Hello out there in American Idol world. Tonight is a two-hour episode, and as EPIC as I'm sure it will be *rolls eyes*, I happen to have a life outside of VFTW. Shocking, isn't it? I bet you thought we were all teenage nerds living in our parents' basements, didn't you? Thus, tonight's blog entry will be a relatively short one, but hopefully more entertaining than this season has been so far.

Now that Hollywood week is over, there are 70 contestants left, and they're going to LAS VEGAS!!!!eleventy!!! This is a fine place to send 70 karaoke singers, as between 65 and 70 of these people will probably wind up working here eventually. For this segment of the competition, the singers split into groups, get into costume, and sing hits of the 50s and 60s on the Elvis stage at the Aria hotel. What a theme - this ought to get Meemaw in a tizzy, huh? At least AI is catering to it's core fan base.
