American Idol: Anoop Desai & Lil Rounds Finally Extinguished

August 5th, 2012 By Stuart Heritage

Well well, maybe that American Idol Judge’s Save gimmick wasn’t as hopelessly poo-headed as we all thought.

Just look at Matt Giraud. Everyone figured that, after his save last week, he’d be kicked off American Idol last night. But no. Instead Matt Giraud remains on American Idol, while Lil Rounds and Anoop Desai got booted.

So does this mean that Matt Giraud will win American Idol? No, it means that he’s slightly better at singing than Anoop Desai and Lil Rounds. But we know rape alarms that are better at singing than Lil Rounds and Anoop Desai, so whoopty bloody doo.

American Idol Goes Disco, Because It Hates You

August 5th, 2012 By Stuart Heritage

Ah, American Idol Disco Night – a tradition right up there with visiting elderly relatives and hereditary bowel disease.

Honestly, why? Whose idea is it to keep bringing Disco Night back to American Idol? If it isn’t someone who has a financial interest in those cross-channel ferries than run a nightclub service to Calais every month with music by a middle-aged local radio DJ then we’ll be surprised. American Idol Disco Night is terrible.

So what happened on last night’s American Idol? Some people with funny haircuts sang some uninteresting disco songs in a mediocre way. Don’t you watch American Idol?

American Idol: Quentin Tarantino? Guh?

August 5th, 2012 By Stuart Heritage

Last night American Idol sang songs from the movies – specifically the movies with dreadful power ballads in them.

Honestly American Idol, Songs From The Movies? Be more broad next time, we dare you. Why not have a Songs That Exist night? Or, if you feel that’s too constricting for your audience, why not have an Arbitrarily-Chosen Ambient Sounds night? Would you watch Lil Rounds give a heartbreaking performance of Dot Matrix Printer Paper Jam? Because we bloody would.

Anyway, because last night’s American Idol was about films, the show booked Quentin Tarantino to be the guest mentor. Which was weird.
