Ruben Studdard returned to the American Idol stage this week to perform the first single "Together" off his upcoming fourth album Love IS (May 19th). The Top 10 took on Motown &, in what is becoming a typical thing, Adam Lambert was incredible. My girl Lil Rounds didn't get enough credit though. Kris Allen continued his streak of solid performances as well. As for everyone else, not so much. Megan Joy, who I usually like, was a disappointment. Matt Giraud continued his whiny nonsense, while Scott MacIntyre continued to prove that he's been here much too long. Anoop Desai's falsetto just didn't do it for me. The judges' continued praise of Old Yeller still leaves me confused & Allison Iraheta showed us just how--yes, judges--amateur she is. While I would've been pleased to see Matt get out of our hair, Michael Sarver's time to go (finally) came. That's not to say I actually thought for a second Matt was actually in the bottom two. They just pulled the same crap they did with Allison, who unsurprisingly had this week's pimp spot, last week: let's scare America into voting for this person that we love so much even though they don't! The rigging on this show is so obvious & sickening. Having recently watched some past Idol performances, I realized just how dry the talent they have to choose from has run. These amateurish screamers & yellers are nothing compared to the powerhouses Idol used to have (& never appreciated). Sad day.
