Just Can't Get Enough

My aunt just introduced two Vietnamese girls to work as part-time waitress during Chinese New Year. We were all worried because we scared that pervert Bangladesh guy who always thinks he is attractive will disturb these innocent girls. So, we tried to block him to see them but who knew he came out to get some rice( must be some idiots in the kitchen told him ) However, my mum and aunty advised them not to mix with him. Phew! I'm keeping my fingers crossed and praying that these girls won't fall into his trap like my stupid Cambodian maid did. "Hope GODS have eyes" This guy just can't get enough with girls.

'People Reviews'

Alright I said I want to be an active blogger. Let me start off with this

Lakoda Rayne is the topic today.

Lakoda Rayne is a girl band from X FACTOR USA. They came in the competition as solo artist (Paige, Cari, Hayley and Dani) but they only made it to the bootcamp. The judges gave them a lifeline which is put them together as a group . The group performed 'Born This Way' in their first ever performance as a group which was very beautiful and very country version.

Then, it was announced that the newly formed girl band is a finalist. It was obviously for sure that they were going to be a country band when they performed 'Come On Eileen'. They received positive reviews from the first live show like Simon & L.A. Reid said there is a gap in the market for this group and they would be giving a world wide contract.
In the next show, their mentor, Paula Abdul made a mistake by giving a ballad song called 'Landslide' where they were beautifully dressed like prom queen but Simon called them weird and L.A. was confused about their genre in the industry.

However, that didn't make them landing into the bottom two until the next week where they performed a country song by Keith Urban. They were saved by the judges and stayed in the competition for another two weeks.
Their last performance on X FACTOR was on THANKSGIVING with their own version of 'You Belong With Me'. They were eliminated as they received the lowest amount of votes.

My thought:
Lakoda Rayne is definitely my favorite to win but I knew they won't go long in this competition as they were "REJECTED" in the girls' category. All four beautiful girls with beautiful voices, where can we find girls like them anymore?

I think Americans made a mistake for not voting for them to stay longer; do we still see country girl band now? I don't think so. These girls have great futures. Besides, I would also like to blame Paula for not being a supportive mentor, we could see her asking the audience to vote for Josh Krajik but did we see her persuading people to vote for her last group in her category?!! We could only see her saying: You are greatful! You made me so proud! You've proven to me! What is wrong with this mentor? I personally like them not only bcoz of the looks but the voices, it's something very unique; or maybe their song choices. I love their performance on the ROCK's week which is a mash up of ''Your Love" / "Go Your Own Way''. They sounded amazing.

I also love their version of 'You Belong With Me' on thanksgiving, it was definitely the simplest covered version of the song. However they were eliminated on that week.

Last performance on X FACTOR

One thing I found out interesting about the group and the show is the week where the judges critiqued them, they were never in the bottom two but the week where the judges praised them, they were in the bottom two. You can check it out on YOUTUBE. Americans definitely made a mistake by sending them home as they are four good soloists too. If the world could vote, they would have become the winner for sure.
