Hello blogger world!
This week, I will discuss the decision of the American Idol judges to save Casey this season and the importance/awesomeness of the online voting.
First of all, the top 11, once again, will be performing on tour this summer. Now, doesn't that alone make you wonder if it was set-up? Well, if that isn't enough, think about how there would be 5 girls and 5 guys if Casey did go home, so, obviously, the voting is rigged. BUT the fact is the voting is not technically rigged, but the producers do fix the lighting and increase sound to the audience's preference for the stars they think will bring in the most votes and money. Another point on how the save was obviously going to happen is how Ryan said "make sure you watch the whole show," so people would witness the ONLY save this season. Either way, I knew the judges would save Casey just because of their appreciation for his musical "talent," which I think is mostly raspy screaming most of the time. However, that tends to be a "style" nowadays, so whatever floats your boat....
Next and finally, I will mention my ideas on the online voting option this year. I think that's one of the best things Idol has done ever. It brings more votes in and attracts to the internet dorks who make up most of the population. It's also good for facebook since you only need a facebook account to vote, instead of an americanidol.com account. That seems strange, but works for both american idol and facebook, so it's obviously a good idea. Even though they don't need any more popularity, facebook and american idol have gained more attention with this online voting. I vote online now because it's honestly better than texting or calling. You don't get the "busy line" noise that come with calling or the fees that come with texting. You get to vote as much as you want and for free. Nice going, American Idol.
