Will wonders never cease! I have more in common with Prince than I'd imagined.

Other pairings of contestants and stars included Paris Bennett and Al Jarreau; McPhee and Meat Loaf; Chris Daughtry and Live; Elliott Yamin and Blige; Hicks and Toni Braxton, and the dozen finalists with Burt Bacharach and Dionne Warwick.

Prince was a surprise final performer, taking the stage for two songs, including "Satisfied" and without an "Idol" contestant alongside.


I can just imagine the negotiations... "Prince, you'll be doing a duet with Katharine McPee..."

"Nope"

"...what? It'll be great, she..."

"Ain't doin' it."

"...c'mon, just think of her as a young Sheena Easton..."

"Nope. I'm solo or I ain't doin' it."

I would have rather seen another group song by the kids than Prince.

But way to go Taylor! I actually did give a crap and I think the right one won. The rest with real talent have been well showcased, however, and they will do okay.

the kids? It's difficult to consider Taylor as one of "the kids." Taylor looks MUCH OLDER than my over 40-year-old grey-haired man.

American Idol? I don't think so. Given the results, it's more like the American Old-Looking Fartster Show.

Prince, Meatloaf, Bacharach, Warwicke ... the only mummy they didn't haul out was Tutankhamun and I actually care about his upcoming tour.

America has chosen. They walked along the vast cafeteria line of talent and picked the nice, safe, white bread with mayo.

What are you talking about? I find it quite comfortable under this rock.

However, I heard that Vito got a pool cue stuck up his rectal orifice as a reminder to abjure fenookiness. I shall watch this weeks episode of the Sopranos tonight.

Personally, I felt a wave of sadness when they announced Taylor got more votes than any American president. Maybe we need to restructure the election process to be like AI. Simon, Paula and Randy can critique the policies of those running and we can vote them off one by one until the last person standing gets the White House job.

Now THAT'S a great idea!!!

I heard on NPR yesterday that a politician in Arizona or Nevada is proposing that a million dollar random drawing be held for those that cote in national elections. He thought that might entice more people to vote. What a shame we have to bribe people to vote for their own interests, when they freely spend hours dialing to vote in the interest of a total stranger.

And vote as often as we like? Cool. But will that work even if I'm not a dead Democrat buried in Chicago?

Prince was a nice surprise. Almost made it worth watching.

When Elliott left the competition, I stopped giving a **** who won. I still say he can sing better than either of the two finalists.

Enjoyed last night! Sooo good! And I didn't really care who won but glad that it was Taylor -- he is such a great guy! I missed it if they told us but how close were the results??

May I say that you are demonstrating the total absence of a life. Not only are you watching a show that is about as appealing as Bowling with NASCAR drivers , but youre writing about it on a PBB.

My excuse is Im just goofing off while my newspaper dries out after the dog peed on it and I stuck it in the microwave.

Stuck it in the microwave, huh? The "it" refers to the paper, I hope; as I understand it, dogs don't react well to microwaving.
