American Idol

Written by Lauren Moores (contact - e-mail) -- August 22nd, 2006 | Recommend This

With an increase in people checking out American Idol during the latter days of July and new days of August, you have to wonder, what is up? Was it due to the ‘last chance!’ – only a few days are left to see Taylor and Kat’s performances? Umm…I don’t think so! The gain in traffic, week to week, with over 400,000 monthly visitors, came from none other than … audition details!

You got it. Auditions. Season 6. Where you at? If you are between the ages of 16 and 28, you too can audition for a chance to have Simon sneer at you in person, Paula joyfully dance despite your vocals or Randy call you ‘dawg’. Los Angeles auditions started on the 8th, followed by San Antonio on the 11th, East Rutherford (that’s really New Jersey, folks) on the 14th and Birmingham, yesterday (21st). For those of you who think you can sing…you still have time for Memphis on September 3rd, Minneapolis on September 8th or Seattle on September 19th. Get those plane tickets!

For those of you who don’t want to join the thousands of people who will attempt to achieve fame and fortune, watch the audition previews and dream. Yeah…keep on dreamin’.

    Americon Idol. American idol. America’s perpetual grasp at the most imprtant things in life. This show lowers the intellect of our nation almost as much as G. Bush who created in the minds of the world a laughable image of Americans.
    American Idol is so popular it drowns out the screams of legitimate artists and those who are actual creative, orginal, and artistic. The refrain of the same sound bellows from the stage whether they are what you consider good or not. One hit wonders just like the singers they portray.Too me, it’s just a waste of space, and to be very clear I’ve watched a maximum of 15 minutes of the show. And not at the same time. It’s the same rot every week.
    The really sad parts are that these people who perform and win believe they are talented. Talent comes from originality and that program lacks the minimum qualifications . The judges have a great, high paying job and for that I can see no fault except that Paula Abdul was once very talented and it’s a shame to see her with those two, “who are they” characters beside her.Thank God for the channel changer. But Christ, we all know this show isn’t aout the people or their so-called talent. It’s about the advertisers plus the money and distance they can squeeze from the show. Maybe next a broadwat show based on the proram but first one of the judges will certainly come up with a book soon. God, this countries embarrasing. Wait, wee could have the presidential debaes between asl the candidates on the show and the vast audience could decide on the winner. God, the people in this country are amazing. Like fingernails on the whiteboard, And the hits just keep on comin’.
    Peace, brandon
