Lauren Alaina Chooses the Wrong Song

It all starts tonight, gang. The Top 13 take the stage…

THIS is “American Idol”!

Let me start tonight with a question. How many times do you think Ryan practices walking down those stairs without looking down?

The Top 13 are performing songs from their personal Idols after working all week with Jimmy Iovine and his crew…

And my first question is answered. The contestants are still choosing the songs…or at least Lauren chose hers…

Lauren Alaina, “Any Man of Mine”: 15
Clearly, Lauren doesn’t know her “Idol” history or she’d know that song is the kiss of death. Don Was gave her a good arrangement and it was the best performance of the song I’ve heard on the show, but it was the wrong choice. She should’ve gone with another Shania song…or another Idol. And kudos to the judges for calling a spade a spade…

And in case you’re wondering, no, the show is still not live. I’m not sure what we’re waiting for…
