There is no one today that cannot recognize this sign or the words "American Idol". The ever popular show American Idol is a well known televised singing competition, which first began on June 11, 2002. I didn't even know it but American Idol also has its own magazine.The goal of American Idol is to discover the greatest young singer in the country through a series of nationwide auditions. The outcome of the later stages of this competition are determined by public voting by phone.
However I think must of us really watch American Idol for its hilarious audition tapes, the "dog" comments by Randy Jackson, the steady arguments with Ryan Seacrest and Simon Cowell, and oh yeah...! and for Paula Abdul.
American idol would not be "American Idol" without a Paula Abdul scandal.
Just when it seemed the seventh season might go by unscathed, along came Paula. Tuesday's telecast Paula made fairly good comments about a performance clearly no one else saw but her, and that is be
cause IT NEVER HAPPENED!
The Incident occurred during Tuesday's show when the judges were asked to comment on the five remaining performers after they sang the first of their two songs. Abdul commenting on Jason Castro, started referring to his second song- but wait! he's only sung once.
"The two songs, made me feel like you're not fighting hard enough to get into the top four." she said.
"It was an honest mistake," Ryan Seacrest said. "Frankly, you were thrown a curve ball."
The audience began to laugh while fellow judge Simon Cowell shook his head and Randy Jackson tried to stop her, Paula claimed she was confused by her notes on the performances. Fox officials refused to comment on the situation yesterday but fans everywhere were burning up online message boards with all sorts of speculation.
My first question would be, IS AMERICAN IDOL SCAMMING IT'S VIEWERS? ARE WE ALL WASTING OUR TIME TO VOTE? IS AMERICAN IDOL A PLANNED OUT SHOW?
However, Paula and host Ryan Seacrest blamed her jaw-dropping moment on producers making format changes while the show was airing. Originally the judges were asked to hold their thoughts until the five contestant performed but then last minute the producer told them "We're going to change it up again and have you guys critique them on round one."
Confusing right? well that is was Abdul said she also attributed her second-song comments to seeing a bit of Castro's dress rehearsal performance.
American Idol fans are all awaiting the results from Tuesday night and many are waiting to see how the show handles the Paula mess up."Well I guess we're all just going to have to wait and see how the show addresses this controversy tonight and beyond" a fan says on the fox Idol site.
