American Idol 2025 Thoughts: Day 1

 


American Idol has officially reached its live shows so that means it's time to start the commentaries. For those of you who didn't track these last year, here's an explanation; I will be saying my thoughts on the contestants and their performances. In typical 'me' fashion, I will rank each performance to #1. But unlike my normal lists, this will be from worst to best. This will be starting the following week as today is just an introduction.


Our Top 24 has been chosen and they are as follows;



   Canaan James Hill (Platinum)            Gabby Simone

 Zaylie Windsor                        Mattie Pruitt

 Thunderstorm Artis                 Drew Ryn

 Che                                                Penny Samar

 Grayson Torrence              MKY

 Josh King                          Amanda Barise 

 Victor Solomon                           Kyana Fanene

 Slater Nalley                              Baylee Littrell

 John Foster                        Filo (Platinum)

 Kolbi Jordan (Platinum)     Isaiah Misailegalu

 Olivier Bergeron                         Desmond Roberts

 Jamal Roberts        Breanna Nix



Here's a division of where I stand on these contestants in the form of Loves, Likes, and Meh/I Don't Cares;


Loves:

Canaan- can SANG his butt off and loves God with no shame
Amanda- won me over during Hollywood Week
Baylee- also won me over. Has NOTHING to do with his dad
Jamal- also won me over 


Likes:

Gabby- talented, though slightly annoying
Drew- I like her voice
Che- nice voice
Josh- awkward but endearing 
Victor- low range is impressive
Filo- I understand why he got the platinum
Kolbi- talented but has bad habits and is the weakest of the platinum trio
Isaiah- nice voice
Desmond- SUPER HIGH range, but also developed bad habits
Breanna- she's growing on me


Meh/I Don't Care:

Zaylie- she's fine, that's it
Mattie- kind of boring
Thunderstorm- he seems like a nice guy though
Penny- be careful with your facial expressions
Grayson- she's fine, that's it
MKY- a little bit too cheesy for me
Kyana- also boring but more memorable than Mattie
Slater- not impressed, but sweet kid
John- again, boring
Olivier- our French connection


Oldest Contestant- Thunderstorm (29)
Youngest Contestant- Mattie (15)
Best Girl- Amanda
Best Boy- Canaan
Favorite Contestant- Canaan

Starting next week, I will be ranking each performance from worst to best. If a song I feel uncomfortable with is covered, I will skip the ranking and just say the best and worst performance. Once people start going home, they will not be included in the ranking.

Introduction

Bio My name is Naomi Marie Elidios Chadwick. I was born in San Diego, California, but I currently live in Las Vegas, Nevada. I pretty much have a traditional family, which involves happily married parents, 1 younger sister, and an older brother. I was raised Christian, and I continue to practice Christianity to this day. This is not a spiritual blog but some of the content that I post is influenced by my faith. Every now and then I will post Christian content as well, just not always (except with Billboard ). The picture you see up above is me at the airport with my father after I graduated from AmeriCorps NCCC after 10 months of community service. In response I received a congressional award for community service. I've always been really proud of that. I was diagnosed with Asperger's (a form of Autism) around the age of 6, but I was not informed of my diagnosis until I was 12. I'm very into movies and television (animation especially), and pop culture as a whole, and I...

My Top 10 Best Movies Of 2024 (Part 2)

  So, now it’s time for the best list. This is obviously a list of what is in my opinion, the best movies of 2024. Before anything else, just a quick reminder that I have chosen not to review or rank the films  Mary  &  Dune: Part Two   due to my conflicting feelings on them. So you won’t see either of those 2 on this list. If you would like an explanation for 1 or both movies, there are 2 links down below. If there’s an acclaimed movie you were expecting to see on this list that you didn’t see, check out my “Movies You Won’t See” post through the link down below.  #10:  The Bikeriders God-honest truth, the main reason I saw this movie is because of my soft spot for Austin Butler. Though definitely not the strongest movie, this was really good. Its strong points were the performances and the twists. While Austin wasn’t THE standout, he did do a really good job and truly embraced his inner James Dean. The standout however was indeed Tom Ha...
