Sorry, failed again Jonny...

[retrokitten]

I can’t see it either.

[MagUSNRET]

Haley is making some strange noises.....VERY strange....

[tina07]

this one sucks...

[stylecouncilor]

I'm seeing a question mark, but I was able to open it in another window.

Good lord, this girl stinks!

[peggybac]

OMG this girl SUCKS!

[Raebie]

Do not like Xena Warrior Princess.

[freedumb2003]

Annie Lennox is on the “do not try” list with Tina Turner and Aretha Franklin (IMHO)...

[Shelayne]

The Red X of death. LOL.

Oh dear, this girl sounds like a sick cow.

Sweet Dreams? How about Rancid Nightmares?

[retrokitten]

OMG What are they talking about??? She was awful!

[Netizen]

pic came through for me

[MagUSNRET]

Sweet dreams my arse! Im gonna have nightmares!

[tina07]

you judges SHE SUCKS!!! money shots and notes she hit, whatever..okay, Randy, telling it like it is!!!

[linn37]

Horrible.

[peggybac]

God, I miss Simon.

[retrokitten]

Agreed.

That was really bad high school talent show caliber.

[slugbug]

I can see it just fine Jonny!

[tina07]

[Shelayne]

Evening Jonny.

On phone web reading tonight.

Enjoying the reading vs posting

[peggybac]

36 minutes (and counting!) until Revenge!!!!!

[MagUSNRET]

Up next...in her evening gown competition gown...we have the talent portion of the Miss AI pageant...........................(then again...it is better than seeing yet another stuffed sausage, I suppose)

[Shelayne]

She is pretty, though. Maybe that’ll be enough to save that horrid performance.

Annie Lennox? NONONONONONONO!

[Fawn]

I agree...this last girl looked great, does great flips and is beautiful...but she sucked at singing that song. Terrible.

[silent_jonny]

Haley Johnsen

She sings Eurythmics "Sweet Dreams". At first she sounds so much like Annie Lennox it makes me turn my head. But she loses pitch, then tries to scream-sing to compensate. Could have been better, but it wasn't terrible.

Steven: Some of your turnarounds aren't perfect, but what is?

J-Lo: You really do have skills. You can do all the runs. You have soul in your voice. Not sure it was a perfect song. But I know you deserve to be here.

Randy: It was a bit of a nightmare for me instead of a dream. Kinda pitchy all over the place. Hard to do Annie Lennox. Left me dizzy in this dream sort of a nightmare thing.

Audience boos Randy.

Seacrest asks Randy to clarify his comments.

Randy: (to Haley) You're here because we loved you. Just choose better songs. This one was a little trainwrecky for me. That's all.

[tina07]

YES, best show!!

[Fawn]

Wow...beautiful family..

[Shelayne]

Steven Tyler: “I didn’t mean it! I’m just a dirty old man!”

[MagUSNRET]

TYhis is DEFINITELY a Miss America talent competition performance....damned shame too...I was hoping for more from this lass.

[freedumb2003]

Is she Captain Dan-ing the camera?

[Fawn]

What is this song????????????? Sound religious. POINTS DEDUCTED For non-known song!!!!!

[retrokitten]

You called it- this is so completely beauty pagenty.

[peggybac]

I like this girl!

[maggief]

Nailed it.

[MagUSNRET]

DICTION, princess, DICTION! It is “Light your CANDLE” not light your CAN-DOLE

[freedumb2003]

She was on key and seemed to move the crowd.

Also she isn’t tarted up.

I give her an 8...

[Shelayne]

I do, too. It is hard to believe this girl is just 16!

[RummyChick]

I do not want to hear “I have goosies” one more time..I am getting sick of that schtick.

[Fawn]

Well, I missed the ‘message’...what was it? WHat was that song about besides a candle?

[silent_jonny]

Shannon Magrane

She sings "Go Light Your World". I wasn't expecting much from her (mostly because I didn't remember her--she's the "hot and humid" daughter of the baseball player), but she sings this very smoothly.

Randy: What a way to come out swinging! You have so much promise. Calm cool and collected. I'm a fan. This girl's hot.

J-Lo: You sing with such passion for 16 year old. You gave me goosies! My first goosies!

Steven: Just gorgeous. You took it up a notch for me.

[retrokitten]

Fire safety.

[Raebie]

The chicks this year are making Ryan look like a dwarf.

[MagUSNRET]

Wish Simon were there........Simon:”You have goosies? put on a damned sweater!”

[Shelayne]

I know! I have been cracking up about the same thing!

[Fishtalk]

I LOVE this song...I Love, Love, Love...this song!

She gets points for singing that song, on my Ipod and played every time I drive my car.

Seriously, it’s a Christian song...there’s a whole big genre of Christian music out there and I’m a fan, yes.

Wow....can’t believe one of the AI contenders sang that song.

I am filled with joy tonight.

[silent_jonny]

(((Shelayne))) Hi! :)

[Fawn]

LOL.....well..i don’t know it. Too many blonds anyway.

[peggybac]

It doesn’t matter what the message was - it was in her caw!

[silent_jonny]

Bring on Hollie, Hallie, Haley, Baylie, Cayley, Faye Lee, Lesley, Nes-Tea, Sesame, Lassie, Xactly... oops, jumped the shark somewhere there... ;-)

LOL!
