Simon was spot on when he said doing Beatles for a second week basically killed all the great memories from last week. I don't understand how there are so many wonderful Beatles tunes to choose from and yet somehow this group managed to pick things we had never heard or just destroy some classics. Such a shame.

Once again I liked Brooke; even though this week showed all her quirky awkward traits, I agreed with Paula that she just makes me smile. Others who were worth watching were David Archuleta, Syesha, Jason Castro, and David Cook. While Cook was impressive, he is clearly getting cocky, which is why I think Simon was trying to put him back in his place last night. Also, even though Simon bashed Michael Johns, it took major guts to do that song so he's got to get some credit for that.

Amanda — still bugs. What can I say, I just am in no way into her. Average Kristy Lee and Carly will probably make it through, while adorable Ramiele may be in the bottom three but I am hoping Chikezie takes her place instead. I enjoyed him but I think, like the judges, many people didn't like him.

Bottom three: Amanda, Kristy Lee, and Chikezie
Going home: Amanda (please please please)

Lately Scarlett Johansson has been trying her hand at directing, but New York, I Love You isn't her only project outside the acting realm. Her album of Tom Waits covers will be released on May 20th, and we've got the first look at a photoshoot for her album cover. Scarlett did her best to put on her serious musician face, but we're waiting to hear a few tracks before we're ready to promote her to singer status.

While Reese was off enjoying the sunshine, Jakey G was channeling his inner lumberjack on his way out of a medical center in LA yesterday. It must have been good news from the doctor, because he was off his crutches with a smile on his face. Hopefully he'll take it easy for a while, because we wouldn't want to see those adorable shoulder rides go away.

Britney Spears didn't flash a smile, but we're happy to see her out to dinner with both of her parents at Paradise Cove Beach Café in LA last night. The company she's keeping these days seems a lot healthier, though her ex BFF Sam isn't a big fan of the commissioner who extended the restraining order against him, and filed an objection to the judge last Friday. As of now though, Sam still has to stay away from Britney until at least April 16th, so hopefully he won't be out to celebrate Britney's return to TV next week we're so excited about.
