American Idol Recap: I Only Care About Phil Phillips, Heejun, And Their Man Hug
Posted on: February 23, 2012
Before we get into the fact that people are now calling my boo, Phil Phillips instead of his awesome birth name, Phillip Phillips, we need to discuss this photo:
I’m gonna need J Lo to never look like this again. But on the flip side.. Steven Tyler looks fantastic.
OK! Now on to really important things like Heejun and my boo P² and they’re bromance. All other bromances are dead to me. And unlike the rest of the Idol bro’s that forget about each other once the career killing Idol tour comes to a halt… I feel like these two will make it. And by that I mean, Heejun will be the Godfather to me and P²’s children (P² Jr and Rocco II).
Heejun gave us his Senior year portrait and I love it.
Nice ribbed sweater. And his last name is Han?? Heejun Han. That’s what me and P² will name our third child!
I love this kid. He’s insecure and shy and funny… how are we not best friends in life?? I love his psuedo accent. I can kind of understand what he’s saying… but what my ears don’t hear, my heart can. (<– call me Hallmark)
I don’t even like when he sings… I just want him to rise up on the stage, with the fog surrounding him, and just chat with me all day.
He hits on J Lo and hits himself in the face. I’m wondering if he has some sort of syndrome??
He’s gonna assault J Lo if the judges don’t say yes. This could get interesting.
And then he calls himself ugly. Maybe he should get some therapy before he has to deal with the American Idol stuff?? Actually no. We need him in rare form.
When Heejun cries babies are made, angels get their wings and I make money.
And then for the greatest moment in Idol history… MAN HUG!
HE SWINGS HIM AROUND?!?!?! Heejun Han is the only person I’ll allow Phillip Phillips to cheat on me with.
Okay.. let me calm down and get into P² before I lose my mind over the awesome that is Heejun.
P² is wearing plaid and singing about how he’ll treat us right all while making funny faces. I like how he doesn’t wear a sparkly dress to the final decision a la J Lo.
His name is not PHIL! It’s Phillip or P² .
I really thought he was gonna yell YEE HAW! That’s a shame and this was very anti-climactic; not at all like Heejun’s dramatic performance.
So, that was it. These two need to be the final two and then they’re will be a draw and me, P² , and Heejun will live happily ever after with me and P² biological children and then our three way adopted fun babies from random countries.
Is that weird??
What will be even weirder will be when I try to discuss this with the both of them via Twitter. (P² and Heejun <—- click those for their Twitter accounts aka my stalking vehicles) Please God let Heejun leave the generic egg as his photo all season.

YES! That man hug made my day. LOL. Gah these two are my top top top favorites. Heejun’s a riot and Phillips is just really really cool, man. Thanks for this recap! Awesome.
[...] supposed to be doing actual work right now, but as I was reading recaps of American Idol blogs (not as good as my fully captured recaps… duh) I came across the greatest words ever uttered to Ryan [...]

Hey, Rocco, great recap! I thought Heejun did a fantastic job on that hydraulic stage. I’m glad he made it through to the live show round. Actually I was sure he would. About his last name, Han is a Chinese family name and the Chinese name for (South) Korea, where Heejun was born, if I remember correctly. Korean are a very, very self-aware people, IMO. Two of my classmates in college are North Koreans and they worked so hard all my fellow Chinese students felt ashamed at one point or another for being easy on ourselves with classes and projects. P+P, on the other hand, surprised me a bit by singing the same song he did in the previous solo performance exactly the same way, including that dog-pee-style left leg up salutation. It looked like he was having a seizure. Weird kid he is.

P2 is a weirdo but that why Heejun and I love him! lol
Heejun is by far the most entertaining man that’s ever been on this show

Totally understand why. And I think it was probably his single-parent upbringing that molded his personality, or “weirdness”, if you will. He’s quirky in a very likeable way. Actually he reminds me of myself at his age somehow. Although I was not raised by my father alone it was pretty close, because my mom wasn’t around much to help me handle my growing pains.

No joke, as soon as the judges told Hee Jun he was through, my first thought was “OMFG what is Phil’s reaction goig to be!?” and nothing cold have been more climatic than the pure adorableness that was their man hug <3 btw, I totally understand your weird fantasy about these two. lol ;P
