I would pay to hear Michael Grimm, but I wouldn't pay to hear Jackie. Just like Sharon, I didn't understand a word she sang; it was heavenly, but I wouldn't go to Vegas to hear opera. The whole show they are asking, "Is this a show that would make it in Vegas?" Come on, opera is NOT a Vegas act. Jackie will do fine, but not at 9 and not in Vegas. The others - Fighting Gravity and Prince Poppycock got exposure that they deserve as well...that could land them in Vegas or beyond. If I were one of those students parents I would tell them to take the experience, but go back to college!! This is Michael's break and he is no robber!

I personally liked both Michael & Jackie. Jackie is amazing but I personally don't like opera music. Michael has a fantastic voice and I can't wait to buy his CD. As far as the previous winner Kevin Skinner the reason you don't hear about him now is that he wasn't very good. As the season progressed last year he became worse instead of better. Go Michael! Love his voice! Go Jackie. You're great.

I think Jackie will be a bigger star than we can imagine. I have to hope that voters did not want to see her in tawdry Las Vegas at her age. She should have won. The hard luck story won again. As for Kevin Skinner, last year's winner, I wonder if he was hard to work with. He has sort of faded away. The million dollars is paid over 40 years so that won't buy a house for the grandparents. Grimm will still have to work hard on his talent and I hope he realizes his dream. All four acts in the final will likely have some kind of career. #3 and 4 are acts that would charm a LV audience. Grimm would do well at the county fair and Jackie on Broadway or in the famous opera houses around the world.

It sucks. Jackie got robbed. Michael is a so/so singer. Same thing happened last year. Barbara Bedalia against the chicken plugger. The chicken plucker won never to be heard from again. Same this this year Class vs so/so so.so won The title should be changecd to AMERICA DOOES NOT KNOW TALENT. IT WAS RIGGED.
