Alexis Grace

It was Grand Ole Opry Week on American Idol last night, lorded over by the great Randy Travis.

Michael Sarver, who prides himself on being a roughneck, was first up and he was right in his comfort zone singing Garth Brooks “Ain’t Going Down Til the Sun Comes Up,” which leaves no room for error with more damn lyrics that any song except maybe “It’s the End of the World as We Know It” and zero time to breathe. It was right in his wheel house and if that’s as good as he gets his good is good but it’s not great.

If you were hoping to show your support for Alexis Grace and weren’t paying attention during this Tuesdays’s American Idol, featuring their first-ever Top 13, you might have gotten more than you bargained for when you called in to vote for Alexis.

What do you mean, 'What am I wearing?' Sweatpants!

American Idol has never needed to have a 13th call in number before and, perhaps being shortsighted, only purchased 866 numbers up to 12 (1-866-IDOLS-01 through 1-866-IDOLS-12).

More fat got cut last night but three finalists made it through and they were...

Pink haired, Avril Lavigne-esque Alexis Grace, who easily edged out the other girls in a year with not many major female challengers.

Roughneck Michael Sarver who had the balls to talk back to Simon and seems to have country fans on his side.

And Danny Gokey, whose wife passed away four weeks before his Idol audition.

All we can say is Tatiana del Toro can suck it! Peace out, bitch. Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

Until next week: The Sauce, Out.
