Lou you'll need to vote more than 56 times. I voted for an hour and a half straight for Adam last night. I didn't want a replay of last Wednesday's result show.
I don't think Adam should be criticized because he has experience. He's taken voice lessons since he was 9 years old, and worked very hard the past years in Hollywood just trying to make it in the business. If the other contestants wanted to be singers no one was stopping them from being in a band and gaining experience prior to Idol.
As far as the eyeliner, Chris Daughtry wore eyeliner on his last guest appearance on Idol and no one seemed to mind. Yes, Adam doesn't look or dress like everyone else, but I can remember when Elvis was on the Ed Sullivan show and they wouldn't let the camera go below his waist because he swiveled his hips. Also, remember when the Beatles came out? There was so much uproar because of their long hair (and their hair wasn't that long).
When I watch Adam I am totally entertained. Its not because of his looks, or incredible voice control but when he's done he's touched an emotion in me. I think you either love him or don't like him and that's ok. I think they are all talented and I belive Adam will be successful even if he doesn't win. |
