American Idol S18 (with judges Luke Bryan, Katy Perry & Lionel Richie)
 

Is anyone watching this season?

I just watched the first episode and there were a few good contestants.

My favourite is Nick Merico:


There's also a guy called Louis Knight from London:


Luke Bryan is amazing :love:
Katy is meh
Lionel is ****ing terrible

Who is Luke Bryan ??

I think judges are ok but not as good as Simon , Randy and Paula but I prefer Katie Perry , Lionel Richie and Luke Bryan ’ to

JLO
Keith Urban
Steven Tyler
Nicki Minaj
Mariah Carey
Harry Connick Jr

I also liked Kara DioGuardi And Ellen DeGeneres thought they were good additions

One of the biggest stars in country music

I would love a panel of Harry Connick Jr, Luke Bryan and Paula Abdul :love:

Quite a few more good contestants performed the past couple of weekends

This girl gives me Angie Miller vibes:

Fair enough but I don’t think the panel is as good or the same without


Simon Paula and Randy

That panel remains iconic, I did enjoy those seasons a lotttt :clap1:

Luke Bryan, i luv his song that's my kind of night so much :clap2:

Stacey if u are a good idols fan :flutter:

DSDS allstars guest performance last night of season 1 winner alexander klaws, season 1 runner up Juliette, and another winner Pietro, and Judge who has been there every series so far Dieter Bohlen


and this one, an iconic like a prayer performance, one of this years standout acts Lydia ''Rude Lude''

Francisco is amazing!! :love:

Song choices so far with the top 20 song suggestions

Nick Merico: Natural (Original song)
Francisco Martin: kills you slowly by Chainsmokers
Louis knight: Ex by James TW
Jovin Webb: We need love by John legend
JustSam: Solo Quiero (Somebody to love) by Leona Lewis feat Cali Y El Dundee and Juan Magan
DeWayne Crocker Jr: Crash by usher
Faith Becnel: somebody else’s guy by Jocelyn brown
Johnny West: one day by logic feat one republic

Okay so I've almost caught up with everything now...

- My favourites are Nick, Louis, Makayla and Grace/Lauren (whichever country girl makes it through). Also like Arthur, Julia and Francisco but need to see more of them.
- SHOCKED @ Jonny being so highly praised throughout the season. He's average at best.
- ... and how on this earth did Margie not go through but he did? :unsure:
- It's become really obvious that Katy bases it on who she fancies. Embarrassing too. She was in love with Nick last year and this year because he's cute and got pretty eyes, then she is all over Jonny and says he 'could make it further than Margie' in his audition. She really has come across like a bitter bitch all season.

How did Amber Fiedler not go through when she sang better than 90% of the people in every round? :conf:

Jovin is ****ing terrible btw

Oh my... GOD @ Nick's performance :o SO ****ING AMAZING



Louis, Julia, Francisco, Dillon, Grace and Arthur were also great
Jovin was absolutely awful again, sooo out of tune :skull:

Soooooo happy Just Sam won! Makes a nice change for the gazillion country artists that have won for the past however many years!

Shame she couldn’t be with her grandma to celebrate it but her reaction was so sweet :love:

I loved Just Sam soooo much! So glad that she won! My mother and I screamed with happiness when she won, we were so shocked!

Sam was basic as ****

Good singer but nothing special

Finale was **** anyway, Nick and Louis should have been there

I randomly caught this finale on & watched it :joker:

Only good part: Katy Perry's performance :fan:

Same but Luke Bryan

Finally watched the finale lol. Quite surprised Just Sam won as I thought Arthur Gunn had it in the bag since day one. The final 2 I was never really rooting for personally although, Arthur’s performance of “I Don’t Want To Be” was amazing and considering with what Just Sam had to go through in terms of not being able to spend anytime with her family whilst taking part in the later rounds of the show, I suppose it was quite nice to see her win. Was gutted for Francisco tho he was the only one out of the top 5 that I wanted to win :(.

I was surprised at the voting for people going through as well like how did Julia and Louie not make it over Jonny West and Dillon James? How did Makayla barely make top 11? Sophia not making top 7? Even Nick going so early was a surprise for me tbh. Such a shame.

Overall tho I thought it was quite a good season considering how long it’s been since I watched Idol. There was a lot of talent this year and I actually quite enjoyed the performances at home since it was quite different to what we normally see on these type of shows. It’s convinced me to watch next season :hugesmile:.
