Scotty McCreery rendered a beautiful, moving and pitch perfect performance of Alan Jackson’s Where Were You? on May 11th’s American Idol.

Listen, I am not a connoisseur of conutry music by any means, but I know a damn good heartfelt performance when I see and hear one, and Scotty, you killed it for me!

The Idol judges agree:

Randy Jackson: “Dude, I think it’s the perfect song choice for where we are as a country. I applaud you for that. You set your mark on this stage this season. You are ready for super stardom and I hope you make it.”

Steven Tyler: “That was beautiful. I ditto what Randy said. Passion…that’s really important. I see it in your eyes.”

Jennifer Lopez: “I’m just in love with you. I can’t help it. What you stand for, what you bring to your music. I can tell you know who you are. I can tell you know what touches other people. It’s the mark of someone who is meant to do this. And I’m glad we’re here to witness it.”

For his second song, he sang a more up-tempo fun song by The Coasters Young Blood. Tyler said it best, “You made Gaga’s yaya go lala. How could you do that?” HUH?

Here is the performance:

Video: Kirstie Alley & Maksim Chmerkovskiy Mesmerize

Kirstie Alley and Maksim Chmerkovskiy placed third on Monday’s (5/16) Dancing with the Stars.

During rehearsals, Kirstie and Maks got into a huge tiff when Kristie admitted she was scared for having to learn three dances this week.

The two quickly made up and for their first performance, they were mesmerizing as they danced the Viennese Waltz to One and Only by Adele.


Bruno Tonioli (9): “Kirstie, set sail beautifully. Like a majestic clipper, riding the waves, going for the American Cup. Well done my darling.” 
Carrie Ann Inaba (9): “I’m impressed. The hold was amazing. You guys were tight. The technique was fantastic. You do something that’s really magical. You bring us into the whole performance. You transform the ballroom stage into something different every time you step out there.”
Len Goodman (9): “The Viennese Waltz is a grueling dance and I honestly thought you’d be a cling on, hanging on to Maks for dear life. But, no! You had beautiful posture. Lovely sweeping movement. Good rotation. You did well. That was a great dance. Well done.”
TOTAL SCORE FOR FIRST DANCE: 27




For their second dance, Kirstie and Maks danced the Paso Doble to White Room by Cream.


Bruno Tonioli (9): “Kirstie, that was not the Paso Doble, it was Dance Trek 12, The Wrath of Kirstie. The fire, the power, erupting volcano. You were going like a force of nature.”
Carrie Ann Inaba (9): “You’re the queen of the Paso Doble. That was fantastic.”
Len Goodman (9): “For me, you’ve had the two toughest dances tonight and you come out and dance fabulous!”

TOTAL SCORE FOR SECOND DANCE: 27. TOTAL SCORE FOR THE NIGHT, 54, GOOD FOR THIRD PLACE.
