My guilty pleasure

I usually watch the opening auditions because I get a good laugh at people in general. From there on out though I don't care much. This year was different. Nursing the broken home I stayed in more than usual and got hooked. You become a part of the story and begin to cheer on your favorites. I've never voted either, until this year. Dr says I'm a dork now. (As if he has room to talk) A's favorite was Ace. Hot yes, but not enough talent to be the American Idol. My favorite had been Chris. When America screwed up (we seem to have lots of voting issues, Bush is case in point) I took my second favorite, Taylor. I was informed by both Dr and A that Katharine would win because she's so beautiful. I don't disagree that she's absolutely stunning. However, Taylor has the talent. I love his personality and voice. Plus I kinda feel like I won too because I proved them both wrong. :) Last nights show was pretty good. I hate that they took 2 hours to announce the winner, but the guest appearances were worth it. Except for Toni Braxton. It's a good thing that she looked amazing because I couldn't hear her at all. The whole award idea was great. Clay coming out and suprising the fan was very sweet. Once again Taylor stole the show with his thanks at the end. He's seems like a very nice guy. So with much congratulations I welcome Taylor Hicks to the American Idol title. He deserves it! Best wishes for your future Taylor.
