Pre-Final Rant

Rant #1 I’m listening to Rihanna’s “please Don’t Stop the Music” (I’ll admit it, I like/can easily tolerate Rihanna) and I’m thinking that of all the Rihanna songs the producers could have picked for Syesha last week – songs that would have been great for her and showed, in Simon’s words “what kind of commercial artist [she] could be” – they picked an absolutely dreadful song about penguins that nobody could sound good doing. (clearly a run-on sentence but I’m ranting) Anytime I hear a Rihanna song, I’m fuming.

Rant #2 (related to above) – the first negative words ever uttered by Paula about Syesha not doing well enough to make the finals; that’s so totally out of the realm of anything she’s ever said. Conspiracy to make it a David-David final? C’mon, Paula’s usual kiss of death statement is, “Well, you look fabulous tonight.” And that’s it.

Rant #3 (related to 1&2 above) – let’s be clear that this is not about my crush on Syesha (which continues unabated); she shouldn’t have finished this high anyway, which leads to . . .

Rant #4 – I’m just not into this final. While I like Rocker David a lot more than Weird Dad David, I don’t care who wins. I am just ready for it all to be over – and start again next year LOL. While I had fun with some of them (Chikeze, Brooke, Jason), I’m STILL mad the A’siah wasn’t in the Top Twelve. She may have been better than Syesha. And the final should have been between Carly and one of the Davids.
