I remember that time I posted Tamyra, Vonzell, LaToya in the same 71-75 set in the first (?) ranking I did and thought you were going to suspend me for a minute. :giggle:

LMAO I remember this too. I WAS ABOUT TO RIOT. :dead:

Of Top 3 night that Tamyra wasn't apart of. :broken: 

I read an article once that talked about how Tamyra's shock elimination was one of the catalysts of Idol's success in the early years and lowkey always agreed that Tamyra's boot was exactly the kind of water cooler moment Idol needed to cross into the mainstream zeitgeist so in a way her not being in the Top 3 episode was good for Idol's longevity?

Oh wait, Christina's Instagram is public now instead of private like ti used to be.

Here's her on January 20, 2021! She and Paul Rudd went to the same school of aging.

 

Excuse my gay mouth, but holy f*ck. Congrats at winning at life, Christina.

A little sad “Ain’t No Sunshine” wasn’t able to push all the way into top 5. It was such a hypnotic and captivating performance. And I remember thinking she was so beautiful all through her season. I see that hasn’t changed!

I agree.

 

And I think the "Respect" in the top 20 is the semifinal version, and I thought the finale was better.

Tamyra Gray set the standard for live performances and her performance is an important part of American Idol. :yes:

So Tamyra set the curve? Agreed. 🙂
