    Default Is American Idol fixed ?

    I have been getting the feeling that the show is fixed for Katherine to win for weeks now. I don't think she knows it though.

    Does anyone else think the show might be fixed?

    Yep. It's totally fixed. I didn't like Chris, but he should've been in the Finale with Taylor. Kat is fucking annoying and should've been gone long ago. I liked her to begin with, but she wore on me.

    If she wins, it'll be proof that it's rigged, I won't watch another Season of it.

    I suspected it was fixed when Charles Manson won season 2. That guy just couldnt sing to save his life.

    Well if you go by vocals there is no competition. Taylors voice isnt really in a league with catherines. Even tommy mattola said she had the best voice he had heard out of all seasons. The guys just never seem to do as good as the girls their vocals arent as good. Anyways I know someone who tried out and he says it fixed. Who knows it isnt going to change my life. I guess they try to fix it for the one who will sell the most. More money for them.

    Yep.. I've voted for Taylor since the start. He's such a spaz, but he's got the talent. Plus, I'm a sucker for the salt & pepper hair. Can't really explain that one, but it makes me all tingly. Heh. (SOUL PATROL!)

    Either way, they'll both get contracts, but if Kat wins, I'm done.

    Tommy Mottola is just a horny old man. He probably thinks he can get her in the sack and turn her into the next Mariah. She is inconsistent and her camera eye-fucking like last year's Constantine is unbearable.

    She did do a great job on "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" though.. I'll give her that.

    Its extremly fixed... just like Canadian Idol. My good friend tried for Canadian Idol, I went with him to the audition. Anyway he had an amazing voice, the judges even said he was a great voice and has a lot of potential... he made it through a couple of rounds(there are a bumch of rounds even before they start the parts they show on TV) anyway I think he got as far as the first TV one and they told him they had to say bye because hes not what they were looking for. Yet they let a bunch of whiney voices continue on... I would have rather listend to a cat with its tail in a blender then these people.

    I don't know, but Simon Cowell is the biggest closet case I have ever seen. Bigger than Ryan Seacrest.

    Eh...it's gotta be fixed. Rather than put a long, drawn out response...I'll just say I agree with Rhi.

    If Taylor loses, I'll know Idol is a total sham. We aren't dumb, though...we ALL know Chris got booted because of the Fuel rumors (whether he does it or not).

    I like Katharine better than Taylor, even though she can be inconsistent. I'm not a big Taylor fan. He's got a good voice-I just don't care for the type of music that he usually sings. Chris was my favorite and I don't really care who wins this year. This has just been a weird year all around for Idol-I can't believe that Bucky and Kellie lasted longer than Mandisa did. Both of them should've been gone before her.

    As for whether Idol is rigged, I honestly don't think it is. Ruben won Season 2 and he could sing (although I thought Clay was better), but he was very overweight. If Idol was rigged, don't you think they would want someone who would appeal to the masses, like a pretty boy like Ace Young or a Barbie clone like Kellie Pickler? Ruben's not much to look at, sorry to say.

    dont know if it still applies but a few years ago, they said that the phone lines for both contestants was at 100%, so who ever won was just luck. (both at 50.0% percent)

    I've thought they've been rigging Taylor to win! Both have great, although very different, voices and talent. Both deserve to be there. And you just have to love Katherine's "Over the Rainbow"! Brought tears to my eyes!

    Hehe.. Rock on! I think he's totally precious.

    is predicting that Taylor takes it by a good margin. I can't wait to see the ho's face when she comes in second. Heh.

    Am I the only one who thinks that "fixing" American Idol would be a weird thing to do? Like, to what end? At the beginning, before there is a viewer vote it is wholly discretionary, so it can't be "fixed". Like there is no criteria that is being manipulated, nor is there meant to be. It is just production assistants and then the judges pulling people based on their own discretion. And it is not like that is hidden - and the viewer appeal factor is openly factored in. When there is an audience vote - what could anyone gain by promoting a contestant that fewer viewers want to see? I mean, the entire point is to have the maximum number of people watching; if more people want to see Chris, what do they have to gain from keeping Katherine instead? And for the winner - the show is over. What possible agenda could they have for "fixing" the final result?

    Yippie! I was wrong, it wasn't fixed. Prince was icing on the cake for me because I am a big, big fan of his music. It's cool to see him being more public again

    I totally wouldn't have guessed him as the future winner at the beginning of the season, but I'm super happy he won!
