American Idol Has A Springtime Ho-Down
Published March 24, 2004
Randy said it was an incredible performance. Paula said it was the most fun she ever had. I wonder if that includes anything she ever did with Emelio Estevez????? Simon said it was fantastic. Even Steven Cojocaru popped in this week to offer his queer eye for you and the troops. Is it just me or does he look like the bastard child of Marilyn Manson and Carol Channing????? Well, anyway, the dazzling queen of fashion just loves you and so do I. OOOOOOOOOH Triple Kisses LaToya! Smooch-Smooch-Smooch!
2. Fantasia Barrino - "Always On My Mind" -Willie Nelson
Fantasia has the most enormous mouth I have ever seen. Mick Jagger would be jealous for cripes sake. Seatriscuit, my trusty horse for the evening, leans up and whispers that Fantasia is going to be singing Willie Nelson tonight. WOOOHOOOO! Somebody pass be a doobie stat! My best friend loves Willie Nelson. He is the only man in the world who tokes on a peace pipe and rollerblades up and down a bike path stoned. Well folks, meet the Fantasia version of Willie - it is cursed by the gospel, and it is muy fah-bu-loso!
Fantasia slinks onstage in a gorgeous black dress. She is standing stage left behind a collage of video screens behind her back. Looking elegant and determined, this girl managed to make a Willie Nelson song enjoyable to me - which speaks worlds for this girl's talent. She changed it up and slowed it down. She made the song sound like it had never been sung before so I gotta give her props for it. Like the goofy woman holding a sign in the audience, I too am a "Fan of Tasia."
Randy said you were controlled. Paula called you classy and exquisite. Simon said you are not a middle-age singer (whatever Simon, that's what they said to Kelly Clarkson, and they were wrong about that too). Fantasia was simply not having it tonight from Simon. She started clucking her head back and forth and she shouted out, "I already proved I can get down with the get down." You tell him Miss Girl! If you can make me enjoy a Willie Nelson tune, you did more than "get down" tonight - you performed a freaking miracle. Praise Jesus!
1. Amy Adams - "Sin Dragon" -The Dixie Chicks
"Hi, my name is Amy, and I just took up bulimia as a hobby!" Did anyone else notice that Amy looks as if she lost 20 pounds this week???? When we first see Amy she is begging her mommy for a mullet. Sheesh, that was surely an indication that she was going to rock the door off the barn tonight. Somehow it seems that speech impediments are contagious tonight, because Amy said she loved listening to "Ookits." Amy then concludes her video claiming to be the zippedeedoodah-est, most fun person in the world - WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

OOOPS. You are right!
Sorry - not into Country. I will note the change on my website this evening.
Thanks.
Amy Adams should sing country, yes. But - she shouldn't sing it (or anything else) on that show, because quite frankly: she's about as boring watching Driving Miss Daisy and Ben Hur back-to-back.
Her best performance. But that really isn't say much, now is it?
Go Fantasia!







uhh...."Sin Wagon"?
