American Idol

Chris, Paris and Katharine were the best. Kellie was by far the worst, I gave her a 2 on a scale of 1-10. Kevin next. I hope Kellie leaves, she's way over-rated and I hated the way she tried to look like Carrie Underwood tonight.

OMG Cheap - did you just make a comparison between Aiden Turner and Simon Cowell??? That is DISGUSTING...lol - but the shirt and overall look I can kinda see...but dang...Aiden is hot, Simon is not! Now if Aiden and Ryan Seacrest want to get together - that'd be nice....lol - it wouldn't surprise be in the least with either of them going that way....

[King]

I wouldn't say Simon's unattractive.

[alwaysAMC]

No Simon's not ugly at all...he's just ok - but I think Cheap knows just how hot I think Aiden Turner is...lol

Maybe I am in the minority but I am one of the few Melissa fans out there. I actually like her voice alot. She has a very rich soothing sulty tone to her voice and her voice is like no other. I believe Melissa has gotten the short end of the stick is because she was barely featured in the early rounds which made her disconnect with audiences more. I was not a big Ayla fan and thought her performance last week stunk but I actually like Melissa. I think she is one of the better singers in the competition. I actually think she is way stronger of a singer then Kellie Pickler. Ms. Picker though has gotten tons of airtime galore and everyone thinks she is so darn cute. I think her voice is completely average and she was always a poor man's Carrie Underwood to me. She has never done anything for me period. Katherine I cannot put my finger on it, I just cannot conect with her. She is a good singer but there is something off about her. Lisa is a good singer but she has bored me to tears for weeks with her boring songs. So I am in a small minority but I really like Melissa alot and if she had gotten half the airtime Paris, Kellie, or Katherine got that she would have a bigger fanbase.

I wanted to squish Kevin too... just to shut him up... Is he oblivious or he is playing up to the camera? I just can't believe it.

Kellie on the other hand is totally playing it up for the camera. "Sorry! Sorry! Sorry!" "They're not REAL tarantulas!" Oh brother

Ace's performance was a mess, it was all over the place... Lisa is very boring, there's nothing special about her. Paris has energy, but I am getting flashes of a not so annoying Fantasia in her. Bucky did okay, he picked the right song, but no way is he the best of the competition. Taylor was okay, but his gimmick is getting old very fast. Katharine did well again, but there were a few bad spots. Melissa was okay also, but her voice is not as strong as it could be and her personality isn't high up there either, I think its lack of airtime though. Chris is just blah for me. He's fine as in okay, but nothing special either.

Let me finish my assessments, LOL.

Chris - he did good but not as great as the past couple of weeks. It just was "aight" for me. Not the best last night but still the best male in the competition.

Oh I agree about Kellie. I mean she gives a good laugh and shes cute but the act is getting old FAST. I thought she sucked last night and in any real competition she'd probably be toast but because she is so LOVED (Gag) she'll sail through when she she really shouldn't. Same for Kevin.

I really dont know who is going home tonight. I mean, Melissa, Bucky and Kevin could be. But then in polls Lisa and Paris arent that well liked, although I think their performances helped them.

But in a PERFECT world and if this wasn't more about popularity... I would wish Ace, Kellie, Kevin, Bucky and Melissa be the next five out. They were the worst out of all of them but that was based on THAT NIGHT's performance.

We'll see. LOL.

But on the AOL poll, here's how it stands:

1. Katharine (thank god)

2. Kellie (ugh)

3. Chris (good)

4. Taylor (good)

5. Mandisa (arg should be #2)

6. Elliot (not surprising)

7. Bucky (whoa!)

8. Ace (good)

9. Lisa (eh)

10. Kevin (ugh too high)

11. Melissa (too low)

12. Paris (way too low)

Now tell me the teenybopper 13 year olds arent stuffing this aol thing. LOL.

Oh and the MSNBC polls are much better (i dont think theyve changed much since last week):

1. Chris (31%)

2. Taylor (16%)

2. Mandisa (16%)

4. Kellie (10%)

5. Katharine (7%)

6. Ace (6%)

7. Elliot (5%)

8. Paris (4%)

9. Bucky (3%)

10. Lisa (2%)

11. Kevin (1%)

12. Melissa (1%)

But its interesting to note that the top 5 are the same in each poll (just a little different rankings). I really do think that this is how it will turn out, or at least come very close to it. We'll see though. Theres bound to be at least one or two upsets. I hated Constantine last year but was shocked he was gone (Scott should of gone though) and Nadia was done in by her poor song choices cause she rocked. Vonzell just managed to wow us more.

[hollynadinem]

Wow those poll results are really interesting, thanks for sharing them. I am surprised to see Paris so low I think she sings good and is cute and she's my 6 year olds fav so I hope she doesn't go for awhile. I thought Katharine, Mandisa, and Paris were the best girls last night and Chris and Taylor were the best guys. I think Elliott has a good voice but he does nothing for me his performances are boring, same thing for Lisa although she finally showed a little personality last night. I think Bucky and Melissa will be in the bottom two and not sure who else, if we are lucky Kellie but maybe Kevin, although I think he has enough fan base to stick around for awhile.

[alwaysAMC]

Ok after watching rest of my tape:

Melissa was bad, Lisa was ok but boring, and Kevin - are you kidding? Kevin being there is a joke....he's so stiff too - i hate that hand he puts up throughout his whole performance. Oh and who's idea was it to put lipstick on a little boy? Simon is so right with his assessment of Kevin - APPALLING.

Katharine did an AWESOME job.

Taylor was ok - but I'm tired of him moving around like Ray Charles and yelling "HEY!" throughout his songs....but he did pretty well tonight.

Paris was GOOD!

Chris was ok for me...not best of night though!

[OneLife Fan]

LOL....i hear u about Paris!! Like excuse me...tame it down a bit. It is annoying.

[King]

Paris and Taylor have unique sounds that would definitely benefit them more had there been a competition like this a decade or two ago. Their sounds won't fly during this time and age. But they're two of the most talented, IMO.

This season is weird. It's like Chris, Paris, Mandisa, Lisa, and Taylor are all good. I'm not sure who is more talented than who or who has a better voice than who. I enjoy Chris' performances the most, but let's be honest, it's his song choices. He doesn't have the best voice. But he has the It/X factor they talk about. They're all kind of on the same plain talent wise. It should be an interesting final 6. I think this season is going to be filled with upsets.

[OneLife Fan]

I watched the auditions again last night and i do agree this year will be full of upsets. The first upset came with Ayla not making the Top 10 over Melissa.

[King]

ITA. Ayla.

[OneLife Fan]

That still pisses me off!! So just for that..please America get Kevin and Melissa out first!!

[Emily]

What makes you think she's "playing it up for the camera". That is just how Kellie is, like it or not. I hate when people say that she's fake just because she is so ditzy.. I love Kellie. She wasn't great last night, her singing was alright, but the song just..wasn't her at all. As she said, she didn't know what she was doing. That's not her genre of music. Give her some slack.

Besides that though, Taylor was awesome last night! LOVED him. And of course Chris was great. Everyone kinda sucked last night..I didn't really LOVE anyone's performance last night except Taylors, he cracks me up..I love him!

And. Will.
