Could America Have Actually Done the Right Thing?

9:09 I love Madonna’s new song with Justin, “Four Minutes,” but a hair product commercial? Really?

9:12 We’re back…It’s “Idol Live” time. Nice that they didn’t have anyone on the stools before they did this for a change…Randy says he would like to do a song with the Idol winner this year. Wonder if 19 would allow that?...Simon tells a caller who asks why he finds it necessary to apologize after a negative critique that he will never do it again…

9:17 A taped performance by the Clark Brothers. I guess that might mean Dolly is actually live—I hope…Boy they are off tonight. For those of you who didn’t watch “Next Great American Band,” these guys are good, but they are not showing it tonight. Ashley totally screwed up that first verse. And they did much better songs than this on the show…Ryan looks a little confused. Maybe he’s wondering how they’re supposed to be the next big thing that he just promised us…

9:19 Ford commercial…”It’s Tricky”…Some of the Idols play street basketball against some imposing opponents and win…It was okay, I guess…

9:20 We’re back to the results…David Cook comes out. Be nice to him Ryan…The audience loves him…David says everything was blown out of proportion and that his blood pressure just spiked on him. Uh, David, I think that can be pretty serious, darlin’. Glad he’s okay…He’s safe…

9:22 Ramiele looks sick as she comes out…And for good reason because she’s in the bottom three. Yea!...Kristy Lee brings out a note that says “Kristy’s seat,” because she thinks she’s going to the stools…She’s in the bottom three. YEA!!! Could this be the night? Please, please, please!...Okay, that was some rather awkward banter. Ryan really seems to be stalling for something. Is there something wrong backstage?...Break…
