My long stretch without internet motivated me to revamp my site. But you can only do so much offline short of turing my pc into a server.  Anyway I’m like…..60% complete.  The section that is causing me the most problems is the graphics section. And wordpress didn’t make it any easier for me either. This new version looks awesome on the inside, but making themes is hard! I spent days trying to get it to look decent.  It really doesn’t like table designs, so I have to go back and re-design two of my planned 5 skins.

I have a whole lot of sparkling new stuff to add, and I have to make sure I update on Lunaire as well. I have a skin planned for the site as soon as I finish up here so watch for it ^^.

This week after all the harsh ‘fan’ critique, the girls were a bit down as far as their spirits were concerned. When the songs were handed out, I cringed along with the girls when they said ‘Heart of Glass by Blondie’. That is like the worse song to sing, because it’s like a signature song for her and the pitch is aweful. My heart went out to Cassandra because I knew she wouldn’t be able to hit those notes, it was so insane.

While I don’t condone ganging up on someone, I honestly think that Jena needed to step it up as far as dancing is concerned. She is too laid back as far as I’m concerned. I mean this week is disco and if you’ve ever seen anything about the 70s then you’d know it’s all about energy and excitement and she’s just not bringing it.

Chrystina is seriously pissing me off. She’s acting bratty just because she was in the bottom two? Instead of learning and taking their words to heart and trying better, she’s acting all annoyed about it. When she told robin that she felt she didn’t deserve to be in the bottom two, I was super annoyed. I was also happy when they took her down a peg because seriously, if she could have made it on her own and with the skills she has now, she would have been famous already so she really needs to just take the criticism.

On makeover day, I personally was excited for all the girls. It brought back memories of the last makeover day on ‘Search for the next Doll’. I was a bit taken back when Jamie said she looked like a white girl on makeover day. I honestly didn’t know she was latino until she said so, and personally I think she looked really good.

This week their challenge was to walk and own the red carpet and honestly all the girls were hot. Jena was dead on the red carpet. I understand she’s a more laid back kind of girl but she looked like she just wanted to go home. Jamie is a complainer. Although I thought she’d stink up the carpet, she was surprisingly good. Natalie was the same as always. Good but nothing different about her. I was looking for something that popped but naw, it didn’t happen. I think Cassandra was the worst on the carpet. She was just bland for me, like she was going through the motions.

During rehersals, I was so happy when they started pushing the weak ones like Jamie and Chrystina because they’re talented and they need to show it.

Group one’s (charley, nichole and natalie) performance was amazing. They sang ‘Take Your Time (Do It Right)’ by SOS Band and they really popped. Plus they were on rollerskates which kicked butt. The really were in sync although I think that Nichole was a bit slow on the vocals in the beginning.

Group two ( Jamie, Ilisa, Cassandra) performed ‘Heart of Glass’ by Blondie. Remember what I said about it being a terrible song? Well the expressions on the judges faces said it all. The vocals stunk and I think Ilisa did the best out of all of them. When Jamie started crying, I wanted to smack her. She looks amazing but she is just so unhappy that it hurt the performance. They were obviously on the elimination block tonight.

When group three (Chrystina, Tiffanie, Jenna, Carrie) sand ‘Dim all the lights’ By Donna Summer, I really felt the song. Tiffanie just brought the energy that the others didn’t have and amazingly Christina did well also. I thought she would be stale tonight and she definitely wasn’t.

When they announced the bottom two, Jamie and Cassandra, I was rooting for Cassandra. This was definately not her night or her song, and I blame the vocal coach for that. He really needed to help her bring it down to her range and he didn’t. As we saw last season, this was a case of ‘you can’t make a dancer a singer’ and unfortunately that was what did her in. I thought her dancing was spot on. She has amazing legs and moves and she worked it.
