charlotte 0 Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Quote: Seems like the judges can hardly be bothered to comment some nights, too. Haha, yeah definitely. They must be thinking - are these REALLY the best 7??? Link to post Share on other sites
IIIII 2 Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Sanjaya gets creepier by the minute. And just WHO are those gormless girls commenting at the end. How on earth do they get to be there? Link to post Share on other sites
69 5 Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Ah, they are the talented idol group that are being pushed right now. The ingredients are: - underage girls, some vaguely cute; - about 12 of them all "singing" and "dancing" together; - wearing sailor suits, but make sure the skirts are short so we can see those nama-ashi; - almost no talent Add a lot of pervs who seem to love that kind of thing and success!

grungy-gonads 54 Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 It is quite rubbish this year, definitely. My vote goes to.... er, no-one. Link to post Share on other sites
me jane 0 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Those girls are called AKB8. Think it's supposed to stand for Akihabara. They appeal to the Akihabara maid cafe otaku types. I know none of them are particularly interesting but if you had to choose one guy and one girl who would it be? I think I'd choose Blake and Melinda (but only cos there isn't much choice!)

brit-gob 9 Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Hmm. At a push I'd have to go for Blake and Melinda as well. Though I think that Jordan girl might be in it until at least near the end. Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Is it just me or is that Jordan girl getting, er, 'bigger' every week? Seriously, she seems to be inflating!! Does Paula Abdul say much else apart from "you looked gorgeous". Isn't this a singing comp? Link to post Share on other sites
charlotte 0 Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 Yes it's all getting a bit cliche isn't it? As me jane said they don't seem to be that bothered about comments other than the totally predictable. Simon at least Simon says what he feels still. I was thinking that about Jordin as well last night actually gg She does seem to be growing! Link to post Share on other sites
brit-gob 9 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Well at least Sanjaya is gone, Simon must be happy. I was fairly surprised to see Blake in the bottom three there. Those country and latin themed shows just confirm to me how much I dislike that kind of music. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Much of the stick that idol's been getting this year is because of people like no talent sanjaya getting through when the likes of Red and Sundanace get the bullet. Now sanjboy can go n do the talk show circuit and then off to Las Vegas after the idol tour. Beat box boy is actually something original and some of his stuff is good.

merryJim 1 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I think they all lack something this year. Charisma maybe? Blow you away talent? That Daughtry seems to be doing well, I actually like the few songs I have heard of his. Link to post Share on other sites
me jane 0 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I bought that Daughtry album. Quite good. Not sure if Jordin is inflating but I think Melinda is shrinking. Link to post Share on other sites
snowbender 3 Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I know it's not about looks, but what is going on with Melindas lack of neck? She seems like a nice lady though as Simon pointed out the "what me?!" surprise has gotten really old. I think Jordin will win. She seems to be on the up, so to speak. Not keen myself. I wanted Antonella to win Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Yeah Jordin and Blake for the final perhaps? You got the Daughtry album me jane - mini review? Is it a balance between the power ballads and Nickelback like pop-rock? Link to post Share on other sites
echineko 1 Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 I don't think they are impressive this time. Blake isn't charisma. About appearance, I really dislike those tattoo on his arm - kimochi warui Link to post Share on other sites
charlotte 0 Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Do we have a winner yet for AI? Please don't tell us the result or any hints at all.... I was just wondering where it's up to! I want to avoid the entertainment news so I don't get the result by mistake. Link to post Share on other sites

big-will 7 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Glad I missed that. As much as I am not excited by AI, I would rather not know the result or even a hint at it. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 Here's a spoiler. It's all over. Have to wait 'til Jan now. Link to post Share on other sites
me jane 0 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Glad I missed it too. By the way, I've heard that the winner is posted on almost every news and search engine site, Yahoo, MSN, you name it - it will guaranteed to be on there! Use Japanese search engines and don't watch CNN! Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Quote: don't watch CNN That shouldn't be too difficult! It'll be on the BBC site as well so best avoiding places like that if you want to keep it a surprise. Oh what fun, Next year they really should get their act together and show it sooner after the actual event than the current 4 weeks behind. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 I'm going to buy the Daughtry album. He was good live. Link to post Share on other sites
