"There's some psychotherapy madness going on there," said Nadia Turner, who was eliminated from American Idol last week. She was referring to the mind games played by Ryan Seacrest as he teasingly made it seem like he was sending Bo Bice packing, before telling her she was out. "It's crazy," she added.
And cruel and unusual punishment. As they dumped on last night's loser, Anwar Robinson (left), he was not only shown the door but his farewell song was CUT OFF in mid-song as the credits rolled. Yeah, they need to get the show done in time, but they wasted too much time on Ryan's Star on the Walk of Fame (for RADIO achievements! HaHa!) and forgot about 7 contestants and their music.
"Dude, they are cruel," Mikalah Gordon recalled of her elimination night. "I was literally going to faint on the floor. I made myself sick. It's like, 'I'm gonna throw up now. Thank you.' "
"One week Ryan was like, 'Carrie, I'm sorry you're going ... to go sit over here with the other people who made it through,'" said contestant Carrie Underwood. "I was like [angry, thinking,] 'Oooh.' It is mean, but you know, it makes for good TV."
Good TV? Like when Ryan told Judd Harris he could sit down, only to turn around and go over to tell him he was out. What the hell is that?
In a television era dominated by reality shows, you can watch a contestant being eliminated from something every hour. But none of them are screwed as badly as the wannabe stars on "American Idol."
