VS. Jordin the Diva!!
Well, it's all said and done. The final performances completed, voting ceased, and now we must wait with bated breath through a two hour show filled with pointless red carpet interviews, former wanna be idols who didn't get a record contract and are now serving as AI correspondents, millions of performances by A-lister celebrities who (during AIs earlier years) made fun of AI and refused to acknowledge its existence until we get to be given our results. The finale shows have become more entertaining as the years go by and it is fun to watch, but two hours?? Is two hours really necessary? I suppose it is when we're reaching the climatic conclusion to a five month run.
So, what is the result going to be? Is the beat-boxing, ultimate entertainer going to take it? Or the 17 year old with a voice bigger than all her years going to walk away with the crown? Anyone who has been following my reviews throughout this season knows that Blake is my man. What he lacks in strong vocals, he makes up for in sheer entertainment. However, I have to say, however much it hurts that I think Jordin is going to take the title. She far outshone Blake last night in vocal superiority and my guess is that votes that were formerly going to Melinda are probably now being thrown Jordin's way. I could be surprised. I could actually get my way for the first time in reality TV history and have my first choice win, but I somehow doubt it. And really, if Blake doesn't win, I'll be.....OK. I like Jordin, too. And truthfully, this finale is a little anti-climatic for me. I was really hoping to see Melinda and Blake in the finals, so this is kinda----bleh.
The high point of last night's show for me?????
I just wish they would have saved him for tonight. Why have him singing "Home" on a night when no one's going home?? How much sense does that make? Oh, well. Just glad I got to see him. But I do need to ask him, "What is with all that eye liner, dude?!!"
Wow. Now that AI is at the end, and I've finished all the Harry Potter books and movies, I seriously do not have a single clue what I'm going to do to entertain myself from here on out. Angst.

Ok, I've got your viewing entertainment all lined up, Kristen. Monday, June 4th on Fox.
Hell's Kitchen! Seriously, I LOVE it. I'll bet you would, too.
He WAS wearing eyeliner, wasn't he. I thought, wow, did he get his eyelids tatooed or something? I think I kind of liked the look but I'd rather have seen him tonight, too.
And I'm so surprised more people haven't said they think the Melinda vote will go to Jordin. I've thought that since the second she got voted off last week. I think people who voted for Melinda are a lot more likely to like Jordin.
But I love Blake. He soooo reminds me of Sting. I'd like him to win just so I can see his Dad's reaction. I love his softhearted Dad.
I expect Jordin to slam dunk him tonight. But honestly, either one will be a great new American Idol. And both will get huge record contracts.
I expect you're right and Jordin will win, but I sure wish it was Blake. Who knows?
I'm mixed on who will win. I honestly like both of them a lot and I would be happy either way.
How did I miss Chris?? I watched the whole thing, I thought. Weird!!
I'm sure you'll find something else to do! lol Maybe I should start watching American Idol when it starts up again so that I'll know what you are all talking about! hehe xoxo
Drum Roll please...
After a world record vote of 74 millon the winner of American Idol 2007 is ........

I know Blake's your man.....Kristen...but he's gonna be just fine!!!
What a talented final two! It was a tough choice.
What a talented 17 year old!
Ok....she's gonna sing...
Yeah--and Paula's crying....
How can she sing with all of this emotion!
Oh--and she cries out to her mom and dad...."I love you"...and yes, there they are on the TV screen wiping the tears.....
How emotional! Thanks for giving us the updates Kristen, so we could slack off until tonight! ;)
Diane
P.S. It's really not right to have the winner sing right after winning...for crying out loud...she's squeaking!!!!
