I would have rather seen Chris or Phil go home first too. Oh well!

Next week is going to be country week with Martina McBride. That should be fun!

I know, I am anxious to see what Blake does next week. He seems to be able to pull off any kind of music. I think the following week is when they do their inspirational songs because it is the special show.

Wasn't the scene with the little girl drawing the picture of Simon with boobs cute. I think that was the first time I ever saw him turn red.

Guhlia Rising Star

Oh my gosh, that was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO funny!!!!!!!!! That was worth a whole season of Sanjaya!

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Sanjaya is more of a joke on that show than anything else. I honestly think that is why people are voting for him. For all the people who think he is cute I wish I saw what they see....maybe its just me.

Guhlia Rising Star

Nope, it's not just you. I think he's pathetic and not very attractive either. I don't get what the teenage girls could possibly see in him, but whatever. He REALLY needs to shave off that thing on his lip though. That was grossing me out.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

I know...I am wondering if the stach is a attention thing like when he had the hat one night and then the mohawk.

confused Community Regular

I was so happy to see haley go. It was nice it was an hour long last night also. I dont like when elimination night is 30 minutes.

I cant wait for country night. I will have to record next week also. Why do my kids always have to have soccer or spring concerts on a tuesday lol

So what other types of weeks do they have? Country week is next week. I think 80's week would be cool!!!

I was glad Lakisha stayed. I wish Phil could grow hair on his head as quickly as Sanjaya grew that facial fluff.

:lol: It's funny too, cuz I actually like that shaved or close cut look on many guys, but I tend to agree with you on this one, lol.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

Some guys look real good with shaved heads, but Phil reminds me of a patient undergoing chemo. He has a very sickly look to him.

Guhlia Rising Star

Ok guys, it's Tuesday! What did everyone think?

***SPOILER***

I actually thought Sanjaya was decent again this week. I'd much rather see Chris go before him now. I can't stand Chris' nasal voice. Especially now that I know he's doing it on purpose. Yuck!

You guys know what a huge Blake Lewis fan I am, but this week I thought he totally bombed. I thought it was really bad. My husband disagreed with me and said he thought it was ok, but not great. I could barely listen to it and I normally love Blake. He's by far my favorite.

Melinda! Jordin! WOW!!!

lonewolf Collaborator

I didn't get to see all of it, but I thought that Melinda was great and Blake wasn't. Phil seemed more at home with this type of music, but I still don't like him. Jordin was the only other one that I thought was any good.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

We were at the vet and didn't get to see the begining. I was not too amused last night. It was hard to keep my attention. I am not a big country fan to begin with but I don't think it was that. I have to say Blake was not that great. I do like Jordin. I was in the laundry room for Sanjaya although I did catch the hair.

I think I missed Haley's spunkiness this week. She did liven up the show in a way.

I think next week might be a little more fun.

Cheri A Contributor

I thought that Jordin and Melinda were really good. Blake was just OK to me. I normally don't like Phil, but I thought his singing was a bit better than it usually is. I liked LaKisha's song better than the last few weeks, but maybe it's cuz I like the song. I thought that Chris and Sanjaya were terrible!! I think I missed Haley too!

dlp252 Apprentice

Yep, I'd have to agree with most of the comments so far. Like Jordin, Melinda and even Phil the best. Much prefer Phil without the hats though, lol. It's too scary with the hats.

Just couldn't watch Sanjaya again. His song wasn't as horrible as some weeks, but that hair/scarf thing...wow, lol.

confused Community Regular

Well I missed most of it. My son had his spring program. I did make it to see melinda and blake. I personally think melinda was terrible. i did not like her at all. I did like blakes, i think he did a good job, not an awesome job, but i liked it. I wish I would seen more, but from many of your post I dont think i missed too much. I think i got to see the best singers in the world lol

I am just not a Chris fan. I liked him in the beginning for the first week and then it went downhill.

Jo.R Contributor

LOL! It's so funny the different takes everyone has on it. I guess I'm the odd one out. I really dislike country music, but I enjoyed last night more than any other. It wasn't as boring. I do agree Phil was in his element and did well, but I thought Blake was great and I enjoyed Melinda. I'm sick of Lakisha, she can sing but there is something in her personality that puts me off. Of course I think Sanjaya should go this week, but it will probably be Chris, which works too.

I'd have to say ditto here. Not a huge country fan myself, but I also enjoyed this show more than the others recently.

blueeyedmanda Community Regular

My mom watched and she is an old-time country fan, into Dolly Parton. She really didn't think these songs sounded very country.

I would have liked to hear them sing a Dixie Chicks song.

Guhlia Rising Star

The new wave of country music really isn't very country anymore. Your mom is right, Amanda. I do have to admit though, I really like country music, both old and new. They all picked relatively un-country country songs, which is fine as most of America probably isn't very into the old style country music.

I really hope if Sanjaya doesn't go home tonight that Chris will. I don't think I can stand watching him one more week. He annoys me. :)

Boy do we think alike...one of them better be going home or I am going to find something else to do on Tuesday nights. ;)

HawkFire Explorer

I think Lakeisha is going home. I thought this last week, too. I like her. I really liked how Simon scolded Melinda about the cutesy "YOu think I'm GOOD" act. That was a nice thing to have what I've been thinking voiced. Thank you Simon. I just laughed and laughed at Sanjaya. I'm ready for him to go home. He's had a good run. I wouldn't buy an album from any of these singers. I'm not interested in any of their voices.

Guhlia Rising Star

WOO-HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol::lol::lol:

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
