Just admit it, you STILL watch American Idol and you even VOTE for your favs.

My mom was all "hay look dat 1 of ur ppl, moed!"

OWNED.
See, that is why you only keep the pillows if you have a mum who also has one and can troll DA and Myspaces.

I do mean the sum of the finalists who will get through audition and within the first of 25 peoples.
I am betting only 6 can actually sing this year. and I just might be right.
Here however, we have a drinking game based on the popularity of idols night.
everytime someone makes a fool out of themselves on stage or offstage drama, we drink.
and that is a lot of beers mind you.
(almost better than playing guitar hero while being drunk)

I only watch the audition rounds just to see hopes and dreams crushed but I hadn't in the past few years.
Apparently, I am missing out on many many things.
Jam-Kiske:
I watched like the second season, but beyond that have seen nothing more.
I care not to.
As a singer, I think it's silly that such a shortcut exists. Plus, if anyone actually good comes from the show I'll hear their music later on.
♛ Apher-Forte:
you are a singer?
wow, then, well, good for you then. But I don't agree with your stand point, this is merely a way to superstardom, most people even you with your great vocals no doubt that I believe you do, will never reach that status.
Everyone wants to be a star, if this show can grant 15 minutes of fame and give rise to one, why not?
I don't believe producers and star finders actively go to every bar in the corner of a sleepy town to seek out a great singer, so why not attract them to a single spot and put them to a test, while making money?
there is no actual shortcut, just another way.
or to the unlucky band, a lifetime spent waiting in line to perform a song at a concert that nobody cares about or worse still, dad's garage or mom's basement/
Ghaleon:
I only like watching the first episode or two in a season in hopes of seeing people like William Hung. I have little love for real vocals (why all my fave Touhou remixes are non-vocal I guess), so there's really little incentive for me to watch more.
It's funny though because I have a cousin who is god-awful at singing, and yet he somehow makes a career out of it. And he actually thinks he's good. He's a really nice guy though, so you can't turn him down when he invites you to one of his performances.
Seriously though, I have no idea how he actually makes a career out of it, my family is NOT the only one who thinks he's awful. It's like he's completely tone deaf, everyone's always laughing as they walk past and hear him.
