2.2.10 American Idol Episode Review


American Idol auditions continued last night in the Mile High City of Denver. I’m personally looking forward to the Hollywood round and moving on from the endless footage of whackos, sucky singers, and people just wanting to get on TV for 30 seconds.

To ensure the ratings bonanza American Idol has received this season they decided to bring back Posh Spice aka Victoria Beckham for another go-round of guest judge duties. I think the lack of eating and the mile high elevation affected Posh’s brain as I truly believe she thought she was on Project Runway. She spent all of her time talking about everyone’s hair, makeup, skin and clothes. And, is it just me or is she starting to morph into a praying mantis?

There seemed to be a major lack of talent in Denver but there were a few standouts. Haeley Vaughn, a 16 year old high school student, whose goal is to become the first black pop-country mainstream singer had a nice voice and impressed the judges with her talent and originality. Contestant Casey James impressed some of the judges after taking his shirt off…at the request of Randy no less and won a golden ticket to Hollywood.

One of the most notable idiots from the show was Kenny Everett. Kenny, who likened himself to a male Mary J. Blige, said he performs a community service by singing out in public because his voice brings the community together. I’m pretty sure that the only groups that show up when Kenny sings are the angry neighbors who want him to shut his mouth. Even after he was humiliated by the judges Kenny continued to bring people together out in the lobby of the audition venue.

The episode ended with Ty Hemmerling, now known as Bikini Boy, walking into the audition. It took the judges all but a half second to get up and walk out of the room. There were a total of 26 golden tickets handed out in Denver. Bring on the Hollywood round!
