I find the reactions that Harlemm gets to be very interesting!

It appears that people either really love him - to the point that he can do no wrong or they absolutely HATE him and everything he stands for - to the point of being extremely harsh and mean spirited!

What is up with you people? This is just a television show! If you don't like him, don't vote for him or purchase his CD's! There is no need to be cruel to someone you don't even know (and yes, I know that he lied about his age, but you still don't know anything about this man but one incident! He may be the most generous, kind hearted, loving, giving and caring person you could ever want to meet or he could be a total jerk! You don't know!)

Can we keep our comments about Harlemm, or anyone else left, a little more constructive and a little less hateful?

I find that too. It is more like jealousy than anything. It would be different if he couldn't sing, or dance, but he can do both.

Women lie about their age all the time. So what? he didn't believe they would pick him if he said his true age. Arrest this man!

I believe him. He is the oldest and there is no-one else over 25 in the competition.

Harlemm is the type of performer who brings out strong feelings. You either love him or you hate him. Kind of like Macy Gray. Some people love Macy Gray and think she's talented. Some people say she's a no-talent and hate her.

More like strong cheese. One bite and you know right away if you can swallow another one.

Exactly If he hadn't lied about his age we would never have heard of him And I find that very sad.

gosing... you're a funny one. Sometimes I think you're a Harlemm fan and then I'm not so sure. I'll assume you like strong cheese.

Harlem is a superstar. He can dance, play music, and oh boy can he sing!! He outclasses all the Americanidol contestants and most of those on Fame. He has the magic and magnetism that is rarely found. I suggest you put your brain back in your head and get some intelligence.

SueReu, you're right about this. I am guilty of being mean spirited. I started out with a simple question about whether or not he should be penalized for lying.

I have said mean things about him, joked with others about him, and I was wrong. Harlemm, I appologize to you, and to your fans, for the mean things I've said about you, and joked about you.

You will not hear anymore mean spirited remarks from me again. Constructively speaking, I do not care for your style, and I am supporting Brandon.

Harlemm is a very talented performer, in all three categories.
No one should say otherwise. He will most likely win. I just happen to like Brandon's style better and really hope he wins or at least comes in second. I don't think people should be mean about Harlemm, he seems like a very likable guy and will can dance like no one I've seen before. So come on people, tomorrow night is the night!!! Let's be NICE.

IMO all of the final 4 have talent, lots of it. All in their own different way. I am so glad that we do not have 4 finalists that are very similar, that would be so dull.

I hope every one of them does well after this show ends tomorrow (only one day left--EEEK).

I really want Harlemm to win regardless of anyone's opinion of him. Of the other 3, 2 I would like to see what great things they do and will be watching for them, the last one I do not care for their style but they would definately have a great fan base.

GOOD LUCK!
Harlemm Brandon

One of the issues with Harlemm is that some people feel that what he's doing is not dancing.

Sticking your arms out and gliding like an airplane really is not dancing. Doing Kung Fu moves also is not dancing. Clapping your hands and stomping your feet is not dancing either. Harlemm is doing a lot of moving around onstage, but most of it is NOT dancing.

I've seen guys and gals crawl on the floor, spin their head, "moonwalk".... I've seen "the robot", breakdancing, dirty dancing, interpretive dancing, electric slides, square dance, amazon tribal dance, chinese new year dragon dance, tap, ballet, devil dance, irish dancing, wattusi, boogie, swing, samba, scottish dance, flamenco and many many many more .... these are all dances with different movements and different styles.

What must Harlemm do to satisfy your definition of dance?

I have 2 comments (meant in a nice way);

1. There are many types of dance, they are not all traditional. Dance itself is interpretive. There is modern dance, interpretive dance, jazz, ballet, ballroom, freestyle... blah blah blah, you get the point. "Dance" is a subjective term. Almost any movement to music could be termed dance.

2. All of the contestants have participated in the group numbers. They have to follow the moves they were taught to do, and most of them are doing the same moves in the numbers.
If you will recall, some contestants did not dance during their solo performances, and some not much at all. I would say overall, Harlemm is one of the few who have strived to dance.

Harlemm's airplane spins are dancing, however it just looks funny. I mean he's a 35 year old man for goodness sake !! Some not may consider it dancing. It's definately unorthodox that's for sure.

I guess I am hard to read like that. The truth is, I wouldn't call myself a Harlemm fan, but when he performs he just lights up the stage. He is so talented that he has stuff left over when he is done. I appreciate that. What he does. Trying to be original. I don't appreciate performers who try to copy or re-create other artists.

No-one would ever think Harlemm was trying to be a Madonna wannabe, so hearing him sing Vogue(Most original version to date), was risky and proof that he is trying to be himself, as weird as he is.

Originality makes stars. He's got that!

I love strong cheese!

Instead of "leaving on a jet plane" how about "purchasing a jet plane". I'm more apt to say that the song which comes to mind is:

THERE IS A ROSE IN SPANISH HARLEMM !
