Steven Tyler just loves when Karen does her ethnic what-it-is-ness. Yeah, it probably turns Steven on! Jennifer Lopez thought she was more nervous than usual, but she attacked the song. Randy Jackson said it was better than last week, but he wasn’t exactly excited about it.

YAWN. I’m so bored… Karen has that effect on me. If she really doesn’t want to be labeled the Spanish singer on Idol, Karen needs to stop Spanglish-ing her performances. It was fun once, but over and over again – it’s just annoying!
