"American Idol" Top 36, Group 1: Jackie Tohn rocks out
Posted by Bob Payne
Jackie Tohn opened the "American Idol" Top 36 festivities by singing "A Little Less Conversation," originally recorded by Elvis Presley.
What? No guitar? Instead, she's a dancing queen. But it looked a bit awkward, and at times it looked like it might have hurt!
Here's what the judges said:
Randy - Vocals not so great, but entertaining.
Kara - "You can work a stage."
Paula - "You got me up dancing. You make everyone fall in love with you."
Simon: "I think that you actually played the clown tonight." He called her moves "ungainly," which I kind of have to agree with.
What did you think?
