I mean, is it really worth doing a recap if it was all about Jennifer Lopez acting nice to these commoners singing Gloria Estefan songs?

You could tell the whole show was a downhill slide when Melinda comes out swinging with the version of "Sway" that I really don't like (for the record: my favorite version is from the soundtrack to Dark City.) When Simon finally finds something wrong with you, Melinda, the show is going to suck.

I really don't have much else to say about the people who either sang Santana songs (I mean, not even the good '70's Santana songs, the annoying overly-played recent crap) or Gloria Estefan/Miami Sound Machine songs (that will always be dated by their '80's-ness.) There's no singing involved, and as the episode with Gwen Stefani showed a couple of weeks ago, none of these people can move.

At least Haley realized that slutting it up was going to work out for her.

Well, you know, except for Blake. And if he and Sanjaya are the only decent performances of the night, well, you know. God bless us, everyone.

I can't even talk about it anymore.

Anyway, DialIdol has-- gasp!-- LaKisha going home. And every week I keep saying Haley. But she's reaching the critical mass point of the show.
