Members Sweet_VeeVee24 Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Someone on the news was saying that tonight...that Taylor has completely been forgotten...not talked about since AI and his album debuted way back when. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members anita30 Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Well I guess I am officially done with AI. I mean this should not have happened at all. Melinda with out a doubt should be in the final. I hate when America votes cause they do crap like this but why am I surprised last year Tayer Hicks and well Sanjaya still in the the top ten.

Members DaysFanJean Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Taylor still has his RABID fans. Probably a dwindling group but unfortunately, I'm in a group with some of them and I cannot stand their crowing about their idol. Blind and deaf. Anyway now they are crowing about voting Blake through. The problem is that there are not enough people who care who do vote because they are not RABID. If Jordin is excellent in the finale, I'll break a standard and vote my fingers off for her and suggest everyone who wants her to win over Blake do the same. Unfortunately, most folks who win an election win it because of RABID supporters and those who aren't motivated enough to vote, suffer the consequences...........harumph, off my bandstand now.

Members Angela Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Everybody thought Melinda was so IN...so people were voting like crazy for Blake and Jordin (thinking they weren't safe) taking for granted that Melinda might go home. I thought about voting for Melinda last night, but then I thought to myself there's no way she's going home even without my calls. Sigh. It would have been a truly fantastic finale with Jordin and Melinda (best ever!), but since it's not to be - Jordin all the way! Melinda will kick butt even without the win.

Members PhoenixRising05 Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 I don't think we have ever had a stunning elimination in the final 2. It usually happens sooner then this. Plus, I think this was the first time in the final 3 that the person who went last left. Usually it was the person who went first. Hardly ever does the person who sang last get voted out. On other boards, the speculation is that the producers, particularly Nigel, wanted Melinda out because ratings have been sagging and her getting to the finale may be too easy to predict. Plus, they get the young demo for the finale now. I doubt this because they pimped Melinda last night. They gave her the pimp spot on the show. I think people just thought she was safe based on last night. I mean, it does seem like she was in the bottom with Lakisha last week so I just think her fans didn;t vote as hard. Whatever the case, this year has to go to Jordin. I have said it since auditions that Jordin will win it. I love Melinda and she will do fine. I still hate this but I guess she may be better off. Jordin needs to belt it out next week and I think she will. The usual Idol ballads are tailer made for her. I will be voting and I think all those who want to salvage this season need to vote for her too. I just hate that we won't have the finale we should've. Simon looked so mad, as did Randy. Ugh. Oh, and on another note, who gave Jordin and Melinda the flowers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaysFanJean Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Phoenix, did you notice Simon tonight? I know you mentioned sometime back about how the lead in to the elimination could tell if it would be a surprise. Even though Ryan remarked a couple of weeks ago that no one knew the results except Nigel and him, I think that was not true tonight because Simon was PALE and distraught looking from the beginning of the show. He really looked despondent. I think Melinda had a good idea what was going to happen. She was very gracious. It was good to see Elliott there who finished third in Season 4. proving that life just gets better from there. We'll be seeing Melinda again, too, and definitely hearing about her.

Members King Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Katherine McPhee doesn't have a career. She has one single, and it stinks. And she's mentally INSANE. But Ruben and Fantasia have proved winning this competition isn't everything. Melinda fans are so going over to the Jordin side. Blaker Girls suck! Get a life, losers!

Members KLN Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 FUUUUUUUUUUUCK. YOOOOOOU. AMERICA! First, Maroon 5 sucked tonight. Yuck! I'm thrilled for Jordin, because I thought for sure that she would go home tonight, so I was relieved when they told her that she was safe. I feel terrible for Melinda, though! She was, by far, the most consistent performer of the entire season. She's not the best vocalist, but there was never a single song that she really performed badly... that should've earned her a spot in the final two, IMO. Can anyone actually say that Blake would still be there if his little fan-girls didn't think he was "cute?" I mean, if he was some ugly Elliott Yamin-looking mofo, he would've been gone weeks ago! The only reason he's still there is because he makes panties wet all across America, and that's no reason to win. He's fantasic at beat boxing, but when it comes to his actual SINGING vocals -- and this IS a singing competition -- he sucks! Sometimes I wonder if I'm listening to his performances with the same ears as everyone else, because I just don't understand how I could think he sucks so badly while others think he's the best thing since Frank Sinatra. Jordin and Melinda returning to their hometowns got me a little teary-eyed, LoL. They seemed genuinely surprised and touched at all the support. Blake, on the other hand? He just acted like a rockstar, as if he's used to people falling at his feet on a daily basis. Cocky little bitch. Did y'all notice Blake's reply to Ryan Seacrest when he was asked whether or not it was a dream come true to perform with "Sir Mix-A-Lot?" He just nonchalantly shrugged and replied that he's 'performed with him before,' as if he's used to performing stars because he's a 'star' himself. Get over yourself, you little pissant! Meanwhile, what's with people remarking on Jordin's weight? I've looked on other message boards and people are ripping her apart, saying that "nobody wants a fatass idol." WTF? If you think she's a terrible singer, fine... but her weight has nothing to do with it. She's not fat, anyway! Curvy, yes... fat is definitely an overstatement. Either way, it's Jordin and Blake in the final two. Regardless who wins, they're both going to have careers in music, IMO. I'm not sure which will be the more successful of the two, but they'll both release albums, definitely. I'm sort of hoping that Jordin loses (though she deserves to win and get the spotlight in the finale), that way she has a chance to go around and choose between all the various record labels rather than being stuck having to put together a cliche American Idol album. Wouldn't it be funny if Blake won the whole thing and they didn't give him any "artistic freedom" and he wasn't allowed to beat box even once on his album? That'd be fantastic!

Members KLN Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Oh, did anyone notice Ryan's little slip-up tonight? Right before a commercial break, he said, "Coming up next, Melinda goes home!" I know he meant that they were going to show clips from her return to her hometown... but the way he worded it has many people curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members David_Vickers Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Katharine McPhee's career is just starting. She's very talented and beautiful. Her single "Over It" is very good. It didn't get the airplay it should've. It did make #22, a nice start in a promising career. Taylor Hicks has NEVER made the POP 100/Top 40 Mainstream Airplay charts!!!!!!!!! Ruben Studdard did well on the R&B/Urban charts and is still doing good on the Urban AC charts. Fantasia is doing very well on the R&B/ Urban charts. Don't count on it King. A lot of Melinda fans, and I am a major one as well, are PISSED AS HELL that the over-rated cute teenbopping cow Jordin got in the finals instead of Melinda and will vote even stronger for Blake. I am definitely gonna vote as many times as my phone can dial to keep that over-rated cutesy teen cow from winning. Sorry Blake's fans aren't just girls. They are many, including a lot of guys. I see a lot of guys liking Blake. I know several coworkers like Blake, of differing ages, including some in their 40's and I'm a 37 year old guy myself. Also King, you conviently overlook that YOUR Jordin is a 17 year old TEEN her damned self! A lot of those teeny girls that you've been blaming for Blake staying on the show, are voting for damn Jordin. King, everyone's entitled to their opinion and I'm sick of hell of your wishing Blake would die and calling those who voted for King names. Talk about childish! I stooped to your level a few posts back and just did that to give you a tast of your own medicine. If Jordin wins IDOL next week then I'm done with IDOL period. I was pissed 3 years ago when Diana DeGarmo who couldnt hardly carry a tune wound up in the finals (Thank God America wisened up and Fantasia won!!). I was pissed 2 years ago when Carrie Underwood won over Bo Bice (even though I'm now glad she won since Bo has sold out). I was very,very, very pissed last year when Chris Daughtry went home in 4th place and Taylor Hicks won (I still think that last year's season was fixed). And now another horrrible outcome with Melinda (whom Simon ID'd correctly as the most consistent this season) going home and Jordin(who's highly, highly, highly overrated and needs voice lessons and has been downright horrible in 3 shows this season) is in the finals and may end up winning. If Jordin does, then I'll have a lot of free time starting in January of 08! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 Cow? Psssh! People aren't pissed that Jordin won over Melinda. They're pissed that Blake won over Melinda. Plus, it came down to those two, so it's going to send a subconscious message to voters that Blake's the one who took Melinda's spot rather than Jordin... and I'm glad it happened that way. More Blake hate!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 17, 2007 Members Share Posted May 17, 2007 I noticed that and mentioned it. I took it that he knew the results of the vote and accidently let it slip out. Later in the show Melinda was elimianted and I wasnt surprised Im upset Jordin stayed over Melinda bc I called a Melinda vs Blake showdown from the beginning and was really expecting to see it. All 3 were great and I would have been fine with either win, but I definetly have my preference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
