Yes, I'm coming out of the closet...

I've been hiding a secret from my dear blogging BFF's for far too long. It's time to come clean, I've been an American Idol fan for the past 3 seasons. I'd rush home from work on Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons and precisely at 7:00 pm I would plop my round rump down in front of the tube to waste 1-2 hours of my life cheering on my favorite Idol while also judging them and hoping my opinion correlated with Simon.
This year was no exception as the season has just started. The only problem is that Nate and I have decided to stop watching TV on the weekdays (tear). So in the few short weeks I have enjoyed season 8 I have already picked my favorite.
She's one weird little thing, in fact, I'm sure she's crazy, but man can she belt it out like none other. And she's only 16, may I present Allison Iraheta:

i don't like idol, but mom was here and she's a fan, so we watched it. now i have a platonic woman-crush on this girl!

Sorry to everyone that watches Idol but i have never been a big fan of it. i think instead of oldies, rock and roll, or even country, they should have opera or classical pieces that really challenge the singer and have professional music professers judge and not people who think they know something about music.i do have to say that i love simon he tells people the truth.

Haley, Ben has seen Joseph (not Denzer) from the old student ward a couple of times in the last little bit and he keeps asking about you and says that you were always so nice to him. Just thought you would like to know.

Wow - what a voice! I'm one of those people who desperately wish I could sing, but sound absolutely horrible when I do, so I usually just mouth the hymns in church and call it good. :) When this girl belts out the chorus, it makes me yearn to sing great. I will be watching for her from now on - and she's only 16?! It's not even fair...

I am a fan of American Idol. I watch it almost religiously and then cuss (kidding) and discuss the previous night's episode with my co-workers. Sadly, every one I root for eventually loses. Allison is amazing.I agree so she probably won't win. Sorry, that is my lot in life. little tear running down my cheek.
