American Idol Instant Recap: La’Porsha Renae, “Elastic Heart”
Biggest disappointment for me tonight was no fro.
At this point I want to hear La’Porsha sing the phone book because it might give others a chance.
Did I know the Sia song she sang? Nope. Not a word. Never heard it. If my 4-year old don’t know it, I don’t either. Still, just another solid vocal. She’s performing on such a high level I don’t know what she would have to do to sound bad.
All told, I don’t think this was La’Porsha’s best night – last week won’t be touched – but it didn’t have to be. She’s in the drivers’ seat for the finale. This was the perfect week to have a safe week. You don’t win Idol in the final four. Does La’Porsha know that? Maybe.
Next week? Different story. Next week is when Idol gets won. Whoever wins Top 3 wins the show. Go back, look at the performances and most of the winners ran away with the Final 3 performance before taking the crown.
My expectations for La’Porsha are so unreasonably high, tonight was a little bit of a let-down. I’m OK with it because of where she’s at and how important next week is.
Because I have a feeling next week is when we’re gonna see La’Porsha enter the Idol lexicon with something that people will never forget.
I’ve never heard of Sia in my life and I really like Idol. It’s obvious that they don’t want to show her face for some reason. As a true Idol fan the producer should be fired for such a stupid choice and production.
