A Short Plea

So while dealing with family matters, including my brother who always has something to say or argue about whenever I ask him to study, I still have time to myself including catching up on American Idol. Honestly, Im not a fan but there would usually be one or two that would catch my attention and if every week, they get better and better. This year, it is Adam Lambert who is making even the most hardcore people who refuse to pay attention to American Idol, become a convert as evidenced by an article written by a columnist in the papers today.

Then there are his supporters who became complacent last week making him in the bottom two. I hope they wake up this time and not cast their votes to other contestants with the mindset that he will not be going home because he has so many supporters. But if half of his fanbase decided to do that, it is going to sabotage his chances of entering the finals and getting a shot at winning American Idol. That guy, in my opinion, works harder than other contestants who are to me not risky enough because they always stick to the same formulaic route that may garner the votes but will make them forgettable soon enough if they ever become stars. In other words also, they are the ones who make American Idol forgettable too as people become sick and tired of watching the same thing.

So please, any American people reading this blog and a fan of Adam Lambert, please dont let this talent go to waste. Yes the rest of the contestants are good too but seriously, we want the real deal and the eventual winner should be someone who is versatile enough to last in this music industry instead of just churning out an average record.
