One of my early faves in American Idol Season 9 is Siobhan Magnus. Siobhan’s full name is Siobhan Evelyn Magnus, of an Irish blood. She is 19 years old.

The American Idol Season 9 Top 24 were finally chosen!

The list are after the jump.

Kris Allen won American Idol Season 8, as not expected. It was Adam Lambert who was favored by the judges early on. Well, I’m glad the “underdog” won. But in fairness, I admire Lambert’s powerful voice. Actually, it was him I noticed first and thought would win the season, however, I was disappointed by his weird personality. Then I saw Kris Allen performed, I was fascinated by his simplicity (I like it when he wears plain v-neck shirt and jeans), his adorable smile and boyish charm made me one of his fans.

But wait girls, Kris Allen is already married! Kris Allen’s wife whose name is Katy Allen, is visible as an audience in almost all of his performances. The beautiful blonde is Kris’ long time girlfriend from highschool. They got married just last year, on the month of September. Hope they will not be affected by nasty rumors that would come their way as Kris Allen is staring a new journey ahead. Goodluck! :)

I was convinced that Adam Lambert would be the next American Idol when I watched him performed “Satisfaction”. I’m quite amazed by his vocals, and obviously he has the personality. But there’s something in him I thought quite bothering, but I can’t tell what. Until I saw his pictures dressed and fully made up- as a girl!

In an interview, when asked about these pictures, Adam answered something like: “Ï am what I am.” Tsk tsk. Is he really gay? In that case Paula Abdul will lose another target and swooning girls will not waste time with him anymore. Will his identity would drop him off the list?

David Cook garnered 56% of votes declaring him as the winner of American Idol Season 7! Here’s a video tribute for David Cook:

Cook’s fans didn’t let the judges declare Archuleta as the winner as he got only 44% of the votes. The American Idol top 12 performed “Get Ready“. After which, the two Davids sang a duet of “Hero“, promoting the new movie of Mike Myers: The Love Guru. While Syesha Mercado and Seal sang “Waiting For You“.Jason Castro sang “Hallelujah” and the American Idol finalists performed “Let the Good Times Roll” for the Ford music video. (more…)

Who will win on David vs. David night? The Judges apparently go for David Archuleta as he sung ”Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me” by Elton John; ”In This Moment,” by Ryan Gillmor; and ”Imagine,” by John Lennon. Simon said David A is the winner for the night. All little David needs now is more votes from his strong number of fans to be declared as the winner of American Idol Season 7.

However, David Cook has a growing fan base also. I want him to win actually. Admit it, David A is great but not versatile, I really find him boring.  Although, the songs of David C is not that quite appealing to me: ”I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For” by U2;
Dream Big” by Emily Shackelton ; and ‘‘The World I Know” by Collective Soul. Still, he showed his versatility by shifting from rock to mellow.

So who will you think will win? That’s what we have to find out on Wednesday night.

As expected, it is a David vs. David battle on American Idol Season 7. Syesha Mercado was voted off from the Top 3. Although Syesha can belt out higher tones, it is apparent that the two guys has more fans. Little girls definitely vote for their cutie pie David Archuleta while teens swoon over David Cook.

I’m rooting now for Cook because I find David Archuleta’s performances boring each week. And I think Archuleta’s Dad is pulling down his career rather than letting him come out of his shell.

David Cook sung Dare You to Move by Switchfoot on American Idol. It is one of the soundtracks of the movie A Walk to Remember. Here’s the video and lyrics:

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone’s here
Everyone’s here
Everybody’s watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?
What happens next?

David Cook sung Roberta Flack’s The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face. All the judges approved his arrangement on this song that Simon Cowell even considered it as his best performance ever. I still think Always Be My Baby is his best performance though. But I heard some negative issues regarding Cook. Some says he is just FAKE. He only acts charming and too good to be true on stage but in reality, he is otherwise. And he also claimed that he does all his song arrangements but that is just not true also. Can these be just distractions from other fans of the other top three? Anyway, here’s his performance on American Idol Top 3 night:

Lyrics of: First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

The first time ever I saw your face
I thought the sun rose in your eyes
And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave
To the dark and the empty skies, my love,
To the dark and the empty skies.

I heard that David Cook will sing Roberta Flock’s The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face tonight on American Idol. Like Mariah’s Always Be My Baby, David will add twist to this mellow song by making it into alternative, as his trademark.

Is he going to rock the audience tonight? I believe his performance on Mariah’s night is his best performance ever. I hope he will surpass that.
