    America's Got Talent

    So rumor has it that apparently we have stumbled upon America's answer to Britain's Susan Boyle!!

    Personally, though, my favorite of this week were the Platt Brothers. They're quirky, they're funny, but all in all, they put on a great show.

    Any other faves this week?

    I saw the person they are claiming to be America's Susan Boyle and she doesn't even come close. She had a good voice and her story is inspirational.

    Never argue with an idiot. It will bring you down to his level and he’ll win because of experience.

    I disagree Kelsey. I think this woman was amazing..she gave me chills where Susan did not.

    I soooo agree with you. I get so frustrated when they put though acts that arent even very talented. And that you could NOT watch for an hour in VEGAS!!! And the little red headed girl was cute but could NOT sing very well!!
    I'm hoping that is What Simon is calling about. Maybe he wants HER to be put in...........?????

    Paula Abdul Leaving 'American Idol'

    Some of the acts I can't believe got in. That red headed girl for one....I can't stand her. Another one is the woman w/the "free spanking". She bored me to tears.

    I haven't been online for MONTHS, so please excuse me for being late in posting this....

    but can someone tell me what the heck the purpose was for sending everyone to Las Vegas?? All those people packed up their bags, paid for airfare, and flew to Vegas, only to be told they weren't going to Hollywood??
    WTH? I would have at least thought they would have performed again. I thought that whole trip was a waste of time and money.

    And what is the point NOW for the judges to have the buzzers? Their part is OVER.......lay off the damn buzzer!! LOL. My GOD I was ready to knock Peirce upside the head the other night for buzzing so many people.

    I'd like to know why the red headed girl got through, but that little 7 yr old Hawaiian girl didn't? She had one heck of a voice.

    I'm glad those 3, blonde, violin playing bimbos didn't get any further. They never should have made it as far as they did.

    I dont think the contestants paid for anything actually.Although I may be wrong.

    I agree, I myself would assume the show paid the way of the contestants to LV but still a waste and to get those peoples hopes up....some that never should have had their hopes up in the first place.

    My neighbor from across the street is Terry Fator's aunt last years winner on AGT. She told me that AGT paid for everything from hotel, food, airfair. There are stipulations on the contract that you sign....if you're the winner you have to move yourself to LV, AGT pays for temp. lodging, transportation, food til you find somewhere to live if that's where you decide to move to. If not, it's on the contestant that wins.

    Just pointing to Terry won two years ago. Last year it was that big black guy that sang opera. Cannot for the life of me think of his name.
    There is really NO one standing out for me to give me a reason to want to vote.
    I'm disappointed with acts they have chosen to put thru and ones they did NOT!
