louisville!

well, here we are in louisville. let's hope it's better than san francisco. there's always simon and cara.
...
do they all really need their own limos? uh, don't they know we're in a petrol crisis?

mariah carey songs should not be allowed. ever. i hate when mariah sings them. i can't understand why parents let their children embarrass themselves on national television. "they are looking for nerds and freaks." -tiffany

cara knows this chick, joanna. she was signed to a record label. 'we belong.' she's good. i bet she makes the top 12.

mark? serious backwoods kentucky. he's almost died 5 times! eek! he's the worst. don't mess with mudd ... he's scary. "be careful." paula didn't like it so much.

brent, at the very least has a great name! he's ok. i don't like that type of singing. paula and cara went down together. huh-huh. under the table. cara's smokin' hot dress with the hole to reveal cleavage? american idol has gotten way better this year.

toothbrush company employee? oooohhhh, 'somewhere over the rainbow'

matt has a very justin timberlake quality about him.

ross, i'm not sure you can learn to sing through chinese characters or mathematical equations. i can't wait to hear this...yep. just what i thought it might sound like. paula's face was priceless. he drank out of paula's straw. i guess we now know it's not vodka in there. was he a plant? thoughts.

another singing stay at home mom. they are hidden all over the burbs. whoa...i never would have thought that voice would have come out of that.

yikes, aaron, that took paula right out of her chair. hilarious! he's so cute, however. he's going to bring joy to some job somewhere.

rebecca, open your eyes, check your arm and see that the judges are giggling. yet another mother with kid muffs over their ears.

for tonight's sob story ... poverty. yeah, it sucks, i agree. but i have to say leneshe is lovely and sweet. let's hear it though. her own song - not bad. ok. i bought this sob story. i love her. she may make the top too.

19 to hollywood. god, let the hollywood round start soon. next week, jacksonville florida.

simonisms...

• tiffany? what song was that?
• that's not a gun, is it?
• for me it was a bit buster-ish
• is it me or is this show getting weirder this year
• that was so boring
• say goodbye
• i think you should do something in your life that involves shouting
• stop. quit singing.
