I'm sorry but reality shows are pretty sick. It's so pointless, because you KNOW things aren't real. It's very degrading acting. My dad ((yes, my dad...)) said that Sponge Bob is more real then reality T.V... **watchs Sponge Bob**

In all honesty Amercian Idol is pretty real. People vote, and you really can't tweak that voting...e_e Sure, you coul argue that the show changes who wins and is booted off. However, the winner recives a recording contract. I doubt very much that Simon would let the show tamper with the results, therefore giving him someone that no one would listen to (and a dent in his checkbook worth about $1,000,000)Back on topic now. ^_~ Kimberley is hopefuly the one who wins, or at least gets second place. I've always thought it was a tie between her, Clay and Ruben. They are just such wonderful singers, and the best thing about them is that they are not the sterotypical popstar.... Julia and Kimberly (I think that's her name, she got through on Randy's vote with teh wild card) aree both annoying. I hate them both. Julia can't sing and has this godawful catty aura, and so does Kimberly (but she at least can sing). In england they change the votes all the time. This girl who could sing the best out of everyone never made it because she was black. You could tell they were changing it because if you phoned her number, it said you had voted for someone else.

Yes, I have heard rumors that Pop Idol wasn't being as fair as they should have been, but hopefully American Idol is sticking to the rulebook. As far as I have seen, they are. But really, that's just not fair... Last year, though, they didn't really do much security with the voting so that people could put in about 10,000 votes in with a single click of their uber-spiffy red laser mouse. I think that is why Nikki got so far...sorry, I just DID NOT like her...

Yeah, Nikki was really awful.... I mean, in comparison she is a pretty talented singer (based on just your average Joe), but in the Amercian Idol competition she was just...meh...

Tamyra and Christina were at least a million bajillion times better than her! I didn't like RJ, either, but he was also better than Nikki...not a million bajillion times, but still MUCH better. Nikki was just...ergh, AWFUL

RJ was appealing to the he's-so-cute-who-cares-if-he-can-sing boy band lovers. Nikki was appealing to those people who, like her, would like to believe they're rebels (when they're really just people with pink-- yes Nikki, pink, not red-- hair).
No, I didn't like either of them. As you guys said, sure, they're more talented than your average person off the street, but they shouldn't have gotten as far as they did.

*Feels really stupid cos American Idol isn't over here* American idol is based on Pop Idol that we had over here. I pray that AI is better than PI was, meheh. You heard our winner on AI, Will Young. Need I say anymore? (Second place wasn't very good either, the Baby faced stuttering Gareth gates. One of the worst singers I ever heard... Darius wasn't much better. Some of the girls were amazing, but all the screaming fangirls wanted cute boys ) And, Pop Idol was totally rigged. Polls online said that Gareth would win 65% to 35% for Will. But WILL WON!? Its not possible...
