Live Blogging Canadian Idol Results – September 11, 2007

Montage of past Canadian Idol winners.

The Top 10 are performing “You Give Love a Bad Name.” Awww… I miss Greg Neufeld and Dwight d’Eon. In fact, I see so many faces that I miss. Jaydee kicks off the Top 10 singing “Blaze of Glory” and now Brian is singing. Now all the girls are singing and it is pretty decent. The song is now changing to “Livin’ on a Prayer” with Tara and Khalila starting the song. This is not as good as the boys but the girls are okay. Matt and Khalila are singing “I’ll Be There For You.” Brian and Tara are singing together too. Jaydee and Mila are singing together now and are joined by Greg and Martha. The song is “Making Memories”(?). Carly is singing “Always” by herself. Now the group is back to singing “You Give Love a Bad Name.”

Ben Mulroney says that a record was broken last night in terms of voting (almost 5 million votes). He also announces that Eva Avila, Avril Lavigne and Bon Jovi will be performing. The judges are introduced.

Zack said that Jaydee has been consistent all summer but that Brian has been a growing taste that he has learned to savour.

Sass said that this is the toughest show and that they were both great.

Farley said that he is expecting Canada’s taste to be reflected and that last night Jaydee’s youth showed and Brian’s growth showed.

Jake said that because of the people who were allowed to play instruments in this year’s competition, we were able to see growth like we’ve never seen before. He named a lot of people but not Jaydee who, I believe, plays the guitar. He must have forgotten…

===================commercial break======================

Avril talks to Brian and Jaydee and basically advocates not finishing high school if you get a good enough record deal… nice!

She performed “Hot” and it was interesting… does she ever get energetic? She also announced that she will be on tour in 2008. Now she’s performing “When You’re Gone.” These videos will be available on my other site Avril Groupie later tonight (incidentally, I’m not the biggest fan of Avril but someone needs to cover her news, right?).

======================================================

Dave Kerr and Ben are joking around and Dave is pretending to read a newspaper that said he was better looking than Ben.

Footage of Media Idol, terrible but funny! Hilarious! They even crowned a winner!

Ben introduces Brian Melo and shows his hometown at Hamilton Place holding about 2000 fans. One of Brian’’s good friends was interviewed and Brian thanks his fans in “The Hammer” – Hamilton, Ontario.

======================================================

Ben introduces Jaydee and shows a packed arena back in his hometown of Drumheller. Jaydee is really excited gto see a family friend being interviewed. He got all choked up and teary. It was so sweet.

Mila sings “I’m Going Down.”

Khalila sings “Family Portrait”

Martha sings “Power of Love”

Greg sings “This Love” (cue my tears…wah, wah, wah….)

Tara sings “Suspicious Minds”

Matt sings “Whipping Post” (yeah!)

Dwight d’Eon sings “Smooth” (Didn’t Edward Scissorhands wear those pants?)

Carly sings “Sweet Ones”

Jaydee (who misses his cue) and Brian sing “Waiting On the World To Change.” The rest of the Top 10 sing back up.

LOLOLOL!!!!! Will and Grace actor (and Ontarian), Eric McCormack is in the audience. Woohoo! Support your country!

======================================================

A review of the guest performers from this past season.

Bon Jovi is performing “Lost Highway” in their first, live, televised Canadian performance!!!

Now they’re singing “It’s My Life.”

======================================================

Montage of the Top 10 0talking about how great it is to have support and fans (song playing in the back is Dido’s “Thank You“).

This is the last Top 10 performance – they are singing “A Song For You.”

Ben thanks that the fans for their support.

======================================================

Eva Avila is performing her single “Falling for You” and I am so sorry but I do not like the song and I do not like her performance.

She was presented with a platinum record for “Meant To Fly” (wow, that took a long time – where’s the love, Canada?) and a gold record for her album.

======================================================

Jaydee’s journey on the show was shown. Awww… He is so sweet and cute. They said he’s a television star and I agree with that! Now he’s singing “Johnny B. Goode.”

Brian’s journey on the show was shown. No clips without hats, people!!! LOL!!! They showed “Karma Police” which is one of my favorite moments on this whole season – okay on Canadian Idol ever! Now he’s singing “Karma Police.”

Okay, seriously, why doesn’t he ever show his head? Is Voldemort (from Harry Potter) hiding under there?

======================================================

Jaydee and Brian sing “Break on Through to the Other Side” (one of my husband’s favorite Doors songs). Brian and Jaydee each sing a song in their genre and then sing a song together. I’m too nervous to figure out the titles, okay???

======================================================

BEN HAS THE ENVELOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Uhh… what’s with Jake’s glasses. They’re too small! Moving on….

The winner is… BRIAN MELO!!!!!
