The All-Important AI!
-
Nope, we're not talking about Artificial Intelligence here but...
... AMERICAN IDOL!!
Since a few of us keep talking about the AI in the Jive Pad, I thought we should open a separate thread so more peeps who are interested in this topic can join in the discussion every week!
So, come in, folks... and let's quarrel over who deserves to be the next AI! -
av, with your McPhee-ver, where are you?
And yes, as I was saying, if McPhee could sing, but had the body of Mandisa, would you still have that McPhee-ver!
So, as some of us were suggesting, it's not always about the talent!
-
McPhee for me too
She gets better every week
Plus she has the looks and the body too

Probably not. Its all about the total package. talents, looks, star quality. Ask any record producer. Its not just about the talent. Look at the pop stars on the market today!
Not that I have anything against fat black women singers mind you. I've got a whole stack of Ella Fitzgerald CDs! And another set of her duets with Louise Armstrong!
McPhee! McPhee! McPhee! V V -
McPhee, sigh. Bet you Clive Davis is already scheming to get his hands on cutting her first album.

And I am already standing by to buy it.Originally posted by jetta:McPhee, sigh. Bet you Clive Davis is already scheming to get his hands on cutting her first album. -
Yah you're right. Mandisa is just too, well, big JMHO. Yes she has a good set of pipes but her thighs hurt my eyes leh.Originally posted by av98m:Probably not.

I felt this way about Clay too. Gay or not, I like his voice.Originally posted by av98m:And I am already standing by to buy it.
Too bad Streamie's 2 hours ahead of us. She'd have plenty to say here. -
She's big, yeah... and if she wears the wrong clothes, she can give some of us cardiac arrests!Originally posted by jetta:Yah you're right. Mandisa is just too, well, big JMHO. Yes she has a good set of pipes but her thighs hurt my eyes leh.
But, well, she can sing! I will buy her album if she releases one, and make that a jazz one, please! -
Hopefully, she selects good songs to sing on her album.Originally posted by av98m:And I am already standing by to buy it.
I hesitated from buying the albums of Kelly Clarkson and Clay Aiken cause not all the songs in the album was nice. I did buy the single for Fantasia's song, I Believe, though. -
I think Ace looks dashing, but he's not been performing well. He'll be more of the Ou3 Xiang4 Pai4!

yeah, if she releases a country album i'm not touching it!!!Originally posted by Rhonda:Hopefully, she selects good songs to sing on her album.

You did? Nice? I'm such a Clay fan, have all his albums.Originally posted by Rhonda:Hopefully, she selects good songs to sing on her album.

Now waiting for McPhee to put one together. Kelly Clarkson has forgotten her AI roots. I'll listen to her over the radio but won't put one cent towards her bank account. -
You said it!Originally posted by av98m:yeah, if she releases a country album i'm not touching it!!! -

Well, Alison Krauss sings country! -
Personal problem.Originally posted by Rhonda:

What do you mean about that Kelly Clakson comment? Sorry, don't understand it.Originally posted by jetta:You did? Nice? I'm such a Clay fan, have all his albums.

She was the first AI crowned. Since her album got big, she acts like she's forgotten how she got up there.Originally posted by Rhonda:What do you mean about that Kelly Clakson comment? Sorry, don't understand it. -
Yeah...for some reason she and her band are all the country I can listen to. And her style is actually not purely country, more rojak, I should say. And she has such a beautiful voice.Originally posted by Rhonda:

But I think she's had cosmetic work done over the years. I look at the cover of my first alison krauss album many years ago, compared to now, she looks completely different!!
She used to look really dumpy.And in fact looked older. But now she's hot! -
Izzit? Like how?Originally posted by jetta:She was the first AI crowned. Since her album got big, she acts like she's forgotten how she got up there. -
I love her voice too! I love two of her songs very very much!Originally posted by av98m:Yeah...for some reason she and her band are all the country I can listen to. And her style is actually not purely country, more rojak, I should say. And she has such a beautiful voice.

Well, she has to look hot mah! Or else how to keep fans like you? -
During the auditions, it was mentioned that Kelly didn't give permission for her songs to be used. Then when she got her Grammy, she never made one mention of AI. She did say she thanked her fans and that was her indirect thanks towards AI.Originally posted by Rhonda:Izzit? Like how? -
Before:
The "auntie lookl"
1990s:

Hot blonde!

Amazing what a good hairstyle can do.
Did you guys read the GE babes in a recent issue of New Paper?
Lily Neo with a new do, looking young and hot man, who knew she had it in her? Rawwrr! -
Wah! The transformation is quite drastic!
