This is it!!! The second semi-final is here! 12 girls will fight for a place in the Top 13 and be closer to the ultimate prize, a record deal! They'll leave all on stage to impress the viewers enough to secure them a spot, who will crumble on stage? who will impress? ... This is American Idol!
Read my comments and watch the performances after the JUMP ...
Ta-Tynisa Wilson
1-866-436 5701 - Only Girl (Rihanna) - 5,5/10 - Poor Tati, she's fodder. They only featured her sucking in Hollywood and she's first. She's getting the Clint treatment. She has to deliver a bang tonight and she's not doing that! Too karaoke and her voice is all over the place! Randy's face!! He was actually scared of that note. A really forgettable performance. VIDEO HERE
Naima Adedapo
1-866-436 5702 - Summertime - 8/10 - I love Naima! She's so ethnic and so real! She actually reminds me a bit to Crystal, her voice isn't as strong as the latest but she has vocal quality and is a great performer. Naima designed the dress she's wearing! I love the jazzy arrengement on this song. There's no comparisson to Fantasia cause she did a total different thing! LOVED IT!! Fave girl, maybe ... VIDEO HERE
Kendra Chantelle
1-866-436 5703 - Impossible (Christina Aguliera) - 9,5/10 - We first met Kendra back in Vegas when she duetted with Paul. She's definitely the hottest girl. Her voice is amazing! Love what she's doing with this Xtina song! She's proving what an amazing singer she is! And people wasn't expecting that! Kendra's got a soulish/bluesy vibe I just adore! OMG! That final note was stunning! Standing O! VIDEO HERE
Rachel Zevita
1-866-436 5704 - Criminal (Fiona Apple) - 7/10 - I LOVE this girl! She's so quircky and wierd! She's pulling a Brodway version of Fiona's song and she's doing amazing! She's showing a sexy side and her vocals are flawless. However, I don't think the American voters, who suck at that, will vote for her, she might be in trouble if we sum that the judges are killing her! VIDEO HERE
Karen Rodriguez
1-866-436 5705 - Hero (Mariah Carey) - 4/10 - WTF! She has turned so boring and dull! I loved her audition but never expected she will turn into this sleepy thing. She's singing half english half spanish. This doesn't work at all! America doesn't like spanish songs! The hair is horrible, like the curls much more. This is the worst so far, even worse than Tati. The last part was kind of interesting but yikes! VIDEO HERE
Lauren Turner
1-866-436 5706 - Seven Day Fool (Etta James) - 8,5/10 - WOW! She's great! She's probably one of the biggest voices among the girls! The song choice isn't great, she could have picked something more interesting but her voice is cool! She knows how to perform and there's no doubt she can sing her heart out! VIDEO HERE
Ashthon Jones
1-866-436 5707 - Love Over Me (Monica) - 6,5/10 - I love this girl curls and facial expressions! She's so fun to watch! However, I can't say that about her singing. What song is this? This is absolutely boring. She hits some notes but this kind of performances don't work in this shows! Another dull performance. There's no way she'll make it after this! VIDEO HERE
Julie Zorilla
1-866-436 5708 - Breakaway (Kelly Clarkson) - 3,5/10 - Ouch! The worst performance of the night! WTF happened to Julie! She was going to make it to the Top 10 but after this, she won't. As Tim, she seems unconfident without her piano. A Kelly cover is never good and with all the failures here, this was terrible. The first trainwreck of the season! VIDEO HERE
Haley Reinhart
1-866-436 5709 - Fallin (Alicia Keys) - 8,5/10 - Haley is another fave of mine! She may not have the best pronunciation in the world and I accept it can be hard to understand her sometimes but all the vocal gymnastics and tricks she does pays for that! And she's looking hotter and hotter as the weeks go by! I love what she's doing with this song! When she hits those big notes my ears melt! She's an amazing vocalist! She's in! For sure ... VIDEO HERE
Thia Megia
1-866-436 5710 - Out Here On My Own (Irene Cara) - 7,5/10 - Thia's got such an amazing voice! What's wrong with her is that she has 0 personality! She's just a dull teen who actually seems lost sometimes. All that said, this is such a great performance! All dark, only one light focusing on her and her voice. Nothing more! It's so simple that it works, a beautiful performance! And pitch perfect! VIDEO HERE
Lauren Alania
1-866-436 5711 - Turn on the Radio (Reba McIntyre) - 6/10 - I hate that the producers are pimping the wrong blonde. Kendra should be in this spot! Lauren does have a good voice and she has the biggest personality of all the contestants. But she's just a good karaoke singer. And that's not the point of this show! She'll make it far but I hope she's not the winner. Her album will be good but I wouldn't be able to recognize her voice. VIDEO HERE
Pia Toscano
1-866-436 5712 - I’ll Stand by You - 9/10 - No one knows who Pia is. She was practically never featured. And she got the pimp spot. OMG!! What just happened here? She actually came out of nowhere and blew us all alawy with her amazing voice! Pia has now placed herself as a frontrunner. Still, as it happens with Lauren, I wouldn't be able to recognize this girl's voice on the raido, it's just too simple. But she has some amazing pipes!! She got the first standing o of the season! Congrats, you made it to the Top 10! VIDEO HERE
