There's an ad on that Fox40 page where a bear dances in casino. I couldn't take my eyes off it for some reason.

LOL.

But what mainly caught my attention is that while he said that he knew what the next single was going to be three weeks ago in the Dream house, he said in that interview that he didn't know yet what they were picking...

(You probably won't be surprised if I tell you that I don't care how Kris dresses in general, but man, that mystery surrounding that single is killing me.)

I wonder if they changed their minds in that period. That's when the sound person tweeted right? Some time around then?

and I agree. Everything's a mystery with Kris.

What sound person? You mean the guy who said that they were doing another version of The Truth with the guy from Train?

Uuugggghhh.

Yeah the remix of The Truth. LOL (It's a good song!! LMAO)

Although who knows what the hell they are doing to it. It might end up really odd. Or really good. Or just plain whack.

So Adam has lasers tonight? Anyone surprised? Maybe there will be fireworks too.

I've tried to like The Truth, I swear!!! I've been listening to it more recently, but nope, it's not growing on me.

Holy hell, that group number. It was so cheesy, it was creepy. Slezak should have told Warwick that the bad lipsynch had to go, in addition to the swaybots.

I guess it was so obvious that Andrew was leaving that they got over with it pretty fast. Andrew was really gracious.

Poor Lee looked almost as crushed as Andrew's wife!

I am so going to cry during IGB. It even made Kara somewhat likeable.

Brooke and Justin were good! But I don't know if it's because of his last name, but Justin reminds me of a living version of Gaston from Beauty and the Beast. It's slightly disturbing.

LOL -- Kris on the cover of Rollingstone with a Sheep. They talk about Adam mentoring. And every other Idol question they throw at him.

Gotta be honest, much as I love Kris I can't listen to every single radio interview he does. (I don't think he would mind.) So can you explain about the sheep comment? :)

I thought Brooke was good, Justin not so much. He seems to be all about the image, but I thought his singing was less than wonderful.

What about Adam and lasers? He's such a bore to me. *yawns*

There was an ad on about 10 minutes before the show, where the announcer said, "You made him a rock star! Now see Adam Lambert perform tonight on American Idol!" (I didn't make him anything, actually. heh.)

There are also live comercials Ryan does every week 15 minutes or so prior to the show -- do you guys get those on TV? Ryan in the theatre, sometimes one of the contestants with him, or one of the judges...

Yeah, Justin is not a great singer, I was trying mostly to concentrate on Brooke.

I hope Katie goes home.

I probably get those commercials with Ryan, but I usually only turn on the TV a minute before the show starts.

Can I just interject here, one thing I loathe about Adam is how he refers to himself, over and over, as a "rock star," as in "American Idol gave me a chance to be a rock star!" I've heard Jacob Hoggard interviewed where he's been referred to as a rock star, and he has cut off the interviewer and said "I'm not a rock star." Jacob said something like "Mick Jagger is a rock star. Not me." But Adam, who is just clueless, not arrogant, is always referring to himself that way. It sounds so stupid. Someone should tell him.

I'm sorry (watching his performance)...absolutely hate his voice. I find that to be one of the most unpleasant sounds I can imagine having to listen to. It's so nasal and grating.

I'd say this is a slightly bigger presentation than they gave season 7's runner up. Anyone agree?

Okay, I do like that song (though I'm already getting tired of it... disposable music). I liked the visuals, but Adam sounded really whiny tonight (his voice I mean). It wasn't really pleasant.

It still feels like acting to me when Adam performs. I don't know, I have trouble believing his emotions or something. I'd say it lacks authenticity, but I think that is actually authentic Adam.

Seacrest: "One of you is going home. The other wasn't even in the bottom 3 tonight." So who was in the bottom 3?
