American Idol, Auditions 8 (Last Night)

Halleluja!!!! Last night of auditions. WOO to the HOO!

- Amanda Shectman - I really like her voice, nice tone and modulation.

Was that blonde in the hide-the-ticket montage Rose from last year who I loved!?!! I WAS RIGHT!! IT'S ROSE!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY! Oh, I was hoping we'd see her again, hopefully she makes it all the way through. This is what I said about her last year after she was cut (due to annoying bikini girl):

I'm really bummed that stupid bikini girl likely helped in taking Rose Flack out. Yes, yes, she forgot the lyrics a bit and that was why, but dangit, I can't help but blame stupid Katrina. I know that Rose wasn't the best singer, but she made me FEEL something and I really liked her. Oh well.

Now it would have been nice had they show her sing tonight, but we know she, at least, made it to Hollywood.

- Rachel Hubbard - 16-year old with the good voice that showed some depth.

- Didi Benami - She's very pretty and she has a distinctive voice; I don't like it personally, but I could see them pushing her through.

- Aaron Kelly - He does have a good voice; I can see the tweens/teens liking him.

- Hope Johnson - She's okay, but based on Ryan's "THE BEST" and the judges' reaction obviously means she'll make it. I'm not quite sure why though.

WHEEE!! Hollywood! And Ellen!!! WOOHOO!!

I'm all aboard the Didi Benami train already because she reminded me of Brooke (looks-wise) and you know how much I adore Brooke, lol. I hope she makes it past Hollywood week.

I was very excited to see Rose Flack as well since she was a favorite of mine last season. Here's hoping she makes it past Hollywood week too.

Yay, Ellen!

I could see the looking-like Brooke comparison, but her voice reminded me of Megan Joy Corkrey and, well, you know how I felt about her.

I liked Megan during the audition process and Hollywood week but I stopped watching after the final 12 was set. I am aware that her voice wasn't all that and Didi's voice certainly reminds me of Megan's voice as well. Here's hoping she can sing better than Megan (I checked out her MySpace page but apparently the player has been disabled - there are no songs on the player) and that she's not as fragile as Brooke was. I want her to go far.

Watching Didi here in Hollywood, I like her voice a lot more.

Definitely MUCH improved and her voice doesn't remind me of Megan anymore (thank God). Loved her audition and Cyrstal Bowersox's audition (she was the last one who performed). Group auditions tomorrow look good.

Was Hope the "I want to be the first black female country singer?" If so, I kind of love her just for that -- even if her voice isn't great. :) I hope she does make it, because I'd LOVE to hear more black female country singers (heck, Darius Rucker had to cross over for them to get a decent black male one! :x )

I liked Didi, too, I think...the "Hey Jude" girl? She seemed genuine. :)

(Eeee, can't wait for your picks!!! Also must say: I LOVE THAT ICON :D )

No, Hope was the girl at the very end with the country twang in her voice. 16-year old, straight brown hair, etc.

I don't remember a 'Hey Jude' girl. Well, vaguely, but not if I liked or didn't. Hmm ...

It's one of only two Brooke icons I have left; I feel like a bad Brooke fan, but I had to keep one of my Brooke/Cook icons. I had to!
