Hey there! It's good to hear from you. I've missed your posts and talking to you. lol

Yes.. I have to admit I love the Johnny's. Especially close knit groups like Arashi and K8. I think they are so awesome!

Jin's hair.. I wasn't sure I liked it at first. I loved it blac. But, now I like it. It's suits him. He's so tan though! lol I'm so glad he's back. I was worried.

About AI.. I can't believe it. Jordin is good, but not as good as Melinda or Lakeisha. I really thought it would be those two.

Hiiiiii! :D

I've missed talking to you too. Have you been on msn lately? I seem to miss seeing you whenever I'm online :(

LOL, I've walked down the path of JE doom I'm afraid. BUT I'm keeping my fangirling to KAT-TUN, Eito and Arashi for now - it's tiring catching up with all 3 as it is ;)

I preferred Jin's hair black too but I guess he complements the rest of KAT-TUN now ;) I'm happy that he's back - I was on such a buzz on the day of his press conference!

The results really prove that you need more than sheer talent to make it to the final 2 :( It's happened in previous seasons, so no surprise really. But at least Melinda got fantastic exposure, so good on her!

I love how Eito is different from the rest of JE - they're probably not everyone's cup of tea, but they're sooooo entertaining to watch :D And their friendship = WIN.

Yah, it's tired fangirling one JE group let alone 2 ne? Have you watched cartoon KAT-TUN? It's pretty amusing :)

I don't know if they'll be at that level again, but they've seemed to move past the "cold war" phase (I hope!).

I was so bumped that Melinda is not there! there goes another AI final...to this day I think the one final I really is the Clay vs Ruben thing, and Carrie vs Bo coming in second...

if it's Melinda vs Jordin it would have been another classic!

I think I love eito more and more these days...can't wait for the new album!

I never got to watch Clay vs Ruben, but yah, that was like the closest fight in AI history no?

I still remember Bo's accapella performance. Beautiful. And something I have yet to see another AI contestant top (did Daughtry try that last season? Can't remember)

Eito is such love, I'm glad they're getting more and more popular now! The new album oughta be a blast :)

Clay vs Ruben wasn't only the closest in terms of votes, but even the judges can't make a decision because both are SO GOOD during the final! so so good that fans of the original Kelly vs Justin thought that THAT FINAL was s*** compared to Clay vs Ruben...Fantasia vs Diana couldn't top it...the closest like I said, would be Carrie vs Bo...

I'm actually glad that Melinda isn't there... I liked her, I really did, any maybe she was the best singer. But I don't really think that's what idol should be about. It should be about good singers who can do more than just sing. Over and over again all that we get is good singers. They're little more than that, and really.... an idol is supposed to entertain by singing bouncy pop songs and posing for pictures, not by being a good singer. So really, Blake fits that image more than any of the past winners ever have. It's nice to see something refreshing!!

I think they really should have called it something else if it's only going to be a singing competition you know? Because look at Japan, most of their idols can't even sing at all. (and that's the way that it should be!)

Hi! Can't believe it's been a year since I last met you in Tokyo. Time really flies no?

I was just discussing that at dinner actually, i.e. the fact that AI is nowadays more about discovering an entertainer rather than just a fantastic singer. So in that respect, it's truly no surprise that Melinda didn't make it. But it's good that she got the exposure she needed to open some doors. It'll be interesting to see where she goes from here on out no?

I'm rooting for Blake. I like Jordin, but it'll be interesting to see what happens should Blake wins. I agree that he's unique compared to the previous finalists, so yah, it'll be nice to see him make it :)

LOL, it's true that some j-idols are not the best of singers. SMAP's Nakai is a prime example! XD

Melinda definitely has a career in the bag. I mean, Chris was voted off 5th or 6th last year and he's more successful than most of the past winners even. <3 Still not sure why he didn't win the show!! (I heard Taylor isn't doing well. That's too bad). And even Kelly Pickler whom I think went before him (?) is doing awesome. I heard that she's acting. I'm really sad that she cut her hair, otherwise I'd still be rooting for her!! (I'm superficial.. but I liked her because she was sexy and now she looks more homely than sexy).

I hope that Blake wins, because Jordin is good, but she's just more of the same old thing. I'd reallly like to see more variety on the show! :x I wonder what happened to Chris (the funny one, the GOOD one). I loved him so much!
