Do you think James Durbin got eliminated on American Idol just because Adam Lambert tweeted about his bad performances on the show?? James Durbin fans might be thinking it this way, but here’s a recap for all of those things being said by Adam Lambert.
“Durbin sounded bad (expletive) tonight! Lot more control! And while we both have a rock scream I think we’re pretty different stylistically.”
“I think he’s got talent and passion 100 percent, but I feel like he’s trying way too hard,” Adam says. “Also, his niche is so limited with the metal. When he did that Heavy Metal song [by Sammy Hagar], James was note-perfect. He was on pitch, which is usually kind of an issue, and I think he sounded really good, but it felt like a copycat. I didn’t feel like I was seeing an original artist yet. And I’m not saying he doesn’t have that in him, but it hasn’t been showing. Whereas Haley and Casey, they’re bringing a little more legitimacy to it. They’re more grounded in their own voices. When they did that jazz duet, that was nuts! They give off a good vibe.”
James Durbin said this in an MTV interview: “I was nothing more than nice to that guy and, you know, he decided to take it to a different level. So, whatever,”
