Another American Idol Posting

Dammit, I'm offcially someone who watches American Idol. As a newbie to the show it's interesting to see how it all plays out. Tonight was the first round of cuts now that the real show has begun and it was pretty predictable- except for one person. Michael the "everyman's man" made it to the top 12. Here's the thing, he's totally good and not like I'd ever make it on American Idol, but his rendition of Gavin DeGraw's I Don't Want to Be was kind of off sounding to me, but he's so likeable that I think people just want him to succeed. What was awesome was Tatiana's elimination (for now) from the show. She openly cried while everyone else who was eliminated tonight held it together and smiled pretty for the cameras. So much for not being a drama queen. I imagine we'll see her back in the competition when she snags a wildcard spot.
Unfortunately, I'm looking forward to next week's performances and eliminations :)
