So I have a kajillion notes about Idol (and a maGRILLION notes on everything else) none of which I've had time to type up and post, but I had to hop on here tonight and vent because I'm so very very annoyed. I cannot believe that Gina was kicked off the show. George and I have been fighting for the last few weeks about this idiotic Keep Sanjaya campaign that votefortheworst.com and Howard Stern, among others, are pushing. They all (including George) think it's hysterical; I think it's horrible. For many reasons, not the least of which because there is a seventeen year old CHILD at the other end of this campaign...a kid the same age as The Kiddo and the thought of half a COUNTRY using him for an experimental JOKE? Makes me ache inside. George (whose soul is a black hole of rotted NOTHINGNESS, you know...in case you forgot) finds the whole thing entertaining. He's been telling me all the reasons why it's not a travesty of justice for this to happen. And, I'll admit, some of the reasons make sense in an obscure way that I still disagree with but at least explain some of the reasons people are going to these extremes. And I even had a few moments this morning that felt epiphany-like and I started to slide toward the dark side to be near my George. Well, not JUST to be near him. Also I'm so freakin' tired of how the producers CLEARLY have their minds made up before the show even kicks off on who they feel should win and they shove it down our throats every step of the way. Paula is such a desperate people-pleaser that you can tell from her actions, if by no other means, who they've chosen. And usually? The person isn't All That (Reuben? Fantasia? Hello? Where are THEY now??). This year it's Lakisha and she drives me IN.FRIGGIN.SANE. The girl is ...just... bleh. I'm embarrassed FOR her when she performs. Her outfits, while getting better, are always the least flattering patches of fabric available. She clearly hasn't learned the Chunky Girl Mantra: "Juuuust cuz ya CAN, doesn't mean ya SHOULD". Also, she baffles me with her repeated Crotch Smacking she does in every one of her performances. I'm assuming it's ...I don't even KNOW why a grown woman would grab at her own crotch, but there ya go. Honestly? It looks like she has some sort of STD that's so scorching and untreated that it's driving her crazy and she can't resist the urge to swat at it during her performances. It makes me want to send her CREAM. She also seems incapable of standing with her legs together, remotely resembling a lady (perhaps that's related to her STD Dance? Who's to say!) And I know that my discomfort over her widespread legs (not to mention her penchant for the Poop Squat) sounds old fashioned, but dear GOD. And when combined with her insisting on wearing skin-tight outfits, usually sans sleeves, so her bat wing arms are just a-flappin' in the wind? Ick. And I'm not even going to DISCUSS her teeth and the way she refuses to even attempt to hold her tongue inside her mouth. EVER.
I'm sorry. I think we can all agree that Gracie doesn't like her. (Ya think!?) And go right ahead and assume that criticizing her comes from my own insecurities. Okay. Fine. But...bitch needs some WORK.
Sorry again. [/tangent]
So yes, a light bulb went off in my head this morning and I thought, You know what? I'm so sick and tired of them shoving Lakisha down my throat, constantly praising her when, in fact, Jordin is the true talent (don't EVEN give me that Melinda crap. She is so theater and that phony humility makes me want to stab her in the EYE...all "w-w-w-what? y-y-you ...LIKE me?? I don't...I...I don't SUCK? OmigOD! I was gonna kill myself right after the show, but holy moly, y'all! You...you think I'm okay? Lil ole ME?? Reeeeally? Well okay! I'll save the overdose of ex-lax till NEXT week! Thank you thank you THANKYOUTHANKYOU!!" Seriously. George and I fight over who gets to punch her in the head first).
Shit. What IS it with me and tangents today!?
So I'm tired of them insisting that those two are all that and more, so I started thinking maybe I would take George's side. While I disagree with who they're keeping on the show and why, at least it would knock 'em for a loop and force the producers to stop shoving their own choice for Idol Winner down our throats and let US choose and let US remind them who's boss, right? I still don't agree with them using Sanjaya as a joke, but...he seems to be taking it in stride, right? Not showing how much it has to hurt? Though I was a bit torn when I realized that he didn't get that Simon was criticizing him last night by saying he was magnificent (or whatever word he chose) as a way of trying some new tactic to get people to vote him off. Thinking that maybe him being mean to Sanjaya wasn't working...that maybe people were doing it to spite him, so perhaps if he "complimented" him, it would be a reverse-psychology sort of deal and he'd be gone. Went RIGHT over Sanjaya's head. I believe he actually said to Simon, "Thaaaaank you! Welcome to the Universe of Sanjaya!" or some happy crap. And I couldn't decide if it made me feel for him MORE because he's clearly so young and naive and inexperienced that sarcasm hasn't even made it into his realm just yet, or if I was annoyed that he's so immature and unintelligent that sarcasm hasn't even made it into his realm just yet.
And then I watched tonight's show. And I got so angry when they announced that Gina was going home that I had to leave the room because I had nowhere to place that wild fury coursing through my veins and I felt myself starting to direct it in the general direction of my husband, because my mind decided (since he was the last person to giggle and clap at the Keep Sanjaya Movement propaganda) that he represents everything that caused tonight's results. And it wouldn't be good (for my marriage or for either of my eyes) to take it out on him.
So...Hi!
Dear Diary,
Tonight is exactly why I am so against the idea that the show should be brought down using Sanjaya. It's bad enough that they find it humorous to ruin a business, just for the hell of it. But the fact that each person who leaves before he does, as Gina did tonight (Gina, who has a really good voice and is now likely going to have to work at the freakin' GAP now, just so this idiocy can continue *choke, sob, wail*) is just WRONG. And don't try telling me that now she's free to get a contract of her own, because she's bound by the idol contracts first. And..and..it's just WRONG, pee-PUHL! Between Sanjaya being nowhere near the bottom three and HALEY the HO getting to stay simply because more and more fabric is removed from her costumes each week is just SAD. Haley is this generation's Paula, so desperate for approval that when she doesn't get it for talent, she clings and dresses slutty and outside her age and look where THAT ended up! Stoned and on this show!
Sigh. I don't even know how to convey my feelings on this effectively. I don't feel I've done it justice. It's just...he's a little kid, people. And I don't think the people with true talent should be punished and have their careers cut short just to play a game with the show and with the lives of these people. I don't care how Pollyanna I sound...I just so disagree with what they're doing. So, yanno, STOP IT.
mm-kay?
Love,
Gracie
