SOMEONE GIVE SIMON COWELL A Q-TIP

(Collage by tylastarstruck.com)

There were a number of lackluster performances, by the girls, tonight on "American Idol" season 7. I know it is much harder to perform, verses watching and analyzing, but I have done a bit of performing myself, off camera, and considering what is at stake for these young and talented women, there should be no excuses.

I disagreed with Simon (what else is new) on a couple of critiques. I do not agree with the praise given to Amanda Overmeyer. She does seem like an all right chick, but I just did not like her rendition of Ted Nugent's "Baby Please Don't Go". Simon said he loved it, yet he had never even heard the song before. One would think she has the perfect voice for that song, but Mr. Nugent might agree with me when I say..."What the #?%$!. I do admire her spunk and I am a rock-n-roll gal myself, but I would surely walk away with one heck of a migraine after listened to an entire record of her voice. Sorry Simon, but what are you thinking? Must have been her jeans.

Kady Malloy did a fantastic job, in my opinion. Simon did not agree. His ears must have still been ringing from Overmeyers performance. Alexandrea Lushington also rocked it. And I have no earthly idea how Amy Davis even made it on the show. I've watched every episode and I still can't remember this girl. Whew....glad I got that off my chest.

Here is a list of the girls, in the order by which they performed, and the song they sang.

KRISTY LEE COOK - "Rescue Me"
JOANNE BORGELLA - "Say a Little Prayer "
ALAINA WHITAKER - "Love You More Today Than Yesterday"
AMANDA OVERMEYER - "Baby Please Don't Go"
AMY DAVIS - "?????"
BROOKE WHITE - "Happy Together"
ALEXANDREA LUSHINGTON - "What Goes Up"
KADY MALLOY- "Groovy Kind of Love"
ASIA'H EPPERSON - "Piece of My Heart"
RAMIELE MALUBAY - "Believe Me"
SYESHA MERCADO - "Tobacco Road"
CARLY SMITHSON - "The Shadow of Your Smile"
