So, I watched Idol tonite. A guilty pleasure I admit, I should be watching something intelligent, but what can I say, I love to watch Simon trash on the kids. It's sick, but I love it. They kicked off two that I 100% was on board for. You cannot do Queen as a metrosexual African American dancer and expect that you're going to gain fans. Freddie Mercury is a legend. You're just a broadway backup dancer. The girls was forgettable.
The two that pissed me off though were the two minors that made it through! The boy was horrible. Like you took a nervous geek, threw him up on stage during his high school talent show and gave him ex-lax as a joke beforehand. The girl who is a honor student beauty queen in the making who sang pageant songs instead of anything relavent to a teenage girl.
The real talent was sent home. I was hopeful that finally we would have a season without a David Archuleta type kid. I was wrong.
So the title of my post...is in reference to why I owe one of the contestants a tremendous apology because I feel personally responsible for his exile. Alex Lambert to me sounds like a cross between Jason Mraz and Johnny Lang, but looks a little like Bryan Adams. Yes. I did it, I invoked the Adam's.
("The Adams": a curse of Canadian origin that places catchy tunes in a person's head that only come out at the most inappropriate times in an offkey manner i.e. Great Aunt Mildred's funeral mass.) Just kiddin, I dont have a Great Aunt Mildred. That I know of anyway.
So, this poor little bastard on idol had no idea that this mom in New England placed "the Adams" on him and now he's going home instead of to the top 12 shows. Sorry Alex, I wasn't thinking.
