Over at the MSN Homepage on this fine, wintery morning, there was an article about a possible replacement for Simon Cowell: none other than singer-songwriter Sir Elton John. Now, granted, this is still a rumor, one that was cultivated by the notorious TMZ people, but also one that I hope escalates into reality. Elton John does […]

January 13, 2010 
2 Comments
Below is an article from the MSN Entertainment Page regarding the NBC brouhaha over the Jay Leno/Conan O’Brien/ Jimmy Fallon situation and Conan’s decision to walk away from this trainwreck. What a mess and, yet, Conan will come out of this smelling like roses. You have to admire the integrity of the man and, say […]

Happy New Year one and all! I truly apologize for the lack of news and updates over the last month or so, but I had an enormously busy but exciting Christmas season. The marriage of my youngest daughter, the fun-filled family visits, the presence of my beautiful grandchildren – all during the month of December […]

This year’s production of the American Music Awards show glorified vulgarity, self-indulgent behavior at its absolute best – or worst – depending on your point of view, I guess. It also made me realize that there is dim hope that stellar and pure vocalists such as David Archuleta, Jason Castro, Michal Buble, Katharine McPhee, Josh Groban -need I […]

First of all, I would like to thank my adorable 3.75 year-old granddaughter and 34-year-old daughter for giving me a lovely cold virus. Their generosity is truly remarkable in that it has forced me to stay away from the computer and this website over the past couple of days. But, we are a close and […]

TThe critics couldn’t wait to pounce on Jay Leno, could they? Heaven help us all if someone comes up with an innovative and creative vision for Prime Time Television! Let’s continue to stick to the boring and mundane television series in the 10:00 P.M. time slot, forcing many to watch reruns of Frasier and Seinfeld […]

I will be away visiting my daughter and her family for most of this week. She and her husband are expecting another baby at the end of September, so this is a very exciting time for all of us. The picture in this blog topic was a quick photo from our last visit and that […]

September 12, 2009 Comments Off on Barbara Padilla * 2nd Semi-Finals * America’s Got Talent 2009 HD
A special thanks to “rodca” for tweeting me this video. Isn’t Barbara Padilla wonderful? And such a backstory! It’s too bad that she had to abbreviate this beautiful version of Gounod’s “Ave Maria” because of the televised time frame. Why is she spreading her mouth on the word “hora” at the 3:46 mark? Not good! […]

So much has happened over the course of the summer and, although it was tempting to keep this blog active and running, I’m afraid that my “real life” experiences interfered with my blogging duties. However, now that the Fall season has begun and my schedule has been finalized, I can now get back to the […]

Here is yet another example of the growing emergence of young talent. I was shaking my head while watching Kiril Kulish- unbelievable! He needs further vocal coaching, but his dancing is phenomenal. Oh, to be young again! Special thanks to kmbmiddlechild for tweeting the links to me! Update: Would you like to see “triple excellence”? […]

I just finished watching American Idol Season 7 winner, David Cook, on Larry King Live and was so touched by his sensitive and amiable persona. He is a true gentleman – kind, compassionate, intellectual yet extremely forthright and honest. He addressed many issues, including the recent death of his beloved brother, Adam. He also stressed […]

There is a sad story attached to the audio performance in this blog topic. If you wish, you can listen while you read: Over the past week, this story has been circulating the forums, media and blogging sites and has, in fact, been confirmed by Scott MacIntyre through Twitter and MySpace. Both Scott MacIntyre and Matt Giraud were scheduled […]

A Blessed Memorial Day to all. And what greater way to be inspired than to watch and listen to this excellent performance by vocalist Katharine McPhee and pianist Lang Lang. This video was recorded live last evening and I was just so touched by this rendition. It is extremely beautiful and I know you will agree. […]

May 21, 2009 191 Comments
By: Rosanne Simunovic The show is over for another season and Kris Allen is our new American Idol. The shy, young kid from Arkansas quietly stole the title from the refined, genuine and extraordinarily talented Adam Lambert. However, make no mistake about it – Kris worked very hard to achieve this goal, showcasing his the […]

Who will be crowned our next American Idol? Ah, yes, therein lies the question and it’s a biggie. Will it be the theatrical rocker, Adam Lambert, or the subdued, acoustically driven stylist, Kris Allen? According to DialIdol.Com, the race is an extremely close one and, in the final tally, it will come down to the […]

After countless auditions and numerous performance shows, The Final 2 comes down to Adam Lambert and Kris Allen. Who could have predicted this? Certainly the extraordinarily talented Adam Lambert was the obvious frontrunner in this season’s competition and I handpicked him to advance to the Top 2 and win the the crown this year. Will […]

As we wait for their final competitive performances tomorrow evening, what could be more appropriate than to feature individual American Idol Top 2 interviews with Adam Lambert and Kris Allen? The interviews highlight the intelligent, genuine personas of both Adam and Kris and I wish the very best for both of them. I think that both have […]

May 14, 2009 41 Comments
By: Rosanne Simunovic This Top 3 show’s theme should have be named “A-Cappella Madness” , because, in varying degrees, all three singers were determined to strut their acoustic voices this week. However, overall, it was an uneven showcase of performances, but the technical glitch during one singer’s performance made for some great live television. We can laugh […]
