I feel obliged to write about ‘American Idol’
I’m pretty sure I’ve refrained from writing anything about “American Idol” up until this point, mostly because I haven’t watched it in two years. I was too crushed after George Huff’s loss to watch any more. This year’s competition is just getting out of the boring few weeks between the auditions where people with no talent intentionally embarass themselves just to get on TV and the finals, where people with actual talent sing tired love songs.
The first victim of Simon Cowell’s increasingly banal rejection speeches was 21-year-old Melissa McGhee, who forgot the words to the song she was singing on Tuesday night’s competition.
Don’t worry about missing out, because in true Fox fashion, they’re going to stretch this out until May 24. It’s just starting to get good.
