I'm still on a bit of a high from last night's success with the Real World New Orleans chat and the Flawless Escape show, but it's time to focus on the next challenge: Getting celebs to follow me, retweet me, and support #EB4MTVTJ.
Before I tell you how you can help, I want to pick a couple people to really focus on and harass for the next few days... That way we're not all over the place. These are my faves on Twitter or people I have a connection with.... And how I think I can reel them in.
@KrisAllen. We both have that fantastic crooked mouth thing going on! I also LOVE American Idol [duh] and love him! We shall send my Twitpic to him as much as possible and remind him of the beauty we would create if we were lovers friends.
@iJustine. She was one of the people who inspired me to create this blog and my videos, she knows my online Florida BF and she's the Mac version of me, or I'm the PC version of her... whichever you look at it. [eBethany/iJustine]
@LaVarArrington. I want a Redskin follower... Bad. He was my first ever jersey, and the reason I LOVED going to the games. He may have become a traitor, but he's back in Washington again!
@TheEllenShow. I'm sure everyone's going to try and get her, but there's no way anyone's a bigger fan of hers than mine. I'm going to prove it. I'll have the most epic of all epic videos up later tonight. In the meantime- keep tweeting her.
@LaurenConrad. I genuinely think she'll be the hardest to get, but I love her. I have to try. I model my look and attitude after her. She's one of my realistic idols. She doesn't follow many people, but she's gotta follow me!
This is all I'm going to say for now. I don't want to be all over the place, I want to stay focused... And these people represent many sides of me.
If you have any other suggestions, send em my way. Tomorrow I may add or delete some of this list... so stay tuned!
Thanks in advance! Your help means the world to me.
So apparently David Cook performed "Little Lies" with Kris Allen and Adam GLambert on Good Morning America the other day and I missed it. What the heck.
First of all.. Glambert has such a big presence, it's really a good thing he didn't win. American Idol would have been a career breaker, I think.
Second, this little performance shows that Kris Allen would be an amazing Country singer. Hopefully they see this and make him a country-ish album, with a pop edge. We all know Country+Idol=Success.
Third, I absolutely love David Cook. I'm so upset that his career hasn't skyrocketed like Daughtry's because it should be. He was amazing when I talked to him, he was amazing in concert, and he's such a down to Earth guy that he deserves the world.
I really hope something happens to just shoot both him and Kris Allen through the roof.
As for Glammy, he's already got people throwing sex toys and stuff at him on stage. I think he's set.
OH MY GOODNESS CAN YOU BELIEVE IT?!?! THIS IS A COMPLETE SHOCK!!!! GLAMBERT IS OFFICIALLY COMING OUT IN THE NEW ROLLING STONE!!!!
.... Duhhhhh.
He does say something interesting, though. Something I kind of wondered, probably assumed, but never thought the truth would come out about.
"I was like, 'Oh [crap], they roomed me with the cute guy.' Distracting? He's the one guy that I found attractive in the whole group on the show: nice, nonchalant, pretty and totally my type -- except that he has a wife." --Adam Lambert to Rolling Stone about American Idol Kris Allen
Veryyyy interesting and up front. I'm sure Kris knew, though. And they roomed together?! How perfect! Seeing as they were the final two and all....
Ohhh man! What. A. Finale!!! First of all, THANK GOD KRIS WON!!!! Your American Idol= Kris Allen!
The show was pretty great, and definitely packed... And also definitely aiming towards middle-aged women, who probably helped Kris win big time. TONS of duets from famous singers with people from the Top 13. Here are some of them:
Kris Allen, Adam Lambert/Queen--> We Are the Champions
WOW! What a performance for the top 2 to do. It's crazy how they have such different voices, but they both sound good with Queen. [Of course, Adam stands out quite a bit..] And how precious of a song. ;)
Adam Lambert/Kiss--> Beth
Absolutely incredible performance, for sure. [And of course, the song is uber-fabulous!] When's the last time anyone saw KISS perform?! But what is Adam wearing? Metal, rhinestoned, wings? Or are they shoulder pads? And why did he call up the Spice Girls to ask to borrow their shoes? Yikes. Wardrobe change, please.
Allison Iraheta/Cyndi Lauper--> Time After Time
This girl is so incredibly talented, holy S. I can't wait to hear what kind of album she puts out. Cyndi sounded rough, but the idea behind it all was really awesome. I love this... A lot.
Danny Gokey/Lionel Richie--> Medley
I wish I could say "Danny should have been in the finale." He should have been.. But who should he have replaced? I'm not sure that he should have won in place of Kris, but maybe. Actually, probably. But who knows! All I know is he is an amazing singer, and did great with Lionel.
Top 13/Jason Mraz--> I'm Yours
I think this is a cool performance, but I wish it would have only been a couple of them, not everyone.
Top 13/Carlos Santana--> Medley
Again, I love this performance, but I wish it had only been Matt Giraud with him... And maybe Kris and if they had to come up with a girl, Alexis. Sometimes all 13 of them is just too much, duh.
The girls/Fergie--> Medley
Why do the girls sound way better than Fergie? And what is this look of hers?! My GOD she looks MISERABLE!! Seriously awful. Also, they had to dump her during Boom Boom Pow because apparently she forgot you can't say the S word on national TV. Idiot.
Kris Allen/Keith Urban--> Kiss a Girl
Absolutely amazing. This shows why he won! He sounds GREAT alongside of Keith. He's almost like a mini-me to him.
Honestly.. The highlight of the whole show, was when Bikini Girl got her award. No wait, that wasn't the best part. It was right after that:
OMG. Katrina's face is PRICELESS when Kara comes out there on the stage. I really don't think she knew ahead of time. She was not trying to give her a hug! AND!! When Kara ripped off her dress!! You go girl! I'm so sick of Bikini Girl's 15 minutes of fame! Kara took over the moment!!
As for the performances, that's about it it. Steve Martin performed a song on the banjo.... Weird. And they gave a duet to Lil... With Queen Latifah. Also random..
Everyone's really freaking out about the "upset." I guess I agree because I said from the beginning that Kris was the guy I liked that never had a chance in winning. I thought he was forgettable. Apparently not.
The best part about it is that when he was about to hear the results, he wasn't worried or anything. You could tell that he "knew" he wasn't going to win and that Adam had it hands down. When they called his name, this is the face he made:
Pure shock. He has got to be the most "boy next door" or down to Earth Idol ever, and I am so excited about it! Congrats, Kris Allen! I can't wait to write much more about you, and maybe even get an interview in the future. :)
American Idol, RIP... For now. Until I see you at auditions with my BFF C-ton, that is.
love, elizabethany
PS: Here are some pictures! Check out the band-aids Carrie is ROCKIN'! And Kim Caldwell looks great! Also, it's kinda crazy how Glambert is just proportionately a lot bigger than Kris.
