megan is me. And even worse, I was all set to leap to Fivehead's defense and assert how intelligently she has spun a career as a covergirl and mediocre actress into a mini-media empire. Tyra Sanchez has nothing on the real Tyra, that's for sure.

Raven would be much more of a draw than Tyra. Yes, she is pretty and she can work the runway, but she doesn't know how to (or they sure didn't show it) interact with others and be entertaining.

Yes! And I think Raven (and Jujube) will still do fine even though they didn't win the title. You all know you don't have to wear the crown to be the queen!

That's totally true. I would go see Jujubee in a heartbeat at a club or a pride parade. Tyra, not so much (and not just because I didn't like her personally, she's just not interesting.)

Merle thinks that Tyra is "incredibly intelligent"? I have lost all respect for her.

Dear me. Did you hear me yell that at the tv last night?

A world of this. Tyra is pretty but has the personality of oatmeal. With sharp, bitchy razors pointed at her competitors.

Hell yes. I adore Jujubee. And really like Raven, too. I still have a very fond spot for Pandora.

ITA with all y'all said. Not to mention that Raven in particular is way more versatile than Tyra, and Tyra applies her makeup with a trowel. I recorded "Untucked" and the reunion, but haven't watched them yet.

I recorded the finale but I'm not going to watch if Tyra won because..she's so mean and nasty and then acted all shocked when she got called on it on the runway.

She can put together an outfit, but when it came time to really preform -- like the snatch game or the rock star one, she was just...bland.

OMG. Why is Shania wearing cammo, cropped, harem pants? Really? Well, Lee picked one of the few Shania songs that's an actual song and not a catchy line + a hook and then he was screechy and pitchy from the very first note. He kinda found his way in the middle and then lost it again at the end. I think he screwed up trying to do the ket change. Whatever. It was adequate, far from good, and I wish the judges would get off his jock.

Big Mike/It Only Hurts When I'm Breathing - He really does have a lovely voice. I can't front. Although Luther? I beg to differ. But he's just so cheesy, with the sway, and the gospel hand, and the tilt of the head just so. I never feel a real connection from him, Judge #4. he always comes off fake as hell. Simon was right. I don't get the whole wet thing, unless he meant wet blanket, but I totally get the bad community theater vibe.

Also, the shoes? Dear lord in heaven, the Shania shoes. Did she break her feet on the way to the mentor room? And I can't even start with Judge #4 and her metric ton of cubic zirconia fashioned into the world's ugliest and least functional bib.

Casey and Crystal both sang well and both bored me for very different reasons. Still, I'll be miffed if either one leaves before the Cheesemaster or Wondertwink.

I was about to toddle off to bed when I realized I hadn't said anything about Siobahn. And that's because I don't have anything to say about Siobahn. I'm so over her, which is sad because I used to be very much under her. But now? She, Big Mike, Wondertwink . . . they can pretty much go in any order.

In Glee news, Artie totally schooled Big Mike in how to effectively deploy the gospel hand. Check him out when Mercedes is digging into that X-Tina classic. I hope the cheesemaster was taking notes.

BWAH!!!!
