American Idol

Oh well, here it is again, ANOTHER season of American Idol. I tell myself every year that I'm not going to get hooked, but you know, it's kinda like a car wreck, you can't help but look. Tonight was the last night of the auditions, and for me, the end of the BEST of the season. I just love watching all of those delusional,tone deaf innocent people who, in some point in time, someone told them they could sing. Probably their deaf Mama's, definitely not anyone who can actually HEAR their voices has taste. I also like to pick a couple of singers I think will do well, and see how far they will go in the competition.
I loved Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, David Cook, Taylor Hicks and MOST OF ALL, Chris Daughtry from the very beginning. Some won, some didn't, but they all made it pretty far.
This year, surprisingly, both of my favorites came from the same audition,
Salt Lake City, Utah. More surprisingly, they are both female. Other than the first year, I've always picked male singers.

My first pick is: Megan Corkrey

Megan was the newly-divorced mom of the little boy "Ryder", with an arm sleeve of tattoos. She was very "unique", and Simon actually said "I love you!"

The second, and my favorite performer is: Frankie Jordan

Frankie was the gorgeous lady with the adorable baby girl and cutie-pie husband. Frankie is a sober, sane fresher version of Amy Winehouse.
I just loved her style!

It is going to be interesting to see how far these ladies make it in the competition.

Who are your early picks for Season 8 of American Idol?
