A Singing Competition?
All this talk of this being ‘a singing competition’ makes me think you’ve all been drinking Simon’s “this is a serious, artistic show” Kool-Aid. Let’s face it - this is a fixed pop contest. That said I like this silly show. I think it was brilliant they way it came down to Blake and Melinda: as if it was Blake, and not Jordon (who likely split the vote), who took Melinda’s spot. I wonder how that affects next week’s vote.
But if I had to guess I’d still pick Blake to win. He’s got the “Tiger Beat” vote and those kids are competitive (early and often). As for this 30 year old girl? I like him too. I’m sure I don’t know why I should be embarrassed for liking him when so many others think an okay Whitney Houston or Celine Dion cover is evidence ‘great singing.’ To each his own.
