I can't wait until tonight to watch American Idol will be a fun 2 hour show to watch

Darlene 05-25-2011 11:01 AM

I think whomever wins will go far. They are both so talented.

blueangel 05-25-2011 11:09 AM

I think they both will go far. I've loved Scotty since the first day he auditioned. Lauren grew on me and I just love them both. Now it doesn't matter who wins, they are great.
I will be watching tonight!!!!!

Grama Lehr 05-25-2011 11:32 AM

I can't wait to see it!! I love both of them!!

julia58 05-25-2011 11:41 AM

I probably will watch the last 10 minutes. Two hours of reruns is a lot of wasted time for me. I haven't heard if there is going to be special guests, what are the plans for the show? Anyone know...

cindyjean 05-25-2011 11:54 AM

I remember during the groups in the begining of Hollywood wk one man would not allow Scotty to perform in his group... Hmmmm.. wonder what that man is thinking now... lol

Dee G 05-25-2011 01:02 PM

We fell in love with Scotty the night of his audition. Lauren is very talented too. Tough choice tonight, but but we are hoping for Scotty to win.

denilynne 05-25-2011 01:07 PM

I will be taping it so i don't have to watch commercials, but mainly cuz i have company from Arkansas up for a funeral tomorrow SIL passed away saturday.

Scotty and Lauren are young rising stars. It was difficult to make a decision but I voted for Scotty. But either one will be fine with me.

Wrong, scotty was in that group and later brutalized his regret for not standing up for the kid

true4uca 05-25-2011 01:45 PM

I think Lauren will win tonight. Last night I felt Scotty was holding back, as if he wanted Lauren to win. I've always been for Scotty.

cindyjean 05-25-2011 01:47 PM

This was before that group.. When he was trying to find a group to join. A man would not allow Scotty to join his group..

mamaw 05-25-2011 03:45 PM

I think it will be Lauren after that last song she sang. Before that, thought it would be Scotty. Actually wanted to see James win overall.

NancyG 05-25-2011 06:04 PM

I'm rooting for Scotty. Both he and Lauren are great singers, but Scotty the Hottie has my vote!

zennia 05-25-2011 06:36 PM

Love the winner. Not telling you who.

gmaybee 05-25-2011 06:42 PM

My husband watched, and I mostly listened. Ran downstairs to see a couple of the singers and the last 15 minutes. I'm trying to get two diaper bags, two changing pads, two wipes holder and an organizer, one shirt and one purse done before a week from Saturday. Our weather has been so bad with thunderstorms I won't plug my machine in. When is this weather ever going to quit.

xsquilter 05-25-2011 07:04 PM

I watched it too. I'm not teeeellllly! But I have to say how much I love Tom Jones! Okay, maybe I'm silly, but his voice still makes my heart flutter!

what an awesome show that was. Either could have been the Idol, they are both so young and talented. Pray they do well and stay out of trouble. Think Scotty has it right.

sandpat 05-26-2011 05:52 AM

It was a good show last night. I'm really surprised that we were able to see it with all the storms around! Usually the weather people take over all the stations. I was happy that our station played it with the warnings on the bottom of the screen. Happy with the result, but would have been happy either way..they are both sooo young and sooo talented!

Fran Juern 05-26-2011 06:08 AM

My vote is for Scotty, but Lauren is very talented too, so I would not feel let down if she won. Either way they are both on their WAY!!!

Needles 05-26-2011 07:01 AM

They are both young, fresh kids, and should go far. I hope Lauren takes a rest, she could permanently damage her vocal cords if she doesn't. Jordan Sparks also was only 16 and she had vocal problems too. They are pushed to the limit and it's not good sometimes to do that to 'children.'

The entertainment except for one was good, and I too enjoyed seeing Sir Tom Jones. But that Lady GaGa should be run out of town on a rail for that sleazy show in front of an audience full of youngsters. VERY INAPPROPRIATE. But then a lot of TV is as I have a big problem with swearing around children, especially. Even the runoff contestants were minors.

vharris 05-26-2011 07:34 AM

Are you happy with who won? I really like both of them; I think that Lauren will still do well on her own. They are both so cute!

Lv2sew2011 05-26-2011 07:42 AM

I was hoping Scotty would win, but if Lauren would of won, would of been Happy with that as well! Infact I think the top 13 all sounded pretty good last night....

Debra Mc 05-26-2011 07:55 AM

No I can't stand these kind of shows. Hate reality TV.

true4uca 05-26-2011 07:59 AM

I was so glad Scotty won. I did think Lauren out performed him on Tuesday night. But I guess it wasn't too important. They were both good & so young.

DebsShelties 05-26-2011 08:03 AM

Haven't watched this season of AI at all, I like the new show The Voice though.

Minnisewta 05-26-2011 10:26 AM

I love classic country and Scotty can do that very well so I'm a Scotty fan. I think someone said Scotty could sing the phone book and do well. I am impressed at how humble Scotty is in every situation. I'm sure I will be buying a Scotty album. I would have been happy with Lauren as well.

dsch 05-26-2011 10:28 AM

The winner was announced on my local news at noon today! want to know who it is?

klgreene 05-26-2011 01:20 PM

Well it's the next day, the voting is over, Scotty won. The top 13 kids are all going to go far. My favorite was James, but it seems rockers (and I'm not a rocker fan at 63 yrs. old) will just never win. Now it will seem like years before Jan. comes around again. It will be interesting what Simon has with the X factor in the fall.

Oh, and PS, I was country when country wasn't cool. Am a hugh country fan. I just happened to like James the best.

janjj 05-26-2011 03:05 PM

I have been for Scotty all along-he is so humble. Lauren is very talented also and would have been happy with either one of them winning. It seems like the two of them are an item??? Time will tell. I love country music.

suern3 05-26-2011 03:17 PM

The next day....I'm so happy Scotty won! What a great kid and loved that he was also a baseball player. So much talent this year. It was fun to watch. I think they will all do well in the long run.

mskityocat 05-26-2011 06:37 PM

Scotty's voice just verberates through me. I think he is going to make a huge star in a short amount of time. I love that he gave the Credit for his win to God. We need more of that kind of awareness.

judyrael 05-26-2011 07:15 PM

Next Day, I loved it that Scotty won. He has a great voice. I voted for him every week he sang. Loved Tom Jones songs and Tom Jones performance. Hated Lady Gaga....she is so close to porn that she should not be on a family show. Otherwise it was a good show with lots of talent.

Kitsapquilter 05-26-2011 11:16 PM

I watched every week and loved most all the contestants. Some I hated to see get voted off. But someone had to go. I am very happy with how it all turned out. I am hoping to see Scotty and Lauren team up and do a duet or two. They did very well together on the show.

I agree with you on Lady Gaga. I think she wears all the "stuff", can't call if clothes, because she is really a very ugly woman. I have to look away when I listened to her. She has a good voice, just not anything I want to look at.

Minnisewta 05-27-2011 07:43 AM

I can't help but smile when I watch this. Wow, to be 17 years old and have this kind of a day. These are two very special men.
