Sitting here, I was thinking about the American idol competition and how good this season is, I have never been a big fan of American idol any season for that matter. But I have from time to time watched a couple of episodes to see what was going on. This season was different to me for some reason with the new judging cast of Jenifer Lopez, Randy Jackson and Steven Tyler.
This new cast seems to gel better for me, I think in the past I never liked watching or hearing Simon Cowell judge the kids and call them nasty remarks. I believe that all though he had some truth to the things he said, there is always a better way to say things without leaving them with their heart all torn out to pieces.
Jenifer Lopez seems to have brought some new oomph to the judging table; she brings the charisma and sparks something that was sorely lacking from the judges table. Steven Tyler gives the edge and style that some people might fail to appreciate, however he has always been a great artist in my book. Randy is still the same however I do see him trying to bring a little more negativity to the game, in my opinion more for ratings than anything else.
The main reason for writing this is really to address the issue of Haley reinhart the one true reason why I watched the show or even tuned in. The first time I heard this girl sing I have been captivated by her, I am not one to watch a lot of music videos are by music cds and things.
Not that I don’t want to but mainly because now-a-days many artists don’t sound as good or even pique my interest.
I’m more an old school girl; I love rock and roll, classic rock. Jazz, alternative, classical, rap, hip hop. You name it I can find you an artist that I like.
That is why when American idol, voted off Haley reinhart I was so shocked. This girl truly deserved to win, she has something different and presence as Beyoncé said and a style that is truly different more old school, a little new school. But something different with a lot of soul, mainly this girl knows how to rock and if you have been watching the show she reminds me a little bit of Teena Marie, (but that is just my opinion).
Anyhow I was said when she got voted off American Idol, and I can truly say I will be buying her CD when it is released.
Haley Reinhart you have yourself a true fan.
