New day!
Some people have asked me how I'm doing today, kinda unexpectedly from my end. I mean, usually if someone asks how you're doing it's either because they want something from you or they're just being polite in their greeting. But these people today really wanted to know how I was doing. I wonder why...And now for my inane observation for the day. I like watching American Idol, but I have no idea what the judges are looking for. Is it pure singing talent, because if it's just that then I know there could have been a better final 12 than that. It would explain, however, why everyone was so bad at singing musicals. They don't really know how to act, all they can do is sing. Kinda funny, though. I'd think with the sheer number of people that tried out that they could get some better pure singers than that.
I'd assume an idol would be something you could idolize. However the idols chosen don't seem to represent the America I know. Look at season two, where you had an overweight black guy and a metrosexual white guy for the finalists. Where in our culture is this idolized, outside of the Bravo channel?
The finals should be between a homeless guy with a heart of gold and a retired teenager who just does whatever. That's your American Idol.
