random thoughts.

somehow, and i'm not sure how it happened, but i am the number one search result when you search yahoo for frenchie davis. ?? so, so strange. and wouldn't you think that the american idol website would be in the top 20? nope. strange. very strange. see for yourself!

tonight i am going to see chicago with d and renee. i am excited. see, i love love love musicals. i love movie musicals more. i am very excited about the return of the movie musical... there is no where else where people can get away with reaking into song than in a dark theater, and so few people go to see real theater, so movie musicals can bring this to many more people.... plus there are things you just can't do in a live show, so the movie versions of musicals are a bit more spectacular, and we all know that spectacle = goodness. ;-)

i think i am babbling. i have a great idea for a redesign (this one is just for the interim... ) but it will take a while... it's a challenge, so i like it. ;-) anyway, we'll see how long it takes.

UPDATE, 2/12/03
ok, so i am really pissed about frenchie getting kicked off amerian idol.
i, for one, will no longer be watching the show, since she was the only one worth watching it for.
;-(

You're also number two for Google's results for Frenchie Davis. Chicago rules all!

Nikki MkKibbin was a stripper and she made it to the final 3 on American Idol. And when did FOX all of a sudden get morals?! I think the site of a neked big ol' black girl just makes Simon's skin crawl and he believes America thinks as narrowly as he does. Frenchie is a DIVA in the making. Look at some of our other Diva's in Hollywood and tell me which one of them is DRAMA FREE! NOT ONE! D.I.V.A -Dramatic Inspiring Vivacious Just my thoughts.

I love you Frenchie! I only saw the entertainment news, as I hate the reality shows, but I caught a glimpse, and cannot wait to see/hear that beautiful voice again!

alvin said...

Frenchie is only human and a beutiful one at that! She really has a wonderful voice that should be heard all over the world!
What video did she appear in anyway and is it so awful that she would be disqualified after such a great performance?
Frenchie should be judged for her vocal talent alone and not for something that has nothing to do with "American Idol."
Best of Luck Frenchie!

Fred said...

I totally agree about Frenchie -- anyone remember a few years ago when the Miss America crown was taken back from the winner for a similar past indiscretion? We all know how that ruined Vanessa Williams' career, right? And her Miss America runner-up/replacement? What was her name again?
I also agree with you about CHICAGO -- one of the few movie musicals that I think may be even better than the stage production. I'm wondering, though, why Dame Edna was not cast as Mary Sunshine -- that role has traditionally been played by a female impersonator and The Dame would have been perfect.

I don't feel that frenchie should have got kicked off the show. It same like everytime someone try to reach to the top someone always have to come along and dig up some dirt about a person and all i have to say is that she is one of the top perfomers on the show and if they didn't kick her off for that reason then society probably would have use her weight as a reason to eliminate her. Keep your head up Frenchie. You will make it because no one is perfect.

margo said...

I think this was a way to get Frenchie Davis out of the show due to the record industry's perception of what an American Idol should look like! They knew that with her in the game, there was no competition, she had the talent of song. They would have dug up anything to get her off. American Idol Sucks!

not a frenchie fan said...

Frenchie got kicked out because she posed naked for an Internet site that advertised itself as showing pictures of underage girls. She was 19 at that time but the link to child porn is still a big no-no in America, taTu notwithstanding.

Soulstice said...

I heard Frenchie has her own website, does anyone know what it is? That is what I was searching for when I found this site.
I agree with the majority here. Big and black does not equal American Idol in the eyes of Fox. Let's see how far Kim and fat boy (I can't remember his name)go. Kim may last a minute, not too big, and not too dark. Big boy may be just under a minute as America loves black men (at least the non-threatening pudgy kind) ;). Eventually the firm that talley's the votes will miss a couple hundred thousand votes, to help remind us that America's Idol could never have too much pigment and definately not have anything larger than a 32 inch waist line.
Frenchie KEEP YA HEAD UP!! Waiting on your album release date.

Ive always said since day one of American Idol that they (Producers)didnt want a Black American Idol. Frenchie HAS talent, and the voice, she was a threat to the others. Hang in there Frenchie noone is perfect. You will make it in the Music Business. American Idol just gave me a reason to stop watching.

Beverley said...

I agree with everyones thoughts concerning Frenchie. She really has Talent. I watched american idiol with my 9 year old daughter every week and when I saw Frenchie I said look that girl can sing and look how beautiful and confident she is. I truly believed America would have realized an American idol could be any Beautiful Talented American person, no matter how packaged and made her the next Americam idiol Maybe Fox realized that also and as soon as they found any dirt she was gone. They had to do it fast because every week we loved Frenchie more and more. Frenchie don't worry I will be patiently waiting for your CD cuz you got it girl

I am in Canada and unfortunately cannot vote. FRENCHIE WAS THE BEST AND WAS GOING TO WIN. There is no question that there was no competition in the whole finalist group to achieve the "goosebump factor" and "raising the game" that Simon was talking about in tuesday's show. I work in a large office with hundreds of people and everybody agreed Frenchie was deserving of being the next American Idol. She's sexy, upbeat, great personality, great look, and SIZZLES with energy. FRENCHIE, I know you may be reading all of these internet postings, so I say to you: you started a legacy nobody will forget you. COME UP TO CANADA - "CANADIAN IDOL" STARTS AUDITIONS VERY SOON. THEY ARE COMING TO NOVA SCOTIA IN MAY 2003.

sally said...

oh please the girl was on a porn website and there is no excuse. Shes like the female rkelly just not as nasty okay. She screams more then she sings. Get over it.

Mac said...

You're also #1 on Google. Congratulations!

Jason Buckley said...

Searching for Frenchie Davis is how I found this site. Where are those pictures is what I want to know.

Kimb27 said...

Since when did the music industry become a fountain of moral highground? It's really sad that they kicked her for having some nude pictures. She didn't create the web site that used her photos. She posed for a camera for money, and had no say in where her pics were used once she signed the model release. She should be judged by her singing.

Teresa said...

I can't believe that you even tried to put Ruben in the top 2. Cause he is the best that is on that show. And I have news for you people. If you even think that he is that bad you are deaf. If he is voted off than I know a lot of people that will stop watching this show for now on.

cindy binnings said...

You don'tnow your ASS from a hole in the ground about singing, truly singing. If you did, YOU would have chosen TALENT not sad eyes.
