Don't think i'll bother watching the finale as I don't like the 2 that are left.

It's been reported that Randy (Yo) Jackson is leaving American Idol. That only leave Ryan Seacrest left as original.

 

The show has been losing viewers by about 22% this year and people are tuning in to The Voice - The Voice is broadcast on NBC at the same time as A.I. on Fox.

 

It's also been reported that they will have a complete new set of judges next year as there has been cat-fighting between Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey.

I'm not surprised that many viewers have been complaining about Nicki Minaj - her weird looks and equally weird croaky voice - She gets on my nerves as well.

 

Since David Cook won 5 years ago there hasn't been a decent winner.

Wrong one won again. Although it was a nice change to have a girl win it was the wrong girl who won.

 

This was my top 5 in order of the girls.

 

1. Angie Miller

2. Amber Holcomb

3. Kree Harrison

4. Janelle Arthur

5. Candice Glover

 

Though I've not bother to watch the last 2 weeks since Angie was voted off.

Oh I disagree. I think she's by far the best vocalist to come out of a talent show in many years. She showed that she could sing pretty much anything she wanted to, and had amazing depth, soul and technicality to her voice. I absolutely wanted her to win since the first live show.

 

The singles are pretty naff though, as expected from Idol. However, Angie Miller's You Set Me Free was also released to iTunes in full form, and it's fantastic. Her duets on the finale results show were also bloody excellent.

 

I'm wanting to be careful for anyone who hasn't seen it yet, but in my opinion the winner's last performance from the first finale show (a more dramatic version of a song she did earlier in the series) was the highlight of the whole season for me. It was epic, emotional and gave me goosebumps. She ripped through the last 30 seconds of it and it was totally outstanding.

 

I think this was by far the strongest final 2 (or probably 3) American Idol has ever seen. Any of them would have been worthy winners, but I'm glad I got the winner I really wanted.
