‘American Idol,’ The Day After: Dishing About the Top 24
This week on American Idol, the top 24 contestants moving on to the sorta-live Season 15 semifinals were finally revealed. And while there were a few shocking omissions (what the heck happened to Jessica Cabral???), and there is a bit of a diversity problem (lots of guitar-slinging guys and quirky girls; hardly any R&B singers), overall, this is a very strong group.
So here to hash it all out with me is Season 6 Idol alum and my “The Day After” co-host Brandon Rogers. This may be our longest webisode yet – probably because Brandon insisted on calling out by name every top 51 contestant who didn’t make it past the Green Mile on Thursday night. Talk about being inclusive! But for you diehards out there, this is the most in-depth Idol discussion on the Internet. Enjoy.
