Bye Bye Ramiele Malubay

I was so sad to see Ramiele Malubay get voted off so early in the american idol show. She was by far the most talented female vocalist. But let's face it, singing country music was not and is not Ramiele's forte. In fact, judging by the show, there's not many of the contestants who were good at singing country music.

I'm not to worried about where Ramiele will end up. She'll probably take a little time off and work on her Rock Collection. Obviously she'll be on the American Idol tour but I'd also look down the road for her to cut a record deal. And it's also a good bet that she'll be a huge hit back in the Phillipines.

I miss seeing her every week. I miss her music. I miss her funny jokes and outgoing personality. Ramiele has the talent and now she has some stage experience that will take her far in this industry. I can't wait to see where she'll end up next.

Ramiele Malubay Delivers on American Idol!

Ramiele Malubay Delivers on American Idol!



Ramiele Malubay rocked the house tonight on American Idol. I wish that song was on Ramiele Malubay's MyPace page! She even blew away the judges with her song and performance. She was relaxed, was having fun and just commanded the stage. Sadly, few other American Idol contestants could do that tonight.

I've felt that ever since her audition, that this Filipino bombshell would go a long, long way in the American Idol competition. Not only is Ramiele Malubay very talented, but she has a great stage performance. I can see her as Season 7's American Idol. She can sing a variety of music, from Pop and Country to Hip Hop Music.

However, no matter what Paula, Randy, Simon or myself think, it's up to American Idol viewers to decide whether or not she continues on. I think it's a no brainer that the viewers will vote to send Ramiele Malubay to the next round!

Is Ramiele Malubay Good Enough For American Idol's Top 12?

Is Ramiele Malubay Good Enough For American Idol's Top 12?

ramiele malubayRamiele Malubay is an excellent and gifted artist, but is she really good enough for American Idol's Top 12? No one knows for sure, it's yet to be seen whether or not Ramiele Malubay is good enough to make American Idol's Top 12. The American Idol viewers will get to decide that one.


A Few Things Ramiele Malubay Will Have To Do

Ramiele Malubay will have to reach deep down and pull out good songs to capture viewers hearts and votes. Song selection will be important and choosing the wrong song will send Ramiele Malubay home from the American Idol competition.

The song selection very critical for her, but Ramiele Malubay will have to be at her best. As there are only a few true amateurs in the Top 24, this will make it harder for Ramiele Malubay to reach the top 12.

It's no secret to anyone any longer that most of the Top 24 American Idol competitors have had either previous recording contracts or professional experience. This is something Ramiele Malubay as well as the other American Idol contenders will have to deal with.


What about the American Idol judges?

Now that Ramiele Malubay is in the weekly competition, the Judges decision will not affect Ramiele Malubay as much as in previous shows when Paula Abdul, Randy Jackson and Simon Cowell had the final decision. No, the judges will critique Ramiele Malubay but it will be the American Idol viewers who have the final say in whether or not Ramiele Malubay stays or goes.


Will Looks Hurt or Help Ramiele Malubay?

Let's face it, Ramiele Malubay is one of the better looking competitors this year on American Idol. Whether we like it or not, looks matter and this is an advantage for Ramiele Malubay. Not only do looks count, but the wardrobe selection also matters, again, Ramiele Malubay has shown style and class when choosing what to, or what not, to wear on stage.

Not only do looks count, but stage presence also counts and this is another positive that Ramiele Malubay has. Ramiele Malubay commands the stage and is entertaining to watch move around the stage. Interacting with the audience is another area where Ramiele Malubay shines. Viewers like seeing performers interacting with the crowds.


What Changes Ramiele Malubay Has To Make?

It's no secret that the American Idol Judges do not like to see competitors perform easy songs. They want the performers stretch their musical limits. This may be one area where Ramiele Malubay does not have an edge. Ramiele Malubay will have to resist the temptation so choose easy songs and pick hard songs that will not only impress the judges, but the Viewers as well.

Since there's been 6 years of American Idol so far, Ramiele Malubay or the other competitors should not have a problem choosing songs. They should know what the viewers and judges like.

Another area that Ramiele Malubay needs to stay away from is trying to sound like a famous performer. We've seen many American Idol competitors go down because they tried to be like someone else other than their self. Let's watch and see who makes this mistake this year.

Also, Ramiele Malubay will want to watch what she says during interviews each week. We all know the camera looks for weeknesses. Ramiele Malubay doesn't want to be seen appearing week or over confident. Both turn off Judges and TV watchers. There have been several times in the past that American Idol viewers were turned off by competitors appearing whining or cocky. Ramiele Malubay will have to avoid making either of these mistakes.


Ramiele Malubay Will Need Help From Other American Idol Competitors

Just selecting the right song, wearing the right clothes and having a perfect performance may not be enough for Ramiele Malubay. Ramiele Malubay will need help from other American Idol competitors as well. This means that at least one contestant will have to have poor song selection or have a poor performance for Ramiele Malubay to make it to the American Idol top 12.

This will be true all the way to the end. As long as viewers dislike one other contestant more than they dislike Ramiele Malubay, there'll be a spot in the Top 12 waiting.


Will The American Idol Judges Opinions Have An Affect?

If history is any indication, the American Idol Judges criticism will have little effect on whether or not Ramiele Malubay makes it into the top 12. In the past, Simon, Paul and Randy have critisized competitors who made it all the way to the end. Although Ramiele Malubay may have feelings that get hurt by bad comments from the Judges, it will be the viewers who ultimately decide on whether or not Ramiele Malubay makes it into the American Idol Top 12. For example, last year Taylor Hicks was critisized several times by Simon as being nothing more than a lounge singer, yet viewers ultimately chose him as the American Idol for Season 6. Ramiele Malubay will need to make sure the crowds are pleased, not the Judges.


What Do The American Idol Viewers Like?

American Idol is really about contemporary Pop music. That is the most popular music played today and that's where the money is and American Idol knows this. This is why country singers, Blues and Rock singers have all had a hard time making it into the Top 12. They're trying to sing songs that they are not familiar or comfortable with. I believe Chris Daughtery is a fine example. He probably made it further than any other Non-Pop singer and by all rights, was by far the best of all of Season 6 competitors. So how did Taylor Hicks win? Because he had a better stage performance than Chris and could sing popular songs while doing it. Look at where Chris is now at the top of the charts. It's been stated that Taylor Hicks has just lost his contract. If Ramiele Malubay wants to make it to the top, song selection and stage performance had better please the younger Pop loving generation.

All in all, Ramiele Malubay has a pretty good chance of making American Idol's Top 12. If you're a fan of Ramiele Malubay, you need to get on the phone each week and vote to make sure it happens. Only time will tell whether or not Ramiele Malubay is in the Top 12.

Ramiele Malubay Makes To 24

Ramiele Malubay makes the cut to the top 24 of American Idol. She is one of our favorites and I'm glad to see the judges thought she was good enough to continue on. Ramiele Malubay has a long future in American Idol I believe.

Ramiele Malubay advanced in American Idol's competition into the Top 24. Ramiele Malubay was one of the favorites and easily won the spot in the Top 24 American Idol list.

The next stage for Ramiele Malubay and other American Idol hopefuls is the weekly competiton rounds leading up to American Idol's Top 12. Unlike previous American Idol competition's, these are voted on by you the viewer, not determined by the judges. No one doubts that Ramiele Malubay has what it takes to make the American Idol top 12. All that stands in the way is a poor performance or poor song choice, or perhaps even a bad night by the judges.

Ramiele Malubay certainly has a bank of songs to choose from. However, as we've seen in the past, some American Idol hopefuls do a poor job of choosing songs and this could be Ramiele Malubay's downfall on the American Idol stage.

Ramiele Malubay will need the smooth yet powerful voice to help advance in the competition, no doubt. And let’s face it. There have been American Idol contestants in the past who’ve made it a long ways in the compeition that wasn’t as talented as Ramiele Malubay. But we all know that sometimes it’s not the most talented that go on to the final 12 in American Idol competition, sometimes it’s nothing more than a local favorite getting their hometown (or home state or home country…read Sanjiya) to vote for them.

Ramiele Malubay has what it takes to make it to the Top 3 in the American Idol competition, the only question mark at this time is can it be done with a fickle crowd and can the song choices and performances go off without a hitch?

We’ll just have to turn on American Idol and watch American Idol every week to see if Ramiele Malubay can wow the fans of American Idol.
