Hello all. Tonight's episode of Hollywood week was in my opinion boring. First off we are seeing repeat scenes of 16 year old Symone Black who sadly took a fall off the stage on the first night. Several rush to her aid but not the judges who just stayed in their spots making comments. What on earth was wrong with them I ask? Jennifer Lopez and Randy Jackson do eventually go down to check out the situation but Steven Tyler just stays in his seat. I have to admit I was disappointed with the judges on this. Luckily Symone did wake up and was taken to emergency to get checked out. We see later in the show that she had advanced to the group rounds. Also it seems she was dehydrated and that accounted for her fainting spell and fall. She is good to go now for the grueling group rounds and does find a group who accepted her with open arms as seen in the clips we saw.
Before all the footage of the group round activity we seen that some girl named Rhianna, Ethan Jones (liked this one) and Lauren Mink are sent home. It is a yes for Jeremy Rosado and Neco Smith. While it is still fairly early in the competition I do not think the judges are putting through people who are unique at all at this point. Several who I liked in the early auditions have gone home while they keep others who do not interest me at all. However that is just my opinion. One last note 185 have made it to the group rounds.
I will not bore you with all the details of the rest of the hour as it included the usual scenes of trying to find a group, the arguing among the groups, a little bit of stage mothering and how tired the contestants are. The worst part of all this is sadly Amy Brumfield (the tent girl) has gotten the flu and we see numerous others who are catching the "bug". Not a good start to trying to shine within a group.
Our hour ends with the first group (The Bettys) who were focused alot on this segment taking the stage. Next week we will finally get to see them perform so hopefully those two nights of the competition will be more interesting.
Until then have a good week all!
