(I will start listening to the singing when they start the live shows)

Hilarious watching Randy make fun of Kara'a swooning over Casey.

Black nail polish. I think that was Mary. Well she's........uh, never mind. Not sure if you've seen this.

lol
Can't believe I forgot last weeks post again. And it's already time for this week. Aired last night but I haven't watched it yet. Anyway all they did on day 2 of last week was show the remaining 17 that were selected. Here is the final roster.

Gals

Didi Benami
Katelyn Epperly
Janell Wheeler
Lacey Brown
Ashley Rodriguez
Crystal Bowersox
Katie Stevens
Lilly Scott
Paige Mills
Siobhan Magnus
Michelle Delamor
Hayley Vaughn

Guys

Casey James
Aaron Kelly
Lee Dewyse
Todrick Hall
Michael Lynche
Tyler Grady
Alex Lambert
Joe Munoz
Jermaine Sellers
John Park
Andrew Garcia
Tim Urban

I'm still going for Didi and Casey.
That could easily change after this week.

The girl with the black nail polish was Janell - not Mary - and she got through!

Probably will watch at the week end

Don't read my posts till after that

Here's the way I watch this show once we get down to elimination time. I watch only the performance. I don't want to see al the bs that goes on before I decide who I like. That includes the judges. Simon is the only one who is honest all the time. The others are ok sometimes, but most of the time they don't want to hurt any feelings. I have watched both guys and gals first round today. That would be four hours of programming. I watched what I need to make a decision in about 40 minutes. Here are my rankings for both groups after that round including the song they performed. Quite honestly most sucked. With tonights show they will give the boot to 2 contestants from each group. So my bottom 2 from each of those would be my nominees. Not saying I can possibly predict this. But it's fun to speculate.

I only nailed 1 out of the 4 boots this week, with John Park and Jermaine Sellers out for the guys and Michelle Delamor and Haley Vaughn for the gals. Those losers would be my 5th, 8th, 10th and 7th picks respectively.

So far I like Crystal. She seems like a natural.
