The only interesting thing for me this year is that the truly GIFTED singers may not win. Kiki, Melinda are by far the two best singers but they have no "star quality" in my opinion. I actually think that the kid that beat boxes, I can never remember his name, has the most potential to be a star. At least in the normal age range of the majority of fans. While Melinda is an outstanding talent she has the personality of potato peels. And her bullstojan act of timidness and being so humble is making me sick. I remember earlier in the show when she introduced her "clothing stylist and hair stylist" which were her friends. She's a "diva" but is playing up for the camera now. You can see it a mile away.
