My first American Idol post of the year!

Don't think that just because I haven't been posting about it yet doesn't mean that I haven't been watching it. Oh, I sure have. I just wanted to wait until we were down to the final 12 before I starting really getting into it.

That being said, I was thrilled the Brittnam twins are fugitives, I wasn't sad at all to see Ayla Brown go, as much as I love Kevin (cute kid as we call him), Gedeon deserved to stay in the competition, and Chris Daughtry gets 95% of my vote so far (Taylor, or spaz, is creeping onto my radar).

We have nicknames for almost all of the contestants left. Ace is Constantine guy, Paris is "the chick that reminds me of the mom from that 70's show", Will McKarr (gone now) was known as Bobby Brady, Kellie is Carrie Underwood chick, and Bucky is that guy that is kind of like Bo but not quite.

Anyway, I am enjoying this competition even more than last year as there seems to be a world of talent that just wasn't there last season (Scott Savol, Anthony Federov, etc). I think Chris has the best shot of winning so far because he already sounds exactly like the people that we already hear on the radio - Creed, Fuel, Nickelback, etc. Plus he's got tremendous stage presence. Plus, he's a family man and seems to have a decent "likability factor". I do think there are others that will give him a run for his money, so we'll see!!

I agree 100% on Chris being the winner. He is absolutley incredible, and astoundingly good looking! :) I have to say though, I did enjoy Ace's prince song... -Shannon
