American Idol: Another Beatles Night

Kristy Lee Cook should be already packing her bags, but we'll have to wait and see the results! It was another Beatles night on American Idol and the contestants mostly messed up the legendary songs, with few exceptions.

David Archuleta is back and running strong for the first prize. He sang The Long and Winding Road with pitch-perfect accuracy. Wow, what a change from last week's disaster. "David, last week was a complete wreck," Simon said. "This week I thought you were amazing," Simon said. "It is so important that you sell a song and that you remember a performance and that was a master class."

However, VFTW reports that not only did David Archuleta meet with Idol producers during season one, but his dad, Jeff Archuleta, has spent the last 5 years working with American Idol and Star Search performers through his company Arch Music Group. They will investigate further this connection and they promise to report later their findings.

Last night's disaster (again) was Kristy Lee Cook, who tortured us with You've Got to Hide Your Love Away, which she alleges she chose based on title only. Then she barked something about blowing Simon out of his socks. I'm not sure that is appropriate language for TV, as I am not sure what in Simon's name did she mean by that. "I can blow you out of your socks," she said. Awkward! Either way she meant it, it's stupid.

The other contestants were somewhere in between the two extremes: Archuleta and Cook. They all seem safe and it appears that the Vote for the Worst choice, Amanda Overmyer, is going to stay on the show for another week.

Last week, viewers voted gay stripper David Hernandez off American Idol, confirming that his primary talent is not singing. He can now go back to doing what suits him best: giving lap dances at his former workplace, Dick's Cabaret in Phoenix or elsewhere. VFTW puts it best: "maybe America likes closeted gay stripper pizza bistro workers more than we think! Maybe this whole thing has just taught him to stop lying for no reason at least."
