’ll be honest and say that between the two AMERICAN IDOL finalists, Blake Lewis and Jordin Sparks, I’ve been more entertained by Blake. Jordin’s obviously a better singer, but Blake has showmanship. If beatboxing annoys you, then you are already typing away a rant back. It’s just that Jordin seems like a synthetic amalgam of pop-singer tics and tricks, and since she is only 17 years old – as Admiral Randy reminds us every four minutes – one can hardly blame her for not having the life experience to relate to any of the power ballads her vocals are suited for. The real crime of this season was the highly-suspect ouster of Sanjaya Malakar a month ago. I tremble at the thought of Jordin losing to that off-key, faux hawk-wearing goofball. That would have been the single greatest moment in reality TV.
