Season 9: Best for Last

Still no Goosebumps... wonder if tonight will bring it? Megan Wright is the one that comes closest.

Jessice Fruney-20-KS: good she's back, but vocally, ehhhhh, too loud, soft has a better register, we'll see.

amanda shectman-19-NY: tan lines distracting.... okay, good, nothing wow! the drama won't buy her fans, but whatever... fake cry anyone??????

lee dewyze-23-IL: reminds me of daughtry.. like his voice!... watch for him....... wan to see more!

Crystal Bowersox-23-OH: like the voice... she's unique, want to see more of her too

Daughtry is my favorite fake out hide the golden ticket

Lacey Brown-23-TX: like her version of this song, like her, want to see more, like the tone and the scrufness

Rachel hubbard, TX- she's good, nice control

Ghaddeus Johnson- nice

Genesis moore- love her voice!!!

Michael Lynche : looks like Cool J... lynche: nice but not unique... sounds like a few others...

Season 9: Denver & Bikini Boy News

Mark Labriola- 28-CO- Cheese boy has a really good voice, I liked it. Stands out a little bit more for me.

Kimberly Kerbow-24-CA- she was just okay

Danelle Hayes- Little too forced rock, which you usually get when they are doing cover bands, I do want to see more, she has a voice behind the 'rock' yelling.

Simon was very funny, in a very good mood last night.

Casey James-27-TX- good voice, he's unique, I do agree with Simon about it being the wrong song. I won't comment on the sexist behavior by Kara, but it really ticked me off

Tori Kelly-16-CA- She looks much older than 16, love those pictures from her little friend. Vocally? okay.

Kara please stop with the "I REALLY like you (bob, mandy, etc).... augh

Austin Paul- just have to say that I am glad he didn't make it through, he was grating on my nerves before he even went into the audition room

I do appreciate the lack of a lot of the 'bad' auditions

Nicci Nix- 22- Italy?- vocally she is decent. She already has a cool stage name, so let's see where this goes. Her speaking voice might drive the judges nuts, but we'll see

Haley Vaughn-16- I too, like that she is going for the Pop Country, but I am not sure about her, vocally she was okay, my hubby liked her vocally but we'll see.....

So our first trimester is almost over ( see: HERE )

Anxious for Hollywood week, totally weeds out so fast and I love it!

okay, now for news on Bikini boy- The radio station that I did commentary for in season 7 talked to him this morning, I'll have to see if there was a podcast I can direct you too. The guy is /a was a radio personality and did it as a stunt for his show. He sat there all day in that bikini, he said he was shocked that he actually got through to the judges at all b/c he was just hoping for some pix and exposure while mingling with the contestants. He was pretty funny though. His radio voice is cool.
