New Age Limit for Idol - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

kimkong21 · 07-16-2004, 05:37 PM

So Idol is going to raise the age limit to 28 rather than 26,which means ..................I still won't be trying out because I sound like a dying dog . Actually, I think it's a good idea because there so many kids who are doing well on Idol that I think that some older contestants deserve a chance to compete also . I'm mean is 28 really supposed to be old???

o0o yea I heard about that on ET. I think theyre doing it because Simon doesnt like 16 year olds doing it- thinks theyre too young, so I think this way theyd have a better chance of getting an older top 12.

o0o0 so 16 year olds are still allowed?

I hated how he thought they were too young and stuff. The teenagers this year were great (John, Diana, Jasmine, Camile). And they're fun to watch, as it's easier for me, since I'm a teenager to connect.

But hmm 28. That's some news I haven't heard yet. That's cool though.

Yup

Do you like to hear talented adults sing (over 16), or talented kids sing better?
I can't decide.

Yeah, but he still made it far.

The top 3 this year were all teenagers

I dont mind. My top 2 of AI3 were an adult singer ( JPL) and a 16 year old ( Diana)

It's all about the voice, but I have noticed that the younger talents seem to be more exciting to watch and track. Last year, even though Josh, Kimberley, Ruben, and Trenyce were all great talents, they weren't exactly wonderfully exciting to watch at times. Maybe it was because they were more serious or something, i'm not sure, but i like it when they have fun (Diana) rather than when they focus too hard, and make it looked too polished, which comes off as boring sometimes (LaToya).
