Does Elimination Ever Crossed Ramiele’s Mind?
Since I totally missed American Idol last night (note to self: get TiVo®), I’m learning about Ramiele’s fate from TV Squad. The theme in this 6th week of American Idol is Dolly Parton:
Ramiele Malubay - “Do I Ever Cross Your Mind”
Dolly thinks she’s cute, sweet and scared. Ramiele admitted to being completely star-struck. Dolly connected with her because they’re both equally tiny in stature. Ramiele showed a little more personality in this performance, but I’m not sure how authentically she sold the story of the lyrics. Still, there was some vocal diversity where she could showcase her power. During the more mellow portions of the song, it didn’t work quite as well for me. Overall, though, you could tell she was really trying to bring something more to her performance.
Randy: “I wasn’t jumping up and down, but I wasn’t mad at you either. It was alright. You showed some signs of strength right there and conviction. I thought it was a pretty good performance. I would say six-and-a-half out of ten.”
Paula: “I’m very proud of you because I was a little worried that you weren’t going to connect. But I think that you really had a great minute and thirty seconds and you really connected with the audience and you were having fun.”
Simon: “Look, we’re not going to remember this in ten year’s time are we? It was cute. You sang it quite well. But overall, I thought it was forgettable, and I thought it was very reminiscent of something you would see and hear on a cruise ship, if you want my honest opinion.”
Wow, Randy only gives her 6.5 out of 10. Maybe that’s just right. Simon’s ‘cruise ship’ comment is getting old. I do not see Ramiele as a country singer. Yet again another theme that does not bode well for her.
Could this possibly be the end for Top-Ramen? TV Squad’s projected bottom three are Ramiele Malubay, Jason Castro, Kristy Lee Cook, with Ramiele getting the axe. Ramiele has never been in the bottom three even when the judges were unimpressed. The fans have kept her afloat. Will they still deliver this week?
