Little (Brooke) White Lies

After last night's disastrous, forgetful performance, Brooke White said the words had never gotten away from her on "Idol" before ... oh really? Because it felt like Groundhog Day to us.


Nothing like fibbing for a little sympathy to get a few extra, much needed votes, right?

16. She didn't lie. The first time she restarted a song was because she started in the wrong key, not because she had forgotten the lyrics.

17. Come on all that stress and long hours rehearsing would make me forget the whole song. Why so are people so critical when they are on the outside looking in.

18. Did anyone else think she completely imitated Madonna's performance of the song, right down the breathy, "I'm soooo dying of cancer" voice?

19. She sucks more than any contestant ever. Imagine going to a concert and this happening twice. She needs to be voted off. Whenever you mess up a song, its the lyrics, if it was the arrangement, you altar your performance to meet the arrangement and then fix it from there. She sucks, if she isn't voted off the show is rigged. SHe should have been out earlier and then she would have been able to go to her sisters wedding.

20. Well, at least she didn't talk over the judges last night like she usually does. She must have heard that people don't like that. I think she will be going home tonight.

22. Brooke didn't forget the words the first time she messed up.......... he voice was cracking and she sounded like crap so she stopped after a few notes. Either way, she is the only contestant who has screwed up twice now, the 17 year old forgot Several words in a song on live TV and I think he sucks and he is the one truely playing everyone! I like Brooke and I don't think it's fair that Idol, which I really enjoy watching makes them sing music they don't even like or know. They can show their range while singing their kind of music. I hope David Cook get voted off soon............ I think he's the best and I don't want him to have to be tied to Idol for any longer then he has to be. HE's awesome!

23. Brooke White did NOT forget the words the first time, her timing was off that is why she started over. And if you are going to criticize her, then do it because she is just not the best one out there. She is great, she has an amazing voice, but Carly and David Cook are the two best. She is genuinely a sweet girl, people are so hateful and nasty and judgemental these days, it is great to see someone who is sincerely a nice person.

Posted at 9:56AM on Apr 23rd 2008 by Brooke White is genuinely sweet

24. She didn't lose the words for every breath you take, she started out on the wrong key and started over, bigggggggg difference!!!! come on tmz.... get it right!

25. She didn't forget the lyrics the first time, you idiots.

For whatever reason, she started and stopped. I actually thought that she was really good last night.
Who gives a damn if she started and stopped. It's a live show. Things happen.

And I don't think that she was doing it for attention or sympathy, I think that she's nervous.

I can't believe how petty TMZ can get. Must be a slow news day!

26. In March she didn't forget the lyric, she started on the first wrong note, and restarted. Watch the clip, the judges acknowledge this. It wasn't forgotten lyrics. Now last night, is different, the lyric was gone. But giving her credit the for the march slip. Let's not forget, You all love David A, and he missed a lyric earlier in the season too, while in the top 12.

27. Harvey Levin doesn't care if the story is true. He only cares about dancing on people's graves....

Oh and he loves little boys.....but you all already knew that.

28. David A had his lyrics missed on March 12, on a Beatles night.

29. Listen up Genius Patrol. Imagine your a singer or doing some Karaoke. The arrangement will be there or it won't be there, you have to continue regardless, if you miss the words that is your screw up. She did it twice, She started "Every Breath" and then started over...GAME OVER. Which constitutes as missing or messing up lyrics, so open your eyes folks, she messed up twice on a show that you can't mess up on. Archuleta should have been punished too for his gaffe. This is serious for them, and they want to be professionals, well perform like one!! She sucks, she messed up twice...Please vote her lame ass off the show.

30. I have said from the beginning she is a phony. Even when she gets critiqued by the jusdges she always has to have a comment back, like "I agree," or whatever. I think she is talented but I find her so annoying that I would prefer the cardboard version of her over the real thing any day.
