Idol's Top 8 Girls: 50% Better than Last Time!

So last week there were 2 good performances by our Idol ladies and this week there were...wait for it...3! If they continue with this pattern then next week we will get 4.5 good performances which can only mean that Ramiele will get in on this because she is 1/2 the size of a normal person (seriously did you see her standing next to kristy lee? It was frightening).

Speaking of Ramiele, she further proved her bff-ness with Danny Noriega. They share glasses! You may have seen my post about Danny last night. I am in love with him. Maybe it's some kind of gay solidarity thing, ok it's totally that, but I don't care. America needs a little Danny Noriega. With that said I think he'll be headed home tomorrow night with Luke Menard. Le sad.

Onto the ladies! Tonight I will be giving my general observations and then I will rate their chances of making the final 12: either Totes (they will totally make it), Mabes (they might make it), or Kady Malloy (see: Kady Malloy).

The H started out tonight and she was OK but she needs to stop picking insanely hard songs that have been done by extremely talented singers. Whitney Houston? Seriously?? If The H continues on this trajectory she will surely be performing the Habanera by the time we get to the top 10. Which would be fine by me as long as she reverts to her old singing style and performs the 'Abanera. Top 12 verdict: Mabes

Kady Malloy's most embarrassing moment was when she butchered the song "Beautiful" in a 9th grade talent show. I was going to say something nice about Kady since the judges always rip on her, but the fact that she sang "Beautiful" when she was in 9th grade makes me feel so old that all I can say is: Top 12 verdict: Kady Malloy

Next up is Amanda Overmyer and she gives the first good performance of the night (only 2 more left!). I can't say if I'm happy that she toned down the Bride of Frankenstein hair, the spastic dancing, and the tuneless singing because I was loving that beautiful train wreck thing she had going on. Anyway, Amanda is sooooooooooo over this show. She seriously could give two shits about what the judges have to say and you know what? More power too her. Top 12 verdict: Totes

I'm not quite sure why the Idol producers put 2 good performances in a row when they only had 3 to give but whatevs. Carly Smithson sings fairly well and if I were her I would be pumped because all I have to do is sing passably and I'm automatically the baddest bitch in the competition. Carly also looks, at least in my opinion, exponentially prettier every week. Top 12 Verdict: Totes

When Kristy Lee Cook was 7 she thought she was a dog. She didn't just act like a dog, or dress up like a dog, she actually believed she was a dog. FOR A WHOLE YEAER! How indulgent were her parents?!?! If I had a child who actually thought they were a dog, that shit would get about a two week window of allowance before I had to inform the little psychopath that they were indeed human and needed to stop humping the mailman's leg this instant! Also, her singing was boring. Top 12 Verdict: Kady Malloy

Ramielle Mulabay is up next and man is her song boring. Paula tries to liven up the festivities by babbling incoherently about mutts and Danny Noriega does liven up the festivities by wearing Ramielle's glasses and being fabulous. Top 12 Verdict: Mabes

Brooke White performs next and gives my favorite performance of the night. I don't know If I'm alone in my thinking, but it was actually my favorite female performance of this entire season. I loved what she did with the song, it was smart and classy. Randy and Paula tell Brooke that she should have used the band, but NOT using the band was exactly why the song was so great. I might even go download this on iTunes. Top 12 Verdict: Totes

We finish off the show with Syesha Mercado because...the judges love her? I honestly have no idea why she gets to go last. Syesha has gone back to banshee wailing so at least she's singing in tune. I really don't like her. Top 12 Verdict: Mabes

So who do I think is going home? I'm going to go with Kady Malloy and Kristy Lee Cook. Goodbye ladies!
