Last night’s show was officially the strangest, Simon said. With Brooke’s crappy rendition of “I’m a Believer” awfully compounded by Paula’s (who looks specially ridiculous tonight) infamous flub, it could just be. No Diamond last night, but surely one will be in full sail tonight–homebound. Read the rest of this entry »
A video of Paula screwing up the show. She comments on Jason’s performance that has not happened yet and ad libs that it’s for David Cook. But she’s already been exposed. Either the show is rigged, or Paula is nutty. But it could be just as likely as the latter since she called Syesha “Brooke” when giving her opinion on Syesha’s second performance. Oh Paula!
The decision-makers of American Idol must not be kidding: Mariah, Broadway, and now Neil Diamond? We’re not really familiar with Neil Diamond and what he’s famous for, but we can tell that our Final Five is up for a big challenge. Singing two songs each, here is our recap:

FluxThoughts on Mega Manila Auditions (or on Pinoy Idol in general):
I. Stop cramming the auditions into an hour of ludicrous show (also applies to Mindanao, Visayas, and Northern Luzon). It was decent at first, but the style gets old. Show us something new. [For some reason, the Mega Manila audition is arguably the worst among all four, and it's a big letdown]
II. Wyngard may be the best and the worst thing that’s happened to Pinoy Idol. Depending on who takes it, his comments can be blatantly funny or annoyingly absurd. He just needs to refrain from the technicalities since he has no idea what he’s talking about.
III. Same with the past episodes, say something more than “For me, it’s a yes/no.” I didn’t even notice that Jolina wasn’t there since Ida Henares is just as laconic as Jolens is. Plus, the judges are inconsistent with their grounds for choosing who gets a golden ticket.
IV. For crying out loud, can Raymond say something witty? Or just come out of the closet already.
V. The parade of nations is sooooo hilarious: we love Issa-gani, the half-pinoy half-pinay who didn’t make it, and Merci, the half-Filipino and half-Spun(-ish), who didn’t make it either. Read the rest of this entry »
Last night, American Idol converted its stage into a theatrical act which proved that the Top 6 is as vulnerable as Jordin Sparks’ vocal cords. They performed music composed by Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber and only one or two of them, give or take, were worthy of an encore. Tonight’s the dreaded results show and one of them may never find a career in Broadway. Read the rest of this entry »
If Mariah week was grueling, an Andrew Lloyd Webber theme is much more excruciating. Tonight, the Idols cannot get America’s vote by just singing or smiling, but they have to exhibit the spirit of musical theater. The task is to reveal superior personality, as well as to pop-ify musical, all while capturing the essence of Broadway and the story behind the songs.
It’s Andrew Lloyd Webber week and here are the song choices of our Top 6: (courtesy of TMZ)
Syesha Mercado - One Rock & Roll Too Many from Starlight Express
David Cook — Music of the Night from Phantom of the Opera
Carly Smithson — Jesus Christ Superstar
Brooke White — You Must Love Me from the film adaptation of “Evita”
Jason Castro — Memory from Cats
David Archuleta — Think of Me from Phantom of the Opera

Alright guys, this post may be a tad late, but we heart Kady Malloy and Colton since they’re very good friends of Danny Noriega and Ramiele Malubay (the disbanded Click 4) so we’re still posting it. Plus, who doesn’t like a Kady post? Those who say “Me” or “Us” can get a Fluxslap immediately. Kady is American Idol’s Britney Spears without the single motherhood, no-show-up court hearings, and just plainly crazyyy issues. And Colton? Well, Mr. Berry is Macaulay Culkin’s long lost brother and we’d like to stay Home Alone with him. Read the rest of this entry »
