I, too, feel like tonight is Paris' night, although I do not agree.

My thoughts;

Katherine, ok, not as bad as the judges said, but not that good either.

Elliot, Great performance last night, but I'm not sure it's enough to save him.

Taylor, ok, not one of his better performances, but he's still my favotite.

Paris, Great performance, but I think her voice overpowers everything she sings.

Chris, nice voice, but I wasn't impressed with his performance last night. I think he's been better.

Kellie. God, this girl is afwul!! These last two weeks have been painful to watch. I can't believe she's still here. If she doesn't leave tonight it will be totally unfair. The other singers left are so much better than Kellie and it would be a shame to keep her in at their expense.

Kellie has been god awful. If she doesn't get the boot then something is terribly wrong with this show. All the judges were unaninamous with her and she should be OUT! Enough with the fakeness PLEASE!

Paris was OK. I expected MUCH more from Taylor, the song fits him perfectly but he messed up badly! Elliot was great but the song sucked.

Katherine BUTCHERED Whitney Houston's song. Vonzell Solomon did it right last year. Katherine tried to put her own twang on it and it SUCKED. Glad the judges let her know.

Chris was the best. Point blank baby. He has to win!

WOOO HOO FOR KAT! Simon and Randy APOLOGIZED! Yes!

Katherine was excellent last night, I'm so glad Simon and Randy apologized! I just hope she doesn't go home. Now that Chris is finally singing instead of screaming those Heavy Metal songs, I'm starting to like him. He was great this week. Paris I know has a decent voice, but I think she oversings everything and is very annoying. I don't like her at all. Unpopular I think. Kellie is just painfully bad, but I could see her being a big success based on her looks and the fact that she CAN sing well enough to put out a good pop album.

BTW, can someone tell my why Andrea keeps his eyes closed? Is he blind?

WOOO HOO FOR KAT! Simon and Randy APOLOGIZED! Yes!

And I missed it?? Ah, at least they did.

Thank You America!

I'll second that.

For once, I agreed with everything. The top 2, the middle 2, and the bottom 2.

omg, the !@#$%^&*] doesnt shut up. I loved how Fox just cut her off. Thank goodness we didnt have to hear her sing again

WOW!

I wanted this so bad and now it happened. Weird feeling!

I feel bad for her. But I would have been pissed if she won this thing or even made it to the top 3. So yeah! But she definitely has a future. Definitely.

And haha, Katherine beat out Taylor...maybe there is a God.

I Was almost feeling bad for Paris too. Sheesh.

And yeah to Chris and Katherine making the top! Is this the first time that the show has commented on how was in the top rather than just the bottom?

I think Taylor, Chris and Katherine are the top 3. I like Katherine but don't think she should win. IMO, ideally it should be Taylor, Chris and Elliott in the top 3. That would gauruntee a male win and Eliott is really good and I am really glad he has made it this far.

BTW, can someone tell my why Andrea keeps his eyes closed? Is he blind?

yes, he actually is blind. But man, what a voice!

and Pickler is finally gone, praise the lord!

THANK GOD!!!

This was truly a night of payoffs with Simon and Randy apologizing. Sire Kat didn't sing anywhere close to Whitney but there is only one Whitney and Kat was not bad last night. Its rare to see them apologize but I am glad they did and rightfully so.

I was happy they told us who had the highest number and was middle and so on. I know it makes things uncomfortable for the singers but it tells you who has the best shot at this point.

I also liked Ryan and Co. acknowledging the alleged feud between Paula and him with the whole "dysfunctional family" comment. I do think Ryan's ego is getting too big but I don't think any of the judges or Ryan hate each other.

America got it right. Kellie was given so many reprieves and, while I did like her and still do at times, it was her time to go. I do feel bad for her though. She was annoying but I think she just tried to hard to get attention and get people to like her. Did anyone notice they slowed down the "Had a bad day" song this week?

I am glad they saved Paris. I do think Elliot and her are the most vulnerable though but Taylor is losing votes it seems. It should be Katherine/Chris in the finale. I said it from day one that one of them will win it (instincts tell me Kat but would AI let another girl win it?). Kat is definitely the better singer between her and Chris but that is who the finale should be and most likely will be. They are the most marketable too, other the Paris.

I guess next week there is no guest and the singers sing twice. I think that is what happens once you get down to five. We are really getting to the end here. Great to see Lisa in the audience and happy that she is on OC tomarrow. Andrea Bocelli was excellent-I love the guy but that Foster dude is tough and very hard to please.

Oh and Fox cutting her off was kinda mean but I think Kellie did not want to butcher the song again. She seemed uncomfortable with it and sucked so she probably said she didn't want to sing at the end, which is probably why they let her talk to the end (Ryan did tell her she had 40 seconds). She did handle it well and was very sincere for once.

Simon and Randy had it right the first time. The song was too big and too good for Katherine. Now, Trenyce from the second season, she did the song some justice! (She sang that...right? )

Anyhoo, bye, Kellie! Won't miss ya!
