Random Musings:

- Danny - I dont think America was homophobic. I think he rubbed people the wrong way. My wife has a gay brother. Not a homophobic bone in her body. She despised Danny. Though he was a smug cocky little douchebag. My wife used to teach so she hates teenagers who act like jagoff teenagers. And Danny did. A bit TOO sassy for a fuckin 18 year old. That was his turn off. Sanjaya was comparable, but he wasnt as much of a pissed off little dick.

- Kady - fuckin' a - did she gain like 40 pounds since the auditions? At the audition, she looked smokin' in her black and white print sundress. On last nites show, she looked like she swallowed Ramielle. Fuckin' a. Bad song choices. Judges beating the piss out of her didnt help. I think it came down to nerves. She's an 18 year old kid singing in front of 35 million people. Nerves will get ya. Some do it better than others. The reason Archuletta is so comfortable for his young age is because his pageant parents have been pimping him since birth.

- Archuletta's peeps - jaysus Dad, howzabout you lose the baseball hat. You're on national TV in front of 35 million people for fuck's sake. Stop dressing like you are hanging drywall. Watch 'America's Funniest Home Videos'. That audience is dressed to kill!

- Archuletta - his 'walk to the stool' pissed me off. You'll notice that Castro, Cook, etc just smiled, walked over and took a seat. He did the hi-five slow walk like he just won the Heisman. Man, I had those showbiz kids. The good news is that they RARELY go on to do much of anything - actors maybe, singers nope. Billy Gillman? Tiffany? We can look forward to an E True Hollywood story about how Archuletta is suckin' cock on Sunset for loose change in about 4 years.

- Seacrest - ok, his cocksuckitude came out big time. When Danny gets booted he says 'one of our most COURAGEOUS contestants'. Huh? Only said cuz he's a flamer. What's so fucking courageous about singing faggoty gay cabaret versions of songs? I dont think I used the word 'courageous' to describe ANYTHING related to a karaoke show - except if Paula finally lost her marbles and started cappin' bitches and Danny stepped in front and took a bullet. A's'ai'ah'ahia'ah's daddy died 14 seconds before her audition. That was courageous. She left to go to Hollywood rather than staying with her most like grieving mother - that was courageous (or really stupid). Danny was a dorky gay kid to seemed so obviously uncomfortable in his own skin. Nobody went balls out crying and acting like someone died when Luke was voted off. Get over it. Shit happens.

- The results. I really question them. Was Kristy really memorable? Sure Danny was lame, but after Sanjaya, I thought he was in for sure - just for comical variety.

- The responses. Yeah it sucks to get voted off, but your career just got fastracked in a fucking HUGE way. Sure, none of the 'voted off' will go on to do anything real in the proper music world, but at least it kick starts your opportunities. Instead of playing in a shitty bar band at some place called Rookies or Champs or Shooters on a tuesday night for two drunks and whore, now you've got this on your resume and some exposure. You can go get a gig on a cruise ship, maybe at a disney review, maybe on/off broadway. Sure, it aint the Grammy's, but its a HUGE step up and a great way to fasttrack and avoid the school of hard knocks. I dont feel bad for them at all.
