Wow, I’m way behind!

American Idol 2008 has been over for several weeks now and everything I have to say now is stale-dated, but I still have to say it:

Top 5

Brooke White was eliminated here. That comes as no huge surprise… she just wasn’t talented enough here. She was good, and she became a sweetheart to many (me included), but she was ready to go.

Top 4

Unlike Brooke this wasn’t an upsetting elimination week. Jason Castro simply didn’t perform well during the rock n’ roll week, forgetting some lyrics and just not giving great performances. In himself he was just too laid back this time – for me, and I suspect for many of the voters.

Top 3

While she did outperform the two people I just mentioned, I never thought that with her weird personality that Sayesha Mercado would be here. Especially after her obnoxious smile during the group performance of One Sweet Day that I’ve mentioned before (not that the group performed it well anyway) I wanted her gone. Well, it was later than sooner I guess.

[I'll continue this in another post]
