American Idol: Can we vote off the guest singers? Please.

Michael Buble was an unexpected surprise on the American Idol show last night. He and his lame performance should have stayed home.
Can we vote off Michael Buble? 

What the heck was that?  Beige, insipid, uninspired, and dull...and those are the nice words.  Lounge lizards, you have a new king.

It's a good thing my fellow Canadian already has a job, because I would have voted his ass off the American Idol show last night.  His nod to Frank Sinatra, with a lazy rendition of the late crooner's "Call Me Irresponsible," does not bode well for the album Buble plans to release this May. 

And what was with the hippy-dippy, hopsy-doodle thing that he did on the stage? Where was he running to like some chimp-brained hoo-haw with his arms waving in the air?

How about that lame joke he tried to pull on Ryan Seacrest?  Oh, my sides are heaving; oh wait, that's my stomach.  Where's good old Bill Shatner when you need him?  (Captain James T. Kirk?  He's a Canadian, too.)

Was Buble hired to perform as an example for those American Idol kids?  Whose idea was that?  Here's a thought: Get a real entertainer next time. 

Hey, I know.  How about a Middle Eastern kid with long brown hair?  Sanjaya gets hokey, too, but we expect that from him.

What's Buble's excuse?

He was filling in for Tony Bennett, which I didn't understand until I remembered that Tony Bennett is frickin' 80 years old. I think the producers gambled enough with thawing him out to mentor the contestants--they didn't want to chance another cryogenic chamber extraction.

Maybe he really DID leave his heart in San Francisco -- and had get a new one?

Love the article. I was really kinda wishing Michael Bubble Brain was Australian...or German....or ANYTHING but Canadian.

We're not beige. Honest. Written on 5/4/07

My boyfriend and I were marveling at how Michael Buble looks like the stereotypical douchebag letterman jacket-wearing jock antagonist in every teen movie. Written on 5/4/07

Buble (bubbly as I call him) is taking the rat pack thing a little too seriously. The guy was HAMMERED. He was drunk, and from the "sniffles" probably had a couple key bumps by the time his manager called him to do the replacement gig. My favorite line was when he finished, he asked Seacrest," Am I wasting my vote by still voting for Antonella Barba?" Totally. Redeemed. Written on 5/4/07
