A friend did some research on Big Mikes Parents....see below....
Cherie…I was reading your American Idol blog and noticed your comments on Big Mike’s lack of parents. See the mtv link below. He has reason to hate them…..

Teddy Bear takes a tumble....
I mean I am not surprised. I think Casey is a bit more likable by the female population, and probably most males J I always wonder though the back stories, I mean why no parents ever for Mike? Have they passed? Do they not talk? Did the wife tell them to take a hike? I just always wonder about these peeps that show up with “Friends” and leave their ma and paws behind. I would seriously disown my kids if they left me watching that crap on TV in my lazy boy back home.
Next I am glad that American Idol can admit their failures and invite Daughtry back on to perform even though he didn’t win. I mean seriously how did he not even make it to the final two is beyond me, I could listen to his voice over and over. I could not however look at this etch a sketch face for more than one performance. It’s not like he is bad looking but the chops and random dark facial hair with none on top just reminds me of dragging that fake metallic hair onto that face with the magnet pen.
Bon Jovi – YUMMY! Seriously getting better and better looking every year, I feel bad that the years are not treating Richie as kindly especially on the cranium. He had more back combing and hairspray trying to style that angel haired pasta than my graduating class in 1991. JBJ you can be my superman anytime!
Fantasia – Did seven years really pass and make me forget about that SUPER annoying helium voice? And why did a beavers’ tail land on her forehead last night?
That’s it folks hopefully we can watch Casey take a tumble next week. If all goes according to plan.

Final 4
First of all, the contestant vs. artist shirts was so stupid and lame! I enjoyed how Mike refused to take it. Mr. Foxx you had nothing going for you last night except a lot of over dramatic facial expressions, A for effort with the T-shirts, but just didn’t have the umph you were hoping for. I mean lets face it they are still contestants, give them a chance, I am sure no one handed you a shirt with “Homey D. Clown” on it and told you to wear it, and never advance in your career. I am just saying these kids will evolve into an artist just like you took off your clown nose and started in films.
Second of all why was Kara dressed like she was heading into Trump’s board room?
Third having all four contestants as guitar players paints an ugly picture for any future contestant who JUST sings.
Last night I didn’t enjoy anything except for the duet with Lee and Crystal. Can we just call both of them winners and require them to record together? They sounded awesome together and lucky they did, I think it saved Lee’s ass a bit last night.
Lee – didn’t sound good and it makes me worried – he deserves to be in that final with Crystal. He also deserves to have his jeans laundered at least one a month. Those things were baggy than Jared’s stomach skin post subway diet.
Mike – sang free willy theme song and again just okay for me. Sort of over him.
Casey – The Mrs. Robinson, was so contrived it was ridiculous….I couldn’t focus on the song because I can’t take my eyes off his ridiculously perfect spiral curls and wishing my hair dresser understood that spiral curl instead of the pube infested perm I received in high school.
Crystal – I mean come on she is just leaps and bounds beyond what everyone is bringing at this point and I am proud of her girl power at this point in the game!
Casey/Mike duet – yeah it was good, but would I re-watch it, probably not.
Mike to go home tonight

All about Harry.
Was last night a Harry Connick Jr. Variety show hour? I actually feared that Ryan was going to have to go grab a hooked cane and wrap it around his neck to pull him off that damn stage. I mean he sang, he talked with the crowd, he told jokes, he played piano, I mean don't get me wrong he was great at all of it, but come on you can only HOG the stage for so long.......
Do you think Ellen was super pissed that last night was men's suit/tux night and no one told her? I mean the one evening where she could have fashionably meshed one on one with these peeps and no one gave her the memo?? I saw her giving Crystal the evil eye and mouthing.....step off my suit and tie look Bi-atch....
I am home with a sweet spring time head cold so I am going to cut this short. Arron's departure, nope not mad it had to happen he has plenty o' time to get out there and "grow" into this business.....I don't worry about him, he and Clay Aiken will be doing Sonny and Cher renditions at the local county fairs before you know it!
I surprisingly am seeing eye to eye with America on the final four......Casey and Big Mike will hopefully take the next diggers and all will be right in the world.

Ol' Blue Eyes
I got to say I like me some Harry Conick Jr., I enjoyed his humor and his marketing ploy to get himself out and in front of millions of people yet once again, nicely played. So Sinatra, yes they are great songs and he was amazing…..let me repeat HE was amazing…I don’t know when others sing his songs it just becomes a little sleepy, he made those songs what they were because they were cutting edge and everyone wanted to hop aboard those baby blues, but when other pre pubescent kids sing them I gotta say just ho hum…….and borderline annoying. It’s like someone else trying to recreate Elvis, it just comes across as corny, he made them famous because he was the first to do it and it really can’t be replicated, so last night a bit sleepy for me. The only thing that kept me awake was another set of baby blues, Mr. Harry. He is cute, funny, but why the crooked face? It appears someone took a right hook to his left side jaw….did anyone notice how he would never stand with his left side to the camera and its because his face is crooked and I think I discovered it! Yeah me. I also liked how he actually participated in the show, not just some act sitting in the crowd clapping for his little protégés. Don’t get me wrong his advertising ploy was clearly noted, but so be it – I would do the same, you want my help, then help me…… Kudos Mr. Connick! Okay back to Sinatra – or his kids, and when I say kids I mean elderly woman who can barely stand up. WOW – did anyone catch that Simon only kissed the half way normal matronly one when he rec’d his hankie, he stayed clear of the Donatella Versace look a like – yikes – seriously put down the scalpel and walk away……walk away and age in a dignified manner.
Judges – I enjoyed Ellen’s banter with Harry…..funny. I did not like the poodle that was resting on Simon’s chest for all to see. I did enjoy the cluster confused, panicked look on Ellen’s face when you could tell that she liked Casey’s performance then Randy started off saying he hated it and you could see her mentally scrambling to change her tune and come up with something that she didn’t like either. Her novice showed last night. And what was with her cock a doodle do hair do last night?
Aaron – I didn’t appreciate the Mr. Roger’s comb over last night…..too nerdy and it showed how large his snoz is. Again really boring and no one wants to see a 16 year old TRY to have swagger. Hehhehm…..Justin Beiber. Still can’t latch onto this one.
Casey – I loved the friend calling him for a gig and enticing him with free food……. #1 what friend doesn’t watch TV…..no friend of mine…….#2 Really $50 bucks? I mean even if I never stepped foot on idol I think I might be insulted. The Saturday night fevered purple shirted Fabio was terrible, really shaky and hard to listen to. Also when did that astro turf beard come in?? I think it is buh bye for Mr. Goldilocks.
Crystal – Saucy little thing last night – loved the dress and she looked really good and randomly thinner. In one week what is your secret girl? And as good as she always sounds can we just leave the crack pipe roach clip at home just once? That isn’t too much to ask.
Big Mike – I think he has redeemed himself. Sounded great and looked the part. Casey should be punching a wall right about now.
Lee – There was a little too much man love going on between him and Harry last night. Andrew Garcia should worry that his BFF has been replaced. He sounded great and I think my sleepy little nugget is finally cracking out of his shell…..good thing since this gig is almost up! Also I have now officially had 5 people tell me that my husband looks like Lee D. I don’t necessarily see it, but others apparently do.
Can we just call it good and have Crystal and Lee compete in the Finale already?
Casey to go home…..

Shi-o-gone.....
So I didn’t have the most pleasurable viewing of AI last night – we had company and there was a lot of chitter chatter happening and I missed half the show. Am I shocked yeah a little, but honestly I don’t think she is our “winner” anyway so at this point in the game it was bound to happen soon. I did however agree with Casey and Mike being the other bottom two. So for the sake of being polite to my guests I don’t have too much to report, a bit shocked, but not mad.

Come and ride the Twain.....
As if Ellen didn't already try to over do that joke......but I couldn't help myself. Okay If I remember correctly I have already professed my love for Ms. Twain back when she was a guest judge in auditions. The woman is remarkable for a 45 year old woman she is aging along side the Demi Moore phenomenon and I agree with Crystal it is as if she has a golden glow to her....and then it makes me mad that 9 years her junior I sit typing on my laptop with toothpaste caked on my PMS "under grounder" zit and shoulder length hair that will refuse to grow....what is this woman's secret.....seriously she needs to get on the motivational speech tour circuit or at least a skin care line on QVC ....something sister we want in!
Kara's neck wear....you know what I was all set to rip her a new one with her random geological masterpiece wrapped around her neck, but as the show progressed I actually really enjoyed the mass of gemstones and purified rock that complimented her muted stylish shirt - I feel like she fired her stylist from last year, they probably they just lent her Paula's and that is why she had so many "incidents" last year, but with Paula's departure there is a new bobby trendy in town and I am not mad at their choices.
Lee - Sang "Still the one" - Now Shaina said start with just lyrics and piano, but he couldn't do it his fingers were mimicking playing but he really wasn't actually strumming. It was like telling someone to hold an ice cream cone but don't take a lick. Thought he sounded good it's more the type of voice I prefer, but I think he is finally finding a comfort zone, which is nice.
Big Mike - I think I am starting to realize that I just like this guy because he is cute, cuddly, & likable, not necessarily because he is an awesome singer. Don't get me wrong he has a great voice just not the voice I want to hear song after song or go purchase an entire R&B album of theatrical ballads, it's nice to listen to for a while but would I grab it for a long road trip in the car....nope. So I think I am fading away from the big guy.......I know not a popular choice but I am just trying to keep it real.
Casey - They liked you last night. I didn't. It was shaky and just okay for me. I was more focused on who had more spiral curls in their hair last night Shaina or Casey? Now come on Casey, there is no way that air drys like that there has to be a lot of hot curling iron rods assisting the flow.....there is just no way......I think he is easily forgettable and I am sure there is a Nickelback cover band waiting for his departure.
Crystal - I enjoy that she called out her baby daddy to "man up" Well at least I think it is the father? I mean at least I hope he is for fairy tale sakes. I agree with the judges It was fine but yeah a bit boring, the song didn't have umph....and I will have to disagree bigger is better when you are trying to WOW millions of swaying votes. Still a top runner not going anywhere - but I can guarantee they will put her in the bottom three tomorrow night for oohhs and ahhhs and then send her to safety....I can just see the editing department working on it now....
Aaron - they actually introduced him and I honestly forgot he was still in the competition, which is terrible because he really does have a great voice and sings for the most part flawlessly but man I just can't sink my teeth into it, there is no excitement or passion for him, I honestly don't care if he does well or not....why is he not likable for me? He is young, cute, humble, and shy? I don't know I don't even understand my choice not to like him but I don't.....
Siobhan - okay seriously I know she is the quirky loose cannon everyone can't wait for but how many times can she close the show.....it seriously seems like crystal or Siobhan are the last to perform more often than not. They did this with Adam too....go out on a high note, keep people watching - not sure but the pecking order doesn't seem to be even. I mean she gets Lasers, Casey gets a stool to sit on......They want her in this for as long as they can make her stay, because she draws intrigue......just like Adam did, but for different reasons of course. She is definitely a performer which I appreciate and I thought she sounded good last night but are people going to but up with this favoritism? I think they will. I think we will all continue to be puppets and listen to how the judges want to sway our votes each week. That is just how it goes.
I think Casey or Big Mike might go home.
