Please forgive me

Ryan's giving out the "Golden Idol" awards next. The screen behind him says 2nd annual, but I don't remember this from last year - maybe I fast-forwarded through it.

The Best Presentation award goes to Margaret Fowler, the woman who showed up all dressed in yellow, who was way too old to be on the show, and who hid her contestant number under her shirt. In my opinion, X-Centric was robbed - he was hilarious. He better get some other award.

Oh my goodness - she plants a big old kiss on Ryan - it was actually uncomfortable to watch and then goes up to the pdium and puts on a bimbo act like I've never seen before. She reads a poem - have to admit, I'm really not listening to it. She reached my limit on annoying before she hit the stage, so I'm just ready to see her go already.

I'm not sure if there will be other awards, but Ryan's moved on to something else for now. The top six guys sing some arrangement by David Thomas and Sanjaya is sounding so good - I wish he had sung like this during his time on the show. Chris Richardson still annoys me - Chris Sligh is still awesome. Phil Stacey sounds great - and it looks like the Navy has allowed him to tour this summer. Smokey Robinson comes out and sings his song, "Being With You."

I got reamed big-time by Dorothy, my friend and most favorite person at work, when I commented about Barry Gibb and his Botox problems, so I'm almost afraid to say this, but it wouldn't be honest to keep it in. Smokey Robinson's eyebrows and forehead are frozen - they're not moving at all - now if that's not Botox, then I don't know what is. At least his teeth are not interfering with his performance the way Barry's did. (I know, Dorothy. You're gonna kill me. We'll discuss it tomorrow)

Oh how fun - they're doing "Tears of a Clown." I do enjoy this song and Smokey's eyebrows twitched just a smidgeon. Maybe the Botox is wearing off...

I laughed like a fool at your Smokey/Botox comment -- I was thinking the same thing! At least Smokey can sing well with the Botox -- Barry is having issues with it, apparently.

Sanjaya sounded great and Chris annoys you? Yeah, alright.

It was funny to see how desperate the guys were to be noticed for the few seconds they had camera face time.

I seriously doubt that Smokey uses botox. I've seen him in person..talked to him, in fact. He's 67 and looks fantastic.

He's the most gracious and humble guy considering all the success and influence he's had in the music industry. By the way, those songs were three of his hits.. "Tears of a Clown", "Being With You" and "Oo Baby Baby". Written by him also, by the way.

If you have the chance to hear him in concert, don't miss it. He's a legend.
