I'd like to bang Headache Girl's "Pimp Spot".

I agree I think Cook just made the best of what he had to work with and it turned out really well. |

He could have just sang it straight through, he and Penis With Ears are in totally different leagues, but one of the things I hated about PWE was that unlike most of the other contestants, he had to freakin' turn everything grunge/rock and find some way to weasel around the theme. Which is fine, because it gave his fans what they wanted, but I don't think Cook was "limited" this week at all. |

I think every American Idol contestant should do real "covers" - that is, a genuinely different take on a song. If everyone did that, the show
wouldn't seem so much like a dumb kareoke contest.

Like most "democratic" governments, AI doesn't actually trust the masses to make the "right" decision. They know the tweentards will love them (because pollution and transgenic crops have mutated this generation's brains). But they also have to try to convince their parents that he's worth the hundreds of calls their little turd children make. Exactly, they have to make sure the couch potatoes out in tv land do exactly what Nigel wants them to do. |

I think it's quite obvious why they are pimping Cook, because they don't want it to be completely obvious that Archuleta will win..
very simple. |

They could have avoided all this by not putting threats to their Chosen One in the Top 24.

The woman with the headache sums it all up. We have the chosen one, the DECOY for the chosen one, the person who LOOKS like they're being pimped but is
then set up to fail, etc. etc. All conveniently spelled out by self proclaimed experts. Ramdomness, weird voter choices, trainwrecks, great performances, or
people simply doing better or worse overall than anybody expected never seem to fit into any of these oh-so-carefully worked out scenarios. People need to give
it a rest. The show IS carefully planned of course but those plans often go wrong, which is where the fun lies. For every Nigel approved Reuben/Clay finale or
2 David scenarios, there have been a whole bunch of Marios, Tamyras and Latoyas that didn't happen. And the two Davids finale hasn't happened yet
either.
Incidentally, the shockingly undemocratic idea that they don't trust us to pick the right person so they have the judges tell us who to vote for is not hidden. It is the way the show openly operates. |

Of course, what makes their plot even more devious is how the judges tell us to vote, and not vote, for different people every week.

For me it doesn't matter who gets pimped right now - either way it goes the winner will suck donkey balls and will have to sing craptastic songs. I hate
everyone who's left.

This is season is quite funny.
With so many of the pre-pimped ones (hernandez, amanda, asiah, ramielle, michael, carly, archuleta), only 1 in the final 5 |

The BLATANT pimping of Devil Child is embarrassing to watch.
The watching of Devil Child is vomit inducing. The worship of Devil Child makes one think of homicide. The listening to Devil Child prompts thoughts of suicide. And yet, the little gasping boring ugly useless midget will win. STOP THE SHAMEFUL PIMPING!!! |

Why the fuck is evil little gremlin fuck getting his balls licked as much as he has? I'm sorry but it defies explanation.

Daddy Porkchop must have a lot of dough. He dreams his kid's gonna hit the big time but the brat's got no talent, no looks, no height, no masculinity.
So what's the old man gonna do? Maybe he's got some dirt on the higher ups at AI.
He uses his money to bribe American Idol and judges (and I use that word lightly) to pimp his spawn and make him a household name. Otherwise the kid ain't got a chance in hell of becoming a star on his own. The little Harvey appearred on Star Search. He did well on the show and nobody ever heard of him again until AI. Money makes the world go round. Apparently it also makes worthless no talents famous.

Hilarious. Pre-bump, all of the other 3 have had the pimp spot. Yet, no one complained. Hypocrite whiners.
