In my opinion Taylor does not fit the American Idol personna. He's too ....I dunno... goofy. I think its great that he has so much fun on stage and I do think he's a good singer, but I think Kat should win.

I know what you mean. I also think that this is the reason why so many people do like him, because he doesn't really fit the mold. I like both of them too, but I'm rooting for Taylor.

Sometimes, when I'm being wishy-washy, I want Taylor to win just because he doesn't fit that pop-chart-ready image.
I don't know if I agree with the saying that Taylor doesn't fit into the AI persona when the winners have all been so different. We have the rocker/pop chick, the blond southern country belle, the hard lifed black R&B (which I will say is do think is the most talenetd) singer and the R&B soul man. I don't think they have a mold and this is why Taylor is so popular. He is different. I think people (at I am) am sick of the bubble gum cheesy pop that Kat will SOOOOO likely do.
By the way scored my tickets this morning to the tour. I am dead center in about the 12th row. I am so excited I feel like I did when I saw NKOTB!!!! (also known as I feel like I am 13 again!!!)

I feel the same way also. He's not Idol material, where Kat is.

Whoever wins, I don't think either will be met with massive success...Kat just doesn't stand out, I don't see anything in her that differs from other female artists of today. Taylor isn't really marketable to teeny-boppers, he's fun to watch on a reality show but I don't know how much people could take as a "superstar". That's my take.

Yeah, it does not matter now that Elliot is gone.

and yes, Chris too (should have been him over Kat, at least to the final 3)

Really? What an odd choice for a band to perform on Idol.

What is the hardest part about being an American Idol fan?

admitting it

The hardest part? Not letting myself get so wrapped up in it. It's easier to watch the show if I take a step back and watch the whole process with a slightly cynical eye. It's harder when I let myself get too wrapped up in it and the results.

I've always been the one to watch here and there and never get too involved. This season though, I am completely consumed by it. It's so addicting. Mainly because there were/are so many likeable contestants this season. I'll miss it when it's over.

We saw them at Staples last year...word of advice, get there early....we got there a full hour prior to the show and the Staple center was already out of food; hot dogs, gone, and anything else of value i.e. shirts, etc.
never again, multiply your kid by 20K...

what was it like, besides the problems you mentioned? How do the performances go? Group? Individual? Timing? All cover songs? Do tell
I've never seen Staples Center run out of food, but then again I was hoping to make a stop at Paul's Kitchen for some Chinese food prior to the show
And I'm not one for buying overpriced souvenirs at a show. I only cave at U2 shows
