I happened upon this video of Adam Lambert on this fine Sunday afternoon. He was interviewed after his amazing duo with Top 3 American Idol Season 3 Finalist, Angie Miller.

We know for certain that Randy Jackson is leaving American Idol. It was announced during the Finale a few days ago. Also, it appears that Nikki Minaj has expressed that she doesn’t plan to return to the show. So that leaves Mariah Carey and Keith Urban – but, if the rumours are true that American […]

So, what do y’all think? Truth be told, at the beginning of Mariah’s performance, I really thought she was singing live. Maybe it was wishful thinking on my part or an unwillingness to let go of the past – where everyone performed live. Ha! However, once those high note riffs popped in midway through this […]

By: Rosanne Simunovic That was a pretty riveting Top 2 Performance Finale. Both Candice and Kree sang the juice out of their songs, giving strong, meaningful performances and verifying why they are the Final 2 standing. However, in fairness to Top 3 Finalist, Angie Miller, she deserved one of those spots. That young lady was […]

By: Rosanne Simunovic What a great evening of music! Now that was pretty fine singing from Amber, Angie, Candice and Kree. And wasn’t Harry Connick Jr. the absolute best mentor? He had x-ray vision when dealing with our Top 4, playing to their strengths while reinforcing their weaknesses. Now, that is what mentoring is all […]
