I know that not a lot of you watch American Idol, but who cares, I'm writing a blog about it. I have been steadily losing interest in the show. First, there was the Sanjaya debacle that was last year. Now, it just seems as though there isn't any real talent...until last night. David Cook got up and sang Chris Cornell's version of "Billie Jean", a Michael Jackson song. It. Was. AWESOME. He really could have recorded it and sold it, it was that good. I honestly can't remember when a contestant did this good, save for maybe Chris Daughtry, Kellie Clarkson, or Ruben. I'm curious now to see where the competition takes David now, since he showed how excellent he can do.

On another note, I'm a bit pissed at Idol. How in the world is it ok to let two contestants on the show that have had record deals? Isn't this about finding undiscovered talent? I find it annoying that people who have record deals can make it in the top 12. I also find it annoying that there can be strippers and those with lewd photos in the top 12, since Frenchie was not allowed to stay for the same thing.

Anywho, I have to get back to work, but I did want to comment on the awesomeness that was Idol last night. :D
