“Suh-PRIZE!”
ALLISON
Megan Joy
Jesse Langseth
Allison.. DUH.. Although the rumor is she has been picked up by them and will sign with Jive..(croses Fingers)
I can’t pick between Anoop and Matt.. or rather I refuse to… So I trust TPTB will see both of these guys as potential stars.. and sign them both..
From Semi’s I’d say Ricky Braddy.. He’s so talented.. and he has somewhat a built in fanbase.. I mean so many of us where outraged when he didn’t make it through.. so here’s hoping!
Ok, well signing Alison Iraheta is a no-brainer. Picking a second finalist is kinda tough for me. I was originally thinking Matt Giraud, because he’s talented and he could probably sell records. But I’m gonna go out on a HUGE limb here and say Megan Joy. Please, no one yell at me! I pick Megan because I think she has a very unique voice, and with the right direction, I think she could do well. On the show, she picked some bad songs, some that were out of her range. But if she sticks to what she’s capable of, she could be successful. Yes, it’s a risk, but you gotta take risks sometimes.
As for the semifinalists, I guess I would go with Ricky Braddy if I had to pick one of them.
Alison.
Matt Giraud.
JU’NOT JOYNER! (he was robbed!)
Allison, Anoop, and Felicia, most definitely, tho a case could also be made for Matt G, Mishavonna, and Jesse.
Allison and Anoop. Felicia Barton.
Anoop. That’s it.
I agree with Allison and Anoop. I can’t remember the semifinalists well enough to have an opinion
After listening to the Mishavonna song, I don’t think she’s so great – quite average, really. My semifinalist would be Felicia Barton. My two finalists are definitely Allison, and probably Matt. I don’t think anyone has mentioned Gokey. I’m not surprised; he really stinks.
Matt and Allison
Ju’Not Joyner (it still makes me mad that he wasn’t at least given another chance during the wild card round)
ANOOP!!! His voice records soooo beautifully.
Allison
Ricky Braddy

I’m a huge Adam fan, and I have to ask, were you paying attention? Slezak took a few week to truly come around, but he always thought Adam was extremely vocally gifted. By Mad World, he was agreeing that Adam was more talented than anyone on the show, with the possible exception of Allison, and he mentioned several times that he wanted an Adam/Allison final 2. Sure, he sometimes criticized Adam’s performances, but that’s his job. He clearly loves Allison, and he still criticized her performances sometimes.
Slezak was really complimentary to Kris, Adam, and Allison for most of the season, and they were clearly his favorites. I think you might want to go back and take a look at that.
Definitely Allison, I’m still rocking out to her tunes! Also, I love Matt’s easy style, so that’d be a great pick. Semi-finalist, most DEFINATELY Ricky Braddy. He was PHEnomenal.
Yoko, please don’t presume to speak for my “female reproductive organs.” Anoop is not so great, and most of my female, organ-bearing friends agree with me.
