American Idol Live Tour 2008 – HQ pic!

Finally a high-quality copy of this year’s promo picture! Beautiful!

Goodbye “Michelle” or “Jolene”?

Both have revealed their vulnerability by singing a song with a name as its title, both are singer/songwriter/acoustic-style performers, and both were not pretty good in the latest AI7 Performance Night.

Is it Ramiele’s rumored “love team,” Jason Castro, who sang “Memory” from Cats or is it Ramiele’s Mama Brooke who sang “You Must Love Me” from Evita?

For Jason: Randy said it was vocally like a trainwreck. Paula, on the other hand, said she likes the idea of a guy singing the song. Simon, meanwhile, felt like Jason was forced to sing the song.

Mama Brooke again messed up at the beginning, and the comments were not as flattering as before: Randy said it wasn’t vocally great but it has full of emotion. Paula advised her to “never start and stop,” though she acknowledged her emotions. Simon, however, said that he thought it’s going to be a tricky one and thought that she will be very disappointed after re-viewing her performance.

The whole Brooke time was actually overly dramatic!

It may be one of them or not but their fanbase will definitely be challenged with this one. If it’s not one of them, then it may be Syesha Mercado’s final night.

But enough already with the emotional rampage! As a treat, here’s free MP3 downloads of two of the most cheesy performances ever this season :

Michelle (Studio Version) – Jason Castro

Jolene (Studio Version) – Brooke White

Top 7 Girls botched up without Ramiele on Mariah Carey week!

What a shame! In a week that the girls should actually be in their element, it’s the boys who shined all through out!

The night’s biggest disappointment was Carly Smithson! She has just proven that she cannot top Mariah or even Kelly! It’s been anticipated that it’ll be her best performance so far with the song that Simon Cowell advised, “Without You.” However, she’s as usual very stiff and most of the times off key. I think it may be the end for her. The “Blackbird” may be out of the competition by tomorrow.

Ramiele’s Mama Brooke was also off key at some parts but overall it was just OK.

Ramiele’s roommates Syesha and Kristy, on the other hand, chose very effacing songs. The surprise was that Kristy was actually better than Syesha! LOL!

So now Nigel, are you satisfied?

I actually thought bringing these girls up to this point is to highlight Mariah Carey week because Nigel thought they can tackle Mariah when in fact they can’t!

And who should be the choice to do Mariah? It’s Ramiele! Why? Because she has sang “Against All Odds” beautifully while on Top 16 and her version was NOT Mariah-wannabe and yet it’s perfect!

Last I check ramieleofficial.com, I noticed that upon hearing her “Against All Odds” again and again, I can’t help but be consumed by her beautiful rendition especially the end! It’s now my favorite song of Ramiele!

So wanna hear her sing Mariah? She just did!
