And the Winner is.......Not Adam!

Kris Allen won American Idol! I have to say I'm shocked! I really didn't think he was going to win, but props to him for winning. I do like his voice and think he will do a good album. But what about Adam? Will he go back to theater or make an album? I think we will hear from him again!

I actually liked the finale show this year. They didn't cheese it out too much, and I liked the groups that performed. Overall enjoyable. Had to HOOT at bikini girl and her OBVIOUS new chest purchase!?! OMG! I was rolling my eyes as she was singing and then totally loved it when Kara came out and one upped her singing the song! Then Kara flashed everyone with her own bikini! Ha Ha, very funny, loved it! I loved Adam's song with Kiss! It was fireworks galoure, my goodness. Then he sang with Queen and rocked it for one last time, awesome as well!

So we now say so long to Idol, and have to wait till next year again!

Vote for Adam!

The big finale tonight on American Idol. I gotta say I've been an Adam fan all along, and still am. He's got my vote for this evening.....if I can get through! It is busy busy busy, but that is a good sign.

Loved all three of Adams songs. Wasn't crazy about the third one that is the token Idol song. Kind of cheesy with the hurricanes and all, but I liked Adam's take on it. Liked all his outfits, except the weird washed looking pants at the end song. The crowd was just screaming for him and Simon said he was a world wide star! Rock on Simon for that comment!

Kris - he sucked tonight! His first song was very good and I liked his voice in it. The last two songs were boring and I didn't care for either. I think Kris definantly was the one that grew the most on Idol, but I gots to say bye bye Kris!

Shaw's Shout Out tonight goes to Adam Lambert! Rock on Adam.

Adam vs. Kris

Ahh, I'm shocked by the top two on American Idol revealed tonight. I knew Adam was going to make it, but didn't think Kris would make it. I really wanted to see Danny there to the end. But I gotta thank America, cause their votes have now made it easier for me next week as my vote will be for Adam! No two thoughts about it, so thanks America! Sad to see Danny go, but I bet we will see him out there again. He has such a wonderful voice, so kudos to him!

Shaw out - remember when Ryan use to say that, Seacrest out!

Top 3 on Idol

Ahh it is almost the last Idol show this season. It is down to the top three, Danny, Kris and Adam. All three are really good, but I've got my top two favorites I hope to see next week in the final. That would be of course my main man Adam and my other fav Danny. But lets recap for the fun of it...

1. First up was Danny. His first song Dance Little Sister chosen by Paula was good. He rocked it and sang it well, and I enjoyed his raspy voice. But, I gotta say, I totally loved his second song You are so Beautiful. Good slow song and the song grew as it went on. Good job to Danny tonight and I bet we will see him next week. Oh yeah, and hot outfit he wore on the second song! Cute!

2. Second up was Kris Allen. I gotta say Kris's voice has grown the most out of all the contestants, but I just can not stand to watch him sing. His lips curl up stupid looking and it just bothers me. I don't think he has the Idol potential. I wasn't too fond of his first song, a little boring. But his second song was really really good, Heartless by Kanya West. Odd choice of song, but what he did with it was great. Good accoustic version of the song and he hit the notes well. So after that one, I feel he is giving both Adam and Danny a run for their money.

3. Adam Lambert went on last like usual. Simon choose One by U2 for Adam to sing. That is one of my all time favorite songs, so of course I was stoked. I didn't completely like the cut in half arrangement of it, I wanted to hear Adam sing the whole song! But due to time they got to cut the songs down a bit, so thats how it is. But loved Adams version of it, very soft and smooth. His second song Crying by Areosmith was hot hot hot! Loved it! I didn't like the background chic singing over his voice though, she needed to shut it! He blew everyone out of the theater again, so move over Danny and Kris, Adam's in the top three! Oh, and his hair was hot tonight as well, props to that.

So Shaw hopes to see Danny and Adam in the top two, but it's anyones game after tonights performances! We will see what happens tomorrow night!

Top 4 - Rock on Night

Tonight was Rock night on Idol, featuring Slash as the mentor. Slash is just the king of the guitar. He's just too cool and it was awesome they brought him on the show. The show also had a bit of a twist tonight. They added a duet section between the contestants. More about that in a sec.

1. Adam Lambert started the show off. They usually leave him till last, so it was nice to see him upfront and we didn't have to wait for him to rock it. Gotta say he blew everyone out of the theater! He was bad ass, had awesome hair, and the crowd went wild. I just smiled thru his whole performance! ***** Five stars this week for Adam.

2. Next up was Allison. She got a bit of a new haircut, and it was CUTE! Loved it and the fact she went to Adam's "hairgirl" for the doo. Good choice to follow Adam Allison! Totally loved her performance and thought she did awesome on a Janis Joplin song. She totally ruled the stage and came alive tonight. WTG Allison, she gets **** 4 stars from Shaw tonight!

Duet # 1: After those two performances they did the first duet with Danny and Kris. I was quite confused about it and didn't think it was good at all. Kris looked mad all night long and Danny looked like he was trying to have fun, but not really. Gotta give a thumbs down on this duet.

3. Kris went on after that, and he still had a mad look on his face. He was much better than I thought he would be since Rock really isn't his thing. I thought he got thru the song ok, but it wasn't all that. He gets *** 3 stars from Shaw.

4. Last but not least was Danny. He sang an Areosmith song and I gotta say it was his worst performance the whole season. Rock really isn't his thing. He went out on a limb with that song, but the limb snapped underneath him. It just wasn't him, but regardless he has a huge fan base and I still love his singing anyway. But tonight I give him *** 3 stars for this performance.

Duet #2: This one was the best way to end the show! Adam and Allison did a song and they were just perfect together! They did look like brother and sister and they had so much fun on the stage. Props to them, and I think it was my favorite part of the whole night! Go guys.

So, who goes home and who stays? I think the bottom two this week will be Kris and Danny, with Kris going home.

Shaw out!
