I admit it, I am a fan of American Idol.
I loved the first season and was more than thrilled when Kelly Clarkson won.
Not only because she was a powerhouse.
It also had something to do with the fact that I couldn’t stand to look at Justin Guarini and his curly hair.
He irritated me.
Not to mention Tamyra Gray should have been by Kelly’s side during the finale.
Then during Season 2 I felt there were numerous contestants who were robbed.
Ruben Studdard did not deserve to win.
Even if he was the Velvet Teddy Bear.
It should have been Clay Aiken (based on talent) with Kimberly Locke as the runner-up.
Season 3 didn’t have anything to offer other than Simon insulting the AMAZINGNESS that is Jennifer Hudson.
She should have gone on to win the show.
Instead, we were left with Fantasia Barrino.
Granted, the girl can sing, but seriously…..JENNIFER HUDSON!
By Season 4, I was starting to lose interest.
I was sick of the oogggling over the male contestants by prepubescent girls.
But I was happy to see Carrie Underwood take the title.
America definitely got it right that year!
Then we were presented with Season 5.
Taylor Hicks.
Need I say more?
Other than Chris Daughtry—you were robbed!
Season 6 brought of the beat box styling of one Mr. Blake Lewis.
Dude had talent.
But if you ask me, LaKisha Jones should have been standing next to Jordin Sparks in the end.
And….I was never more happy than I was when Sanjaya Malakar got the boot!
Winner- Jordin Sparks.
When Season 7 auditions began airing, I picked the winner immediately.
This was the best season for me since the 1st.
After watching David Cook do Billie Jean, I was more than in love with him.
I was happy to see him win.
Season 8 made me tired.
This season I was rooting for Danny Gokey.
Adam Lambert drove me crazy with his incessant screaming.
Kris Allen was boring.
In the end, I was not pleased.
Which brings us to Season 9.
American Idol is getting boring.
This season more than any.
From the beginning we have been fans of Crystal Bowersox.
To us, she is the one we want to win.
But we also love Lee DeWyze.
I’d still prefer that Crystal win.
This is how I hope it turns out.
Either way they will both make it big.
Who do you want to win and what is your view on seasons past?? What is your favorite Idol performance over the years?
