PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Lesbian Idols Journal" |
Lesbian Idols Journal – Week Six (Barry Manilow)Ok, so Larry’s too depressed this week to do his usual GIJ for our entertainment. We understand – Jennifer’s untimely and entirely undeserved demise shocked the whole of America into a state of either explosive fury or comatosely grief (or both). However, it’s in times like these when we really need the soothing balm of alternative entertainment to help make all that badness go away. So… because I’m bisexual and an honorary lesbian, I’m filling in for you this week Larry (even if you and everybody else don’t want me to). But please come back for Week Seven – John Stevens will hopefully get kicked off and if you aren’t around to say anything about it, all us AI3 DAWs will never forgive you. In reverse order… 7. George Huff George was a big lesbian mess this week. What in the world was that awful warbling noise coming out of his mouth for one and a half whole minutes?(!) Doesn’t he know that if Barry Manilow tells you not to riff his song, it’s a quietly polite way of saying that when you do you sound like gravel for the ears? And that outfit… Ok, this is the one of the big reasons why fashionable dykes like me hate probably-straight men like George – sometimes they dress so horribly you just want to rip off their stripy-yucky orange-brown button-up shirts, make them grow some breasts and then stick on a tasteful low-cut blouse that would accentuate his newfound boobs. Let’s hope he sings – and dresses! – better on Tuesday.
6. Diana DeGarmo
Little lady looked butch this week in a light-blue pinstriped suit over a non-flashy yellow top, with blond highlights to bring out the yellow in her blouse and her eyeliner. This made her look like a youthful yuppie power-businesswoman, the kind who drinks her lattes with non-fat non-dairy soy-milk and freaks out if they accidentally add whipped cream on top. If she were dressing for her first day at work I’d give her top points… but unfortunately, for American Idol, the getup was just boring. Sorry Di… On the upside you sang pretty good, loved the way you turned Barry’s song into a potential lesbian/gay anthem.
5. John Stevens
Blue suit. Inoffensive. Looked like a flame-headed wooden marionette. Sounded like badly-piped elevator music. This fifth-grade Michael Buble will attempt to sing a Latin/Disco song come Tuesday. He will sound irredeemably awful, which unfortunately may garner sympathy votes and help him stay on the show a little longer – but lord I hope it doesn’t.
4. La Toya London
Woman couldn’t decide what costume to wear this week. She had a lovely, ultra-feminine, elegant blouse on top, with a cowl-neck that helped accentuate her graceful African-American neck and shoulders… and a butch pair of jeans on the bottom. She pulled it off ok, and she sang great as usual… but there are better ways to make that feminine/masculine, gentle/tough look work, for example…
3. Jasmine Trias
Her hair was sleek & straight glamour-puss perfection. Her white belly-baring top, coupled with a tough-looking denim jacket, was streetsmart-chic and suited her spunky 17-year-old image to a ‘T’. Her gauzy, layered skirt was pink and lacy and looked like something a fairy god-sister would wear to a party. And she executed the whole pull-the-mic-off-the-stand and sing-to-the-adoring-crowd move perfectly. Her vocals were excellent too… this, La Toya, is how you properly mix diva with butch.
2. Jennifer Hudson
Woman looked and sounded fantastic this week! Her hair was great, her make-up was flawless, her sharply-contrasting black-and-white outfit made it impossible not to notice (and admire) her wonderful stage presence. And her accessories: the faux-tacky white hoop-earrings, the checkerboard b/w neck-scarf, that chain-link belt; they all added street-smart fashion undertones to her otherwise posh ensemble… all in all an absolute winner (and that’s not even figuring in her powerhouse performance). We’ll miss you Jennifer Hudson… get a record deal and make a music video soon so we can worship you some more.
1. Fantasia Barrino
Not everyone will agree with me on this one. But with her casual-yet-classy subtly-pink velvet-soft jacket (complete with a blouse the perfect shade of white underneath); her hair all tjuzed up to get rid of that hair-line Larry’s always complaining about; her earrings that added class and glamour and her jeans-and-boots combo that added butch value without distracting from the lovely velvet jacket… Fantasia wins Fashionable-Dyke of the Week by a mile. And she’s a proud single mum as well – go single mothers, and power to all womankind!
As you can see I don’t know all that much about fashion – it took me twenty minutes of research on the Internet to determine that La Toya was wearing a cowl neck and even then I’m not quite sure I got it right. So come back next week Larry. We miss you.

It was said that afterwards
George was battling the flu and laryngitis but they never made mention of it like they do for some singers. As for the Barry Manilow and the riffs in the song. Pay attention Mr. Manilow himself said the preview he helped Goerge with the riffs then he said something about them when Randy did not like them. Cop out...

Very entertaining! As was said before, you did Larry proud. Loved to hear the (honorary) lesbian take on the fashions and faux pas of AI (I've often wondered). Thanks Na-swirl!

Very entertaining. But i wish you had put jasmine on top of Fantasia and Jennifer.
With jennifer, I thought she had a beltbag . i realized later that it was her belly protruding from the black belt she was wearing.
I thought her costume was a mess last week. Just my opinion.

I found this message board through Larry's journal, and for a couple of weeks, I've been very impatiently waiting for the next journal to come out. It's been a lot of fun reading them, and I have to admit that I have been impatiently waiting again this week! I posted another thread days ago, wondering where Larry is. I am thankful that you stepped in to help relieve the withdrawals. I really thought that Jasmine's combination of the jean jacket and whispy skirt was terrible. I give her credit for showing off her belly, but to me, it seemed like something my 19 year old would wear when she's out of clean laundry. I agree that Fantasia looked fantastic in that outfit. She seems very comfortable. She is spunky, although some feel it's attitude. She has worked to improve probably as much as Jen did, and the pink was very pretty on her. And, her response to Jen being booted with "You're MY American Idol!" was endearing. I hope Larry comes back soon! And thanks again for filling in.
 (We gotta b*tch or we'll explode!)

Sodiumswirl rocks!Excellent job filling in for me... I was on vacation, and then when I returned Friday to find Jennifer was booted, I went in to an (understandable) tailspin. But I'll post something tomorrow, I promise... -Larry
