WTF Happened on American Idol Tonight?


Okay, look, I know the audition phase is always a freak show, but tonight was in a class all its own.

For starters, on day one in Birmingham, Paula Abdul is trashed. I mean, right from the start. Just out of her freakin' head deeeeeeeeeerunk. Not the twitching-a-little-and-making-no-sense Paula we've come to know and love, but actually-on-the-floor-and-having-trouble- standing-and- laughing-at- inappropriate-times out of her goddamn skull drunk. I suppose it's possible that the sound feed between the auditioners and the judges table got dropped. Or, you know, the sound feed between Paula Abdul's brain and the rest of her body got dropped. Or, most likely, Paula herself got dropped on her head as a child. Sigh. This is only day one.

Day one also brings Jamie Lynn Ward, who is Kellie Pickler on acid. This girl has a Southern accent I didn't know you could actually hear outside the context of a comedy sketch. Simon asks her to tell them something interesting about herself. Which is the politest way the producers could come up with of getting at the following response: “I live wit may grammaw and may daddy’s paralyzed from here down. He shot hisself raight here (pointing to neck). His waif wuz cheatin awn im, which wuz may stepmomma an he cawt em in the act an it wuddn’t the firs time so like he shot her and he shot hisself and now I live wit may grammaw to help her take care a im." Beat. "But its okay."

Please, God, why am I laughing so hard right now? I can't stop! I am a bad person, I admit it. I have scoured YouTube for footage of this eloquence, but I can't find it yet. Please please please Lord let it be up tomorrow. Please please if any of you finds this on YouTube, send me the link. I'm begging you! I must have this thing on my blog.

By day two, Paula's in a rehab detoxing. Or, as Ryan Seacrest narrates, at a "family obligation" in Los Angeles. So it's just Randy and Simon at the judges table. Which, frankly, makes for a really strange chemistry, and I realize now how important Paula is, drunk and all. I know Birmingham isn't exactly the music capital of the world, but was there really no one in that city who could judge on short notice? For 30 million viewers? Tammy Wynette, where are you when we need you?

Alright, alright. I'm done for now. I'll shut up. In closing, to quote the inimitable Leslie Carter: "It's, like, wow!"

Lonniechung, I did a double take when I saw your post, b/c apparently I share my name with a porn star. Except I go the classy route and spell it with a "y."

I think she might be for real. A paper in Reidsville did a little story on her in 2005, saying she wanted to try out for American Idol.

How a property buyers agent saves you time and money?

Unlike a selling agent, a property
buyers agent acts exclusively and independently for a property buyer. A buyers agent will give you the best advice on how and where to buy a property that will suit your requirements. And if you are unsure of what to look for or simply don’t have the time, a buyers agent will inspect and short list suitable properties for you. A buyers agent is able to look for property in a wide range of locations from various different sources, unlike a selling agent who works in a specific area. They will also negotiate the best purchase price for you and ensure that the process of selecting and purchasing a property right through until settlement is a smooth and hassle free experience.

With offices in Sydney and Brisbane, Prosper Group are the Australian property buyers agents of choice for busy professionals. If you are considering buying a home or an investment property and need advice or require assistance with finding and negotiating the right property; call Prosper Group and speak with a qualified property buyers agent on 1300 664 373 or email us on enquiries@prospergroup.com.au

Any show like American Idol will always have it's supporters and detractors. However you have to admire the judges - imagine having to sit through all those auditions, especially when they are soooo bad YET they firmly believe they have talent.
