Lucy's American Idol Recap
Wednesday 03-17-2010 1:13pm ET
My friend Lucy is a HUGE American Idol fan... she even has American Idol parties on Tuesday nights.
Here she is dancing on the Ellen Degeneres show in Los Angeles:
In case you missed the show last night, here is Lucy's recap:
It was Rolling Stones night!
1. Mike sang "I Miss You". Judges overall liked it but Simon said it was kinda corny and a tiny bit desperate. Personally I think hes a little too cocky and I'm not a huge fan of his.
2. Didi sang "Play With Fire". Randy loved it. Ellen said it was great. Kara said it was 2 steps in the right direction and loved it. Simon said solid performance but not brilliant but still thinks she can do better. For me she's alright....nothing too special.
3. Casey sang "Its All Over Now". Judges loved it!!!! Simon said for me that was like an audition performance. This guy is AMAZING and he is sooooooo hot!
4. Lacey sang "Ruby Tuesday". Randy said it was the most interesting one of the night. Ellen said it was a tiny bit sleepy. Kara kinda liked the drama but thought she could've put more into it. Simon said some of it was ok and that she's over thinking it but there was nothing wrong with the vocals. He just didn't like it too much. This girl is so cute!! and an amazing voice! I think she'll be in at least the top 5!
5. Andrew sang "Gimme Shelter". Randy said it was pitchy everywhere. Ellen said it was his best performance yet and loved it! Kara said the connection bothered her the most. She wants him to feel more connected to the song. Simon said his gut feeling is that he was better at rehearsal but he genuinely hopes he makes it another week. I love this guy so much! I just feel like he's been choosing the wrong songs and he's so much better than that!
6. Katie sang "Wild Horses". Randy said it was pitchy but a very strong performance. Ellen said it was pitchy. Kara said she's going in the right direction and it was better than last week. Simon didn't like the second half but "well done". I don't really like her, i mean she's cute but she's kinda boring.
7. Tim sang "Under My Thumb". He gave it a reggae vibe. Randy didn't get it at all he said it was bizarre. Ellen said it was a little laid back and that it didn't wow her. Kara said " i gotta applaud you for doing something different with the song" Simon said it didn't work and it was a crazy decision. This guys kinda boring but super cute!
8. Siobhan sang "Paint It Black" Randy that it was HOT! Ellen loved everything and said she stands out. Kara Loved it! Simon said it was the standout performance of the night! LoveLoveLove this girl! She's amazing!
9. Lee said "Beast Of Burden" Randy thought it was DOPE! Ellen thought it was great. Kara said hes growing faster than anyone and good job. Simon said he really likes him as a person but his personality holds him back and that he needs to stop thinking about it and just let loose. I think this guy is SO good! He is so hot and he has amazing eyes amazing voice i wanna date him! hahaha
10. Paige sang "Honky Tonk Woman" Randy said she kinda pulled it out and he liked it. Ellen said she has great star quality and that she sounded great considering she's sick. Kara said for someone who had voice issues she did well. Simon said she did great but she still hasn't connected. I personally don't like her too much. Forgettable.
11. Aaron sang "Angie" Randy thought it was hot and that he's born to sing. Ellen liked it. Kara liked it. Simon said he chose 100% the right song and that it was one of his strongest performances. I don't like this guy one bit! I find him a little creepy
12. Crystal sang "You Can't Always Get What You Want" Randy said she's always great. Ellen said she sang with such ease and she saw some personality tonight and she loves seeing that. Kara agrees with Ellen but said it wasn't her greatest singing performance but it was still great. Simon said that she chose a song that didn't have what she needed and she was beat by Siobhan tonight. I LOVE this girl so much! She is raw talent and she is incredible! Top 3 at least

Here is the new cover for W Magazine:
Remember back when Jen and Brad were right in the middle of a split and Brad posed with Angelina Jolie for W Magazine looking like a married couple?!
Well... that same photographer (who is a friend of both Jen and Brad) took the pics of Jen and Gerard! And there are 13 more pages inside the magazine to enjoy.
I know they say they are just friends, but I hope its something more. I want Jen to finally be happy!!
