Long time followers of my Tumblr know I LOVE American Idol and I’ve been enjoying this new ABC version of it. Here are my hot takes of the Top 14

Opinions on the Idol Top 14

Gabby - Her and Cade are your winners. I love her bubbly personality and she can SANG as she put it! She’s the next Carrie Underwood AND can do R&B (Her Ain’t No Way cover had me SLAYED)

Jonny - I love his story about coming to Idol without his family knowing and he’s good, but needs more of a personality. Still like him tho! 

Marcio - He has a great voice! I love his story and it moved America to tears. Also gotta show love for someone from Compton!

Cade - The winner with Gabby. THANK YOU for bringing back some serious rock and roll and he’s a modern day guitar hero. Covering so many classic 60’s/70’s rock artists—maybe he’s the next Robert Plant and in today’s music world I am SO here for it!

Caleb - Scotty 2.0! But seriously, he has an incredible voice and country radio is going to sound great with him

Garrett - He’s cute and is a football player so that’s a plus (though I miss Laine but I’d digress). He’s got a solid Phillip Phillips-esque voice and that’s always a plus in my book.

Jurnee - I see them Sasha vibes haha! But for real she’s a great vocalist and I loved her Top 14 performance the best!

Mara - This young girl has a powerful voice and I LOVE her hair! Crazy to know she’s TEN years younger than me wow I’m old

Dennis - Top 3, he’s incredible and I’ve loved him since his audition! He’s crazy talented and I like the “alternative R&B” label. Unique voice and he’s amazing!

Maddie - I wasn’t into her at first but she is really good! I love to hear a “Folk” type of singer and it’s refreshing. She’s very good and I like her!

Michelle - I love her personality and dancing, but she’s so Tatiana for me. But she has talent so that’s a plus 

Catie - She’s unique and adorable! I wanna hug her and I see Hollywood being an incredible future for her

Ada - Can SANG! May come off a bit screamy/theatrical but that can be harnessed with practice and time. A powerhouse singer and I see incredible things in Ada’s future
