I don't know if discussing this is worth your while, but I'll shoot the question anyway: what do you think are Regine's chances if she joins American Idol? (Purely on the technical aspects of singing, and bearing in mind how the judges--Paula, Randy and Simon--are such critique.)

ciao! Peace out >> Luis.

Jun wonders:

Where the you been lurking, Luis?
Some of you guys are taking way too long
in your vacation time! lol..

I guess you noticed that this forum coast was cleared
of red tide and spoiled crabs for now. Its safe. Come
on out..

On American Idol. I like to hear what the host would think
about her sytle and voice. Thinking he may have
heard that kind of singing alot before. Not realizing
he was hearing one of the pioneers to rise from
it. He might be surprised to know how long she's
been around and how fresh she seemed with her
performance (you wonder what song she would use.)

And maybe be surprised to learn what Regine's actual
age is. Making aure If she was old enough to have a drink
with him after. hehe..

I think the song she picks to sing would be the one
factor to make all the difference in a situation like
American Idol. No need to impress how well she can
sing other songs that are popular. But get them to
think that maybe the song she was using there shoul be
the first single she must release in their next album
even if she doesn't win. Because I think they'll pick
whoever they really want in the end to be the new
recording artist for them. She's just be known as
preferred runner-up. hehe..

How's that Luis?

Song for selection? Off my head -
"You are My Song ".. " Pls be Careful With My Heart "

Songs like that only because I sense there is a shift
coming on with the taste of many American music lovers
again. Back to the kind that has poetic romantic meaning.

heto na naman ako, and i might sound biased so pardon me na lang, hahaha. pero siguro regine will totally stand out if ever she is to join american idol. first of all, she has a distintive voice that is only hers and no others, that i don't think any american has ever heard before in mainstream. secondly, regine has a captivating stage presence that the audience can easily become oblivious of the existence of other contenders. and thirdly, she has a dynamite voice that could blow away all the other contestants, and even the judges. i think she'll make it all the way to the top. sorry na lang ang american idol and their millions of viewers, kasi di nila ma witness si regine in action. my memories of watching regine compete at the asia-pacific pop singing competition is still vivid in my mind. and oh my gosh, sobrang grabe talaga. kahit ang mga kalaban nya walang reklamo at obvious na hangang-hanga sa kanya. 'yon lang.

Primetime Tuesday Ratings: Idol-Fueled Fox Remains No. 1
Wed Mar 3, 5:31 PM ET

-Yesterday's Winners:
American Idol (Fox), America's Next Top Model (UPN)

Although last night's American Idol group paled in comparison to one week earlier, they were still a considerable improvement over the unbearable eight on Feb. 17. My two picks to make it to the next level: energetic George Huff and cutesy Jasmine Trias. Most overrated: Bland John Stevens, who would have a better shot at a career if the Archie comic books were turned into a TV series. As for America's Next Top Model, the attitudinal Camille got the boot while the deadly dull Shandi is still in the running. I don't get it.

Music Fans,
Whatever you been hearing from the Buzz TV show
and Kris Aquino is mistaken information. The
other Pinay is still one of the 12 finalists.

Tsk, tsk.. Kris!
You're passing out WRONG information
among the masa there. Sus!

The two are still there.

'American Idol' Picks 12 Finalists
1 hour, 54 minutes ago

LOS ANGELES - Fox's "American Idol" is down to a dozen would-be superstars.

The starmaking game show announced the last four finalists Wednesday, setting two months of song-and-dance
competition that will culminate in a new musical favorite in May. The four "wild card" candidates included one
selected by an audience vote: Jon Peter Lewis, a 24-year-old Idaho resident whose dance-happy rendition of
an Elvis Presley song had voters rooting for him. The other three finalists were picked by the show's judges.

Randy Jackson selected Jennifer Hudson, 22, a cruise line singer from Chicago whose voice has impressed
the judges, even if her fashion sense hasn't. Paula Abdul tabbed Leah LaBelle, 17, of Seattle. Cranky Simon
Cowell chose George Huff, 23, a music education major who has performed in many churches in Louisiana.

The four join the already selected finalists, including Fantasia Barrino, 19, High Point, N.C.;
Diana Degarmo, 16, Snellville, Ga.; Camile Velasco, 18, Haiku, Hawaii; and Matthew Rogers, 25,
Rancho Cucamonga, Calif. Other finalists are La Toya London, 24, Hawthorne, Calif.; Amy Adams, 24,
Bakersfield, Calif.; Jasmine Trias, 17, Mililani, Hawaii, and John Stevens, 16, East Amherst, N.Y.

The group will perform March 16 in a two-hour live show, 8-10 p.m. EST. The top four finalists
will be announced on May 5, with the series finale May 25-26.

More than 70,000 people turned out at "American Idol" tryouts nationwide for the third season, according to Fox.

Past "American Idol" winners include Kelly Clarkson and Ruben Studdard, who both had top 10 releases.
But the biggest Idol is 2003 runner-up Clay Aiken. Studdard returned to perform his latest recording
Wednesday, and even made Cowell nostalgic. "I will pay you to re-enter," Cowell told him.
