Yeah, I just saw that too. They had a little clip of him performing at last year's finale and then said what better place to start than in Minneapolis. thumbs up!

I wonder how many people will sing Prince songs for their audition. smile
The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

LMAO at Jewel's response to the girl who butchered her song. Can you imagine if Prince was a guest judge and someone did that to one of his songs?!? Now that would be hilarious. He'd be like, "Aww, hell no!"

Yes. She does. I had a good feeling about her.

The other girl who forgets the words to "Kiss" and can't sing even if she had the lyrics in front of her, is FROM Minneapolis.

Wow. How come no one deludes themselves into thinking they can play the piano but EVERYBODY thinks they can sing?

OMG. That girl who tried to sing Kiss was a hot mess. That was too funny. How can you be from Minneapolis, pick a Prince song, and NOT know the words?!? Even my not Prince fan friends know more verses to that song than her.

How funny would it have been if Prince was the guest judge for that though? His facial expressions would have been priceless!

god, if i was prince i wouldn't have let American Idol use my songs - it's embarrassing to the songs themselves to be ruined like this

but that Colombian girl did "kiss" pretty good from what i could see of the five seconds they showed of it

I was rolling after he said that. falloff Them fools destroyed Kiss. It was unbelievable and that girl who sang the song first, what a disgrace. But it was cool to hear all the people in the auditorium sing 1999 in the beginning.thumbs up!
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that
