It might be a little early but I thought I'd start this season's AI thread.
I really like Danny, the man whose wife recently died. I think he'll go far. There are some others that I like but I don't remember their names.
I was very glad to see Katrina "bikini girl" go home last night. I was tired of watching Simon drool over her!! And I sure hope the girl (don't know her name but I'll call her "drama queen") who thanked God and everybody under the sun, goes home before the live shows begin.
Any thoughts out there on any of the contestants? |

Marjorie,
I agree with everything you said! :D
Danny has been my favorite since his initial audition.
Drama Queen was ridiculous.
Oh, I thought I read/heard that Jason Castro's little brother auditioned, but I didn't watch all of the auditions and don't know if he got through to Hollywood. Do you know? |

No, I don't know anything about Jason Castro's brother. I actually saw very little of the audition shows. |

Yes, Jason's brother (Michael) made it through to Hollywood. Here he is with Jason...

Thanks, Randy! What did you think of his voice? |

I can't really recall how his voice sounded or even the song he sang. I do recall thinking I didn't care for his song choice. Sorry I don't remember more. |

I was curious how Michael Castro would do during the Hollywood auditions because he hadn't had any experience with singing or choosing songs. In fact during his first audition he said he had never sang until about 20 days prior to the audition. Jason didn't even know Michael could sing! |

Randy,
Thanks for the info. I think Jason had a similar story (about people not even knowing he sang prior to AI).
We'll probably see Michael next week (as the Hollywood round continues). |

I read in an article that David came down with laryngitis just prior to the group performances and was not able to go on. Therefore, he was cut. That's a shame. |

I haven't gotten that familiar with everyone yet, but the one who made the biggest impression on me is Ann Marie Boskovich...she has the whole package...looks, voice and personality.

Ken, I'm not sure who she is (I don't know too many names yet).
One I do know -- Michael Castro -- was cut during Hollywood Week. |

Bonnie...she hasn't gotten much air time. During the audition phase they told her to go out and get dressed in another outfit and she came back and did well. She has long brown hair but keep an eye out for her.
