David Cook was easily the best tonight. I thought everyone pretty much blew in the first round though. Brooke was especially tragic. It was so cheesy and she looked so fake. The second round was better. Loved Simon calling out Archie for pulling a Kristy Lee. LOL. Castro was the worst of the night though.
And how about the Paula Abdul mishap. She mistakenly critiqued Jason Castro for two songs when he only performed once so far. Maybe revealing that this show is a little scripted and planned after all? Plus Ryan Seacrest looking offstage for help on what to do didn’t help matter any. I would say Jason Castro is going home, but I have a feeling that he’s going to be staying to make it seem like it wasn’t trying to be swayed that way.
Dancing with the Stars – “Results Show”
I only watched the last few minutes. Cristian de la Fuente explained that he would have to undergo surgery for his torn muscle, but the doctors could delay the surgery until the show is completed. So they decided to continue on in the competition if they were kept safe. And they were. Marisa Jaret Winokur & Shannon Elizabeth were in the bottom two, with Shannon Elizabeth being eliminated. Not terribly upsetting at all.
