re: American Idol-Season 16 (Hollywood Week)

Just caught this week's episodes too and I don't get all the fuss over Thaddeus.

He was a good singer but way too gospel in every performance imo. That last performance was kind of everywhere. They have voices like that every season and they rarely make it into the top 5. As is, they already have 5 black guys with big voices plus the drag queen in the top 12 who all have just as much talent and more range imo. Dennis Lorenzo puts Thaddeus to shame.


Lorenzo, Cade, and Johnny Brenns (a serious dark horse contender imo) are my top 3 guys.

Cade is a damn golden rock god and maybe the best guitar player they've ever had on Idol.

Plus, am I the only one that thinks he is Jason Segal's clone from Freaks and Geeks??




Maybe at some point he can do Lady L





My top 3 girls are Jurnee, Alyssa Raghu (Indian girl that lives with dad), and Shannon O Hara.

The girls dark horse is surprisingly Catie Holmes. She's a damn freak but if she would just chill out I think she can really sing. She had a new take on Gaga and if she can stop being a spaz so more people will vote for her I think she's going to give some good performances.

Looking forward to hearing the judges actually critique after live performances and not these weird edited pieces of what they're saying. I think they are all in on the AI spirit and going to be a good panel.
