Amanda, one of the best friends from NJ is gone. Baylee, the country farm girl who Simon loved in the original auditions, is gone. The girl with the nasty faces is gone. The Indian girl did not make it through either. They never even showed her singing. Her brother made it through, though. The show went very fast tonight.
Wednesday, they cut it down to 24.

I'm glad that skanky c-nt Amanda is gone. She did nothing during the auditions and then had the audacity to say "God looks after good people" (or something to that effect) when Baylee got cut. Go back to Jersey bitch.

Another one that got cut was Robyn Troup, who actually won the Grammy contest and got to sing with Justin Timberlake Sunday night. I thought she was pretty good.

Was Amanda the first one or second singer? The second one was the one who Simon said was better than the first, then when she politely protested he told her that in this business you kick your competition when they are down (something to that affect).

And I'm suprised to hear that Baylee Brown left, I thought she had the looks / personality to advance. I am not suprised to hear that the girl with funny faces is gone - she was cute and had a decent voice but the faces were just way too distracting.

I loved the beat box in the group song... Wonder if he'll work that into all of his songs in the competition, heh.

The beat box group was fantastic. The stupid twats from NJ needed to both go home. At least they got rid of the more ****y of the two.

I was a little surprised to see that Jory girl do so crappy and get cut, as well as the Amish looking dude.

That Amanda girl may have been a C word, but she didn't fuck the song up, while Baylie couldn't remember over half of it. She may have been cute, but she acted like a spoiled little shit when she got cut, while Amanda acted pretty maturely when she did.

Yes, Fidel did get cut, unfortunately. That's actually who I was referring to when I said Amish guy..I had totally forgotten about the Castro thing.

What happened to New York opera girl that sang the Jeff Buckley song in the first auditions? I didn't see her anywhere. They barely let her through to Hollywood because they hated the song, but she was obviously talented.

Yep, I didn't see her either. If I had to guess, I'd say cutski, since they didn't even bother to show her, but who the hell knows?

Maturely? Sure, she walked off the stage gracefully when she told she wasn't going home. But her comments about God watching out for the good people was the most smug thing I've ever heard. Especially since her Jersey ass was too busy on a booty call instead of rehearsing. Karma is everything it seems.

Every season, the contestants are warned to learn their frikkin' words to their group songs, and those who don't learn them typically get the heave-ho. Bailey's young, and she got stuck with a pair of contestants who diminished her chances, then again, I thought her voice was okay, and was coasting on her looks up until the group song.

Sanjaya did look awfully sad for his sister, even though he made it through another round.

Sundance Head was overpowering his songs, and was lucky to make it through.

I hope the human beatbox doesn't make it the final 24, that schtick would get old quick.

Not quite sure there are many strong female contestants, but AI has been canny in who they've showed so far. Not too high on Gina, she's got more attitude than talent from what I've heard so far.

It was smug, but it also came on the heels of little blondie farm girl acting like a spoiled brat and basically talking shit right to her face. It was probably a kneejerk reaction to that.

About the flirting instead of rehearsing thing-who really gives a fuck? The bottom line is that she had her part of the song more or less down, and Baylie (sp?) was the one really struggling. There have been several instances in past years where people spent more time socializing than rehearsing, or went to bed when they should have stayed up and rehearsed, and sometimes they are fine. If you know your shit, what does it really matter?
