American Idol 7 - Dallas Auditions
Sunday, January 20, 2008
Hello fellow AI fans. I'm back :) This time, I'll talk about the Dallas auditions.
I didn't get to start the first part of the audition. All I know was that it's a girl. Next person to perform is a guy, Paul Stafford. He is a park attendant. He told the judges he's a member of the American Rollercoaster Enthusiasts. I find it weird. I don't like rollercoasters. It scares me. He sang but then he didn't get in. The judges seemed to be nice to him.
Next is the singing waittress at a fondue restaurant. I thought she was good but she wasn't. Her name is Beth Maddocks.
Alaina Whitaker is next to audition. She kinda looks like Carrie Underwood but I think Carrie's prettier. She sang Stronger by Faith Hill. She's going to Hollywood.
Brother and sister Gregory and Miley Tobias auditioned. They didn't get the judges to talk to them.
Next one is a weird guy who never kissed a girl named Bruce. His dad gave him a key and used it as a necklace and his father wears a heart for the key. I think he is gay. Heehee. His voice is fine but the judges said no.
Pia "Zpia" Easley is a musician and model. She has a mini-mohawk. She's going to Hollywood.
Brandon Green is cute and he maybe cuter if he only stops collecting his fingernails. He is sooo gross!! Simon said no, Paula and Randy said yes. I hope he really stops collecting his fingernails.
Kayla Hatfield is a mother who got into a car wreck when she was 18. She was like in a coma for a week and when she woke up half of her face was gone. She lost one eye. She doesn't really have a good voice but she got in.
Kady Malloy is the last person to audition for the day. She did some vocal impressions like of Britney Spears. Simon calls her the best audition they've had so far. Obviously, she's going to Hollywood.
A lot of useless auditions for the day. 12 people made it through Hollywood.
Second day on Texas. Douglas Davidson is a weird guy who did some vocalizations first and was escorted to be out.
Next one is a newly wed who's married to a professional model. Angela Riley. She brought him in the audition. She really is energetic but she didn't pass for the three judges.
Kyle Ensley is a student politician who wants to be the Governor of Oklahoma one day. He reminds me of a certain guy from AI 4. He had a decent audition and surprised the judges. He's going to Hollywood.
Tammy Tuzinski is the slow girl. She kinda thinks slow. She sang a Celine Dion and it was bad.
Colton Swon is a musician who plays almost everything. Just kidding. :P He has a pretty good voice. He got the ticket.
Next one's a farmer - Drew Poppelreiter. A real farmer. He got the voice. Simon said no but the two said yes. He's in!
A rocker guy is next. He scared me! Why do rocker guys have to put eyeliner or was it guyliner?!!
A lot of people ruined Since U Been Gone. Maybe because Kelly's from Texas?
Nina Shaw is going to Hollywood, can't say much about her.
The last one! Finally!!!
The moment I saw this guy from the Dallas preview on the Philly auditions, I knew this is Filipino. Yup he is! He wore a white I can't describe it really with a silver cape. He walked into the room and the laughter's everywhere. He has the name Simon on his hat. I thought he gave his hat a name. He sang his own composition "We're Brothers Forever". He kept on singing and singing. Then Randy called on Ryan.. then later on Paula danced with them. The guy loves Simon. In the end, Simon gave him a hug. The guy's name is Renaldo Lapuz.
At the very end he gave a speech on why Simon's great that Simon gives chances to hopefuls.
20+ people are going to Hollywood.

Paul Marturano Stalker Lyrics
Thursday, January 17, 2008
Meet Paul Marturano. He's thirty-two years old from New Hope, PA and he sang a stalkerish song to Paula. That was his audition. On his performance he walked towards Paula getting closer and closer. That made Simon call the security.
Paul Marturano Stalker Lyrics
This is a love song that I wrote for Paula Abdul
There is this girl I know,
I follow her around;
She hasn't noticed me,
It really gets me down.
I broke into her house,
When she wasn't there;
Took off all my clothes,
and tried on her underwear.
I'm always thinking of her;
I really think that I love her.
I'm not much of a talker,
So I guess that I'll just stalk her.
And I'll stalk her.
If she were a doggie,
I would walk her;
If she were a blackboard,
I would chalk her;
If I were Colombo,
I'd Peter Falk her;
But I'm not,
So I'll just stalk her.
If she were up to bat with a guy on first;
I would balk her;
If she were Wilona from Good Times,
I'd be Jimmie Walker;
If she were a bathtub;
I would caulk her.

Milo Turk - No Sex Allowed Lyrics
Milo Turk is the 40-ish man who auditioned at American Idol in Philadelphia. He seems like my grandfather. :D
I found this stated in a website, "He has commited himself to a live of celibacy after he found out his girlfriend was not taking birth control."
Milo Turk composed No Sex Allowed at the American Idol judges.
No Sex Allowed Lyrics
Milo Turk
My girl comes around
She’s starts acting fresh
She starts playing with me
All she wants is sex
But take it from me
Hear what I say
I don’t need that
There’s a better way
So I promise my love
As she swings along
Cause sex is weak
And love is strong…Woooo
No sex allowed
I don’t wanna be part of your crowd
No sex allowedIf you don’t like it, get out of town
Milo Turk already performed his single at the Jimmy Kimmel Show.
Me wonders if Milo Turk is the next William Hung. Seems like he has a lot of contenders.

American Idol 7 - Philadelphia Auditions
Wednesday, January 16, 2008
Heard Ryan Seacrest's voice again. :P
Joey Catalino was the first one. He sang Maroon 5's Sunday Morning. Joey lost over 200 pounds. He's 19 years old by the way. He lost pounds but he really looks like he needs to gain wait. Got the golden ticket.
Second guy is Uka. I'm not sure the spelling of his name. He's from Egypt and he loves Bee Gees dearly. He speaks few English words. Example, Uka mentioned: "I want to get to know a girl from hair to nipple." Ooookaaaaaayyyyy. He sang a Bee Gees song but I forgot the title. Is it How Deep Is Your Love? Eliminated.
Next one's a girl, a backup singer for Taylor Hicks. Melanie Nyema. Sang Feel the Rain On Your Skin. Got the golden ticket.
James Lewis is a tour guide. He has a nice voice but he doesn't really know how to sing. Paula and Randy can't even stop laughing at him.
Junot Joyner, Jose Candelaria (sang a Spanish version of Unbreak my Heart) and Jonathan Baines are going to Hollywood.
Temptress Brown is 16 years old and a middleback(?) football player. Her mom is sick. She said she's doing the audition for herself and her mom. Guess this is one of the saddest stories for this audition leg. She sang Jennifer Hudson's And I Am Telling You. She cried like a child who lost her lollipop when the judges told her she's not going to Hollywood.
There's a guy who makes a good cricket noise. His name is Mark Hayes. He's handsome really but he doesn't know how to sing.
Udi I think is Indian. He made some dance moves from MC Hammer to whatever. He sang I Did It My Way. No ticket.
The auditioners sang I Love Rock n' Roll and showed some funny clips.
Next person is Alexis Cohen. She kinda looks like a boy to me. She's a rocker chick who lives with her mom in a one room apartment with her pets as she's taking Veterinary whatever. She sang a song the title I forgot. The judges said she would be great to be in a band. She can't accept she didn't get in so she threw in some curses to Simon.
The other sad story I'm telling is of Angela Martin's. She's the last auditioner of the day. She has a daughter with who is sick of something similar to Cerebral Palsy. She sang Signed Sealed Delivered I'm Yours. She got the Hollywood Ticket.
Alyse Wojiechowski's the first one. Didn't make it to Hollywood.
A forty old man named Milo came in to sing his song No Sex Allowed. The message of the song is apparently not to have sex.
Kristy Lee Cook is a pretty girl from Oregon. She trains horses and sells them to those who want it. She is in training for cage fighting. She sang Amazing Grace. Great voice. Got the ticket.
Ben Haar, the guy in a bikini with a cloak that made Paula and Simon terrified. Paula told him to wax his chest hair and he did. He came back with no chest hairs.
Paul Marturano wrote a song for Paula. Seems stalkerish.
Beth Stalker. Simon said she can't make it to the crowd. Randy and Paula sent her to Hollywood.
Chris Watson wore a suit. He sang Uncle Kracker's Follow Me. Got the ticket.
Christina Tolisano is a major Star Wars fan who wore a Leia to the auditions. She didn't get in and she was actually pretty upset saying all of those who picked were all the same and the show needs someone different. OOkaay.
The last singer from Philadelphia is Brooke White, a nanny of one year old twins in California. She said she has never seen a rated R movie and her husband doesn't watch those kind of movies also. She sang a song of Corinne Bailey Rae. She got in.
29 got to Hollywood.
