Atlanta brought us Jermaine Sellers, Mallorie Haley, Bryan Walker, and Skii Bo Ski in American Idol Season 9 Episode 2. Oh, and we also got treated to a song called Pants on the Ground. Tonight we go to Chicago with guest judge Shania Twain.
Katelyn Epperly has decided to try out for Idol following her parents’ divorce. She sings Syrup & Honey by Duffy. The judges see potential.
Amy Lang is crushing on Ryan, the first celebrity she ever had an inappropriate dream about. She sings Dr. Feelgood by Aretha Franklin. The judges can’t take her and her boob shaking seriously.
Charity Vance practices performing in her parents’ house/salon. She sings Summertime. Randy liked the interesting sound. Simon thought that was great.
Angela Martin is back for her third and final time. The last two times she was cut in Hollywood, dropping out last year due to a traffic warrant. It goes without saying she will be heading to Hollywood again.
Curley Newbern sings This Woman’s Work by Maxwell. Simon asks if a lot of animals turn up outside his house when he sings.
Brian Krause believes he was in the army in Korea. What the bloody hell is this? He swears on his mother’s life that the high pitched voice and tip toeing through the tulips is really him. His plan now is to slip into a warm bubble bath and relax.
Harold Davis has spirit, soul, and everything he needs to be the greatest. Except talent.
John Park sings I Love You More Than You’ll Ever Know. Shania tells him he has a beautiful bottom end and nice lips. What program am I watching again? The other judges agree with her and put him through to Hollywood.
Paige Dechausse went into anaphylactic shock when she was 15 due to her asthma. The doctors gave her a 30% chance of surviving, and she’d probably have brain damage if she did. She sings A Change Is Gonna Come by Sam Cook. Simon thought it was a little bit indulgent and says no. Now that’s just silly. The other three say yes, although they’re not entirely convinced.
Justin Ray, Keith Semple, and Marcus Jones finish off the night with golden tickets.
Stay tuned to dingoRUE for another live recap of American Idol 9 Episode 4, which airs Wednesday at 8/7c on Fox.
