In case you missed it: Blake Lewis and Doug E. Fresh steal show from Jordin Sparks on 'Idol' finale

May

Click here to see THE water-cooler moment from last night’s “American Idol” finale.

blake.jpgMy favorite part’s at the 1:36 mark, when Blake plays with the phrase “Oh, my God!” as if it were being scratched on a turntable.

Yes, I know I sound like a 12-year-old girl.

A short list of reasons why you’d hate this clip:

1. You hate rap and/or hip-hop.

2. You hate the theme from “Inspector Gadget.”

3. You hate fun.

    You're absolutely right! After Blake's show stopping performance with Fresh, Jordin's teary-eyed coronation seemed like it was from a Miss Teen America pageant from 1975(Does she even know what today's girls wear to a dressy event?)

    " Oh-oh-oh my god!" =) I love you soooo much!!! I was hoping you would win. I like voted 4 U like a billion times. U beat-box soooo good. Nobody could ever be like U. I love U!!!!!

    Loved the improv beatbox battle between Blake and Doug E. Fresh. Freshest thing in a night of tired, choreographed acts.

    I really enjoyed Blake lastnight. Good for him. I was hoping he'd win. I wanted someone that really has struggled and seen the other side of life (normal-side) and had to work hard for what they had (including his parents). I'm not saying jordin's parents did, nor did she. It's just that she was born into money and the finer things. I think it would have been really neat to see Blake win though.

    Blake's performance with Doug E. Fresh totally blew everyone else away! He is definitely too good for American Idol. I think he's the best thing to happen to this show in all 6 seasons!

    I think it was a Shame that he 'HAD' to sing 'their' stupid "this is my now" song…. it was SO made for Jordin, Jordin is a GREAT singer…but a LOT of people can sing…How many people can beatbox like that?? BLAKE IS AMAZING!!! WHEN he puts out a CD, I will buy my first AI contestants CD!!!

    I want to hear more Regae beatboxing..that was great too!

    I'm a huge Blake fan, and he definitely brought down the house with this performance! Who cares about Jordin, she can't give performances like these. I'm obsessed with the "Oh my god!" part, I mean how cool is that?! Blake has an amazing career ahead, I just hope his album isn't tampered with.

  8. Deanne

    Blake DID steal the show!! Can't wait to buy his cd. And to go to a SOLO Blake Lewis concert. He is so such and an amazing entertainer! He's so full of energy, he just OWNS that stage, and the beatboxing is amazing. I'm glad that he got a chance to show America how he performs doing his true genre of music. I know I will be having so much fun at his concert. I hope that Jorzilla's fans have as much fun watching her….stand there. Oh well.

    By some of Blake’s interviews I see he knows music and the industry. He is a way better performer than Jordan. Jordan got her oppertunities from her rich dad, voice lessions for years, home school to focus on sining. I bet she did not mix her music.
    Blake started because he did not get drums when he was a kid. What did he do? Created his own! Blake took little know songs, and made them great…

    Oh-My-Gosh! I totaly LOVE Blake! I voted like a thousand times! I was sooooo suprised that Blake didn't win. I want to buy his CD right away. It was just so fun to watch him perform.

  11. Mrs. Blake Lewis

    I love him so much! I can not wait until he comes out with an album and goes on tour by himself! That is definetly a concert I am not going to miss! When they said Jordin won AI I fell off the couch and screamed so loud my neighbor came over wondering what was wrong. I voted for him over 300 times that night. :[ I can NOT believe he didn't win.
