Date August 21, 2008

Thanks to MJ for providing us with video so soon.

I just have to say that Larry King is the worst interviewer EVER. Oh well, Michael was great, as usual.

    Yes, very bad.  Larry really needs to go home and stay there. Michael looked good . I wish he could have talked more. He’s the only reason I watched this.

    Ok my favorite part is when Michael tells Archie he knows where he sleeps – ha why is he so funny!!! I love Michael =)

    Larry King = not so much

    The LK interview is for those who know little about the idols. Oh well, we won’t get any new info. there.

    i liked everything about the interview except Larry, haha. Michael, Chikezie, Kristy ,Carly and even Archie answer very well. i have to say.. and the chemistry among them is very nice to see.

    For me, anything with MJ in it is totally worth watching! Loved the part about PDSTM becoming a dance fest (so true)! Also loved how MJ said he used to see tour buses and wish that he were on one…….no more wishing MJ, a tour bus will be your 2nd home now for many, many years to come! SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

    I loved to see them all interact..very cool. Of course the MJ parts are my absolute favourite…and like bear..the part where he said he used to wish he was on the tour bus and now is experiencing it…I was so happy his dreams are coming true!

    WTG MJ!!!

    Of course all of the parts with Michael were the best!!

    And I agree LK did a horrible job. He just seems so disconnected and not even interested in the answers he was getting to his questions. As many times as Mavid was mentioned, he was totally oblivious.

    Laur, that was my fav. part too….w/ MJ telling DA he knows where he sleeps. David Cook had a hard time controlling his laughter on that one!

    So I’m assuming that all Larry did was read questions off a piece of paper that people submitted? That is pretty sad…I know they wanted to make it an interactive experience for the fans but I felt like I took ten valiums before I watched that.

    Apparently King missed Jason sitting there too…

    WOW…can I interview them next time please?

  12. Miss Jenna Johns said at August 22nd, 2008, 10:24 am: ()

    Oh and you could see them all wanting to goof around a bit and have fun but dry ol’ Larry was clueless.

    Poor idols…they were adorable…Larry not so much. hahahaha

  13. fu-fu said at August 22nd, 2008, 10:54 am: ()

    It’s always good to see Michael! But Larry? How ’bout doing some prep next time for an interview? How many times did the Idols mention “Mavid” and he never even followed up with it!

    I just watched again. LK’s excruciatingly bad interviewing skills can’t diminish the awesomeness of MJ, Cook and Jason. Archuleta was cute, too. LK is just terrible. Seriously. I don’t get his show at all. He sure threw out a couple of asinine questions. I mean, “any of you changed your mind and not want to be a singer?”…really? oh lord.

    hahaheee at “it’s just an eyeball” and “I know where you sleep, Archuleta” and awww at David Cook’s adorable laugh.

    Not enough Michael! But what little there was of him was great, of course!! <3

    This was such a lame interview. The last LK one was better. Next time he should have viewers send in the questions! Larry forgot about Jason. Poor Jason. :(

    Michael and David Cook were adorable as usual, and Archie was being his usual cute kid self. I think they all just made the best of it. I would have liked to have seen more of the backstage moments though. LOL

    Larry King is Larry King… at least he invited them to the show :-) They are such an awesome group who seem to really enjoy each other and the experiences of this most exausting tour. I get tired just following it… LOL!!!! All ten are great especially David C and the STUD MUFFIN HIMSELF MICHAEL JOHNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Carly is special too!!!!!!!!!!! MJ fan FOREVER.

    alright so the questions were kinda lame but one thing i have always wondered is michael hair curly or straight????? it looks straight here but other times it can look curly.

    i am so confused

    So Michael came out of the womb dancing–
    “When you got it you just got it I guess”

    You definitely got it Michael(Dance Machine) Johns!!!!

    I thought it was me! Larry King is suppose to be good at this??? He was so bad with interviewing them. He ignored several times the Mavid which I really wanted to hear them talk about. I wanted to hear more from each of them, not just the two David’s.

  20. heart2 said at August 22nd, 2008, 4:18 pm: ()

    This must have been edited, because I remember LK asking Jason something about the fans and he said” somthing about them being consistant” also Michael saying something about”He will be Knocking on evey door” And Chekezie going on about all the autographs he signs, he got a big laugh with that one. Maybe it will re-run on sunday.
    Michael is the best, HaHa “I know were you sleep Archuleta”

  21. Sherry L said at August 22nd, 2008, 6:46 pm: ()

    Yeah Larry King is the worst. He never knows anything about his guests – even people like Paul McCartney who’ve been around for years – he still messed up well known info. I can barely watch.

    “I got this for David Archuleta” – LOL

  22. molly474 said at August 22nd, 2008, 7:52 pm: ()

    Okay………… Larry, seriously, those questions were sooooooo lame. I think he even asked a few of the questions twice!! not sure though. Michael shoulda got ALOT more talk time. Larry obviously didnt wanna hear about Mavid but im pretty sure THE PUBLIC DID!!!! And yes, larry king IS the WORST interviewer EVER!! But as usual, michael was great!! GO MJ!!!

  23. Cathy said at August 22nd, 2008, 8:35 pm: ()

    Was Larry King really asking questions? Thank goodness I missed that nonsense…..my eyes were fixed on Michael and listening to what he had to say! He absolutely melts my heart! I had a quick opportunity in Charlotte to say hello and shake his hand! Love him! Love him! Love him!

    I hate this interview. It is a reminder that LK took up our time that the idols usually use to meet fans, and I did not get to meet Michael. Boo

  25. goldhilites said at August 23rd, 2008, 8:39 am: ()

    It looked like there was some sort of in joke between Mike and Cookie with the “I know where you sleep” comment to David Archuleta.

  26. Terry said at August 23rd, 2008, 10:17 am: ()

    Boy, seems like once you get to be a 100 yr. old,CNN should let you out of your contract. That was brutal. Michael was AWESOME as usual.hehe

  27. Maria said at August 29th, 2008, 11:47 am: ()

    Yep… Michael was amazing, but what’s up with Jason???
    He didn’t even open his mouth… MJ was just GREAT!
