For lack of anything better to write about, I had to air a grievance of mine. This year’s American Idol has already gotten on my nerves. First of all, they let go some pretty decent talent this past week. And I can’t fathom 3 of the choices they let through, including: Tatiana Del Toro, the gay headband wearing crying guy Nathanial Marshall, and Nick Mitchell.
Most people who watch the show should be familiar with Tatiana. If not catch the clip here.
Talk about an annoying voice and laugh!
Then there’s the guy who cannot help crying. I think it’s because he’s in pain from wearing the double hairbands. Who wouldn’t cry from that? Or maybe it’s because his sweater vest shrunk too much and is too tight. You never really know.
And finally there’s Nick, aka Norman Gentle. This is the guy whom we’ve never really heard sing because he always drops into his Richard Simmons alter ego.
Remember Eggbert, aka Chicken Little? I’m getting that sensation all over again. Why??? These guys aren’t gonna cut it.

Yep. All 3 of them are high on my *NOT FAVORITE* list. Tatiana bugs the crap out of me. I won’t be able to stand her for very long. Hopefully nor will the judges.

Well, Simon already is annoyed by her. But I can’t believe they’re letting this go on like they are. Tatiana definitely disturbs me with her laughing, talking, crying, etc.
The Norman Gentle guy I just don’t get. He’s only done the improv singing routine when his turn has come up. How did he make it this far when it has always been a joke with him. Don’t get me wrong, he might be a great guy. He might have a great voice. But how do we know based on what we’ve seen so far?
