I actually like Melissa. I don't think she'll win but I prefer her to Paris or Pickler any day. Love VFTW on Pickler: http://votefortheworst.com/pickler.html

I couldn't stand Gedeon and glad he's gone. I loved the other seven guys. Kevin and Will are both cute in different ways and talented. I don't really dislike any of the Top 12 and that is a first. Normally there are several I am dying to get rid of (Corey Clarke and Trenyce come to mind). I think several people could be out next week based on song selection. I'm sure the judges will try to influence the non-faves to go, so people like Melissa, Kevin, Bucky, Lisa, Paris, etc better be GREAT. I think Chris, Taylor, etc will be safe for a while regardless of whether they have some bad weeks.

Heh, Roger. I liked that little thing on Pickler too. It definitely has me looking at her in a new light, true or not (and the part about her performing before IS true, as there are pictures online). I do think she's a bumpkin who has little knoweldge of a lot of things, but she's not as bad off as has been fed to us. IMO, of course.

I agree with Drew that Melissa is probably out next week. Then it's anyone's guess.

Mandisa, Chris or Katharine will win this season, I think.

Kevin's this year's Scott Savol. Waste of space that lasts FAR too long.

I felt bad for Ayla, but I'm glad that Melissa is around for at least one more week!

I love that song they play at the end when the people get kicked off. If anyone's wondering, it's called 'Bad Day' by Daniel Powter.

Katherine is too fake. She annoys me. I hated it when they called her name and she acted surprised, adjusting her hair, taking small cute little steps, adjusting her hair, more little steps, adjusting her hair. Ugh. So annoying and so fake. I can spot it a mile away.

Melissa or Kevin will be the first one to go...actually the first ones to go.

[KMan101]

I agree; Melissa and Kevin won't last very long at all, but if Vote for the Worst keeps Kevin around, toss Bucky in there too. After those three THEN we've got a competition!

Oh, and thanks for the Bad Day song info. I was wondering about that.

[OneLife Fan]

I like Bucky!! Nice country singer!!

I sure hope Kellie and Katharine and Taylor are not in the final four. Chris definitely deserves to be in the final 2. I hope Mandisa, Elliot & either Paris, Ace or Bucky will the other 3. Kellie seems so fake to me, acting like Carrie Underwood, but the minx has come out (as Simon said). Katharine is very pretty, the prettiest girl in the top 12, but her voice isn't very good. Taylor is good, but he bugs me and gets on my nerves. Does look like he's starting to use Just for Men though, lol.

I agree Melissa will be out next week, probably followed by Kevin. Neither should have been in the Top 12, Ayla & Gedeon are better, Ayla much better (she just sung the wrong song, which goes to show how important song choice is this year).

AOL popularity results:

1. Chris

2. Taylor

3. Kellie

4. Mandisa

5. Katharine

6. Ace

7. Elliot

8. Paris

9. Lisa

10. Melissa

11. Bucky

12. Kevin

No percentages are available, it's just 1-12 in terms of popularity. I'm not all that thrilled about #'s 2 and 3, but eh. I'm not surprised about the bottom people, though.

I love it that u post these!! Thanx..they are fun to read!!

[KMan101]

No problem, Claude.

Granted, it isn't always a 100% indicator of what's gonna happen, but IMO, it's a very close gauge.

The only reason Kevin got in the top 12 was because of the votefortheworst.com website. IMO. And they also picked Kellie, but no surprise she made it either, cause everyone "loves her." I think she's alright but quite overrated.

I'm also not very surprised by the current poll results. That's about how I see things going, too. Unfortunately for some (like Katharine and Elliot, who should make it farther than Kellie/Taylor... hopefully they will). I'm hoping song choice kills Kellie and Kevin's chances, LOL.

If Taylor stopped hamming it up and acting like he has seizures, I might be able to like him. I think he's a tad overrated, too. He sounded horrible singing on Wednesday. Maybe he was sick. Very, very raspy.

[OneLife Fan]

yes taylor was raspy this time around...but he was AWESOME the first week.

[KMan101]

I'll admit he did really well the first two weeks. Not sure what the hell happened this week, LOL. I guess everyone has an off night; it happens.

[Emily]

I loved Taylor! I was laughing my ass off the whole time because of the arm swinging bit! hahah

[OneLife Fan]

His singing was a bit raspy..but the performance killed me!! I loved it!!

Me too Emily!!
