His appeal was not great during Idol for me, but it is just circling in the toilet ever so more....Ugh....

I WENT TO THE SHOW! IT WAS INCREDIBLE!! ALL THE PERFORMANCES IN PERSON WERE INCREDIBLE! ASK ANY QUESTIONS! What performances did the crowd love? What performances did the crowd hate? What was the reaction when J-Lo fell on her ass?

You can tell the make-out session with the keyboardist wasn't expected. They cut out to a far-away view a second after. I hope he gets a lot of backlash.

My least favorite was Adam (never heard the song and him for a closer was weird to me). Im watching them on TV right now and honestly, in person they all sounded better. The bands were so good. Kelly sounded the best probably out of everyone.

What was the reaction when J-Lo fell on her ass? The energy with Jay Z and Alicia was off the hook. Whitney had everyone standing for a long time. Everyone was confused when that country band won the t mobile text. People seemed excited for Rihanna then kind of let down. J-Lo was alright, I noticed she fell but no one was like OUCH!

I thought Kelly and GaGa were the best, followed by Carrie, Whitney, and Jay/Alicia. The rest were just pure shit, IMO. Adam and Em/50 especially.

OMG, poor Janet :( She seems heavy and not as flexible as before, with tight robotic moves. :( I didn't watch the show (except for Alicia and Jay-Z's performance), but the way everyone is describing Janet's performance, clearly the girl is never going to be the same again. Michael's death obviously hit her very hard. In the performance she had before this one (I forgot which show it was), she did not look happy at all. If she was on the decline before June 25, his death may very well have accelerated it, and quite probably to a fever-pitch. Is she still with Jermaine Dupri?

Good... I was afraid Feminem would win. Feminem is soo irrelivant all his success this year was from his core fanbase, all his singles flopped. Jay deserves this, but he needs to STFU about New York, nobody gives a f**k Jay! really? he had a Hot 100 #1 record (it set the record for biggest 1st week sales, only to be lost to Right Round the following weeK), and a #9 on the Hot 100 as well. He may not be as "relevant" at radio, but he still sold more than Jay z 1st week, AND overall. boom roasted. Nope. The singles were flops. Debuted big then crashed down and quickly forgotten. This is Eminem's Here I Stand. HIS outsold Ne-Yo and Chris Brown worldwide. Does that mean his era was mroe successful than theirs? Consistent sales > Big first week If we look at all the rappers since... 2008, Feminem is less relevant than Kanye, T.I. Lil Wayne, and Jay-Z. If it serves any comfort, he is DEFINITELY more relevant than 50 C*nt, lol. :)

They showed GaGa and I missed her?? Yeah, you were probably just too busy being a prick. OMG Coming from a Katherine McFlop fan? Funny. There's only been like 4 performances. By the end of the night it will be 'Kelly who?' Please. Back to the Leona thread for you. I know this was like 20+ pages ago... but at this coming from a Leona s.tan! at Carrie. She looks bored as hell! someone gif me please!

oy don't get me started on how jacked up the categories are...POP should have gone to Gaga, she was the closest thing to pop/rock in that category. I really hope they re-evaluate their categories in the future. Don't count on it. They've been playing fast and loose with the categories for decades.

I'm going to blow my brains out if I see Taylor Swift one more time. I can't believe she won the pop AND country categories. Ridiculous. Well.... Faith Hill won in 2001 Female Pop (beating Britney, Christina and Celine), and also won Female Country and Country Album....so Taylor is not the first artist to win both in pop and country categories But she probably is the first to win Pop, Country AND AC at the same time :o

If it serves any comfort, he is DEFINITELY more relevant than 50 C*nt, lol. :) to the Usher/Chris Brown/Ne-yo question: YES. if he sold more in the US (which he did in the ne-yo comparison) and Worldwide (i think CB might have got Usher on this one though...) then he is 100% more relevant then them. Also, it was Usher's management's (or whoever the f*ck thought "moving mountains" would be a good idea for a single) fault for the lack of consistency with that album. another question: what is "relevant"? Biggest opening week of ANY artist in 2009? check. #1 single? check. Highest selling rap album of 2009? check. Undisputed best verse on a #1 rap/#2 hip hop & r&b song (forever)? check. album sales consistency? check (despite what you say, he has sold nearly 1.5 mil, after starting out with 600k. most artists get about double their opening week when it is all said and done, unless, of course, they have consistency). Huge radio airplay? NOPE. so, he has been huge everywhere, except on radio airplay. so, im assuming that is what you define as relevant. in other words, Jordin Sparks is more relevant than Whitney Houston because, you know, Whitney didn't have a big radio hit.

Oh, but i do agree with you that consistency > big 1st week (e.g. lady gaga) by all means. but 1st week is HUGH to most artists. Also, yea, 50 cent, in terms of pure sales, is much less relevant than Em. But hey, he still has 300 million in assets, so he's doing ok for himself. :)

Jermaine's dream has finally come true. He's receiving an award with a standing ovation and he gets to flash a peace sign with his glitter glove, life is good...let him have his moment.

Adam Lambert Says Censorship of American Music Awards Song Would Be “Discrimination” 11/23/09, 1:29 am EST In approximately 30 minutes the West Coast will get a look at the American Music Awards performance that has everyone talking: Adam Lambert’s racy rendition of For Your Entertainment’s title track. When Lambert finished his song — complete with simulated oral sex with a male backup dancer and a passionate kiss with a male keyboardist — earlier tonight, fans hit the Internet to debate whether the American Idol runner-up’s first major televised performance since the Idol finale pushed the envelope too far. Lambert tells Rolling Stone he didn’t do anything female performers haven’t done on television already — and that if ABC cuts any part of his performance for the rebroadcast it will amount to “discrimination.” “It’s a shame because I think that there’s a double standard going on in the entertainment community right now,” Lambert tells RS backstage after the show at Los Angeles’ Nokia Theatre. “Female performers have been doing this for years — pushing the envelope about sexuality — and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out. We’re in 2009; it’s time to take risks, be a little more brave, time to open people’s eyes and if it offends them, then maybe I’m not for them. My goal was not to piss people off, it was to promote freedom of expression and artistic freedom.” If ABC opts not to broadcast several of the more risqué moments of “For Your Entertainment” in a few moments, “In a roundabout way it’s a form of discrimination because it is a double standard,” Lambert says. “They didn’t censor Britney and Madonna macking onstage did they? But yet two men kissing they’ll censor?” The famous Video Music Awards moment Lambert is referring to went down on cable television — on MTV, of course — rather than network television. www.rollingstone.com/rockdaily/index.php/2009/11/23/adam-lambert-says-censorship-of-american-music-awards-song-would-be-discrimination/

If they censored J.Lo they're definitely going to censor him, it's going to air in a couple on the west coast. This is going to be made into a huge deal.
