Will Joanne Borgella Make It To Round 2?

Will Joanne Borgella Make It To Round 2?

Joanne Borgella didn't have a good performance tonight on American Idol. I've never heard this song on her MySpace page either. Surprisingly, Randy and Paula were trying to be nice, but you could see they weren't really thrilled about her song choice or performance tonight. Of course, Simon Cowell didn't cut Joanne Borgella any slack and blasted away when it was his turn.

I have to admit, I wasn't crazy about the song Joanne Borgella chose either and I think her delivery was off as well. We know Joanne Borgella can certainly sing and perform. As a Plus Size Model, she's no stranger to performing in front of crowds so it's hard to say it was nerves performing in front of a crowd.

Perhaps it was a bad song choice for Joanne Borgella, but I believe she wasn't as good as she could have been.

The nice thing about tonights American Idol competition is that it's not up to just me, or you or the Judges. Whether we see Joanne Borgella next week is up to the American Idol viewers.

Can Joanne Borgella Survive?

Can Joanne Borgella Survive?

Joanne Borgella is a very creative and talented artist, but is she good enough for the Top 12? It remains to be seen whether or not Joanne Borgella make American Idol's Top 12.

A Few Things Joanne Borgella Will Have To Do

Joanne Borgella will have to sing like she has never sung before. Song selection is critical and choosing the wrong song will send Joanne Borgella home from the American Idol competition.

Not only is the song selection critical, but Joanne Borgella will have to be at her best. As there are only a few true amateurs in the Top 24, this will make it harder for Joanne Borgella to reach the top 12.

It's no secret any longer that most of the Top 24 American Idol contestants have had either previous recording contracts or professional experience. This is something Joanne Borgella as well as the other American Idol contenders will have to deal with.

What about the American Idol judges? Well, now that they're in the weekly competition, the Judges decision will not affect Joanne Borgella as much as in previous shows when Paula Abdul, Randy Jackson and Simon Cowell had the final decision. No, the judges will critique Joanne Borgella but it will be the American Idol viewers who have the final say in whether or not Joanne Borgella stays or goes.

Does Looks Hurt or Help Joanne Borgella?

Let's face it, Joanne Borgella is one of the better looking contestants this year on American Idol. Whether we like it or not, looks matter and this is an advantage for Joanne Borgella. Not only do looks count, but the wardrobe selection also matters, again, Joanne Borgella has shown style and class when choosing what to, or what not, to wear on stage.

Not only do looks count, but stage presence also counts and this is another positive that Joanne Borgella has. Joanne Borgella commands the stage and is entertaining to watch move around the stage. Interacting with the audience is another area where Joanne Borgella shines. Viewers like seeing performers interacting with the crowds.

What, If Any, Changes Should Joanne Borgella Make?

It's no secret that the American Idol Judges do not like to see contestants perform easy songs. They want the performers stretch their musical limits. This may be one area where Joanne Borgella does not have an edge. Joanne Borgella will have to resist the temptation so choose easy songs and pick hard songs that will not only impress the judges, but the Viewers as well.

Since there's been 6 years of American Idol so far, Joanne Borgella or the other contestants should not have a problem choosing songs. They should know what the viewers and judges like.

Another area that Joanne Borgella needs to stay away from is trying to sound like a famous performer. We've seen many American Idol contestants go down because they tried to be like someone else other than their self. Let's watch and see who makes this mistake this year.

Also, Joanne Borgella will want to watch what she says during interviews each week. We all know the camera looks for weeknesses. Joanne Borgella doesn't want to be seen appearing week or over confident. Both turn off Judges and TV watchers. There have been several times in the past that American Idol viewers were turned off by contestants appearing whining or cocky. Joanne Borgella will have to avoid making either of these mistakes.

Joanne Borgella Will Need Help From Other American Idol Competitors

Just selecting the right song, wearing the right clothes and having a perfect performance may not be enough for Joanne Borgella. Joanne Borgella will need help from other American Idol contestants as well. This means that at least one contestant will have to have poor song selection or have a poor performance for Joanne Borgella to make it to the American Idol top 12.

This will be true all the way to the end. As long as viewers dislike one other contestant more than they dislike Joanne Borgella, there'll be a spot in the Top 12 waiting.

What Impact Will The American Idol Judges Have?

If history is any indication, the American Idol Judges criticism will have little effect on whether or not Joanne Borgella makes it into the top 12. In the past, Simon, Paul and Randy have critisized contestants who made it all the way to the end. Although Joanne Borgella may have feelings that get hurt by bad comments from the Judges, it will be the viewers who ultimately decide on whether or not Joanne Borgella makes it into the American Idol Top 12. For example, last year Taylor Hicks was critisized several times by Simon as being nothing more than a lounge singer, yet viewers ultimately chose him as the American Idol for Season 6. Joanne Borgella will need to make sure the crowds are pleased, not the Judges.

What Do The American Idol Viewers Like?

American Idol is really about contemporary Pop music. That is the most popular music played today and that's where the money is and American Idol knows this. This is why country singers, Blues and Rock singers have all had a hard time making it into the Top 12. They're trying to sing songs that they are not familiar or comfortable with. I believe Chris Daughtery is a fine example. He probably made it further than any other Non-Pop singer and by all rights, was by far the best of all of Season 6 contestants. So how did Taylor Hicks win? Because he had a better stage performance than Chris and could sing popular songs while doing it. Look at where Chris is now at the top of the charts. It's been stated that Taylor Hicks has just lost his contract. If Joanne Borgella wants to make it to the top, song selection and stage performance had better please the younger Pop loving generation.

All in all, Joanne Borgella has a pretty good chance of making American Idol's Top 12. If you're a fan of Joanne Borgella, you need to get on the phone each week and vote to make sure it happens. Only time will tell whether or not Joanne Borgella is in the Top 12.
