I. Am. Woman.



She’s 17 and He’s into Beatboxing

May 17, 2007

America finally got it right.  Melinda Doolittle is out and two of the freshest talents remain — Jordin Sparks and Blake Lewis.  My money is on the former, but I wouldn't mind too if Blake wins.  

Don't get me wrong.  Melinda is good, very good.  She has a great voice and she has been the most consistent among all the contestants.  Week after week, she never failed to hit the right note with her songs and with the judges.  But as we have learned from years of watching the show, a terrific voice does not make one a sure star.  One has to have that X-factor, that "it," that star quality.  Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood clearly have it.  The same cannot be said of the other winners — Ruben Studdard, Fantasia Barrino, and Taylor Hicks.  I mean, really, where are they now?  

I don't mean to be cruel.  America, after all, voted for them.  But as I said, this time around, America finally got the final two right.

get to know the WOMAN

would-be lawyer turned homemaker. (day)dreamer. cloud watcher. moon lover. hankers for a life that's bursting at the seams with books and wine and art. believes she can only get better with age -- and swears by it on her three-inch heels.
