The theme of American Idol tonight was Michael Jackson, and Anoop Desai decided to sing "Beat It." After an energetic performance, he was trashed by all four judges. Paula Abdul said that it was a song that shouldn't have been messed with, and that he sound too karaoke, while Simon Cowell went so far as to call his performance horrible. Cowell even regretted increasing the Top 12 last week to the Top 13 to keep Anoop in the show. Even Randy Jackson told him that it was the wrong song choice. My little sister had a good point when she said he would have been better off doing some obscure Michael Jackson song, so that the judges wouldn't have anything to compare it to.
I thought Anoop did a pretty decent job, and "Beat It" is one of my favorite songs. It was better than the Fall Out Boy version, anyway. The hope that Anoop gave everyone last week may be turned to shreds soon enough. Let's hope Anoop Dogg makes it to the next round to show the judges what he's got. We'll find out tomorrow at 8:00 on Fox. What do you guys think about Anoop's rendition of "Beat It?"
