Tonight’s two-hour show will feature the much ballyhooed Milwaukee auditions. Apparently, the judges and producers discovered some exciting talent during the Milwaukee sessions, so I am anxious to see what all the fuss is about. Last week’s show show highlighted some pretty talented vocalists, so it will be interesting to see and hear the vocal […]

Continue readingAmerican Idol Season 10 Premiere Does A Solid
Last evening, I was extremely surprised with the premiere of American Idol. It was a well-paced, intelligent evening of pure entertainment. Returning judge, Randy Jackson, was a comforting presence alongside new judges, Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler. All three judges displayed just the right amount of tact, humor, empathy and professionalism when dealing with the contestants. […]

The Award Show Season has officially begun with the Golden Globes, scheduled to air tonight at 8:00 P.M. on NBC.

Can returning American Idol producer, Nigel Lythgoe, breathe new life into the rapidly dying American Idol format? Well, according to this article, it looks like the 10th season may be everything that the viewers have hoped for and more.

Continue readingMasterclass Discussion Thread For America’s Got Talent Top 4 Show
UPDATE: This blog topic was due to be published yesterday, but, somehow, that didn’t happen. However, after last evening’s performance, I feel that Michael Grimm gave the strongest performance of the night. Last week’s America’s Got Talent Top 10 Results Show was an absolute nail-biter, wasn’t it? However, it seems that everything went as planned, although I […]

Last week’s America’s Got Talent Semi-Final Results Show solidified this year’s Top 10 performers, all of whom will be performing tonight for a place in the Top 4 Finale next week.

Last week’s America’s Got Talent Semi-Final Show was not as spectacular as I would have hoped, but, in the end, three of the four acts that should have advanced, did so. Tonight’s 12 performers will also compete for a position in the Top 10 Finals of America’s Got Talent and it promises to be a […]

Dancing Masterclass Discussion For So You Think You Can Dance Finale
Tonight is the Grand Finale for this season’s “So You Think You Can Dance” series. I thought the majority of the performances were excellent last evening and I wish nothing but the very best for all three dancers. Kent, Lauren and Robert displayed exceptional dancing skills but I am still on the Lauren bandwagon. I […]

Tonight is the last night of competition for the Final 3 dancers remaining on this season’s “So You Think You Can Dance” series. It has been a topsy-turvy season for the dancers. There were far too many injuries and the voting was a little strange from my perspective. However, I would like to wish Kent, Lauren […]

You’ve got to love the Internet. That 15-minutes- of fame quote made famous by Andy Warhol is currently alive and prescient, thanks to the online “star-making” presence of YouTube.Com. Tonight’s two-hour telecast of America’s Got Talent will feature the best 12 acts discovered on YouTube as determined by the voting public. Set to perform tonight are: Jackie Evancho, […]

Well, the kitty-cat’s out of the bag – not that it was ever in the bag for long. The rumours have flown all over the internet. In fact, Nigel Lythgoe himself inadvertently referred to American Idol during last week’s judging comments on So You Think You Can Dance. It was one of those great “oops” moments that live television loves to […]

Well, we are down to four remaining dancers: Adicheke, Lauren, Kent and Robert. My favorites – Alex and Billy- have left the building, so it’s going to take some mighty fine dancing to keep me interested in tonight’s show. And heaven spare us of another injury. Please! It’s a no-brainer to decipher that these dancers […]

Tonight’s two-hour telecast of America’s Got Talent will feature the Final 12 acts vying for a position in the Semi-Finals. Last week, I was excited to see Jeremy (the biker guy) advance to the Semi-Finals. He is such a humble, endearing young man and yet his act is chock full of surprising twists and turns, thus […]

Will he or won’t he? That is the question and it’s a good one, up for strong debate here on MasterclassLady.Com. And the question is: “Will Nigel Lythgoe make a timely return to American Idol Season 10 and , with him, bring higher ratings for the show “? The departure of popular yet controversial judge Simon […]

I am thoroughly enjoying America’s Got Talent this year. I think the producers and judges have discovered some great talent despite the fact that many enormously talented artists were dismissed early in the season. I was deeply impressed with Michael Grimm – his new look plus his improved vocal sound made me an immediate fan. And I […]

The producers of this season’s “So You Think You Can Dance” show have discovered an unfortunate way to eliminate a dancer each week: injury. Two weeks ago, Alex was eliminated due to an untimely injury and, last week, Ashley followed in his footsteps so to speak. I don’t know what is happening behind the scenes but […]

Last week’s show was quite predictable don’t you think? Georgia singer/musician Nate Kenyon and the amazing act known as Fighting Gravity were destined to move forward to the Top 12. The cystic fibrosis sisters, Christina and Ali, seemed a logical choice as well, while the judges moved Future Funk through to the semi-finals. I […]
