'American Idol': Top 12 women perform
Last night, the Top 12 guys got their turn, and tonight, the women are up on American Idol. Let's see how they do during 1960s week:
Host Ryan Seacrest notes that the flu has hit the finalists hard, but "the show must go on." He asks Simon how he feels when a contestant "spars" with him, and he says he likes it.
Then there's a montage of the girls making it to Hollywood.
Kristy Lee Cook of Selma, Ore., is first. She retells the story of selling her horse to afford a trip to Philly to audition. (Wasn't there a closer audition city?) One of her goals is to buy her horse back if she finds success on the show. She sings "Rescue Me." She does a decent job with it, I guess. The song is kind of an odd fit with her semi-twangy sound, though. Randy says he knows the pressure is crazy, but that it wasn't her best performance, and it was rough around the edges. Paula says she has a double-whammy of being sick (aha) and being the first one up. "Don't ever let that get in the way of your shine," she goes on. Simon says that in this section of the competition, "we see what you're really made of." He adds that we didn't see much from her and calls her performance "robotic." "It just wasn't anything to grab hold of."
