American Idol - The Final Three May 13th

Its a strange night on American Idol when Paula Abdul seems to be the only judge that knows what's going on. She was bright eyed, alert and coherent and didn't talk in jerky partial sentences, as she normally does. She had it together until about the last three minutes of the show, when the Coca Cola must have kicked in and the wackiness reappeared.

I don't know what was wrong with Simon and Randy. Perhaps it was just that it was another boring night on American Idol, with no particular stand out performances, at a time when the "Wow Factor" should be fully present.

The contestants were good, if I had to choose one performance as a stand out, it would be David Cook's version of The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.

And then there's the Chihuahuas again. Simon brought them up this time, by saying that one of the performances was like a Chihuahua trying to be a tiger.

Then there was a song about a "Boo" and a song about penguins and the hour seemed more like three hours. Tomorrow night is results night and maybe David Cook will eliminated, just for shock value.

She did do well and looked as though she was well rested. I sometimes think she's just exhausted and that's part of the reason for her strange behavior.... but I don't think it would be good for her American Idol career for her to be "normal" all the time!
