» 3 comments

If the ‘Lee Wins Idol’ headline Drudge was running an hour before the winner was announced was anything to go by the results of tonight’s American Idol was not a total shock. Unless, of course, you watched last night’s show during which Crystal Bowersox was clearly far and away the better performer. Regardless! America has spoken and Lee DeWyze, the former paint-seller, is America’s new idol. You can watch the video of his emotional win below.

    On Tuesday Bowersox picked the better songs. People don’t vote just on song picks. They also judge character.
    When I see people with tatoos and metal sticking out of places they don’t belong, I take that into account.
    When I see someone that is a single mom, I take that into account.
    When I see someone that makes no mention of their mother and her dad is in a MC gang, I take that into account.
    I suspect Chystal ran away from home and got pregnant. She was probably once a drug user and a street slut. She appears to making an effort to go straight. Good for her. But I would NEVER want he to an idol to young kids. Yes I am judgemental, so are the voters on idol, that is their job.
    These kids should realize that their choices have consequenses later in their life. They have to live with them.
    I don’t waste my money voting for them anyway. I did not affect the vote.
    Adam Lambert was the best ever last year.

    Glad Lee won. I still wish Siobahn Magnus had got it.
