Favorite contestant

American Idol: Season 3 Forum

Pick your favorite contestant, not who you think will win.

At this point. Degarmo.

Subject to change

jennifer hudson

Amy Adams... since her audition!

Diana

(I like both Diana and Jasmine at this stage but have to give the nod to Diana for consistency. Either could win. I wish both could win.)

I think Diana was the only one I enjoyed listening to. Most of the others grated in my ears. No professional voices I think. The song choices were terrible, in my opinion. As far as the worst--all the rest.

This is hard! I like everyone. There are areas that everyone should work at, and no one is perfect. HOW CAN I PICK A FAVORITE!!!???

This has nothing to do with winning or losing.

So ... let's say the one I am rooting for and hoping will crack the shell and do well:

No secret.

John Stevens

I have some favorite things about all 12 of the contestants.

For starters:

Diana - Self-Assuredness
LaToya - Confidence
JPL - Self-Effacing Humor
Leah - Beauty & Fragility
John S- Geeky Gentleness
Fantasia - Openness
George - Smiling Sincerity
Matt - Tough Teddy-Bear
Jasmine - Sweetness
Jennifer - Hopeful & Hidden Beauty
Camile - Shyness & Warm Beauty
Amy - Funny and Gutsy

My fave is George - he's a kickass singer and his personality is so fun and sweet. And when Paula said to him how cool it was that he's exactly the same onstage as he is off, that confirmed for me how sincere he is. He's humble and obviously so so happy to be there - I think he's awesome.

Welcome to the forum, Solene ........

Look around and read as many of the posts as you can. You'll see that we're a pretty interesting and diverse bunch. We are happy to have you join us.

I certainly agree with you about George. He seems to be a fine young man and he has an excellent singing voice. I know that he will do well in this competition. Everyone loves him.

I am lovin' Matt Rogers!!! Yes, he is that "tough teddy bear"... Not saying that he is the best singer but, he's MY favorite...

!!!!jennifer hudson!!!!

George...the guy just makes you want to root for him. He seems to have a heart of gold, always looks like he's having a good time...I dunno, he's like that guy in high school that's always trying to make you laugh.

Diana , I got goose bumps when i heard "i got the music in me" EXCELLENT!

I've voted for Diana Degarmo. I do like John Stevens as well.

In fact (PUTS ON SEACREST'S VOICE)
here are your finalists America...

JOHN STEVENS!!!!! I think it is great to have a NEW Frank Sinatra. He is so talented and has such good style and has a great taste in music.

I have to give it up for george Huff, he iss our Hometown gggggguy. An entire page in the New Orleans Paper was George Huff's page. If all the people who live nthis city get the vote out,he is gong to go a long way.

He gave a great performance tonight.

This is Country Night? Could have fooled me, but then we are at #4, so will give some more time to see if some real country comes out.

They have Allan Jackson, Garth Brookes, and of course Vince Gill
I was hoping John Stevens would pick a Vince Gill song, but he did really well on King of the road, I like him more each week.

Camille- No comment this girl has to go next...

Paula Abdul is so the same.
Simon tells her she is not conquering her nerves

Since when does
Desperado by the Eagles turn in to a Country song?

I better get off this thread as I am getting off topic.

For some strange reason, I've loved JPL since the "pen salesmen" audition. He's just a total goofball, and he's adorable! I mean, come on, who didn't laugh at his goofy-ness when he was dancing in "A Little Less Conversation"??

one word: CAMILLE!!!!!

i've been a big camille fan since i heard her amazing voice at the auditions... hopefully she'll get the chance to stay in the competition long enough to get over her nerves so that she can shine and deliver some great vocal performances.

JPL

I think John Stevens found the right song for his voice range.

I really enjoyed his rendition last night. I think he would be more successful than anyone else on IDOL.

Diana DeGarmo

I think he has a great voice, just needs some experience.

Hey I read that Quentin Taratino is the Director of Kill Bill I and now jusrt released Kill Bill2. What the ....is going on to have this guy be a guest Judge.?

He was on the jay Leno show and got so drunk before his time he was a babbling idiot.

Why don't they have a theme night of special songs the group really like and know, so we could see the talent.

Becker , one never knows if he is serious, well at least he found the right thread to post in for a change. HEE HEE.

lata,

I just read a article in local paper all about George Huff, but i will post that later, beause somethin in the article. It was that after Simon finishes taking poor John down after one of his performances the kid goes back stage all hurt and teary.
Come on Simon, you should be able to critique a person without tearing them completely down. Bad Simon, Bad. After all Stevens is only 16 Give hima break!!

D.

I am serious about John Stevens. If he isn't torn down completely by "Idol" he should do well in the future. If I were an agent I would take him on right now. It seems like Huff is the leader right now.

Diana D's voice went right thru me tonite. I actually had chills. Of course she got my vote. I think the judges belong in The Nutcase Club........

john freaking stevens.

Diana was so off tonight I really think she may be in the final three and maybe she will be going home.

Sorry, I thought John Stevens gave a good performance tonight.

Loved JpL he really rocked the place.

George picked a stupid song and did a pretty good job but hope he has enough fans to keep him around.
D

Yay, JPL brought his goofy dancing back, and of course it was great. I definately think Diana is going home tomorrow night.

I think either Diana or Jasmine is going home.

John stevens. heres why. hes cute, yet geeky. Hes got a grown voice, thats deep and sexy. he has alot of conf. and yet hes shy. he doesnt dance, Much. but when he does it cute.

OR

JPL: hes cute. geeky/ humerous . weird voice that catches your attention. thats it.

la toya london: great lungs good voice. nice hair.

Looks like Diana stays on. My vote helped. Give her better songs.

No spoliers in the threads about who went or stayed until after 9 p.m. Pacific time please.
