Amercian Idol 3/27-3/28

I would have preferred for Gwen to have sung some of the songs from her first album…

Sanjaya’s safe.

And Gwen is sounding awful.

Agreed. But at least she didn’t yodel.

Damn, that was a great performance. I had never even heard that song before. Thanks for the link.

Eh, well, I saw that one coming.

Ok kids, for those of us at work or not near a tv the bottom 3 are…
C’mon and tell us.

Well it’s all gotta be over by now.

What happened?!?!?!?!

Helloooooooo…

Bueller?

Bueller?

Anybody?

Okay

Bottom 3 are Chris S, Phil and Haley.
Phil gets sent back to the seats.
Chris S. goes home.

Really? I didn’t expect that at all.

At least we get to ogle Haley for another week…

A few weeks ago, this result would have shocked me. Now, all I can think is “meh”. Overall, this season’s been disappointing so far.

Word. My Fantasy American Idol Boot List Bracket is completely shot to hell.

No shit,** rockle**, no shit. Me too.

Okay, I voted for Blake a lot, but I really had high hopes that Sligh would be back on his game next week.

WTF. Haley?? Really??? Are there THAT many men voting???

Next year, when I participate in the AI Predictions thread, I’m just going to throw out my own brand of logic and shuffle the whole list, letting it come down at random. Hey, it’s gotta work better than the logic I tried to employ this year!

I just had a feeling he would be in big trouble after that performance so I wasn’t that surprised. I would have liked to see him stick around longer but c’est la vie.

I really wanted Haley to go home for daring to sing “True Colors”.

Not a great surprise. It was bound to happen sooner or later.

Ditto. I think I’ll use a ouija board next time, or maybe throw darts at a list of names…That’ll give me a better chance of picking the correct order.

I don’t watch the show but this Sanjaya fellow certainly seems to be making a name for himself. I can hardly turn a corner at work without hearing people talking about him. I don’t stay tuned into the conversations long enough to hear what’s being said but, what is that saying about there being no such thing as bad publicity?

Besides, the show isn’t over yet and he’s already gotten his own spin-off thread! Sounds like success to me.

This season is making the regular news and news commentary programs now. The apparent efforts to keep Sanjaya in the competition is seen as destroying the show. Many calls are coming in from overseas to keep Sanjaya not so much as to screw the system but to do it “for his people.”

Regardless of who wins, it is still up to the record company that signs with the winner whether they would ever release their first album. And since that falls to Simon, who has already expressed his displeasure with Sanjaya, one could surmise that if Sanjaya “wins” the competition, his album either will not get released by the record company or will get released with minimal to no promotion from the company.

It’s not personal. It’s business. :smiley:

Someone feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t this impossible? The AI toll-free numbers aren’t accessable even from Canada, let alone overseas.

As for tonight, meh. Sligh has been losing it…it almost felt like he intentionally blew it. Of course, I’d have much rather seen Haley get booted, but there’s always next week for that.
