Cataldi American Idol “Spoiler Alert!”

Angelo Cataldi knows himself some American Idol, so warning:  if you don’t want to know how the season is going to go, proceed with caution.

Hi, Kerri-Lee.

Here goes . . . .    

I’ve never been very good at predicting sports events, but American Idol? I’m a genius. So here’s what’s going to happen over the next few weeks. If you don’t want to know, move on right now. I’m never wrong on this stuff. . . .

     Because Middle America has so much say in the voting, all of the singers with eccentricities are on their way out. Jason Castro and his dreads is sure to go soon, as is the amazingly talented Carly Smithson and her ridiculous tattoos. (Her husband and his face tattoo is no help, either.) Michael Johns is pretty terrific, but that Aussie accent is going to hurt when it’s down to the final four. After all, this is American Idol. Brooke White is going to get the boot because she can’t shut up when the judges are talking. Before them, though, will be the departure of Kristy Lee Cook because she can’t sing, then Syesha Mercado because she thinks she’s Whitney Houston. In the end, it’s going to come down to the two Davids, Archuleta and Cook. Either could win. I’m going to guess it’ll be the 17-year-old Archuleta because America doesn’t want to see him cry if he doesn’t. Ultimately, Cook will sell a lot more music, because he’s the best this year..
