I can not watch the show, which is tough on me. American Idol was one of my favorite shows since it first came on.
I have friends and family that watch it, and tell me what happened. I guess last night there was a lot of drama.
It was group week. Hope was in a group where one girl wanted to run the whole group and dictate what everyone did. Hope wasn’t having it. She wanted to voice her opinions as well. She is like me in that sense. We let people know what we think, for sure.
Two people made it through to the next round out of her group. Hope and another girl. I’m so excited! She was put through to get closer to the top!
I believe next week she’ll be on again. Everyone tune in and watch my Hopie Jo on the show to see what happens and how far she makes it.

Good for her for standing up for herself. In that industry, as well as in business, you have to look out for yourself, because if you don’t, no one else will. If you let them, others will roll right over you.
I remember a successful actress putting it this way. “I decided that I couldn’t be fair to myself and be fair to everyone else at the same time. So I decided to be fair to myself.” She had a reputation as being difficult and I’m sure she made some enemies by deciding to do that, but she had to take that attitude to survive and not get taken advantage of. Its a crazy world out there.
