LAST TWO - LEE AND CRYSTAL
I know I've been banging on and on about American Idol. Even when its been a tad boring I have stuck with it. Now the last week is dawning. Wednesday and Thursday will be the last episodes with only two contestants remaining, Lee and Crystal.
SIMON COWELL
This is good news for Lesley's List because it means that out of the 16 I selected as possibilities to win, I still have one in the final. Crystal Bowersox made it onto my list during the auditions round and there she is, in the final. So I win a million dollars? I reckon I am tops at picking out the real talent and so should take over from Simon Cowell as top mean British judge when he stops doing Idol next year. Season Ten could be Randy, Ellen, Kara and Lesley. I wonder how much they pay?
WHEN IDOL IS OVER WATCH THE WORLD CUP 2010
But what worries me is - what am I going to do when Idol finishes? Do you think there are counselling sessions available for viewers who suffer withdrawal symptoms? People who find themselves wandering around with stunned expressions, unable to concentrate on anything because their weekly routine has become so entrenched with America Idol they don't know where to turn once its over. Such people will require post traumatic Americal Idol group counselling sessions where everyone can thrap on about their favourite, why there will never be another Adam Lambert and where on earth is Kriss Allen anyway, they can all practice their favourite judge impression and perhaps even have group sessions involving standing up clapping and yelling You had a moment dawg" or such like.
Never fear. I have a suggestion to all Idol addicts - watch the World Cup.
ENGLAND SUPPORT FOR EVER
I never thought I would find myself saying this because watching football is definitely not my thing. But something happens to me every four years. I turn into a football fan and I have even considered buying myself a polyester top emblazoned in garish logos. Obviously I resisted that. I am patriotic though. I can't deny it. I support England. I really really want them to win. My football fan hormones are about to kick in. You know the ones that convince you that England are the best team ever, it's almost like having a child that can do no wrong. No one can say anything negative about England that I believe and I become blinkered and dogmatic about their skill.
SHORT MEMORY
I have already forgotten about the last time when I was so excited about their every game when my hopes were dashed when they lost and got knocked out. The world cup is about to start again so the slate is clean. I await their success with an open heart and I believe they will win. Engerland, Engerland, Engerland nah nah.
