Michael Sarver Eliminated on American Idol

March 27, 2009

Stevie Wonder hijacked American Idol Thursday night, performing a slew of rocking hits: “My Cherie Amor,” “Superstitious,” “Overjoyed,” and “All About the Love Again.” 

Motown Week mentor Smokey Robinson also showed up, only his performance was a snoozefest duet with Joss Stone, while season two winner Ruben Studdard sang some song that made him sweat like a hostage.
At the end of the night, though, the lights went down as always, and oil rigger Michael Sarver was eliminated.

“Now I have to sing after Stevie, oh crap,” Sarver said, before singing a rendition of “Ain’t Too Proud to Beg” by the Temptations that had the judges considering the use of their veto.
Scott Macintyre and Matt Giraud joined the eliminated Sarver in the bottom three, making us again wonder, who is the world is voting for Megan Joy???

Let’s get it right America!!

Besties!!!!

President Barack Obama presents Stevie Wonder with the Library of Congress Gershwin Prize for Popular Song in the White House Wednesday.
The award celebrates “a composer or performer for their lifetime contributions to popular music,” like Wonder’s 1970 jam “Signed, Sealed, Delivered I’m Yours,” which soundtracked Obama’s campaign these last few months.
What an incredible honor!!!
