I feel like a woman!&#8221;\u00a0 Dude.\u00a0 I lurve her music.\u00a0 So&#8230; now we&#8217;re done pimping her out, so on with the obligatory Obama references.\u00a0 Meh. Yes we can &#8212; get cottonballs for our ears.<\/p>\n<p>First contestant, Katelyn.\u00a0 She&#8217;s from a recently broken home, and TPTB (the powers the be) try to play up the sob story.\u00a0 Her voice is nice though.\u00a0 Simon and Kara both think she needs to put a little more heart n soul into her performances, but she&#8217;s through.<\/p>\n<p>I like the personality of this second chic.\u00a0 What the&#8230;\u00a0 did she just pass out?? oh damn&#8230; I wish she had passed out!\u00a0 And then oh my word&#8230;\u00a0 She&#8217;s &#8220;bewb-boxing&#8221;&#8230;\u00a0 Wha? She was cute and funny, but&#8230; um.. no. Not a singer.\u00a0 Try broadway chica.<\/p>\n<p>Charity Vance swears if she makes it through she will freak out and be the &#8220;crazy person on camera.&#8221;\u00a0 Her voice is &#8230; wow.\u00a0 She sounds good.\u00a0 She gets to freak out on camera.<\/p>\n<p>Que the Loser Parade!<\/p>\n<p>And in walks Angela Martin. Things didn&#8217;t work out for her last time. She sings Mary J Blige &#8220;Fine&#8221; &#8211; I love that song. The judges think she deserves a break in life, and she&#8217;s through.<\/p>\n<p>Now it&#8217;s time for the Winner Parade&#8230; A group of people good enough to get tickets to hollywood, but since we only have an hour tonight, they aren&#8217;t good enough for us to get to see them.<\/p>\n<p>Day 2! Curly needs to go&#8230; he needs to go soooo bad that I just hit fast foward.\u00a0 The whole Judges panel minus Simon tries to give the next girl, Alana, singing lessons.\u00a0 She obviously doesn&#8217;t get through, and this obviously a loser parade.<\/p>\n<p>Brian comes out&#8230; and he&#8217;s already a joke&#8230; but as soon as he said &#8220;my favorite artist, Tiny Tim&#8221;&#8230;.\u00a0 I hit fast forward. OMG&#8230; Just&#8230; NO!<\/p>\n<p>Harold is looking like he&#8217;s trying to be a pimp, like he&#8217;s all that&#8230; He sings Usher, and it&#8217;s a no.\u00a0 He tries to blame it on allergies, but Kara shoots him down, and he breaks out in tears right on the stage.<\/p>\n<p>This Loser Parade is set to Shania&#8217;s &#8220;That don&#8217;t Impress Me Much&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>John Park is here because his parents are pissed he wants to be a singer.\u00a0 They think he should &#8220;get a real job&#8221;.\u00a0 He&#8217;s got a nice, deep sound.\u00a0 Shania says he has a &#8220;beautiful bottom end&#8221;. Randy starts messing with her, and she changes it to &#8220;nice tone down there&#8221; which sets Randy off even more&#8230; Then Shania hits the hat trick with &#8220;you have a good head.&#8221;\u00a0 Oh my word!!\u00a0 Once the judges get over their fits of giggles, he gets a golden ticket because, well, he&#8217;s the best voice to walk through the doors all day.<\/p>\n<p>Paige Dechausse is an asthmatic. She has a nice sound.\u00a0 She had some pitch problems, but the girls think she has potential, and they convince Randy, so she&#8217;s through.\u00a0 And she&#8217;s so excited she&#8217;s sucking on her inhaler.<\/p>\n<p>A bunch of people are good enough for the golden tickets.\u00a0 Thirteen in total on Day 2. That&#8217;s it.<\/p>\n<p>Farewell Chicago.\u00a0 Thank goodness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chase-playing tonight, cuz I was busy rejoicing over Scott Brown&#8217;s win in Massachusetts.\u00a0 Awesome!
