American Idol
Amazing how out of thousands and thousands of people who joined the auditions, only over a hundred (forgot exactly how many) got into Hollywood. Though it’s obvious that some of them just wanted to get their 30 seconds of fame, many of them go there armed with full confidence in their singing abilities. But this confidence doesn’t always come with the actual skill, and this is the reason the judges often come out as the bad guys.
Well, while I do agree that there are comments that they’d do better not to say, I don’t agree with how some contestants react, saying things like how Simon isn’t even American, how Randy doesn’t really know anything because he’s in the background, and how Paula isn’t good at all because her career went down or something. Seriously. They were the ones who were given the opportunity, and those judges were put there for a reason. Contestants should only react to what they say, not keep dissing them for who they are.
That aside, I think that American Idol is one of the rare few reality TV shows that won’t fade out so easily. Talent is easy to sell, and when someone wins, that’s instant platinum (at least) for that singer. People seem to love seeing talent more than drama, in fact the drama of normal reality TV seems to be the one thing people have grown tired of in the genre.
Simon said something like “I don’t know what we’re doing here anymore,” some time during this season’s auditions. And it’s true for me too. On one hand, it’s amazing (in a bad way) how many people would go there just to do something weird (like dance in a chicken suit), but on the other hand, if they didn’t go there, the show would be less interesting.
It’s encouraging for those aspiring that every year, you hear Simon say something like “Absolutely brilliant”, so that means that every year there will always be a fresh supply of talent, either they just didn’t come out before or they just got that good at that point. With that in mind, I really can’t see American Idol stopping anytime soon, after all it’s six seasons strong.

The thing is, the judges are just doing their jobs and telling it as it is. If one is blind to ones uhh… faults? That’s not our business. And it’s really unpleasant witnessing them throwing tantrums (that’s what those are for me).

lol Yeah, unpleasant, to say the least. And I mean, thousands of auditions per state, I don’t think any human being would be able to sugar-coat anymore after going through that.
