Sanjaya looked like a "My Little Pony". I wanted to tie ribbons in his hair. :o Oh his singing?.... I'm speechless. :wink:

Speechless because he will be your next "American Idol"!

Did anybody see the 60 Minutes feature on Simon Cowell last week? Pretty interesting, he owns a piece of every version of 'Idol", and his company has exclusive rights to everybody's contracts, every single time any one of those kids sells a cd, it's money in his pocket, he's a pretty smart businessman, and is worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

I could only stare at the TV when Sanjaya was on. I couldn't form words. [smilie=blush.gif]

I don't think this will be his week to go. :roll:

My faves yesterday were Lakisha, Jordin, Melinda & Blake.

I thought Gwen Stefani was very pretty too. And she is so tiny.

I'm pretty sure Sanjaya's there to stay, for awhile at least. He's like a trainwreck. You want to look away, but you can't. And he definitely makes the show more entertaining.

Will he win? I don't know. This is the first season of Idol I've watched.

Beginning to suspect??? :pirate: :pirate: :roll:

There are quite a number of ways they can rig votes.
One easy way is to change the number of phone lines a contestant gets.

Say for example, Sanjaya has 100 phone lines open for 3 hours and Phil has 75 phone lines for 2 hours, 45 minutes.

Plus, there is the huge reverse-psychology that goes on in the voting, sympathy votes, and my favorite, the Vote For the Worst crew.

My prediction is Chris Sligh & Chris Richardson in the bottom two.

And Chris Sligh goes home.

I'm not a big fan of Sanjaya.... IMO, he has a problem remembering his words.
