American Idol Top 5 Results: Brooke White Cries and Cries Some More

![]()
8:02 p.m. Good news: We get two songs from each contestant tonight. Bad news: They will ALL be from Neil Diamond. Yeah, he sold more than 120 million records, but is this really something to appeal to U.S. youth? We’re older than that, and even we are having trouble keepin’ our dinner down.
8:05 p.m. Jason Castro forgets the lyrics right in front of Mr. Diamond. “Forever in Blue Jeans” comes across as pitchy and breathy and he just looks confused. Is it just us, or does this boy always looks stoned?
8:11 p.m. Oh my god. David Cook’s outfit looks so douche-baggy no words can really describe it. Well, besides DOUCHE BAG. He looks like a prepackaged emo-licious lead singer like a Pete Wentz or something. And next thing you know, he’ll be sperminating Miley Cyrus.
8:14 p.m. The Whiteheads should be totally disappointed this week because Brooke’s rendition of “I’m a Believer” sucked so bad it made Mr. Diamond stick his fingers so far into his ears that he is now deaf.
8:16 p.m. These songs are so short. Before you can even fully assess how horribly shitty each one is, it’s over.
8:22 p.m. Mr. Diamond calls David Archuleta a prodigy. Why the fuzz does he get to sing the only two songs that are really known by the general population? Seems like a set up to us. That’s just no fair.
8:23 p.m. Is it wrong that every time we look at David A. we see some sort of mouse or cat ears sprouting from his hairline. He’s a flipping stuffed animal!
8:24 p.m. Syesha Mercado is easily becoming our favorite. She’s the last diva standing.
8:27 p.m. Randy: Jason = OK; David C. = in the zone; Brooke = karoke; David A. = awesome; Syesha = strong Vocals.
8:28 p.m. And hoooooly shit, apparently Paula was smoking on the crack pipe before the show. She thought everyone just sang two songs ALREADY!!! HAHAHAHAHAH, what an effin’ moron. But you gotta love her. That moment made the whole show.
UPDATE: See Paula’s mistake here. And EW’s blog has a word-for-word transcription of it here.
