American Idol is such a set up!

Yes, I admit it...I have always been a fan of American Idol. I think the only season I didn't watch was the first. Every year it seems the judges pick their favorite and of course that person goes to the end. This year though, it was more than obvious, that Adam was their favorite, and they were going to do whatever it takes to make him look like this Awesome singer, who has yet to be found. He almost always went at the end. The judges gawked over him, and he could never do wrong. I do think he is a good singer, and has good stage presence...however, he should...he plays in Wicked, and has been performing for a years now. I cant stand his screaming though...it irritates me. On Tuesday night, in his first song, he started off awesome, then all of the sudden went to his toungue sticking out screaming! That ruined the song. Oh yeah, and he never played an instrument....doesnt make him a bad singer, but the others showed all their talent!!! When you compare Adam to another contestant who has never sang in front of a large crowd and who has not had the opportunity yet to perform and get trained...Adam really isnt all that good. I personally think the Judges talked Adam up so much so that the viewers would get hooked on him. Didnt work for me. I must say that I have always like Kris...I honestly didnt think he would be in the finals. I was shocked when he was the first one placed in the finals. Either way, both Adam and Kris will have albums. So the real competition starts when their Cd's come out...who do you think will sell more?
