May 16, 2007--DAMN I'M GOOD!!!

With Melinda gone from American Idol, several things are obvious: Simon doesn't sway voters, technique is not the deciding factor, and damn I'm good.  The 2 finalists are 2 of my early picks: Jordin Sparks and Blake Lewis. The 17  year old Jordin has more natural talent than I've heard in ages and should win.  Blake is a master of rhythm and that has carried him this far.  It hurt him tonight that Maroon 5 performed. Adam Levine, lead of M5, outsang Blake and looked a lot better (Blake did a cover of an M5 song).  Til now, Blake's style was too unique to compare to other performers on the show so he stood out. With Adam Levine on stage, I'm sure Blake's fans are not as impressed as they once were.

Yes, both Jordin AND Blake are gay. However, Sanjaya is much more gay than both of them combined. I won't be able to answer any more of these questions until I get back from my sold-out tour of Europe, but in case you have any more AI questions - yes - everyone is gay.

Sorry, couldn't find a bird, Barbra.

Thanks, Barbra. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't there still tickets available for your shows in Europe? Thanks.

No, all my shows sell out - even if there's still tickets available.

Love in the Afternoon, Barbra

Thanks for responding Barbra. You are so in tune to your fans. That is why you charge so much for your shows because you know we all have as many houses as you do. Is the bird you couldn't find gay? Hey bird...you can show him the way bird
You can show him today bird
Oh yes indeedum that's a fine kind o' freedom. X

By the way, I paid more than $850 to see you in DC. Why was I not on the guest list for Nancy Pelosi? I have never spent that much money on my mom and she's pretty pissed about it. I will make a video showing her anger so you can see that you weren't the only one with mother issues. Perhaps you can show a video of my mother's rage while you're singing "Piece of Sky."

So you bought a cheap ticket and expect some attention. Not even a vip ticket. blah.

I don't want attention. I want my MOTHER to get attention. So I'm sending an angry letter to Barbra that my mom sent and I'm hoping she will read it during her Europe concerts. My mom is kind of mad that I made her a Mother's Day card out of macaroni and glitter because, since I went into the hole buying Babs tickets, I couldn't afford a Hallmark card or a gift. I was going to give my mom some flowers but by Mother's Day, all of the roadside wildflowers were dead.
