    << <i>Carrie's RC definately went down again, while Constantine's keeps going up. >>



    ??

    dude all Carrie had to do was wear those jeans to make me like her more.. her and Vonzelle were the best again tonight..
    ·p_A·
  • That your problem, if you would have listened to her sing, you would have realized that she SUCKED! If it wasn't for her fan base, she would be in the bottom 3 tomorrow.

    I like Carrie but she "forced" the song - Pat Benatar is in a world class of her own with a vocal range/training in the opera arena. I think she blew it tonite! I agree with NBA, she deserves to be in the bottom - based on her performance tonite.

    I think Vonzell sang great tonight. Nadia's choice was bad but she sounded pretty good. Constantine was in good form but the shortening of the song hurt the overall performance IMO.

    Bo should not have sung Freebird - I agree with Simon - that's a weed-smokin ass kickin guitar solo song that doesn't really showcase a solo vocalist IMO.

    Tuff call tonite - bottom 3? select from: Nadia, Anthony, Scott and surprise?...Carrie?

  • Ill go with Mike's bottom three.

    I think Scott is by far the worst of the group. I was embarrassed for him tonight. Singing so poorly and in front of Hall and Oates. Yuk.

    I was talking with my wife and she thought Bo singing Freebird will put him in the bottom 3!

    I was not surprised that Nadia got the boot - her song selection killed her! But Scott has been losing
    steam and his attitude is getting a tad combative IMO.

    My wife did good in selecting Bo - I had Carrie as the surprise. So kudos to the "boss" of the house!

    Talk to ya next week...this has been very enjoyable.

    And I really like the idea of the Idol auto cards.

  • Dang, I wasnt able to watch. Thanks for the update.

    Nadia would have been a foolish pick a couple of weeks ago. Too bad for her.

    The thing about Scott, to me, is that I just dont find him likeable at all. A somewhat bitter personality and just not that good of a singer. Im guessing Darryl Hall was wincing when Scott sang his song last night.

    Who the heck is voting for him anyway?

    OH well. Fun stuff image

    Heres what I got from my case

    I also got a box with all 12 autos in it.

    Reality Bits Memorabilia Cards

    Leah LaBelle x3
    Jennifer Hudson X 2
    George Huff
    Jon Peter Lewis
    Jasmine Trias 2 color
    Fantasia
    John Stevens
    Matthew Rogers X 2

    Sign, Sealed, Delivered Autos

    Camile Velasco X 3
    Leah LaBelle X 2
    John Stevens X 1
    John Peter Lewis X 3
    Jennifer Hudson X 2
    Matthew Rogers X 3
    Amy Adams X 2
    Jasmine Trias X 5
    George Huff X 3
    LaToya London X 4
    Fantasia X 5
    Diana DeGarmo X 4
    Randy Jackson Redemption X 3
  • Good news and bad news with that bust. You should definately be able to make your money back. Trias and DeGarmo are still selling for around $10 a piece and a Trias 2 color Reality Bits also recently sold for around $10. Bad news was you only got one complete set which is a bummer. Dave and Adam just recently raised the price of their single boxes to $17 also.

    You could probably keep a set and sell the rest and still either make money or get your money back on the rest.

    Make sure you put together the Idol chatter set or sets. They get around $10 and the Gold sets bring in around another $5.
  • Stone193Stone193 Posts: 24,478 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Looks like a cool set - can we see any scans of the autos?

    Onto tonite's biz - I'm guessing music from the 90s? And who will stink up the place and be leaving?
    I think at this point, Scott has to go?
    Vonzell has been picking up steam - will she actually keeping flying and wind up in the final two? Could we wind up with Carrie and Vonzell? Who knows?

    See ya after the show.

    I had a dream that the bottom 3 was I think, didn't look exactly like them, except for Scott.

    Constantine, Scott, and Carrie.

    Constantine got to sit down

    And I didn't get to see which got the boot, because I didn't get to watch the show and the radio wasn't working right, but I think Carrie ended up getting the boot from what I was hearing from other people.
  • NBAFanNBAFan Posts: 744
    Ebay is a great place for scans of the autos. My friend was selling some of mine, otherwise I would have posted pics.

    Best looking autos are DeGarmo, Trias, and Leah LaBelle.

    Any fans of clean and nice looking autos would love those 3.
  • Stone193Stone193 Posts: 24,478 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Bo Bice and Vehicle!!!

    The perfect song and the singer of the nite for me! I thought Carrie "oversung" her song. Vonzell continues to grow on me - I hate the song since it was the theme for Oprah - but I do like Chaka and her personality carried her.

    It's tougher for me to bottom 3 this week - but I could pass on Anwar and his version of "September" - I think Scott may find himself on the bottom again this week along with? Carrie? Constantine? Look for a surprise in the bottom this week?

    I have been wanting Bo to sing Vehicle since I heard his voice - and he didn't let me down - the song woulda been better if he could have sung the entire song.

    What was your favorite of the nite? Keith?

    mike

    Mike
  • I still dont believe that Scott belongs on the same stage as the others. Who in the world is voting for him?

    I did like Vonzell, Anthony and Carrie.

    Bo just doesnt do it for me. He is always singing a Blood Sweat and Tears type song and, like last night, he just sounds too much like the original. What is he going to sing on his own cd?

    It would be really interesting if there were two surprises in the bottom 3 tonight.

    But, based strictly on my opinion, Scott is BY FAR the worst singer remaining.

    We will see image.
  • halosfanhalosfan Posts: 2,644 ✭✭✭✭
    I thought that Anwar was a good choice to go home tonight. It also keeps the Stepford Barbie around another week!

  • Stone193Stone193 Posts: 24,478 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I'm not surprised that Anwar went home but I still think Scott should have gone first. No big surprises tonite...well looks like another week is gone and we'll see what happens next week. I think that they should have had some kind of "wild card" selection of some kind for the panel to select and in that way bring someone back that got shafted.

    It's been a pleasure guys.

    Seacrest...OUT!
    Mike
  • Im ok with Anwar leaving, and was ok with the bottom three as it seemed accurate to me.

    But I have to ask again.........Who is voting for Scott?

    I cant imagine that he is a real hit with the teenage girls or women. Who does that leave? He must have some techie friends that are piling votes onto his total.

    Im also getting a little tired of Seacrest as well. His little snips with Simon are turning more bitter than clever. And thats just not entertaining to me.

    Id love to see a double elimination night, but that would reduce the ad dollars.

    It will really get interesting when it gets to the final four (Carrie, Constantine, Vonzell and Bo (IMHO))

    << <i>Im also getting a little tired of Seacrest as well. His little snips with Simon are turning more bitter than clever. And thats just not entertaining to me. >>


    Keith
    I agree...WTF is going on with them? I was just wondering if this isn't an "act" created by the handlers to keep an edge to the show? If not, cut it out already.

    It's interesting about Scott - I think he is getting the "pity" vote - when Simon slams him, they vote for him! There's a lot of guys out there overweight and not so cool looking who identify with him...hey! that sounds like a description of me! Seriously, he has a "group" of his own. When Simon called Anthony's performance insipid, I had to run to the computer and look it up!LOL

    I will say at this point...Song Selection is going to be very important with who gets to go or stay IMO.

    Looking forward to it...I feel like such a geek for being an "idol fan" but have been watching it since it started. And we all know by my pics that I'm a closet band idol wannabe if that kind of show existed.
    Take this for what it's worth, the year I left to go in the Army, the band where my brother was bass player won a major battle of the bands on Long Island! You can see I wasn't missed!LOL

    Later,

    Idol update.

    Carrie Underwood autos are one of the boring looking, but still fetching the most as low as 12.50 and as high as 75.00 currently with time remaining. Constantine with a nice looking auto is second.

    In my opinion, best to worst looking autos.


    Anwar Robinson
    Jessica Sierra
    Lindsey Cardinale
    Mikalah
    Constantine
    Nadia Turner
    Vonzell
    Bo Bice
    Anthony Federov
    Scott Savol
    Carrie
    Nikko

    Very disappointed in Carrie and Nikko for just signing their first name with no flair to the signature. Mikalah, Constantine, and Vonzell did the same, but they are nicer looking sigs. Federov is sloppy, but gave him credit for the full name.


  • pandrewspandrews Posts: 7,598 ✭✭✭

  • Bo just doesnt do it for me. I so hope its Scott that leaves tonight.
  • Stone193Stone193 Posts: 24,478 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Was a little late today - I thought last nite was on the boring side. Did not like the song selections overall.

    I think Carrie sang the kind of song that you hear in a local bar - she admitted she knew the song already!
    Took the ez way out. For that she is bottom 3.

    My bottom 3 - Carrie, Scott and Constantine. The others were just OK I guess.

    See ya after the elimination show.

    BTW, OT, anyone like 2 1/2 Men? With Charlie Sheen?

    mike
    Mike
  • Good bye Constantine. Not the best, but not the worst either. Oh well.

    What is the deal with Paula? She cries her eyes out every time.

    And, what I think is beyond comprehension, Scott is still there.
  • MintstateMintstate Posts: 254 ✭✭


    << <i>

    Not only is he still there, he wasn't even in the bottom 3 ?? He looked as shocked as everyone else to be in the top group. He certainly didn't belong there this week.

    You're my hero!!

    At least I had Constantine in the bottom but I never had him gone!!! My opinion - great voice - not a true "Rocker" as he sold himself and only could get the chick vote. He constantly makes "goo goo" eyes to the camera which shrinks the testicles of most guys beyond recognition!!! Bo is the "real deal Rocker" tho his voice has only one dimension.

    I now predict Carrie/Bo final.

    On Scott - guy is average and getting a very large pity vote a la "She bangs, she bangs!" LOL

    Everytime Simon shoots off his big mouth and tells someone to "pack their bags" out comes the pity voters with auto dialers!

    See ya all next week
    So Perry prediction for next week? I say Scott has had about 72 minutes more than his 15 minutes of fame!!

    Im not sure if I want to listen to Scott anymore, so I might skip tonight. I have been reading that there is some sort of "Vote for the Worst" website that is supporting him. That would answer the question of who in the world would vote for Scott.
  • Stone193Stone193 Posts: 24,478 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Hi Keith
    Overall, Scott actually did pretty well tonite. Based on what I saw, Anthony could be the bottom feeder with a surprise exit by Vonzell tomorrow nite?

    I thought Bo and Carrie were the top performers.

    mike
    Mike
  • pandrewspandrews Posts: 7,598 ✭✭✭
    yep, anthony will go home..
    ·p_A·
  • Im not a Bo fan at all, but he finally stopped sounding like a karioke singer last night. Carrie was great as always (biased).

    Scott was Scott. If he doesnt go, it will probably be Anthony.
  • Stone193Stone193 Posts: 24,478 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Anyone want to guess at a surprise exit?

    Mine if for Vonzell.

  • halosfanhalosfan Posts: 2,644 ✭✭✭✭
    My vote is Vonzell and Anthony in the bottom two. Can we get a double elimination? Bo should be the overall winner this season. But I defer to Pandrews as he knows!!!

  • Stone193Stone193 Posts: 24,478 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Well, not a major surprise but Anthony has more fans at this point - regardless of how he and Scott sang last nite.

    Well it's about time that we said goodbye to Scottie.

    surely he'll go home next week..
    ·p_A·
  • CubfanCubfan Posts: 1,545
    Goodbye Scottie the big ole body. There was just something about his attitude and persona that rubbed me the wrong way. Never mind his lack of (comparatively speaking) singing talent.

    Anthony has to be next. Hes like a junior higher playing with the high schoolers right now.

    And again, there was that unfunny bit between Simon and Seacrest last night where Seacrest's comeback was more bitter than clever or funny.

    After Anthony goes, it will get tough.

    Idol Chat:

    I think this guy Cory Clark has balls! Why now? Why ever? He wants to sell a book and CD's - if he even sells the book - it will be on the 99 cent bargain bin in 3 months! If he sells a CD, it will be in the 77 cent bargain bin after 3 months!

    On ABC providing this issue "Prime Time" jounalistic coverage? Pure crap - probably sour grapes since FOX has one of the biggest hits on TV in many, many years.

    Paula may have messed up, but the item rates right up there with Pee Wee Herman beating off in a dark porno movie theater!!! Where's the beef!?

    image

    There's just no meat on the "bones of this story!"

    What was of interest was the method of isolating the person kicked off this week - very clever - at first I'm thinking that Scott thought he was "safe" but Ryan said - "sit over here" but never said "you are safe" and Scott raises his arms up like he just won the lottery! But then when Anthony was with him - I noticed he said something to him - and I would guess it was: "hey - I think we are in the bottom feeders gallery"

    mike
    Mike
  • NBAFanNBAFan Posts: 744
    Anthony knew something was up when Ryan told him to go sit down. He said, in a worried voice, "It's not over".

  • Even when Seacrest started talking to Anthony at the end, old Scotty raised his arms. Too bad.

    I guess I dont find this "expose" all that shocking or unexpected. And Paula is doing the Bill Clinton version of not denying it happened but trying to destroy the reputation of the accuser. She seems like a flake, so what? If she did or didnt doesnt matter to me.

    Interesting mix left. If Anthony doesnt leave next week, the conspiracy theorists will abound. I didnt look but did votefortheworst pick a new poster child?
  • NBAFanNBAFan Posts: 744
    Wow, what a subpar week.

    No one was really that great.

    Personally I didn't care for Carrie on either song. Bo was boring/safe on the first song and sounded good on the second one. Baby V wasn't very good on her first song and it even sounded/looked like she got mixed up with the words and arrangement at one point, but didn't let that stop her. Song was slow and boring. Second song was much better and more enjoyable. Anthony was decent on both songs, but there was no spark and they were nothing special, just safe and average at best.

    So really it is going to come right down to who's fans can get in the most votes. I just don't think anything is going to keep Carrie from being in the finals, no matter how bad she does. Everyone else in my opinion is potentially on the chopping block.

    I know we all want it to be Federov, but it could easily be Bo or Baby V.

    You pretty much nailed it - what I was thinking.

    Overall worst performer tonite? Carrie - she stunk up the stage IMO. Altho, appearing safe and OK, Anthony did way better with both songs.

    Based on tonite's performance and forgetting about the past? Carrie should pack her bags and head to Nashville where she will have one hell of a great career.

    I could see Anthony taking the trip tho. Who knows? Anything can happen.

    As of right now - my top two has shifted to Bo and Vonzie.

  • NBAFanNBAFan Posts: 744
    I would love for Bo and Vonz to be in the finals, I think it would be more enjoyable. I still think there are too many people voting for Carrie and not enough voting for Vonz.
  • pandrewspandrews Posts: 7,598 ✭✭✭
    anthony really needs to go..
    ·p_A·
  • For whatever reason, I liked Carrie's songs and thought the others were slightly off. But what do I know.

    The voting is so fickle. I cant imagine how Anthony would not be in the bottom two this week after being there for so long prior to this week.

    Do they still do bottom two when there are only 4 left?
  • Stone193Stone193 Posts: 24,478 ✭✭✭✭✭
    Idol Chat:

    The voting remained statistically modeled by previous weeks:

    Bo and Carrie most pop and then Vonzie and Anthony.

    And we will have to say goodbye to Anthony.

    No big surprises. Now, if Carrie keeps underwhelming the judges? Ya never know.

    See ya next week!
    mike
    Mike
  • Now its going to be interesting. I really dont think Vonzell is the best of the three. And Bo does nothing for me, but I can see how he is so popular. Im biased towards Carrie. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. All three can be extremely good or extremely bland depending on the song.

    I agree Keith
    Some of the songs just aren't doing for me. I have not been inspired much. We'll see next week.

    And if Bo didn't do anything for the guys...what about Constantine making goo goo eyes at the camera all the time - I could feel my testicles shrinking to the size of peanuts! That's not the way to get the hetero vote IMO!

    Bo, lay off the winking and go for the rough and tough bar stage type performer - the girls will get hot and the guys will think you are "cool" - just my opinion.

    This was one of the better evenings with the final three coming out pretty strong.

    My final take: Bo, Vonzel and then Carrie.

    I think Bo stayed within himself overall. The second acappella was boring to me - I kept waiting for someone to yell "play ball!" - and the last song arrangement of I can't... - I felt like I was at a wedding reception - having said that, he still carried himself well and did a good job.

    Vonzel started weak with the first song and then rocked with Chain... and finished up strong with Radio.

    Carrie was just good in that her last song by Twain started out like she was trying to sing like her and then she broke into her own voice - but she didn't look confortable singing it. Overall for the evening - a good job. Her opener of Cryin' was very, very good IMO, the air supply number was pretty good also.

    So, I think it's time for Carrie to head out to the Grand Ole Opry and make some hits! But, having said that, Vonzel always seems to be the bottom feeder - so I think she will not carry the vote.
    Bo will most likely get the most votes.

    what do ya think?
    mike

    Mike
  • Personally, Bo just does nothing for me.

    Vonzell did very well tonight.

    I think Carrie will be the easiest one to find new songs for and turn into a popular star when she has her album (or cd for you youngsters).

    Im still a Carrie fan, but just have no way of predicting how everyone votes.
  • NBAFanNBAFan Posts: 744
    I'm hoping Carrie goes Bye Bye, but it will most likely be Vonzie. I personally thought the air supply number was her worst performance, she sounded like she was shouting too much.

    I agree on Bo, he was great on the first song, only thing that will hurt him with that song was Clay Aiken sang that song and really owned it. Second song was boring, but he did sound great. Third song was just a "fun" song to me. It was like when Paula picked Mack the Knife for Clay.

    Vonzie, she started out a little rough the first song, but it was still decent. Second song was very good. Third song I felt wasn't a good choice for her, it really didn't allow her to fully show off her vocals, but she still sounded good.

    I'm thinking it will be Bo and Carrie with Vonzie a distant 3rd. I just don't see her racking up enough votes, unless all of Anthony's votes went her way.
