I really like Chris R - he is just adorable to me (not in the sex-you-up sort of way) - I was glad he stayed.

Someone PLEASE get a big burlap sack and carry SanjayBYE home & take Phil with him - Phil has never sounded good to me.

I am getting to be bleh about Chris S. Last night, Lakisha sounded creepy-old-pervert-lady-next-door'ish to me - the song was bad, and she looked awful singing it. Even a million bucks of bling couldn't help her. I wouldn't have been sad to see her go.

Melinda is growing on me, and I still like Jordin. Haley's shoes were SUPER cute last night - her song was good, but she isn't right for AI. Sort of like a watered down version of Katheryn McPhee (that is her name, right?!) - shows you how much I cared about last season. Blake is still fun to watch, but he can't afford to be predictable.

who left tonite?

I just finished watching last night's American Idol on DVR and I think I tune in every week just to hear Melinda Doolittle sing. (Even with all the gleeking this week, she was still ridiculously awesome)

Here are some other observations made by yours truly from last night's show:

1. According to the BF, the best part of Sanjaya's performance was his sister's boobage. I had to disagree:

2. Timberlake sounded good tonight, I really dug the stools and "acoustic" intro. Poor Beyonce didn't do so well this week, the song she chose had so much potential. Too bad it didn't live up to expectations.

3. Blake is cool. He needs to be fronting a band like Maroon 5 or something.

4. When LaKisha was singing, BF asked, "Why does this sound like a 007 James Bond Movie theme song?" My response? "Because it is, you dolt." GG me.

5. Every year about 440,000 people die from illnesses related to cigarettes. Last night, Jordin Sparks' performance made at least 8 people slit their wrists. Not exactly enough to warrant a Surgeon General's warning, but if she has 55,000 more performances like that.......

6. I hope that twenty years down the road, when she's older, smarter, and tougher, that girl crying in the audience gets to see how awesome she was on American Idol.

7. You can mute Haley Scarnato and still enjoy her performance and Simon said it best -- "you'll be remembered tonight but it won't be for your performance."

HOLY [insert expletive here]

I agree with crying girl looking like Marcia Brady.

My friends at school today were talking about last night's performances and one said (no joke): "I wonder if crying girl is psychologically insane. I mean, at first I thought he was making her cry because he sounded so bad. Because really, he sucks. But when I realized she was crying out of sheer happiness I had to question this girl's reality perception. Because Sanjaya can't sing his way out of a sinking ship." We all concurred.

I'm sad that the person who left tonight left, but the performance given last night wasn't great. Didn't wow. And didn't require every crazy nut in America to pick up the phone and vote for a she-man.

Did anyone else notice that Gina thought she was in the Bottom 3 because she got called out at the same time as Sanjaya and Haley? Way to tell America what you think of your competition. I mean, she's right...but still.

Crying girl was crying the whole show - it wasn't just for Sanjaya. And I heard on the radio this morning that they moved her up to the front when they saw her crying early on so they could show it more. She was crying b/c she was excited to be at AI, not b/c she loved Sanjaya so much.

That was cool...do another one....

why the Holy !@$! though:o I fell asleep?

Well, we already have one Mantasia...

You're going to get accused of being un-cultured ;)

Un-cultured is a word? No, I'm not un-cultured. I like LaKisha. Shit. Did I spell that right? I must be un-cultured and ignorant because I don't know how to spell her name. :p

In all reality I do like LaKisha and Gina. For the girls I'm pulling for them. For the guys, I love Chris Sligh. Too bad I missed last night's episode. Damn work.

no not of being uncultured, just of being a beyatch who seems to always have a smartass "sly" remark..(are you "cultured" enough to translate that one???):)

damn us with our ethnic a$$ names...I'm a La baby too, go figure...;)

Wow - a compliment - thank you - I will cherish it forever & may have to add it to the siggy :D

Just don't make me translate Earp-speak - that would be the ultimate GC death :eek:

Elliot Yamin's CD came out last Tuesday and I have to say, I like what I hear!

I dig the fact that he did "A Song for You" again.

Seriously! He is a damn good singer... I think he blows all of the current male AI contestants out of the water.

Gwen Stefani looks so strange without red lipstick, I hardly recognize her.

Chris was terrible and all over the place. Sanjaya may be safe another week.

Sanjayas hair... WTH???

biggest laugh I've had all week!

Was I the only one thinking Gwen looks scarily like Heide (The Hills) without the red lipstick??? Look at her teeth.

:( Chris. Horrible tonight. I hope he gets to hang in.

Lakisha... loved her. And I wana know where she got that dress.

Sansucka... woah.

Haley sounded good!

What the hell was up with Sanjaya's hair? He seriously needs to go.

Off topic, we saw Chris Daughtry in Greensboro last week (along with 26,000 other people) and he was AWESOME live. I think not winning was the best thing to ever happen to him!

OH NO, Sanjaya DID NOT just come out on stage with a dead animal on his head!
I honestly think he's trying to get kicked off now. He's a laughing stock.

I'm shocked you all think Chris R. was horrible tonight. He was one of the very few I liked this week.

Is it just me, or have all the contestants become boring as sin???

I love love Gina too. Forgot to mention.

I also forgot to mention that I bought Daughtry on iTunes. FAAAAAAAABULOUS! I'm in love!

I agree that the contestants are boring :( It makes me sad. Last season there were two (Chris & Kathryn) that I REALLY liked & wanted to win... this year I feel kinda 'eh' about all of them.

I think I like Jordin & Haley though.

I loooooove your "OMG did Sunjaya just come out with a dead animal on his head" .. bwahahaha that was awesome.

I think it's kinda sad b/c I think he knows he should have been gone awhile back.

Sanjaya looks insane! Omigoodness. *blank stare*

I wanted to pelt Chris. He messed up one of my favorite songs. I swear, I'm really mad.

I actually thought she looked like Hugh Heffner's girlfriend Holly. And they sounded almost the same too.

I love how Simon basically told Sanjaya (without actually coming right out and saying it) that he sucks and that he should thank the stupid folk in America for ruining the rest of every smart person's Tuesday night when they have to hear him sing.

I do agree that he does have 1-2 good moments...but he's 17. He should be trying out for a lead in the school musical, not American Idol.

The guys all suck this year. Yes, even Blake. He's not grabbing me.
The girls on the other hand are pretty good.

It'll be interesting to see who goes this week. I'd love it to be Sanjaya, but I have a feeling it'll be Chris S. or Haley.

Sad thing is, his crazy faux-hawk will probably help him stay another week!

That's who it was!!! I couldn't figure it out for the life of me!

All in all, AI is a yawn this year. I <3 LaKisha and I love to listen to Melinda sing. However, I don't see either of them as a Kelly Clarkson-type star.

Ditto.

Meanwhile, Sanjaya MUST go!!! That fauxhawk was the last straw! I was appalled that he wasn't in the bottom two last week. :mad:

And not in the bottom 3 this week. Unbelievable. Do some people think they are supposed to vote for the person that they want gone????

WHY IS SANJAYA STILL HERE?!?!?!?!?!?:mad::mad:

And I'm actually kinda glad that the person going home was sent home. He started getting a little cocky recently.

He's still there because Howard Stern and the Vote for the Worst are pimping Sanjaya. People who don't even watch AI are voting for him just to see what happens. I think it's kinda cruel...you can tell Sanjaya doesn't want to be there anymore.

I read that Simon said he'd quit if Sanjaya wins. Hey jackass....you're the one who put him into the Top 24 when he was obviously the weakest contestant.

Dear citizens of America,

If the 'Fro Patrol starts burning down Greenville, it's your fault.

Signed,
Greenville Resident

P.S. Why in the devil is Sanjaya still on there? :confused:

How the heck is Sanjaya going to perform a Tony Bennett song?

His continued presence on the show is undoing any credibility the show had built.

His hair will be greased back next week...

I can't imagine the producers would let him stay to the final 3? Don't you think they'd "fix" the vote to get him off before then?

I have no idea what to believe at this point.

Remember how long John Stevens stayed? He was just as bad. I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot more of Sanjaya.

Dude, I swear I walked past him on the street on my way home from work on Tuesday. It kind of scared me that I recognized him.. but it was the bright red hair. I wonder if he goes to Berklee or Northeastern.

With every elimination, I lose more and more respect for American Idol because of Sanjaya still being there. This season makes me sooo mad.....

I read somewhere that he goes to Berklee. That probably was him who you saw.

GO AWAY SANJAYA!!!!!! YOU SUCK AND IT IS APPARENT THAT YOU ARE AWARE OF THIS!!!!!!!!!!!

Busted Tees now has a Sanjaya tee available for pre-order. I just wish he'd go away so I could concentrate on the better singers more.
