Can someone recap the controlling groom everyone is talking about with the mother that came along to enforce his wishes. I don't remember that ep. Also just my two cents on a couple of things, while I don't think if a dress is ill fitting or downright ugly the "jacking up" helps, I can see how when the bride has on the veil and all jeweled up the parents finally see their daughter as an adult and she's getting married and it becomes an emotional moment for them so all the pettiness takes a backseat for a moment. Especially when she is crying about how pretty she looks and feels. Sometimes the veil wins me over too. As for saying someone looks like a princess or wanting to look like one, I don't think (at least I hope not) most people mean they want to be a princess, disney or otherwise, I think, people are looking for a word that encapsulates looking beautiful on what is supposed to be one of the most important days of your life, whether you have a simple low key wedding or a big blowout. I've had both and even though the marriage didn't last I still love looking at pictures of me in that big wedding gown and seeing how happy and pretty I looked and felt that day. For my 2nd and hopefully last wedding, it was a simple cotton maxi sundress and I love it just as much.

Ok, I have to ask...why all the Adam hate? Maybe I'm just not perceptive enough but I don't see him doing anything any different than the other coaches. Am I missing something? I've watched every season and read these boards and it seems more and more, it's adam is a douche, adam has an agenda, adam always gives his black contestants the worst songs, adam is being favored by the producers. Why would the producers show favoritism towards adam? Is he blackmailing someone? Seriously I'm not saying he isn't all these bad things I just want to know why I don't see it. What am I missing? As for the songs he gives Damian, just seems to me that's the type of singer Damian wants to be. I didn't see him picking the Adele song as a smack down to adam. I think he just likes the song and wanted a chance to sing it, but R&B is clearly his wheelhouse and everyone knows old R&B is better than what is out there now. If you ask me, Chris is the one he gives the worst songs to. The only song he gave him that seemed to fit Chris was the nick Jonas song. He was the one to sing that right?

Initially I was going to skip this show, but decided at the last minute to give it a shot. Surprisingly I liked it. I think there are definitely some kinks they need to work out but overall not a bad start. It was not the cringe worthy train wreck I was expecting. My husband had a bit of a problem with it and is on the fence. I am black and he is white and it really bothered him that the white characters came off as over the top idiots trying to be "hip" (his words). I laughed and told him now he knows how I feel when I see the overweight sassy black woman on tv.
