I don’t think the rules say anything about being pro or amateur. Several of the contestants (Taylor Hicks, Daughtry, Baley Brown) had personal websites and cd’s for sale prior to appearing on AI. I think the only rule is that the contestant cannot currently be under contract.
Melinda just happens to be the best of the professional contestants. Remeber Brandon Rodgers was also a back up singer this year, but he finished 12th. For Fox and AI this is entertainment, reality tv, ratings and money. It’s just wrapped up to look like a singing competition. They’ve even got Ryan and Simon sounding like a couple of WWE RAW contestants.

[quote post="603"]Alright DJ – on my screen there are 6 black boxes with nothing – I just ass-u-med they were pictures. Silly Old Lady! Anyway – have a great evening. Keep on Idoling![/quote]

ah, i got ya know. those were all the performance videos from last night. you must not have the plugin installed on your browser to view them. I am actually surprised it didn’t ask you if you wanted to install it or given a place to do it somewhere. I am not sure which plugins you need so I am unable to help you there. anyone have any idea?

[quote comment="19175"]What are the chances of everyone being shocked by Sanjaya actually going home? I think it should happen – but not likely darn it! I think Jordin has done the most improving of all of them and agree with Simon that she could actually take it. Melinda is already a pro and really should not be in this competition. Blake is awesome also – he has a different style from all the rest. Lakisha has lost alot of “ground” and I believe she will head home in a few weeks. Phil did awesome last night, but I don’t know if it was enough to keep him from the bottom three, but I don’t think he will be leaving tonite. My prediction is Chris, Sanjaya and Lakisha in the bottom three with Chris saying Bye-bye. Most of us know/think it should be Sanjaya – I think he is all in for a few more weeks![/quote]
somebody actually agrees with me on melinda..this is a show for the best amateur performers and finding them….. melinda has her foot already in the door of making a major recording contract being a backup singer for famous people…. hello…. not fair when shes there and already made it pretty much and up against great “undiscovered”talent who doesnt have their foot in with famous people just yet….. ugh…. im mad at that. great amateurs who need to be discovered…. melinda …go home…

I was glad to see Simon tell Sanjaya how horrible he is. Tell it like it is like he told several that are now gone. He shouldn’t have made the top 24. I agree that Melinda should not be in this since she is a professional singer. Sanjaya should be gone, but I predict it will be Phil.

Did you have your ears pierced and it shattered an ear drum? Mowgli cannot sing at this point. What he needs is a vocal coach and a couple of years of real experience. He is just not ready for the big show.

SIMI –
What does being an Indian have to do with a singing contest? Who cares what race and or skin color? Are you prejudice? Must be – who would come up with a statement like that if they weren’t. Maybe most don’t like him because he has stayed on while others that can actually sing have gone home!! How dare you tell us why we don’t like him. My dear, he simply can’t sing – has nothing to do with him being an Indian. Have a Great Day – and remember God made us all, the same and yet different – Jesus Christ died for all of mankind!
