On last night's splendiferous, Sayesha-ejecting American Idol results show—like nasty walnut chunks in maple ice cream, she was utterly ruining our pure, David-savoring experience—third season Idol winner Fantasia Barrino stopped by the Karoakedome to perform. And yet "perform" seems not quite the sufficient term in this instance—rather, she seemed literally belched from some fiery, subterranean afterworld miles beneath CBS Television City, accompanied by a chorus of winged backup-demons. The audience—many of whom were still enjoying the pleasant, torpor-inducing effects of David Archuleta singing about "fishes in the ocean"—reacted as though they had just been smacked against the side of the head with a hooker's club foot.
On last night's splendiferous, Sayesha-ejecting Anarchy soon broke out in the relative peace-loving community of the arm-swaying pit, as all attempts at enacting their primary, limb-waving duties were rendered instantly futile by the tuneless, arrhythmic morass. It wasn't long before severed limbs were spotted flying into the bleachers; the sight of several freshly gimped Pepperdine sorority girls running screaming for the exits was the last home viewers glimpsed of the carnage before stage manager Debbie frantically waved towards the control booth to cut to commercial.

that performance was all kinds of awesome. she made david archuleta look like sunny von bulow.
Are low button suit jackets in style again? Please let it be so! It can revive so much of my wardrobe.
wtf did i just watch?
Simon's face during that was the best part. Never has he expressed so much with no words.....
Perfect.
Hey, I pay good money for a club foot smacking.
Just ask for the "McCartney."
Sister! What happened to yo hair!?
I discovered two things from last night's show:
1. I kinda like Fantasia. She's cool.
2. David Archuleta IS Dan Fogelberg. Not just a good copy, but the real fucking thing, in the flesh.
between the time frame of 1:01-0:59, Simon was either thinking of "Is that color flaming hot cheetos red"...or "WTF is she saying in jive"
mercy, that child is something! i'm likin' her. i'm sure archuleta's head exploded backstage.
@Fama Est: i don't think so. but fanny doesn't seem to care. who else mixes kool-aid hair, suit jackets, and braces, and gets away with it.
go on, girl!
Yes, it was a textbook, Siriano Hot Mess, but miles more entertaining than anything on A.I. for the past 4 weeks! I loved Fantasia from the start, and she does not disappoint. That song will probably sound amazing as a studio track... not so much live. But seriously, she can scream better than most of these kids sing.
They just need to let Fantasia become the first ever Double American Idol already.
@kookla: the question is, who to dethrone? ruben studdard or taylor hicks?
@Nomi Malone: No brainer, those two already dethroned themselves. Last I saw Hicks, he was on the back of a milk carton.
that was the look of simon falling out of love with her. he loves the chocolate chunk
I expected Daniel Plainview to run out behind Fantasia shrieking, "I've abandoned my boy!" I nearly had a religious experience watching Idol, and as usual - NOT by choice.
fantasia=afro.punk!
she rawked it!
I somehow missed Fantasia's season the first time around, but every performance I've seen since has me befuddled...she clearly has enormous talent and stage presence, but I can't really say I've ever heard her sing anything I've enjoyed listening to.
Fantasia worked it the fuck out! That performance was every kind of awesome known to man and then some. They should just end the season right now because there is no way that either of the David's can even dream of being that amazing. Go 'Tasia!!
Fantasia and that girl who won the first year are the only true stars this show has created. Looks like Fan was channeling some early Tina Turner. Now that's showgirlship
I couldn't believe what I was watching last night. That performance made my balls explode. And Simon's face said it all.
Oh, and since noone else brought it up:
+ Watch video
Thank God Defamer keeps me updated 'cause I just don't have the stomach to sit through an entire episode.
@Benny: Simon's face said, "uh oh, nodoro wore off and now I have schweatty, schweatty balls."
Her most batshit-insane performance yet!
