American Idol Season 7 Auditions At Atlanta Georgia

So what are the latest and hottest rumors about American Idol and in particular season 7? Unless you count the continued speculation that Simon Cowell is still sleeping with Paula Abdul when in fact it could be Randy Jackson who is the guilty one, then there is nothing much yet in terms of American Idol rumors. However, there have been no shortage of hot babes to look at despite the auditions not spotlighting too many of them yet and this week American Idol goes back to Atlanta, Georgia in the quest for more of the best American singing talents and eye candy. This is the city where American Idol discovered Clay Aitken, Jennifer Hudson and Fantasia Moreno, who have sold millions and millions of albums and Broadway plays and movies between them. Not to mention a miraculous Oscar win by Jennifer Hudson for a movie that no one watches.

Unfortunately we got a guy up first on the Atlanta Georgia show and he is someone who works with glass. Like, who really cares? Joshua Jones steps up claiming to show the judges something that they have not seen in any other contestants, and with a pose and a pair of 'demonic eyes', he really got to Simon Cowell who obviously did not like him despite a decent voice. But the other two judges as always, loved him and allowed him to go through. What can we say about Joshua Jones except that he really gets into his performances but unless you are into rock and pose gigs, Joshua Jones will not go far in American Idol. But he is going to Hollywood. Now we don't usually like to cover the jokers and losers, but the next guy is quite a laugh. A failure in season 4 and a failure again this season 7, J.P. Tjelmeland is another example of America Demented. J.P. even said he's a music major. In singing! Good lord what is this world coming to?

Next up is your mandatory sob story of the episode. Asia'H Epperson was heading for her American Idol audition, gave a call to her dad to let him know, and thirty minutes later she got a phonecall from her brother that her dad had just died from a car accident. Wow what a story! And you know Americans would lap it up. I think Asia'H's kinda hot though - great smile and a sexy sultry voice. She sang for her dad but unfortunately she's got some pitch problems. But Asia'H Epperson sang her way into the judges' hearts and Hollywood. But oh my god it was the sob story of the American Idol season so far and Paula Abdul had to leave the stage to cry her eyes out and you could see that even Simon Cowell was affected.

Brooke Helvie is Ms South Florida Fair and she wants to prove to Simon Cowell that pageant girls can sing. Well they might be able to sing but they have to look good too but Brooke Helvie has sleepy eyes and I don't know how she became a pageant girl - it must be a small place in South Florida. Keep a lookout for the next American Idol sex scandal because pageant queens love to get down and dirty and this pageant queen Brooke Helvie got to Hollywood and she has the bod and attitude to get into something dirty later in the season. Watch this space for Brooke Helvie!

Eva Miller is someone you do not want to see too much. Ugly, looking like a nightmare housemate I once had from the Philippines who was deprived, and a dirty mouth, Eva Miller was also living in a world of her own thinking she could get to Hollywood. It's obvious that Eva Miller is a professional comedian and trying to get her five minutes of fame. Next.

Alexandrea Lushinton a 16 year old was featured next and a very low key little girl but what a big family including her 93 year old granny. Nothing much to say about her as American Idol did not show much of Alexandrea but the girl can sing crystal clear and a beautiful voice. The judges loved it and sent her through to Hollywood. A great example of America's problem teens is Nathan Hite who is only 16 and thinks the world owes him a big favor. Kids nowadays are growing up all spoilt and having not worked their behinds off for a living and the right to live, they demand a right to everything from the get go. Nathan Hite is everything bad about America and God Bless America. It's a good thing for American Idol and Nathan Hite does not get through to Hollywood.

You have a goth girl next and a nurse in Amanda Overmeyer. She rides a Harley too and it all makes up for the next Jessica Sierra. What does she sing? Janis Joplin, of course. Like I have said in the past many times, anyone who sings Janis Joplin isn't a singer, but a wannabe screamer. Janis Joplin does not sing, she screams. But she sings another tune and the strength of her voice comes out well but not one to go far as she won't be able to sing anything other than rock baby. Off to Hollywood Amanda Overmeyer goes but she'll be back sooner than she thought.

Finally, you have a real teddy bear 18 year old Josiah Leming who lives in his car and lives a nomadic life performing. Gave up school a year ago to do this and you can see real desire in his eyes and a very down to earth but yet quietly determined fella. You know Josiah Leming is the real deal but can he sing? Yes he has a British accent and he's from Tennessee oh boy what will American Idol make of this? We have to wait and see as Josiah Leming is off to Hollywood!
