May 25, 2007: American Idol Coronation
America celebri-spiraled this week over the coronation of Jordin Sparks as the new American Idol.
Will we celebri-spiral over her? So far, so good. I know nothing about her personal life except a couple of minor tidbits. But her talent came across in a big way. We'll see what happens.
The show itself was designed to wreak every emotion out of you; fear, excitement, projection of star-making fantasies, joy, sadness, sentiment...and then after every former Idol sang, and Tony Bennett as the old man graced the stage, out came Bette Midler, and the wind beneath her wings, to make sure we were drained of every tear.
Jordin is just 17. I hope she, and the people around her, are careful about not falling into the celebri-spiralish trappings of fame.

I think Jordin is lovely and talented and deserving...but was anyone else kind of bored this season? And I have to admit something kind of embarrassing...even though in years past I picked up on a little gay vibe from Simon, this year I kind of find him hot. Am I alone in this???
Yes
On both counts or just that I am the only one who finds Simon hot...because I agree that I am...
Simon is gross. As the girl in the relationship, I like to be the bitchier one.
Hmm...nicely put. Thanks for setting me straight...
