Kris Allen the Season's Dark Horse

Though gained many unfavorable responses from the American Idol Fans (even from my husband he's a big Adam fan you know and I can still remember his sigh remarks after Adam lose) kudos to Kris Allen on keeping his feet on the ground and maintaining his charisma after all this. Anyways we can't do anything about it he's "The Dark Horse" now. Aside from "Ain't No Sunshine" I also love this one "Falling Slowly" .

Adam and Kris for the Finals on American Idol Season 8

Adam Lambert and Kris Allen remains in-tact for the Top 2 on American Idols Season 8. Danny Gokey who has never been to the bottom three was voted off and gained the lowest of the 88 million votes.

Randy Jackson and Kara DioGuardi chose One Republic’s "Apologize" for Kris Allen, but seemed not to gain favor for the judges. The "Season's Dark Horse" as the judges call him bounced back with his very good interpretation of "Heartless" by Kanye West as his own choice, for which he accompanied himself on the guitar. Judge Randy Jackson even declared that Allen’s performance was "better than the original" and Simon Cowell said it made him into a contender.

Adam Lambert on his trademark rock performance made his own choice of "Crying" by Aerosmith and Simon's choice of "One" by U2. Simon said he deserved America’s votes because he showed real talent.

Danny Gokey was given "Dance Little Sister" by Terence Trent D'Arby from Paula Abdul. The judges thought the song choice was good for him but weren’t that impressed with the performance especially with his dancing which Kara said is a little "desperate". He also bounced back with his personal choice – Joe Croker's "You are So Beautiful". Simon called it a "vocal master class".

Kris Allen was the first to be called safe maybe due to his performance of "Heartless" that saved him. Second to be called is Adam Lambert who is also a bit nervous not making it to the finals. Danny was eliminated.

Fringe Season 1 Finale

Questions will be answered in the climactic all-new first season finale of "Fringe" as the elusive William Bell (guest star Leonard Nimoy of Star Trek) is finally introduced in the "There's More Than One of Everything" episode of FRINGE airing Tuesday, May 12 (9:04-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

When asked about how the second season of Fringe would differ from the first, Abrams ( Fringe co-creator) said, “The first year is about learning there is an enemy ... I would argue Season 2 is about getting to know the enemy ... Season 1 is building to a very specific type of confrontation ... there will be a really interesting shift in the fundamental paradigm of the show in a very cool way.”

Anoop No for the Top 5

Anoop says on Idol he's disappointed on not making it. My heart goes for him as well, a bit disappointed too because he's one of my favorite on the American Idols.

I'm right on my hunches last week that based from what the judges say I know who would be eliminated today. There's voting but still the judges dominates and guides the audience on the voting scheme. Last week when Simon commented if there's going to be one worth saving on the bottom three ( Lil, Matt, and Anoop) he said there is one. And it's obvious they want Matt on the Top 5 list when they saved him. Matt is also a good singer but that was his worst performance when he tries so hard to sing "Have You Ever Loved A Woman" he really ruined the song belting it out on that higher keys.

Anoop Desai on the wildcard round

Yey! I'm almost low in spirits thought he wouldn't be given a chance. From the 1st call to the picks on the wildcard round I'm anticipating...then came the 7th call he's still not in. But then the last to be called ... Anoop Desai. And looking at him on TV seems he wasn't expecting it , little bit shocked and overwhelmed. He's really one of my picks ... go Anoop and make it to the American Idols wildcard. Maybe next time a really good song choice would matter a lot.

Despite the not so good pictures of him spreading on the web what I like is when he performs and his very sharp-edged vocals. He reminds me of Steven Tyler lead singer of Aerosmith.

This girl can really rock. Only sixteen years old but can truly perform good on stage. A junior high and the youngest on the pack. She started singing at age 5 and won a Spanish-language TV singing contest "Quinceanera," a Telemundo reality show.

I like his Soul/R&B style songs however his performance on the 1st eliminatuion didn't gain much votes from the audience and judges.Based from his performance on the 1st elimination , Simon says his chosen song "Angel of Mine" doesn't fit his age. Still hoping he can have another chance and be picked on the wildcard.

American Idol Season 8 - Katrina Darrell

This woman's guts really shook up the judges on the opening of American Idols Season 8 in Phoenix, Arizona. Its not just for her bikini clad audition but the way she snapped "Your demonstration wasn't any better" to the new judge Kara Diogardi when she demonstrated how Katrina should have suppose to sing "Visions of Love" with a swing. Wahaa!! really made me laugh. Battle of the genders.
