Gwen Stefani And American Idol Top 10
March 27, 2007 | 2 Comments
Gwen Stefani was the coach tonight for the American Idol top 10 and although I like No Doubt, I’m not sure Gwen has quite the years of experience some of the other advice givers have had in the past.
Ms Stefani surprised me because she acts totally different then you would think after seeing some of her videos. She seems like a kind of mellow chick compared to the crazed spastic dancing she displays as a performer. And she has thin lips too? What’s up with that? I guess she wears lots of makeup in her pictures and videos.
But, this blog isn’t about Gwen, it’s about the American Idol contestants!
Here’s how the Idols put the show together tonight:
Lakisha Jones – Lakisha sang Donna Summers Let’s Dance and it was just okay for me. Don’t get me wrong, Lakisha will be in the top 3, but I don’t think this was her best choice in a song, but the judges liked her.
Chris Sligh – Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic was Chris’ choice for a song and it was kind of scary. Chris has a little trouble with the timing of songs. He seemed to be ahead of the beat most of the song and it was quite noticeable for Randy and Simon thought it was a mess. Chris can do much better.
Gina Glocksen – I think the name of her song was I’ll Stand By You and it sounded great! I like Gina because she just has that extra quality that makes for a stand-out from-the-crowd singer. I like her because she is different and she might surprise us and end up in the final.
Sanjaya Malakar – Could the guy get freakier with the hair thing? Sanjaya, dude, let’s get back to reality and just forget about the ponyhawk. His performance tonight will really make the teeny boppers vote for him for sure. No wonder Sanjaya is still on the show, he has an army of millions of 10-year-old girls voting for him.
Haley Scarnato – Cyndi Lauper’s tune True Colors was Haley’s choice and I didn’t think it was all that good. She showed us, finally, last week that she can sing, but this week was kind of a let down. I’m not sure she will make it through this one.
Phil Stacey – I haven’t been to kind to Phil because of his army of voters from the air purifier company of EcoQuest International, but I think Phil really did great this week. He sounded very close to another Sting with his rendition of Every Breath You Take. Way to go Phil! It was his best performance so far.
Melinda Doolittle – Melinda is the consummate professional. I might have already said that in a previous post, but I just can’t find words to describe how good Melinda really is. She give life to every song she sings with every gesture she makes. Wow!
Blake Lewis – Home Again was Blake’s choice for a song tonight and I didn’t think it was all that great compared to what we’ve heard from him so far. But, who am I, just some weenie writing the American Idol News.
Jordin Sparks – Hey Baby, is that the name of the song? It was a weird song for Jordin because it’s a hard song to do. But the judges liked her originality and ability to take risks and have them work out.
Chris Richardson – Don’t Speak is my favorite No Doubt song and I think Chris could have done a much better job. I just listened to it 10 times in a row while writing this post and it sure didn’t sound like No Doubt. The song rocks and Chris did it in his typical Boy Band style which didn’t do it justice for me.
Well, there you have the top 10 for American Idol. One will have to go home tomorrow night and my prediction is that it will be…Haley Scarnato. Of course I’m always wrong so it won’t really be her.
Who knows? Watch tomorrow and find out.

i think Chris Richardson did an ok job, and it might not sound right for you because like you said it’s your fav song by No Doubt, but he put an R&B twist on it, it’s different.
