Guest lurkerspeaks Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Last week Joshua had his "no homo" moment with Phillip Phillips. And this week he (Joshua) is wearing what looks like a blouse from the Jaclyn Smith Collection at KMart. What was the stylist thinking???? Joshua might as well have been wearing a rainbow flag.

Guest EXPAT Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 ROFLMAO. I thought the same thing. I think the last week thing wasn't really a no-homo moment. I think there was a private joke between the two of them and it just came across that way (IMO). But there is no doubt he's gay in my mind at least. I still think Joshua has one of the best voices I've ever heard. He and Jessica are so far beyond the other singers. How Phillip is still in there is beyond me. I think he will end up in Vegas like David Cook faster than he'll ever have a hit single. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lurkerspeaks Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 If there is any real taste left in the American public, the finals will be Jessica vs Joshua..Both deserve to win, but past years would seem to give the edge to Joshua. That is why I like other shows where the public votes, but the judges make the final cuts.. so that the block votes do not vote off someone for the wrong reasons..

Guest EXPAT Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 WOW. Joshua's and Jessica's last performances were by far the best of the night and of the season. WOW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Suckrates Posted May 10, 2012 Members Share Posted May 10, 2012 For me, ALL Phillips songs sound exactly the same. Am I crazy ???? Not sure how much a pop producer can do with that. My vote is with Joshua. He's a consummate talented performer and I can definitely see hIM in a concert. As for the GAY thing. thats something he'll have to figure out....

Guest EXPAT Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 These two performances at the end of the show by Jessica Sanchez and Joshua Ledet were two of the best performances ever on this show in my opinion. Enjoy. Jessica Sanchez - "And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8xrlOUvyEI Joshua Ledet - "It's A Man's World" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4babjH3QF8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members axiom2001 Posted May 11, 2012 Members Share Posted May 11, 2012 I'm mesmerized! ...haven't been tuned in to "American Idol" since I have NOT liked the current judges, but after listening to Joshua sing, I hope tol watch tonight, 5.10.12. Thanks for posting! And he is gay! Hope he comes to grips with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Spoiler Alert: Based on the performances last night Hollie should have gone home and that is exactly what happened. So the final three is exactly who they should have been: Phillip, Joshua and Jessica. They are all winners. I hope Phillip goes next with Joshua and Jessica in the final 2.

Members Suckrates Posted May 11, 2012 Members Share Posted May 11, 2012 I was hysterical over Joshuas "flirtation" with Jlo. He is going way overboard to try to protray a Hetero image.. Is this what his "handlers" want ??? You cant live a lie forever. Eventually it comes back to bite you in the ass. Oh Poor John Travolta !

Members Suckrates Posted May 17, 2012 Members Share Posted May 17, 2012 Well based on last nites performances, it SHOULD be Jessica and Joshua to the Finals. But if history repeats itself, the Gays cant/wont Win, so sorry Josh, you are OUT ! Start a therapy group with Clay Aiken and Adam Lambert. I am a joshua fan, but I must admit, Jessicas voice is beautiful when she does those ballads, and she nailed ALL 3 songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 The reviewers slammed Jessica as the worst of the night. She did struggle with Mariah's "My All" at the beginning. Her breathing was off with all of the lyrics. And I'm not sure why she didn't do the Mariah arrangement on the Jackson 5 number at the end either. I think she is in trouble tonight based on what I'm reading. I think Joshua stole the show and showcased the best voice by far. His "No More Drama" was amazing.

Guest EXPAT Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Is Jennifer Lopez getting ready to leave American Idol? Fox did say that Idol is in need of fresh energy for next season. Or is this just another negotiation ploy. She must make more than Britney Spears at X Factor or JLo will be furious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Spoiler Alert: I am so upset that Joshua is gone. But given the track record of most winners, maybe it's best for Joshua to leave at #3. He may have the better career than Phillip who will probably win now due to the teeny bopper girl voting block. As I said before if Phillip wins he will be relegated to the Las Vegas circuit in a year just like Taylor Hicks, David Cook and Lee DeWyze (although I think Lee is in Branson, MO now which is a step down from Las Vegas I think).

Well Ex, I wont say "I told you so", but learn the lesson. The GAYS wont ever make it on Idol...... If Phillip wins, its his ticket into obscurity like Kris Allen. and if Jessica wins, she'll be the new Jordin Sparks.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXPAT Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Here is Adam Lambert performing his new single on Idol this week called "Never Close Our Eyes". It's possible that his album could debit at #1 next week. It will be close. But if it does it would be the first time an openly gay artist would debut at #1. So if you are interested in buying it do it before Sunday midnight. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYVZcuSUx3Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I began watching Season 12 of American Idol about three weeks ago and took an interest in the last singers left. From the two left standing, I truly wanted Joshua to be amongst them. Well, he wasn't as Adam wasn't last year. Foul on America. She doesn't know talent when she sees it. But all is not for naught! From his talent Joshua should go far as Jennifer Hudson and others who didn't compete in the end for the coveted title and contract. Apparently, he himself was not too distraught or upset based on what I've read and from his reaction the other night. I don't know if a few tears were shed by him or not, but he seemingly took it in stride from his last performance prior to their tour.

Exactly, and when you at the Winners who get dropped by their labels after 1 year and go back into oblivion, I'd rather be the Loser. Jennifer hudson, Daltry, Clay, Tamyra Gray etc have all found success..... Rumor has it that Jimmy Ivine was waiting to snatch Joshua up....

Guest EXPAT Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Spoiler Alert (and disappointing news): LOS ANGELES (AP) — Bluesy guitar man Phillip Phillips is the new "American Idol," defeating teenage songbird Jessica Sanchez. Phillips, a 21-year-old pawn shop worker from Leesburg, Ga., received more viewer votes than 16-year-old Sanchez of Chula Vista, Calif. Phillips' victory Wednesday extended the "American Idol" winning streak for males to five consecutive seasons. The last female to win was 17-year-old Jordin Sparks in 2007. During the three-song showdown Tuesday between Phillips and Sanchez, the show's judges praised his performance across the board. Sanchez was faulted for a lackluster rendition of her final song, "Change Nothing." Phillips, who was a top vote-getter throughout the season, gets a recording contract along with bragging rights.

Guest EXPAT Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 This was an unbelievable performance tonight on American Idol. Jennifer Holliday should get an Emmy just for her facial expressions. Jennifer Holliday & Jessica Sanchez singing "And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going". . .Every drag queen in the world had an orgasm watching this performance.
