American Idol Season Ten

I had the privilege of watching the finale of the show American Idol season 10.  It was last Wednesday 25th of May night time in the U.S, 26th of May in the morning in Manila. I came home early from work after I learned of the result of my training. I thought of watching the news because of the typhoon in the provinces. My sister lives in Bicol provinces where the typhoon was heading.

After watching the early news I waited a bit to see what would be the next program. I got lucky to watch the finale of American Idol season 10. At the upper left hand of my television it was flashing “live”. I am elated. I do not have a cable television. I was glad our local network had the show via satellite. Only, I had to endure the local television ads.

Scotty McCreery, 17 years old lad from Garner, North Carolina emerged as the winner. My congratulations to him!

Thia Megia, 16 years old Filipina contestant from Mountain House, California, made it to the top 11. She was eliminated 31st of March. She has a wonderful voice but the ballad style kind music did not favor the modern day fans. The judges even suggested she has to go outside the box. Thia, win or lose I am still your fan.

I love the music at the show. It made me relax a bit. I like the singing and the dancing performed by known artists like, Marc Anthony the real life spouse of Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce Knowles, Tom Jones, U2, and many more. The Spider Man stunt was amusing. I felt sorry for the Spiderman guy. He did not get a kiss from J.Lo. I love the sportsmanship shown by the rest of the contestants. Their voices combined together were fantastic.

I watched some of the American Idol's shows. When Thia was still in it, I thought she would make it to the final. I loved her beautiful voice. To me, she has a complete package as an entertainer.

@DS. Utomo - Welcome aboard. :) Thanks for the blog visit. I already visited the blog and left a comment in there too. @Balqis - I love Thia when she sang Colors of the Wind. I did not watch her sang it on American Idol. I just searched on it on You Tube. That song is one of my favorites.

@Multibrand - Hi Harry, I got lucky it was the finale I watched. The guest performers were superb!:)@Blogging Park - Welcome aboard!:) If you noticed I have not been writing too many post. I like the season 10 of American Idol. All of them I must say have star potentials. But there should only be one winner.

American Idol is one of my favorite shows. I loved Thia! I was watching right along with you, Jolly!

Jolly Princess said...

@sudhi- I seldom watch it. I had missed a lot of the elimination rounds. I got lucky to chance upon the finale. @cLai ♥- Scotty is one of my favorite along with Thia and Pia Toscano. I love the way he plays the guitar. @Jill Wellington - Wow! Just think of us watching the show at the same time is fantastic!Thia has the talent and good looks. But American Idol is not meant for her.I am happy though she qualified for the tour.
