    I have it on a good source that he doesn't. Also, my friend Anna and my friend Justin won't make it there, either.

    I'm holding out hope for Taylor V - I haven't heard the news on her yet!

    It's funny, because I know David and he thinks of himself as a solo artist, TRUST ME. I thought the song he chose showed off his voice just fine, the judges just wanted to give him a hard time so he wasn't flying by on the Osmond name.

    I've heard him on numerous solo recordings, and he's got a GREAT solo voice.

    I thought when I saw her last night, that she'd be a good one for a makeover. She and her brother had the same hairdo.

    The sad story about Rose was also very touching. That said, without the backstory, I thought she just squeaked by. Bare feet? blecch.

    'Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man of Mine' -- I agree Dabob2. Cute and vibrant personality. Voice was just okay.

    My wife and I both commented how 'white' Utah is -- didn't see too many minorities, either in the crowd shots or otherwise. Interesting, no?

    My wife and I watched it and commented on how they seemed to go out of their way to show a couple of minorities. You have no idea how white this place is :)

    That was funny seeing that "blast from the past" toward the end.

    There was a contestant from a town about 20 min. from me that got through, but they only showed him for about a second.

    I thought Simon was nice to call that girl's boss to get her job back.
