With the help of guest mentor Quentin Tarantino , the remaining seven idols went to the movies on last night's show, where songs spanned 30 years of popular cinema. This was Tarantino's second appearance on the show, he served as a guest judge in 2003, and while his sharp criticism and excited praise seemed helpful, most idols chose not to take his advice. It might have been because the well-known director's tips had more to do with their presentation then their song choice, pitch or tone...Read Full Story

Yet another week begins on Dancing With the Stars and it's obvious from last night's show that the routines are not getting any easier and the dancing is only getting better and faster.

The remaining 8 idols picked songs from the years they were born Tuesday night, which means it was pretty much 80s night. Idols belted out tunes from Tina Turner to Survivor to Bonnie Raitt. Few performances really stood out, but those that did were amazing and dead on. As the show continues to dwindle down, it's obvious who has the ability to take a classic song and make it their own and who can't. Adam Lambert, as usual provided a memorable performance and surprisingly, so did Anoop Desai...Read Full Story
