PREDICTION: EXPECT A BATTLE OF THE SISTAHS IN THE FINALE
If you had told me a couple of months ago that I'd be blogging about American Idol... hell, blogging about anything, I would have told you that you must be out your cotton pickin' mind. Well, it's like my grandmother use to say -
IF YOU CAN'T BEAT 'EM, JOIN 'EM.
The whole "Idol" phenomena really is nothing more than a pop cultural weapon of mass distraction. However, since their form of marketing and advertising rivals that of any local crack dealer, like much of America, I too have found myself caught up. Their game is slick - I'll give them that. They know how to hook you with just enough taste in the form of those wack preliminary auditions.
It got to a point where I was leaving my kid's PTA meetings early so I could get home in time to see this nonsense. But keeping it real, it was funny as hell!
So, now I find myself all up in the middle of the final ten. I know I've got better things to do, but since I can't quite kick this addiction, I might as well make it worthwhile for you family.
