I know some of you have been waiting for my American Idol reviews, but due to the lunar eclipse and a packed schedule, I haven’t had much time to sit down and write about it. For now, I’ll give you my favorites and not-so favorites.

Female Faves:
Ramiele Malubay - Of course, my favorite female. I know about 10 people that look like her. You could argue that the judges like her because she’s a cute, little Asian girl, but she really is talented. My only issue is that I have to fight the urge to get up in front of the TV to push her hair out of her face.

Brooke White - She’s sweet…don’t know if she’ll make it all the way, but I like her

Syesha Mercado - Great voice, great hair

Truthfully, I didn’t pay as much attention to the ladies as I did the gents, basically because during most of their performances I was thawing off.

Male Faves:
Danny Noriega - Sorry, my Rami, my little Filipino buttercup, I have to admit that Danny is my favorite. Sure, he kinda sucked last week, but I love him. That boy is FIERCE! And I never user that term, so you know it’s something special. Some people compare him to Sanjaya from last season, but Danny is sassier, has better hair, and is a better singer. Now if he could only stop pouting and try to have a good time when he’s not singing, he’d be purrr-fect.

Michael Johns - You know, when Harry Connick Jr. came out, I thought he was a nice looking guy and loved his music. However, after I saw him in concert, I thought he was one of the sexiest things alive. Michael Johns is a little like that. If you just look at his pictures, he just look ok. But once he gets on stage and does his thing, he has a way with the audience and a charisma that you can’t deny. This Aussie is going to go far, but I hope he doesn’t win - the foreigners already took over our Academy awards, I don’t want them to take over American Idol, too!

Luke Menard - Great singer? No. Striking stage presence? No. Yummy eye candy? Yes.

The Non-Faves a.k.a. THEY GOTS’TA GO!
Jason Yeager - to me, completely forgettable. He doesn’t stand out. I actually had to look up the AI website to figure out what his hame was

One the the non-Brooke blondes - to me, they’re all the same. I think I like Kristy Lee Cook because she reminds me a bit of Kristy Swanson. Or was that the other AI blonde? Ack. One of them has to go, just so I can remember who’s who

Amanda Overmeyer - as much as I love Amanda Overmeyer, she is NOT having a good time. She has an awesome voice, a great stage presence, but unfortunately, one of the things you have to do in American Idol is the cheesey group song and dance, and I don’t want to sit through the next couple months watching Amanda hardly going through the motions in those performances wishing she was riding her Harley.

So who are your current faves? Who do you think should get a one way ticket to American Idol obscurity?
