"Commericals with a side of Idol..."

It's never a good thing when you are more entertained by the commericals than the Idol contestants themselves!

San Francisco was another downer... here are the highlights and low-lights

Tatiana del Toro (23) "Never Loved a Man" by Aretha Franklin: Her voice was decent... if she'd let up on the runs and such a little bit, but she is by far the most annoying person EVER!!! She was totally scripted for TV... right done to the faker-than-fake laugh!
Will she make the Top 36: Dear heavens I hope not!

"we built this city-we built this city-on rock and roll"... priceless!

Jesus Valenzula (29) "Nice and Slow" by Usher: I would have passed. His tone and inflection were weird and he just tried way too hard... his kids were cute though.
Will he make the Top 36: Nope.. not a chance.

how awesome was rubix cube dude?
"no, no... a heart of ROCKS!" -- a Paula Abdul gem is response to Kara saying Simon had a heart of stone... hahaha.. she's a nut!
"who wants a shot of Akila?" -- Oh Ryan! ps. this chick was CRAZY!!!!

John Twiford (27) "Overjoyed" by Stevie Wonder: Good tone, great song! He kinda peaked my interest...
Will he make the Top 36: depends on if he gets a personality... or if we ever see him again...

Alison Iraheta (16) and Raquel Houghton (28): We just saw a glimpse, but I wasn't really impressed either way...

Adam Lambert (26) "Bohemian Rahpsody" by Queen: I will agree with Simon, he definitely puts off a theatrical vibe, but he does have a strong range and I think I like his voice! Plus... he was in WICKED! I love WICKED! for that he gets the benefit of the doubt... and till he does something over-the-top annoying!
Will he make the Top 36: I kinda see this kid as a shoe- in!

Kai Kalama (26) "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" by the Platters: He definitely gets the difficulty prize... the song showed he has range and talent. But Simon's right... without a personality boost no ones gonna vote.
Will he make the Top 36: possibly if he comes out of his shell a bit.

Wow! Only 12 golden tickets! That's not too hot San Fran...

Louisville is tonight... here's hoping some one stands out!
