Why is Miley on American Idol as a mentor? I can't for the life of me understand what qualifications she has for that role. Watching her perform live is always a chore, her vocals are spotty, her stage presence is nonexistent, and she sounds like a horse with bronchitis. I don't quite understand her appeal, as well as American Idols' decision to make her a mentor. Honestly this is possibly the weakest batch of contestants that I have seen on the show (full disclosure: I have only watched the last 3 season with any degree of regularity), and they need all the vocal help they can get. Unfortunately Miley is definitely not the right person for the job, you could not only tell by her own live performance on Wednesday night, but by the way she gave advice to the contestants. Saying that everyone was "great" and that the vocals were "great", and that they will all do "great" was painful to watch.
Hopefully later on there will be more capable mentors, my vote is bringing Adam Lambert back and teaching the kids a thing or two about stage presence.
Anyhow, that's my inaugural post...sad that it took a horrible episode of a TV show for me to create a blog...more to come!
