What Decides The American Idol? (My Views)
I am gutted that 1 of my favourites, Matt Giraud is out of the competition. I knew he is not going to win it, but I had expected him to go after Allison Iraheta and Kris Allen. I don’t find them as good. There are a few factors I think decides the American Idol and here are the following~
1. Singing Ability – Of course lah right~. I think this is a strong 5, but I rate Kris the weakest.2. Likeability – Looks, background & attitude.
- Danny Gokey has always got that smile on his face. His story of his late wife is sad. Always persists to his decisions of song choice despite the judges’ disapproval but still willing to learn.
- Adam Lambert is cool looking and has great dress sense. Rumours of him being gay might have swayed some votes. His attitude is great though. Very humble
- Matt looks good when he covers his forehead~ he has an ugly mole on his forehead and his hair is not appealing too. But he looks like Justin Timberlake apart from that. He has great dress sense like Adam and I love him behind the piano. His background is not very publicized like Danny and Adam, just as the other 2 contestants I’m mentioning below. His attitude is good too; always willing to listen to the judges and change.
- Allison is not very attractive. She does not dress well either. Her attitude is ok though but she always seem to crack unfunny jokes~
- Kris is well-liked mainly for his looks. He has a wife, so man-crazy fans might be turned off~ And he’s quite humble too. Not as confident as Danny or Adam.
3. Fans of Idols who got kicked out – Who will they support? Are they neutrals or will they support someone who is the good friend of their favourite, OR support who is the least fiercest rival of their favourite so that their idol would win
4. Town Size – That’s the size of your fanbase regardless of the above factors. Sure, there’ll be minority who look at the above factors but usually they would support their own species~ Imagine if it’s China VS Singapore. I think a China William Hung would win a Singapore David Cook~
Just my 2 cents worth~
