The Prophet of Pop

Let’s start off with what was right – Haley Reinhart and Naima Adedapo being in the bottom two.  In a night of mostly subpar performances, they were two of the worst.  I was surprised though, to see Karen in the bottom three.  As a result, I was even more surprised to see her booted off…

Since I mentioned my family in yesterday’s U2 post, I thought I should share a picture of them so that you can feel more connected to the story.  Here’s my favorite one: Yep, there’s my family, lovingly rendered by myself as a 9 year old.  I don’t know what I’m more shocked at – how…

They say that 13 is an unlucky number.  Did I feel unlucky having to watch these 13 contestants perform?  Let’s find out! Lauren Alaina – Performing the Shania Twain hit “Any Man of Mine,” Lauren got the night started off in a dull and pitchy way.  She has a strong voice but really seemed to…
