in the bottom three?? Who could POSSIBLY vote for him to be the best in the competition????? He can have only so many family members. Ok I'm through bashing -- GO George and Diana!   Top

JOSHIDOL 275 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Network TV Show Guest Star" 04-15-04, 04:39 PM (EST) 65. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" What do you cll Fntasia's voice if you think George's is Raspy, lets say twangy with those buck teeth. I wonder if she can get an extreme makeover. What American Idol sings from Porgy and Bess. Come on... At least George tried a song that at least most people in the 20th century are familiar with. Not sure if too many people under the age of 25 knew the summertime song. The guy was not that bad, I think his fan base was building and that scared the judges because they are looking to crown a black woman this year. The guy was not that bad, ask Quentin Tarantino?? Also, Luther Vandross was on the news last time saying how Good he thinks George is.   Top

"RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" BEST: FANTASIA GOOD: LATOYA - Like some of the posters mentioned, latoya's performance was very mechanical and i wonder why none of the judges mentioned that. She is still a good singer though. GOOD: JASMINE- Am I the only one who thinks so? BAD: THE REST I wonder what the judges are thinking. JENNIFER was not good at all. She was pitchy and very mechanical and had several bad flat notes. I thought only randy mentioned it. I liked Bleah Labelle's interpretation a lot better because she sang it with a lot of passion and tried to be different form Whitney. JOHN S. was very bad. he had flatnotes all over the place. Were the judges hard of hearing? GEORGE was not bad at all because he sang the whole song in tune. But definitely his big voice did not show up last night. His whole rendition was eaten up by the background music. DIANA is simply bad,bad,bad. JPL too was bad but he was fun. BOTTOM 3: DIANA,GEORGE, JENNIFER ( I don't think John S and JPL will be in the bottom 3 although they deserve it)   Top

geg6 14941 desperate attention whore postings DAW Level: "Playboy Centerfold" 04-15-04, 05:02 PM (EST) 66. "RE: Week 5 - Best and Worst" Quentin Tarrantino ROCKS!!!!! Can we please replace Randy and/or Paula with him? He watches, he listens, he tells the truth. 1) Fantasia - hated her guts every week and I'm still not sold on her but...this performance was awesome. She chose the perfect song, she didn't slur her Ss, and she was really feeling the emotions of the song. This song is about the African American experience and she nailed it. 2) Latoya - week after week, she is the technical best of this bunch. I'd just like to see that she's really working it on just one song. That last note should should serve as a tutorial to the rest. 3) Jennifer - another whom I am not a fan of, but she was pretty good. Liked it better than that stupid Lion King song from last week. Still belongs in a Broadway theater or singing with a Baptist choir, but is controlling the weird faces and over the top hand gestures. 4) JPL - just too cute for words and I think he'd be great fronting a rock and roll band. 5) John S. - I was hoping he'd pick this song. Perfect for him and he did a good job, but he can't possibly last. 6) George - my personal favorite was so off last night! Hate that song and it was the worst possible choice for him. Eh, he's entitled to it for being so consistently and surprisingly good to this point. He gets a pass. 7) Diana - can this song be banned from all airwaves forever? Okay rendition, but Simon's right. She's never experienced any of these feelings so why does she keep trying to sing about them? 8) Jasmine - horrible ending. Up to that point it was one of her better performances...only a few off notes and weird phrasings. But that ending!!!!! And I would add the same criticism that I had of Diana: if you've never felt it, don't try to sing about it. Bottom 3: Diana, Jasmine, John S. Boot: Jasmine   Top

I want her to win sooo bad, but I think she has some fierce competition from Fantasia. Good (2) Fantasia - She is the best entertainer in the group. And her attitude seems to have improved this week. (3) Jennifer - I believe that she has shown the most growth. (4) George - His performance was okay. Even though I like the song, I think he should have chosen something else to sing. (5) Jon Peter - He may not be the best male vocalist, but I liked this performance because it was entertaining. (6) Jasmine - It was tolerable. There is not much I can say. (7) Diana - I want to like her more but I am unable to connect with her. I wished she wasn't so easily forgettable. Worst (8) John S. - I can't understand why he hasn't been voted off.

I think some people have misinterpreted her comments to the judges. Some people don't like contestants talking back to the judges. I watched her carefully when she was talking to Simon. She wasn't being mean or disrespectful but some people might have missed her smiling and saying she still loves Simon. It just seems to me that a lot of people like the contestants to be humble and will bash anyone who isn't humble. It's tough because you have to have confidence in yourself to make it in show business. I think the key to winning over some people is to walk that fine line between confident and cocky.   Top

I also understood what she said just fine and still stick by my opinion that she was rude, concieted, and childish when speaking to Simon. I don't think she was joking at all and let's say she was, I don't feel it was funny.

Thank you to everyone for clarifying some things for me. I have to admit, I disagree with some of it, but that is okay. This is what I don't understand: I distinctly remember both Kelly and Clay, even Justin, and a few others openly disagreeing with Simon. I remember these clips being played over and over again. Also, why is it not okay for Fantasia to apparently cross the line a few times (even though I don't think she has), but it is okay for Simon to cross the line week after week, often belittling fellow human beings? I am a studio dancer, and have been given criticism since I was young. I have come to realize that you have to take it with a grain of salt, or you will drive yourself crazy, as I did until I was in college. I think you have to hear what they are saying, reflect over that, and either apply or not apply it to your art. At the end of the day, you have to be happy with your peformance, which I believe Fantasia to be. Once again, LaToya is just boring. Fantasia is exciting. But that is my opinion.   Top
