American Idol 2007

Who Should the Winner Be?

Well, the American Idol 2007 season is off and running and we are already down to the top eleven. We have a great group of idols this year, including Blake Lewis, our beat-boxing, dance grooving idol from Washington; our little-miss-big-voice, Melinda Doolittle, from Tennessee; and our rocker-girl, Gina Glocksen from Illinois, who knows how to party like a "Glock-star". These are my favorite idols so far. I think that Blake has a way of expressing himself in a very modern way, and he also has an amazing voice. He knows how to dance, and he can put on a great show. His incorporation of this beat-boxing, I think, adds a nice flavor to his style of music. Melinda is the little black package full of soul. She knows how to control her voice so that she can make a good song sound great! She seems to be a very humble person by nature and I believe that she has some shyness to her that is actually working out in her favor as America begins to see her come out of her box. That is why I call her "little-miss-big-voice". And Gina. Gina I think has a great personally that really comes across nicely on the screen. She seems like she is a very personable person, and she also has that edge about her. She is a popped-up, female version of last year's Chris Daughtry, I think, but that could be just because I think she is the only contestant that could actually pull off a rock song this season.
