Bereavement's Over!

I have written a few articles since I last posted on here, interviews with eliminated contestants: Kady Malloy, Asia'h Epperson, Luke Menard, Danny Norriega, and David Hernandez. If you would like to read them, they have been published by the Walton Sun.

I missed Amanda's interview, so I'm a little bummed out about that.

The latest buzz, of course, is whether or not there will be a wild card during Idol Gives Back. I have a glimmer of hope that Alexandrea will come back! I wish that I had more readership, to get Alex some well-deserved attention but I will keep plugging on, knowing that one day, she will rise to the top and I can say, I knew she was a star all along!

I am favoring the guys right now - David A., David Cook, Jason Castro and Chikezie!

Sanjaya at Book Signing at Borders in Glendale, New York!




As soon as I get more information, I will pass on. I had these two photos emailed to me.
I see a lot of Fanjayas there!

Sorry, I'm in Bereavement!

So much catching up to do! I'm wearing black for my favorite's early departure. Honestly, what happened here? Two girls went home who were undeserving - Alaina and Alexandrea, my top two picks from last week.

In my humble opinion, Kady and Amanda should have left instead. In Paula's words "THIS IS A SINGING COMPETITION PEOPLE!"

Since last Thursday (my birthday by the way) I have been trying to figure out how Alexandrea got sent home. I have read every article I could find discussing the eliminations - almost 99% of them said she shouldn't have been the one to leave. What is the most disconcerting about her dismissal is that she never got to show her potential or for me, perform her Amy Winehouse song. I am bummed about that. Of the girls left, none of them can work the stage like Alex. I'm most disappointed that she won't be on tour. The American Idol Tour needs her.

I did manage to get both "Spinning Wheel" and "If You Leave Me Now" played on our local radio over the weekend. WooooooHoooooo!

Maybe I should sell black armbands that say "Bring Back Alex!"

I am hoping for another interview, stay tuned to see what develops.
