I love Kelly Clarkson so much and I’m not afraid to admit it. She has such an amazing voice. Are you watching Idol? I don’t really watch it anymore, but I’m totally on the David Archuletta (sp?) bandwagon.
I adore Kelly. Open-heartedly!!
I got into Idol this past week in Chicago – and I think (if I’m not mistaken) that the boy you love (the one who sang “Imagine”???) is the one Mitchell loves as well!!
Kelly’s awesome, though – what a voice. I think she should come to Broadway and play Elpheba.
poor david forgot his words tonight…we still love u david!
Love all the little girls behind her singing along
yes, sheila, david is the one who sang imagine. And mitchell, wasn’t your heart ACHING when he forgot the words? But obviously, yes, we still love him. I was reading a review of last night’s show and the reviewer was complaining, saying something like “David Archuletta calls himself a singer and he’s not familiar with Lennon and McCartney” and that made me so annoyed because, um, the kid is, like, five years old, give him a break, he’ll get on the Lennon/McCartney tip one of these days. It wasn’t the greatest song choice for him, though. I think he should ignore Simon’s advice and keep singing sad brooding songs. That’s what he was meant to give to the world, dammit! We want more sad, brooding Archuleta. (I have no idea how to spell his name.)
