I think the thing she is missing is PUBERTY!
She is WAY too young for the majority of the songs...she is immature...YES she has pipes...but NO, this is not the best venue for this kid...maybe Disneyland or Knotts Berry Farm....but not here!

The thing with Jess is that she has no personality when singing.

Thanks for the Snark explanation, Retrokitten!

Who the FRIG is “Ray Chew”?

Before Idol, he directed the music for Obama's infamous styrofoam column speech at the 2008 DNC.

something about her just bugs me, seems to have a sense of entitlement and whatever she does is wonderful, fantastic, songs way too old for her. Stupid to even mention her and Tina Turner in the same sentence

She doesn’t smile, she doesn’t have the demeanor of an “entertainer”, she’s not loose, she doesn’t move around....even she just said she doesn’t dance on stage and it was obvious.

She’s got a great set of pipes. She’s not yet a performer in most of the sense of the word.

It’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

I couldn’t pay attention to Josh — I kept noticing that FULL FIGURED background singer on the right!

That baby has some back!

with good reason, that duet was was bad, imo. Joshua’s jacket is hideous. Is that from the HOBO collection?

You know, you are probably right. At 16 she hasn’t had her heart smashed in a million pieces or similar experience to put into her voice.

Joshua’s good. Compare how he performs to Jessica, if that might make my assertion about Jessica’s morbid entertaining skills.

The only problem with Joshua, he’s all over the place. At times he sings some songs so outrageously it’s more screaming than music.

Been a while since AI’s had a black male winner.

I think that jonquil on his jacket looks dumb and black with navy blue?

They need me to dress those people.

Joshua Ledet
(1st Song)

His song is The Temptations "Ain't To Proud To Beg". This is good. The bouncing cleavage in the background is distracting though, LOL!

Steven: You gotta be one of the top two best Idols of all time. But it's hard to concentrate on you wtih background singers that pretty (see!)

J-Lo: You are so sick! I don't know what to say to you. (loved it)

Randy: You can bring R&B back. You've got the power to do that. The jacket is fly! And I love the flower!

Joshua has a yellow tulip (I guess that's what it is) on his jacket. He gives it to an appreciative Ferlie in the front row.

I guessing we are too politically correct now, to expect anyone to sing “Funkier than a Moskeeters Tweeter” ;-) LOL

Joshua’s parents told an interviewer (can’t recall who) that since Josh was the baby of the family, everyone was carrying him in their arms until he was about 2 years old and he didn’t learn to walk until then.

The same thing was said about Scott Peterson by his parents during his trial for the murder of Laci Peterson.

Jus’ sayin’...........

You were reading our minds.

Tonight both Joshua and PP are being exposed when comparing their vocal ability vs the women.
