OK I dont know how many of you have been watching the tv show American Idol but Jon and I are HOOKED! A few weeks ago I was talking with Pually69 who began and has run my trivia room I’ve gone to for 5yrs now and he told me his niece made it to the 32 finalist. Well she will be on next week! Ashley Hartman, check her out and watch next Tuesday night! Lets see what we think as Ive not heard her sing either. http://www.idolonfox.com/contestants/ashleyhartman.htm I just think this is so cool that someone ive known online for 5yrs has a family member in something on tv! Instant Messaging who’d-a thunk it? lol

Canadian Idol will be making it’s debut in Canada n’ I have quite a few friends planning to actually audition.
We also have a show called Popstars , a few of my friends also auditioned n’ one actually made it to the second round.February 20, 2003 at 5:54 am #64380melneeMemberThe first time it was on, we refused to watch. I dont like the reality TV shows. But this time, by accident, it was on that channel, and we watched some, and it happened to be the night that Keith (something or the other) sang his version of Madonna’s song “Like a Virgin”!!! After that jawdropping performance, and all the hysterical laughter, we were definately hooked!!!!
Its not just fun in hearing and finding a great singer, its all the ones that actually think they can sing that keep it fun and keep me coming back!! 😎March 2, 2003 at 2:18 am #64387naughtyprincess07MemberI haven’t watch it very much lately but i saw the first one and all I have to say is that Kelly can sing and I hope she maes it higher than anyone thought she ever could!
Go Kelly 😀

What makes you say that Diablos? Is there a specific reason you hate it or what?
March 12, 2003 at 4:51 am #64383twistedmetalMemberI would have to agree with Mr. D on this one. I just seen previews of it, and it looks alot better. It has a wide range of people being able to sing the kind of music they are good with, and not all trying to sing pop.
So my opinion is star search is better.March 12, 2003 at 9:29 pm #64385JazzBabyMemberI am completely and totally unable to watch American Idol, at least in the preliminary stages. Coming from several years of professional voice training, it actually physically hurts me to hear people sing that badly, and I feel embarassed to watch them make such total fools of themselves.
Plus, that Simon guy is an a-hole.
Anyway, I dislike reality TV in general, so this probably doesn’t help my sentiments towards this particular piece of tripe. And its sad that all the singers that come from those shows (O-Town, Eden’s Crush, Sugar Jones etc.) get one or two decent songs and are never heard from again. But I will at least try to watch Canadian Idol, as I have several friends from my vocal class trying out, and I know at least they can actually sing…
March 19, 2003 at 9:31 pm #64384SlumMemberI kinda tend to not like these kinda shows that try to “breed” music icons… Its a pretty cool concept tho, and if it makes someone’s dreams come true, then that is awesome. I’m not really into the Pop Scene tho, whatever floats 🙂
June 17, 2003 at 3:44 am #64388WYSIWYG7MemberI think the show is great and Simon is just giving the truth to everyone. He has just as much of a right to be brutal as Ryan does to make pathetic jokes.
