“Pumped Up Kicks” playing in the background. Cute little song until you read the horrifying lyrics.

[ChicagoConservative27]

Suck fest part II coming up. I’m ready for weeping.

[Shelayne]

Heejun is annoying me—even during the commercials. His appearances may have me invoking the JERKY PANDA!

[retrokitten]

I wasn’t looking at the screen and thought a girl was talking. It was Webster! WTH? That was ....odd.

[ChicagoConservative27]

This is not too bad.

[twin2]

That diva wannabe is getting on my nerves. What a ‘tude.

[ChicagoConservative27]

He’s a another Geraldine.

[retrokitten]

[Netizen]

That wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it might be.

[silent_jonny]

I know--the wig and cataract glasses (LOL) made her look a lot older than she is.

[Shelayne]

She was on a sitcom, I think, but I cannot place it. Wait a minute—was it SOAP??

[Lil'freeper]

[retrokitten]

Yeah, they were really good. It was the perfect song for Webster. He sounds like young Michael Jackson.

[stylecouncilor]

[silent_jonny]

The theme is Songs From the 50s.

Second group performs "Rockin' Robin" and all 4 survive.

[Lil'freeper]

White Chocolate invoking The Goose!

[MagUSNRET]

That anorexic chick in the glasses....is scaring me, and Im fearless!

[retrokitten]

She looks gorgeous there.

[Mark was here]

oNE IS REALLY SCARRY LOOKING ...

[RummyChick]

The one dude is David Gokey with a kid but it seems all he can do is sing in one voice..sort of a growl

[silent_jonny]

Looks like Blankenship Jr. is on stage.

[ChicagoConservative27]

I see we have Geraldine part II

[twin2]

That Angie girl is a bit quirky to keep getting through.

Aw geez we are stuck with her for another round.

[silent_jonny]

Blankenship Jr. made it? She was terrible.

[retrokitten]

Why is that Angie girl even there??? She’s like a horrible novelty act.

OMG. She’s this year’s Norman Gentle!!

[retrokitten]

LMAO!!

[Lil'freeper]

I don’t compute how all that glitter works around the eyes. Seems like it would get in the eye and OUCH!

[Netizen]

uh oh (cue the pipe organs) a shocking twist at the end of the day

[MagUSNRET]

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What is TRULY scary, most of us know IMMEDIATELY who is being refered to, from past seasons, when a name (or nickname) is spoken

[EmilyGeiger]

Was mean coach telling cowboy he doesn’t listen??? Hello all!!

[twin2]

I agree.

Wish me luck, I have to call my mom on the commercial. She is having a medical procedure tomorrow and I can't avoid it. I hope I don't get stuck forever....

[RummyChick]

Heejun falling onto the ground is a editor fake out.

I predict he makes it into the top 12 or is it 10 this time..

he won’t win but he will be a finalist.

His cowboy buddy- going home.

[silent_jonny]

LOL—Seacrest helps by applauding.

[retrokitten]

Hi EG!

[MagUSNRET]

IM already loving the “Save the Drama for your Mama” vocal clach! Bout time some of these diva’s had a taste of “reality”

[RummyChick]

One of my favorite nicknames was Clunt from last year.

[retrokitten]

Good luck and a speedy recovery to Twin2’s momma!

[MagUSNRET]

clach=COACH for those of you that can actually type ;-)

[silent_jonny]

Hi, Mags! :)

[MagUSNRET]

I was partial to “Little Orphan Tranny” and of course................”The Mole”

[Netizen]

I think we are looking for top 40 and that to be whittled down to top 24

[EmilyGeiger]

I had forgotten about Gentle.....remember when he crawled on the floor toward Simon. Simon’s expression was hilarious!!

[silent_jonny]

LOL!

How you doin'? ;)

[Tunehead54]

Hi, my name’s Charlie and I’m an Idol fan - reference bump for the porch PC - wading through all the crap and humiliation of goofs that think they can sing - a few extraordinary performances are to be found. Just say’n ... ;-)

[ChicagoConservative27]

I miss meth mouth.

[Lil'freeper]

The Puppini Sisters these three are NOT

[RummyChick]

Oh,then Heenjun will end up being in the Top 24. So will that black music teacher. Marcus something or other.

[silent_jonny]

Howdy J!

It's the Andrews Sisters.

[silent_jonny]

Hi, Net :)

[MagUSNRET]

Patty Luverne and Maxine!
