That's another thing...

This poor kid has NO idea WTF is going on around him apparently. I really think that HE thinks that he's some kind of sex symbol or something!!

People vote for that kid cuz he's just that - a kid. And no, not a sex symbol, but a dork on top of it. Which is fine; I'm a dork myself. BUT - this shit has really gone to his head, and, he thinks he's some hotshot now (rather than a pity vote), and, that could just well perpetuate itself so much that he could actually freakin' win this thing!! And, if that happens -- hell, if he's even in the Top 10 -- I don't expect this series to have any more real credibility.

Sad. But true.

The general public isn't voting on talent. And sure, he has SOME talent, and actually did a halfway decent job tonight (for a change)... but he has NO range whatsover, and he certainly is NOT one of the 12 Best in the country!! WHY people vote on just looks/story/whatever is beyond me.

If it was a spelling bee, left up to public vote somehow... this'd be one of the worst spellers ending up in the Top 12. Does that make any sense? NO, of course not. It's bullcrap.

I'm still gonna watch - at least for now - but that doesn't change the B.S. Factor at all.

Last week's results really disappointed me.
