Sexual Chocolate & Bikini Girl

2009 January 15

“Give a hand to my band, Sexual Chocolate.”
- Coming To America (another awesomely bad movie!)

No, I’m not posting a blog about some new porn superhero dynamic duo.  I’m posting a blog about another a guilty pleasure of mine, American Idol.  Season 8 kicked off on Tuesday night and I couldn’t be happier.

I do find the whack-jobs somewhat amusing.  The real reasons I like it are that I secretly wish I were good enough to be on the show and that I love Simon’s obnoxious comments.  In fact, I love Simon in general.  Yes, he can be mean, but he’s rarely wrong.  He does have a weakness for hot girls (what heterosexual man doesn’t?) though, which leads to the first of the aforementioned dynamic duo…

Bikini Girl – This girl had a smokin’ hot ass, and wasn’t afraid to show it.  In fact, she showed up to the audition in an itsy bitsy bikini that kept creeping up on her, especially after she jumped up and down with excitement at getting voted through to the next round.  Randy encouraged even more jumping.  Then she made out with Ryan and jumped into the pool at his request.  She is somewhat pretty, and may have some marginal singing talent.  It didn’t appear that she was moved to the next round based on her talent though.  Well, at least she got her 15 minutes, most likely an offer from Playboy, and made Simon’s, Randy’s and Ryan’s day.

Sexual Chocolate – This guy actually called himself Sexual Chocolate.  He wasn’t sure why one of his friends called him that once but thought it was funny enough to get a ginormous tattoo (that appeared to be misspelled) across the entire top of his back.  None of the judges pointed out that this was the name of Randy’s band in Coming To America.  Maybe they don’t think that movie is as awesomely bad as hubby and I do.  Unfortunately, he wasn’t wearing a bikini so he isn’t going to Hollywood.

I’d love to post video of their auditions here but Fox removed them all from YouTube.  :(

I like the new judge Cara.  She’s a talented singer and song-writer.  She went at it with Bikini Girl, which I’m sure made the guys’ day even more (cat-fights have that effect, hubby definitely enjoyed it).  There isn’t any weird cattiness between Cara and Paula, which is nice.  I hope they don’t decide to go down that road.  They don’t need any help with their ratings.  In fact, Paula actually behaved like a normal person. 

I really liked the first two episodes and can’t wait for next week.  I like how they are focusing a little bit less on the freaks and a little more on the people with some actual talent.  Although, I could have lived without Bikini Girl.

Thanks for stopping by!

    We just got done watching both shows tonight. American Idol is one of my guilty pleasure too. Yeah, Bikini Girl may have won over the guys, but she pretty much alienated the female judges.

    Oh, and remember how much Simon hated Clay Aiken? When Simon hates one of the guys, they can do NOTHING right in his eyes–no matter how good they sound.

    Ugh! I hate Clay Aiken!

    Yeah. I’m not a fan either–but there were nights when he was on Idol that he sounded really good–and it was soo funny to see how Simon would do everything in his power not to acknowledge it–and it was mostly because he hated his looks. haha

    I work nights and have never actually seen the show but I was looking for highlights I read about. I’m glad you mentioned they were removed from youtube as I was seriously doubting my searching skills.

    Though I really do enjoy seeing all of the horrible singers in the first weeks I thought these first 2 shows were really good with a lot of talented people. I thought Simon was nicer than usual and do like the new judge (so far) – though I like Simon whether he’s nasty or nice. I just want to know what is wrong with people — would you honestly tell a friend or family member they are a good singer when they absolutely suck????

    I personally prefer to refer to Bikini Girl as “Bobblehead Girl”. Did no one else notice that she couldn’t sing without looking like a bobblehead???? She has gotsta go!!

    I stand corrected. He didn’t like Daughtry did he??!! I almost stopped watching when he was voted off. But, Simon is still funny. :)

    As I recall, Simon didn’t think Clay was marketable because of his looks. He did acknowledge his singing talent, right? Looking back, Clay was an amazing singer and I overlooked his dorkiness because of that. I don’t have stats on his cd sales, but now he’s just a cheesy-Manilow-type-wannabe, no? I was a big Clay fan during his run on Idol because I couldn’t get over his voice but I haven’t purchased a single song he’s put out since. I have followed Daughtry, saw him in concert with Bon Jovi. I had sweet dreams that night! ;)

    I know, we talk about that too….friends & family telling these people they are good….that’s just mean.
