Before I get started, I have to say...what the heck is Steven Tyler wearing in his hair? A snippet of a mop??? Weird. Anywho.
It's LADIES' NIGHT! And as Ryan was talking on the show as it opened, I was shocked to hear we're going straight to the top 10, we aren't losing two guys and two girls every week. I'm sure they mentioned it at some point, but I must've missed it. Wow. We're losing a lot of people. I will give my revised boy list at the end.
Ta-Tynisa opens...I wasn't sure how she made it into the top 12 girls anyways. And she sucked. Big time. Don't like her at ALL. And I think she's stealing Julie's look with the little dress. Steven was way too kind, Jennifer lied to her face, and once again...RANDY WAS THE UNLIKELY VOICE OF REASON!! He's turned into Simon with how honest he is being.
Naima sang "Summertime". I remember loving her audition. I don't think we saw much of her in Hollywood week. I think she did a really good job. She looked really great, too. I like this girl. She's unique. KILLER end note.
Up next was Kendra, who I barely remember from the past several weeks. The way she was walking...she clearly thinks she is super sexy, but she's trying to hard. Don't know what song she sang, but I didn't really like it. Shriek-y a lot, too. She can go home. Randy let me down, I thought he was being honest, then he tells her she did good.
I remember Rachel from the season she tried out before. I remember kinda liking her. I think she's terrible this season, and tonight was no exception. She sounded rather man-ish. She did look great, though, and she did her best to work it. Just wasn't happening.
Karen who?? Can't remember her from the auditions. She starts out singing Mariah, switches to Spanish, and I just wasn't loving it. She sounds weak, you can't sing a Mariah song and NOT blow the song out of the water. She didn't hit the notes when she was supposed to. Get her a ticket home with Kendra. PS, Jennifer needs to get her ears checked.
Lauren Turner's turn was next, another girl I don't remember. Started off okay, the song was pretty bad, though. She definitely has something there, but the song didn't show anything off for her.
One of my favorites was next, Ms Ashthon. I have LOVED HER. Love the voice and the big hair. Her and Jacob would do a sick duet together. I didn't care for the song she sang (SHE should've done the Mariah song), but her voice is amazing. She's totally safe.
Julia's another of my favorite girls. Her dresses are amazing. But she is so much better than she showed during "Breakaway". I'm worried about her. She has a beautiful, soft voice. And she should NOT sing big songs like that. A Norah Jones song would've suited her much better. Poor thing, I hope she stays.
I can't stand Haley. I'm going to go on record of saying that. I think she did consistently terrible up to this point. She's just so full of herself when she sings. She did the best I think she's done so far with "Falling", but I just don't like her. I think she looks like TPT.
Thia Megia...I just love her name!!! She's cute as a button, too, and another of my girls. She started accapella, and she held her own. Then the music started, and she kept getting better. I was waiting for a huge note, and she delivered. LOVE THIS KID. And I usually hate fluffy dresses like that, but she looked fantastic. Jennifer was right, she captivated the room with her soft performance.
Lauren Alaina, a front-runner since Day One. And there's no doubt the girl can sing. She's got a Carrie Underwood country-pop sound, and I don't always love that style. I do think Lauren is better than she showed tonight, though. I think she's safe. But I like her hair better curly, I think it suits her face better.
Last was Pia. LOVED the song she sang, I've been a huge fan of that song since "A Walk In the Clouds". It's a song with potential for big singers to just OWN it. And I just don't feel like owned it. As Randy has said, "It was just alright for me, dawg." She tried to bring it home in the end, but I just didn't love it.
I have heard Randy say that it's going to Top Ten, but the commercial I saw said Top Twelve. So I don't know how many are actually going home. If five girls are staying, I want it to be Naima, Thia, Lauren Alaina, Ashthon, and Julie. If it's six, add in Lauren Turner (maybe even Pia), because I think she's better than that.
For guys, I want the top five to be Bret, Jacob, Stefano, James, and Casey. If a sixth guy is staying, I say Robbi should get it. I may not be right, but those are the guys/girls I'm rooting for. So we'll see!
Can't wait for tomorrow night!! =)
