Top 11: Miley mentor week

Top 11

This weeks theme is “Number 1 singles”. The Idols can pick any song that reached the top of any of the Billboard Charts. Wisdom would have had this week’s mentor be someone who had the most number ones, a lot, a current number one, how about former Idols that have top the charts? (over 200 #1s).

This week’s celebrity mentor – Miley Cyrus. I would like to just take a moment to voice my displeasure at this pick. Once again, the producers are not tailoring this show to me or my demographic. BY THE WAY – Miley “Montana” has NEVER had a top charting single. ….Aint that nuting’ she is only here for ratings..wonder if it worked.

Lee (The Letter ) – I have been told by several folks to give Lee a chance. I admit I missed a few weeks and “may” have overlooked a great performance – this week wasn’t it. I guess it was okay. I am getting the “Elliot Yamin vibe underdawg thing” happening. I am not ready to praise Lee ..just yet but the door “may” be opening.

Paige (Against all odds) – Note, when the focus is on fashion- it may be time to go. I had to watch this performance twice because the first time I muted after the two seconds (Heck no) What happened Paige? She sounded better last week battling illness. This may be her last appearance.

Tim (Crazy little thing called love) – He ain’t ready, but I give him a 10 for the knee slide across the stage. His bangs are going to get him through the next few weeks. Didn’t understand the judges comment about acting like he made it – Tim got points for interacting with the screaming gaggle of gals that will garner a few extra phone calls. A for the slide, D for the performance.

Aaron (Don’t wanna miss a thing) – I personally find this kid annoying- so of course he is going to make top 3. He was chosen ONLY for the teeney boppers and THAT is annoying.

Spotlight and Download : Crystal (Me and Bobby Mcgee) – Miley giving this Idol front runner tips was a joke. Extra points for the magic carpet. I usually ignore the judges – but with Ellen and Kara telling her to add more to her performance and Simon saying “Don’t change a thing”..dare I agree with Simon? Crystal is the American Idol.

Big Mike (When a man love a woman) - Mike, EVERYBODY don’t wanna be picked up man! It was good – not the best performance of the night. I can’t wait to hear the full version.

Andrew (Heard it through the grapevine) - (sigh)..My Hollywood St8-up performance was an accident. I blame Miley. Miley said she made Andy lose the props. They are going to need some props to hide behind when pops goes “buck wild” when he goes home. Terrible terrible terrible! Did I say it was terrible?

Katie (Big girls don’t cry) – Last week she channeled McPhee, this week was like the girl from Glee. It was okay, I now know the words to that song. Not bad.

Casey (Power of love) – That would have to be his best performance to date. I can see it, not my favorite but he has earned his place in the top percentile.

Didi (You’re no good) – I forgot all about this finalist. She is wholesome. I am getting an early Carrie Underwood…(and we know what happened to her.) I am going to pay her alittle bit more attention. DiDi may be my underdog pick..and I love the confident to speak up for herself. I may have to add her to my top 5…just because.

Siobhan (Superstition) – “Lil”she Adam (with her nose ring) I like her – she is the rocker of this season. Final 2.
