Quick 'Idol' Recap from Diana Ross Night ...

By bumpshack ā€¢

I am just now catching up on American Idol from last night. The show I found to be rather blah and quite boring. The highlight of the show was Simon ripping Ryan about his sexuality and telling him to ā€˜come outā€™ of the closet. Every contestant had to sing a Diana Ross song. Ross mentored them in practice as they murdered her songs.

Here is a quick run down of how all twelve contestants did last night. **LaKisha **and **Doolittle **continued to be light years ahead of the other ten. For a more detailed breakdown check out MK’s analysis at Popbytes.

Melinda Doolittle- A+ - DooDoo continued to shine as she sang ā€˜Homeā€™. She is my personal favorite.

LaKisha Jones- A - She sang ā€˜God Bless the Childā€™ which was a bit of a weird selection for her powerful voice but she did an amazing version of the song.

Stephanie Edwards- B- - Stephie has a lot of potential. She didnā€™t totally max it out last night but she had a very decent performance. She sang ā€˜Love Hangoverā€™.

Haley Scarnato- B+ - I have been very hard on Haley and she has been horrible up until this point. But unlike Randy and Paula I agreed with Simon. She made a world of improvement and could surprise in the next round. It helped out that she had to use a song outside of her Disney play book. She sang ā€˜Missing Youā€™.

Gina Glocksen- C- - The tongue ring will turn off a wide range of votersā€¦.you know what Chris Rock says about that, right? Gina was not horrible, she was not bad. I think she would be less distracting if she got rid of that red skunk tail. She sang ā€˜Love Childā€™

Jordin Sparks- A+ - Air J sang ā€˜If We Hold On Togetherā€™ and showed that she is at least the thirst best singer in this competition behind KiKi and DooDoo.

Blake Lewis- D - I think his future will be as a record producer. Blakeā€™s rearrangement and version of ā€˜You Keep Me Hanging Onā€™ I thought was mixed well and had a good beat. However, his vocals more than sucked and ruined the performance.

Chris Richardson- B - Timberwannabe is probably my favorite among the men. He also had the best male performance of the night singing ā€˜The Bossā€™, but that doesnā€™t say too much. He has charisma, talent, good looks and will land a record deal regardless of how he fares on Idol.

Sanjaya Malakar- Fā€”ā€”ā€” - JaJa thought it was style your hair like Diana Ross instead of sing a Ross song as well as you can. He shouldnā€™t be here and it is becoming very embarrassing for him. But the thought of Sundance Head singing a Diana Ross makes Malakar a bit easier to stomach. He sang ā€˜Ainā€™t No Mountain High Enoughā€™.

Phil Stacey- F - Goofier than an albino squirrel. He has gotten cockier and cheesier each week and that is simply a DEADLY combination. He sang ā€˜Iā€™m Gonna Make You Love Meā€™.

Brandon Rogers- D- - His voice is not that good, albeit I would kill for it, and his dancing isnā€™t much better. He forgot the words and was visibily nervous. He sang the The Supremes hit ā€˜You Canā€™t Hurry Loveā€™.

Chris Sligh- C - He lost the glasses and a bit of his magic as well. He tried to rework her song when he should have just sang it with that talented voice of his. He sang ā€˜Endless Loveā€™.
