Lil Gets Us Started...

Here we are kids, the final rounds…

And we’re off to an auspicious start as the camera zooms in too closely on Ryan and it has to zoom back out…

And what is up with the judges intro from the “Hole In the Wall”/“The Moment of Truth” guy? Cheesy!

Plus, why does everyone keep talking about the huge new stage? Is it actually that much bigger than the one they used last year?

Poor Alexis Grace is in that unlucky 13th spot tonight…

And the double eliminations begin tomorrow. Wow that was quick!

So let’s get this thing started…

Lil Rounds, “The Way You Make Me Feel”: 18
The ending was weird, but she picked the perfect song and it sounded good. And I’m not that much of a fan.

And woo-hoo! No more swaying hands in front of the stage. But did you check out that monitor on the floor, so the contestants can actually walk out onto their faces? That’s crazy…
