AMERICAN IDOL CHANGES IT UP IN CALIFORNIA

A nice surprise from the producers of "American Idol" Season 7 tonight. The search was on in sunny San Diego California but instead of listening to 4 or 5, not so talented singers right off the bat, they blessed us with three golden ticket singers at the beginning of the show, all now on their way to Hollywood. The talented Ryan Seacrest did an amazing job, as usual and even judge, sexy Simon Cowell, was back to his usual self and telling contestants the brutal truth, which I find amusing.

Of course, it wouldn't be "American Idol" without some tears, a couple blurry middle fingers and a few wanna be's. My favorite "wanna be" said that when she sings, her friends would have to come and ask her if it was her singing or if "Mariah Carey"'s album was playing. Simon had a much different opinion. Simon said "The only resemblance you have to Mariah Carey would be if her album sat out in the sun all day."

My Favorite audition tonight was by Samantha Muse. She wasn't quite the best, but she had originality, and a great spirit, plus she agrees with my Sexy Simon theory.

My pick for "worst audition" goes to Blake Boshnack from New York City. I say this not because he had the worst voice, but instead because he has auditioned for "American Idol" eleven times. On Season 1 he dressed as the Statue of Liberty and , of course, got a big "NO" from the panel. But that didn't stop him....fifteen "NO's" later he makes another appearance getting the same results. I'd like to know what he does for a living to be able to afford to travel all over auditioning because we all know it isn't singing.
