Why I love Chanel . . . and why you should too. Or Else.
A. Because she sang one of my favourite songs in theoriginal top 30 perfs and did the Portishead girl proud.
B. Because she has a fucking sense of humour
C. She loves Courtney (and Daniel and Ben)
D. She can actually sing (unlike say, Emelia)
E. Hello!! Did you SEE her last night? There are NO more reasons necessary. History Repeating was FAB. And if anyone has a problem with that - you tell them to see me, I am ready to rumble on my bestest girlfriends behalf.
Top three performances in order of brilliance and my humble opinion - Chanel, Ricki-Lee and Anthony. I am as suprised as the next person that Anthony is up there, but he was really good. Much better quality -it was hard to pick a brilliant performance until my girl came out and struck a pose (but Anthony was in the lead up to that point). Chanel was the best AGAIN but verrrrrrry closely followed by Ricki-Lee - that Beyonce song freaking rocked. She has in the past struck me as just bland vanillapopgirl but that performance put the grrrr in vanillapopgrrrrl (baby!!) and mad props to little Anthony for leaving the gel at home where it belongs and scruffing up a bit to bouncebouncebounce!Courtney was the next best and then I didn't hate (in no particular order) Marty (liked his song choice, screw you Dicko), Daniel (although I didn't nec like the song - still, a better perf from the girlyoperaboy) and Hayley (I thought she did another okay job) BUT horror of horrors - Casey (!!) was average, Amali was average, Emelia was average (which is bloody brilliant for her) and Dan's Creed sucked the ass of Christian rockers everywhere. Unfortunately there are women who apparently find him attractive - I don't personally get it - so he won't be going anywhere. I do think Holden was on the money though when he said Dan doesn't have the best voice in the world. Methinks mayhap it be betwixt young Amali, Emelia and (I hate that this might be the case - geddit? Case/Casey?) Casey. She was just average and she didn't get my vote this week and I think a lot of her fans will feel the same and she'll have lost a lot of votes. I think we all know how much I would like to see Emelia go, but she wasn't hideous and I'm worried that will save her. Hopefully she doesn't have the fan base and as I said to Fosse last night - when i hear that Pink song on the radio or see the filmclip I'm not ashamed to say I tear up and Emelia just had me nodding wryly and huffing that she wasn't as bad as usual. Still, fingers crossed . . .
