"Idol" Chit Chat: The Last Girl Standing
And that ladies and gentlemen is Syesha Mercado after Brooke White was ejected from “American Idol” last night.
The first shock of the night, the fact that Jason Castro was the first to be told he was safe. Those dreads and pretty eyes are really working for him, because if all was right with the “Idol” world, he’d have been taking his dreads on the road.
The next shock of the night was Ryan announcing that “the rumors” about Paula were all wrong. You know, those rumors that were running rampant after Paula critiqued a song that Jason didn’t sing last night. Like she was drunk, or on drugs, or this close to being fired. Ryan made it clear that Paula wasn’t going anywhere and just to seal the deal Randy and Simon gave her hugs and kisses.
Next to move to the safety couch or chair, or whatever kind of seating it was this week, was David Archuleta, then David Cook. So that left Syesha and Brooke, and after another twenty minutes of filler and Neil Diamond, Brooke was history.
The most emotion I’ve felt from her during the whole season was when she did her sing out of “I Am, I Said” while crying through most of it.
She was sweet, she was sunny—especially when singing “Here Comes The Sun”—and she’ll do very nicely as a traveling folk singer somewhere in the midwest. Good luck, Brooke.
