American Idol - San Diego and Charleston Auditions

OK, Blog Buddies. Here's my American Idol Wrap-up for San Diego and Charleston. Enjoy. (Don't mind my plea for a Flip Cam. Just ignore it. Really. Even a 30-minute. White or black only. I don't want any crazy colors. Just saying.) Moving along:



Anyway, here are my notes:
San Diego -
Tetyana Ostapowych - Someone to Watch Over Me. Very good. Love her. Watch for her.
Perrie Cataldo - Single father from Arizona. Very nice voice.
Michael Johns - Australian. Kinda rockish. I like him. "White soul singer" - Simon.
Marat Hayrapetyan - Awful, terrible.
Christopher Mitchell - Sang way too high.
Tehilla Lauder - Weird.
Valerie Reyes - Mariah Carey wannabe. Not good at all. Screaming.
Joseph and Juanita - Mexican and mime?
Monique Gibson - I Believe in Miracles (Whitney Houston). Not good. Really strange. She freaked out.
Christopher Baker - Sang the same song. Just as bad. Tried to sing too many songs.
Samantha Musa - Aretha song. Very good. She and her sister obsessed with Simon. Watch for her.
Blake Boshnak - Eleventh time auditioning. Stand By Me. Decently good. Not amazing. Thought he'd move on.
Alberto Hurtado - Whackjob. Original song. Long nails. "Most depressing song" - Simon.
Aaron Garrett - Very strange. Leave Me Alone.
David Archuleta - Vocal paralysis. Possible conflict with Star Search. Really good. Loved him. Waiting on the World to Change. Watch for him.
Carly Smithson - I'm Every Woman. Not fabulous, but pretty good.

Charleston -
Raysharde Henderson - Not bad, did some weird thing with his voice.
DeAnna Prevatte - Hmm. Interesting. Has a voice.
Randy Stark & Crystal Ortiz - Dating. Really awkward voice.
Michelle & Jeffery Lampkin - Very good together. Alone? I'm not sure. I like them.
Amy Flynn - Abstinence girl. Kinda sketchy vocally.
London Weidberg - Not amazing. I don't think she'll make it past Hollywood.
Lyndsey Goodman - Black Velvet. Very nice voice, a little bit strained and screamy.
Aretha Codner - Very large tatas. Strong voice, but pushed and mainly flat.
Joshua Boson - Whackjob. Sang And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going. Extremely f-ed up.
Oliver Highman - Good voice. Had baby day before. Shouldn't go into falsetto. Warbly.

And that's it. Take my critiques with a grain of salt. It's just my opinion. I don't know these people and I don't have anything against them personally. Just my predictions based on previous seasons and a year and a half of college music.

Have a great night or day, whenever it is you're reading this!
