Greetings from Idol Headquarters! We were thrilled to dust things off and prepare for Season 9. We’ve aired out HQ, turned on our computers and fed the go-go dancers. It’s going to be a great season! See below for a look at the passion and excitement that surrounds us here at Idol HQ.
Before we get into this week’s lineup, let’s address some pressing news in the world of Idol. We’ve already had a dramatic start with the most unidolesque contestant in Idol history – Crystal Bowersox. Crystal was hospitalized for complications due to diabetes or “her beetus” as she refers to it, but was able to stay in the competition. After persevering and making it through to the Top 12, you would think she would have been able to crack a smile. In the end it seemed like she was on to the fact that Lilly wasn’t making it through. We can understand that she might have lost a friend in Lilly – I mean, we can’t really picture her giggling in her jammies with Katie Stevens, or comparing hard times on the street with Aaron Kelly. But, she could have shown some excitement since she is one of the favorites to win. We hope she lightens up to her moderately cheerless self because we are looking forward to what she will bring this season –except in the group numbers where she looks so out of place it’s like watching Donny Osmond on stage with Kiss, or Jason Castro perform “Memory.”
In other Idol news let’s turn to the super tense, totally real feud between Ellen and Simon….let’s not.
Finally, there has been some controversy over Alex Lambert’s elimination last week. Even Demi Moore has gotten involved with a petition to bring him back. Insert cougar joke here.
Now on to this week’s show. The Top 12 will tackle Rolling Stones songs. We should be prepared for some amazing interpretations along with some toe-curling disasters. If Mick Jagger is a guest mentor this week, we wonder if they will show the tape of him deflowering Katie Stevens and doing mushrooms with Siobhan…
Here are our predictions:
Didi Benami – Angie
Siobhan Magnus – Paint it Black
Paige Miles - Wild Horses
Casey James – She’s a Rainbow
Tim Urban – Beast of Burden
Lee Dewyze – Lady Jane
Crystal Bowersox – Mother’s Little Helper
Michael Lynche – Sympathy for the Devil
Lacey Brown – Ruby Tuesday
Aaron Kelly – Honkey Tonk Women
Andrew Garcia – (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction
Katie Stevens - You Can’t Always Get What You Want
Happy viewing!

Idol Pool Members...we have BIG NEWS!! Caroline and I will be in Hollywood at the Kodak Theater watching Idol LIVE on Wednesday, April 7. We promise to bring a huge sign to honor our Idol Pool Master and to send pictures!! We can't wait.
I don't know who's idea it was to start Siobhan's version of Paint It Black in 3/4, but I really really liked it - right from the get go.
I thought Crystal was by far the best of the night. Also, Lee looks like Cooper from Private Practice. There, I said it.
I was thinking Siobhan was reminding us all of Adam before Kara mentioned that last night. I'm not sure i like that fact, though i do like her a lot. No one needs another season of screeching.
I get the sense that Crystal is refusing her appointed stylist's suggestions and just wearing her own(tired)clothing. I want her in a strapless dress next week and maybe a good hair washing to boot?
Just an idea.
Team Brooklyn - who are you - I agree! But, did she get her teeth whitened? They looked a little bit better - but overall this is the WORST I have seen her look all season and this was make over week!
Team Brooklyn = Darby and Dave, unless someone else signs in as us : )
Darby, Dave and Amy,
Team Rochester agrees! Amy, she didn't just get whitening - I think they gave her caps.
