The performances were disappointing this week. Katie did a great job of her song though. I prefer her blonde and her dress was a bit ordinary however. Didn't like Matt's low voice in the song and the "wife beater" t-shirt was a bit much. Paije did a really good job also. Mary did a good job but I'm bored. She shouldn't be on a show that is looking for a pop star. Wagner wasn't even funny and the dancers didn't compensate for his weaknesses. I didn't like Rebecca doing that song. One Direction did pretty good but I wonder about their harmony abilities. So, overall Katie wins the prize this week and she probably deserves it. Aiden deserved to be there this week. Too bad. For some reason I haven't looked forward to the themes for the last 2 weeks. Don't even want to watch. Its not interesting anymore. I still like Simon though and hope he makes the show better. I prefer the judges cooperatively helping the contestants and being very honest with their comments. That is why I liked Simon. He had a good ear and eye also.
