And this week in your all new segment of

WTF JUST HAPPENED THERE?!/WTF WERE YOU THINKING?!

Apparently somebody (who should be fired right this instance) thought that it'd be a brilliant idea for the Top 3 of Singapore Idol to perform For Your Entertainment at this week's results show.

Yeah you saw that right.

For-Your-Entertainment
For-Fucking-Your-Entertainment

Now, let's just ignore for one second the fact that this is an Adam Lambert song (which by the way, should have IMMEDIATELY given ANY singer, Singapore Idol losers or not, the reaction to turn and run screaming in the other direction because, well, HELLO?), have you people actually listened to this song? Okay, so at which part of the song did you think, "hey, this song sounds easy, I think the Idol kids can actually sing this!"?

Because if not, I'm going to go ahead and assume that the music directors of the show actually wanted what went down as the BIGGEST FAIL IN THE HISTORY OF SINGAPORE IDOL (and that's saying a lot given Duane's presence this season) to happen. Horrifying doesn't even begin to cut it. It caused me irreparable aural damage and I want to sue Mediacorp for emotional trauma. 

To whichever moron who picked this song: Yeah I know Adam is fabulous and all, but there's a reason why people treat him like a god and people from Singapore Idol are never going to make it in the music industry. IF THIS IS A SONG THAT NOT EVEN ADAM LAMBERT HIMSELF CAN PERFORM LIVE WELL (it's true, unfortunately. but eh, the gods have off days too yada yada) then either you make the contestants lipsync OR YOU CHOOSE SOMETHING THAT SUBSTANDARD SINGERS CAN SING, SAY, SOMETHING BY KRIS ALLEN. (oh wait, then again, that'd make me physically ill too. I'd rather not)

And to the contestants (okay just the Sezairi): dude. what happened? You've either not improved since the last time we actually liked you, or you're actually not that great to begin with, but you seemed awesome last time because of even worse singers like the two other Malay boys whose names I can't remember now. And I can forgive the absolute JOKE of a performance of Play That Funky Music (where you actually had the cahonies to say that it was the Adam Lambert version), but yesterday was just the last straw. Please tell me somebody set you up to sing those runs in FYE, because if not... Worst of all, you're beginning to reeeeally remind me of that boring wanker who won American Idol whilst trying to sing like Adam Lambert, and that pisses me off to no end. 

And yes one last point: YOU PEOPLE DON'T EVEN UNDERSTAND THE SONG. IT'S JUST FUCKING INSULTING TO THE ESSENCE OF THE SONG OKAY?

I feel terribly sorry for myself that I put myself through that performance three times (it was like a train wreck. YOU. JUST. CANNOT. LOOK. AWAY) and I feel even sorrier that we still don't have Youtube evidence. But seriously, watch the rerun on Saturday. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. 

HAHA so evidently the performance made me and lyd fully appreciate the meaning of dumbfounded, horror, shock and disgust. Good times.

Labels: adam lambert is a god... uh i mean what?, pointless post is pointless, random rants, singapore idol makes me laugh
