8/29: Idols live & other miscellany
By: Rodney Ho | August 29, 2007, 12:52PM EST
I spoke with the flaks handling “Idols Live” and will do the same thing I did last year: go to Gwinnett Arena at 3 p.m. Sept. 12 for the media meet and greet with four or so of the “Idol” finalists, then blog from the actual concert. (Last year, we got Lisa, Bucky, Taylor and Paris.) I won’t know which four, but I’ll take pictures. I am also going to talk to Chris Sligh on Tuesday, Sept. 4. If you have any questions you want me to ask any of the contestants, email them to me at rho@ajc.com. I can’t guarantee who will show up but I will ask a question to the pertinent person.
And here are the results from Idol Chatter’s season four revisionist idol vote.. Bo fans came in and helped edge out Carrie for the top slot. Constantine fans also pushed him up from 6th place to 3rd. My favorite Nadia Turner moved up to 4th from 8th, which I’m very happy about. Vonzell lost some steam, falling from her actual finish of 3rd to 5th. Anthony Fedorov also slipped, from 4th to 6th. Jessica Sierra surprisingly did well. landing 7th, up from her actual 10th place finish. Anwar slipped from 7th to 8th. Nikko landed in 9th, which is where he finished in 2005, too. I gave him a 6th place slot in my personal ballot. Surprisingly, Lindsey Cardinale, who I thought was a yawner, moved up to 10th from 12th. Not surprisingly, Scott Savol dropped from 5th to 11th with virtually no support. And Mikalah Gordon landed in last, compared to 11th in the real competition.
Season five voting is in full force. Vote away here. It should be an interesting vote. Will Daughtry fans help him win it all this time. Or will the Soul Patrol keep Taylor on top? I bet Mandisa will do better. It’ll be interesting to see if Paris remains in the top 5. I doubt it.

Wayne Newton!!
I LOVE WAYNE NEWTON!!!!!!!1
But why do they always have to have some big, goofy exathelete that can barely move?
Watching Evander Holyfield was like watching a train wreck in slow motion.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

Oh, yea, Cameron Mathison - nice eye candy for the ladies. Not sure about this Wayne Newton and Mark Cuban thing. Funny. But Cameron - oh la la. :-)

Posted by: mynana on August 29, 2007 1:01PM EST
Cameron is on a daytime soap, AMC, the only one I watch. he is very good looking and built nicely. it's always a worthwhile show when he takes off his shirt. He's the only one I'll watch it for. And yes, we are laughing here in Big D about Mark Cuban. I don't see him going very fall. Guess they couldn't get a basketball player this time around.

I saw him at the airport on time with the raiders, he didnt sign any autographs, Willie Gault (wasnt he on dancing with the stars) was very gracious, he signed alot of autographs, marcus allen was still playing for the raider and he was kool too.

Whatever happened to Bo Jackson anyway? The worst college game I've ever been to was the VT/FSU (forget the bowl) game in Jax. I had FSU fans all around me spilling beer all over me and I had one heffa kicking me in the back. I would've knocked her teeth out but she only had 3 left so I felt bad.

ATTENTION NEW DISEASE DISCOVERED
Ed Zachary Disease A woman was very distraught over the fact that she had not had a
date or any sex for over 5 years. She was afraid she might have something wrong with her, so she decided to seek the medical expertise of the well known Chinese sex therapist, Dr. Chang. Upon entering the examination room, Dr. Chang said, 'OK, take off all your crose.' The woman did as she was told. 'Now, get down and craw reery, reery fass to odder side of room.' Again, the woman did as she was instructed. Dr. Chang then said, 'OK, now craw reery, reery fass back to me.' As she did, Dr. Chang shook his head slowly. 'Your probrem vewy bad. You haf Ed Zachary Disease. Worse case I ever see. Dat why you not haf sex or dates.' The woman asked anxiously, 'Oh my God, Dr. Chang, what is Ed Zachary Disease?' Dr. Chang sighed deeply and replied, 'Ed Zachary Disease is when
your face rook Ed Zachary like your ass.'

Why do y'all play into his game?
Now here comes the ol' I was just playing around don't get mad at poor little me bit.
Either that, or a mysterious lurker will come in and start dogging everyone and flats will come to the rescue.
Seen it. Hated it.

T, you have mail regarding that person we discussed last night.

LOL at Jex!! But you are right. Those mysterious posters that never ever return always come at the most opportune times.

Yall are the best..LOL!!! @ JEXY AND SHAY!
|
|
Posted by: on August 29, 2007 1:52PM EST
I agree Shay & Jexy. Guess what Flats, Vick's stuff is old news, period. Move on to something else and stop acting like an idiot. You're offensive and rude and you need to quit. Last time you apologized and we forgave you and just like a 4 year old you're at it again. Stop It.

|

Posted by: Mitch on August 29, 2007 2:05PM EST
Jexy, Wahmber has completely lost what little bit of mind she had left. Her, Jameka & Jessica were in the HOH room for the 1st 2 hours on Shotime last night. She made the comment that Eric was only playing for himself. Well hello!! who else would he be playing for?
I don't know why her and Jamesus are so upset for anyway. Both of them have said the whole season that God had it predetermined who was going to win.

thanks for the email Kimmy, you are right on the money. lol.

Funny thing is...EVERYONE, with maybe one exception, is on to the little shananigans. He's more predictable than an afternoon thunderstorm in Florida!!
|
|
Posted by: shay on August 29, 2007 2:08PM EST
I am laughing too Shaun!! But I think Kimmy should get the credit for that one. "He should be a magician because of all the disappearing acts". Kimmy, you are a true comedianne.
|
|
Posted by: on August 29, 2007 2:08PM EST
LOL!!! i thought you might like that Shaun. It's crazy tho, isn't it?

*bowing* thank you Shay, I am proud of that one;)
|
|
Posted by: Jex on August 29, 2007 2:10PM EST
Mitch, that is too funny. Why the heck was Wahmber so upset that Eric didn't use the POV on her? Jessica is his friend and he didn't want to upset her plan. Duh.
I heard her call him selfish and evil. That's just stupid. Like you said, who else would he be playing for?
|
|
Posted by: linnykat on August 29, 2007 2:10PM EST
amen and amen, sisters and brothers!
ok. having said that, it would seem that the rule of thumb should be...
hmmmm nevermind; i don't think i can say what i was going to say without being vulgar, LOL!!!
and if that's confusing to anyone, oh well!

She also said he had no soul. Wahmber & Jamesus went on for 2 hours trying to turn Jessica against Eric. I'm thinking Wahmber will be rowing right on out of the house in her own tears come Thursday.
Power of 10 was too funny with her crying so much last night.

Posted by: Mitch on August 29, 2007 2:28PM EST
Flats, I have defended you in the past as a couple of others. Yes, this is a blog and every one has the right to say what they want to say but with any right comes a responsibility.
The Dixie Chicks had every right in the world to say what they did on that stage in London but the American people also showed them how irresponsible they were with that right.
The same goes true for this blog. You have every right to say what you want but you are abusing that right. You do not say things to contribute to the conversation but instead to see who you can stir up.
I enjoy this blog during the day. While I may not always agree with everyone's view on every topic, I enjoy it when everyone is here. When most people are not here, I do miss them.
You have been very divisive(sp) lately going on and on about Vick. Drop it already. People have told you over and over they do not want to discuss it any further.
As well tell the drive bys, we come in here to chat to sometimes get away from the headlines of the day.
Please join in and be part of the group without dividing the group or find yourself another place to go because I have defended you for the VERY LAST TIME!!

LOL!!!!!

Thanks Linny. I am excited and scared to death at the same time. The community does not allow 2 houses side by side or across street from one another to be the same color. I just got word at lunch that I got my 1st choice of house color.

Thanks linny.
And go with the chocolate. You can never go wrong with chocolate. I don't care what those health nuts say.
What do you call them? Doctors! That's it!!
Stupid dumb dumb dooty head doctors.
