And what is with tatiana taking the middle seat in the bottom row instead of sitting with the others in the top row? Attentionseeker much? And that dress..could she have chosen anything that made her look fatter?

If she's chosen as one of the final 12 i don't think i can watch the show.

A pitchfork is much too small!!!! What is sad about her is that she has an AMAZING AMAZING VOICE!!!! But when someone is as LOONY TUNES AS SHE IS there is nothing that can overcome it. She needs serious professional help!!!

http://www.votefortheworst.com candidate is Megan, which is weird 'cause I thought Jasmine and the oil driller guy (can't remember his name) was worse . .

The rumored change in voting this year:

As if this show hasn’t jumped the shark yet, this week will probably do in the Idol franchise. After adding in a top 13 with a different number because Idol didn’t plan ahead and think to buy 1-866-IDOLS-13, adding a fourth judge that says nothing interesting and hits on the contestants, changing the semifinal format to eliminate any contestant who has any bit of controversy, and announcing the judges as they walk in as if people care about them… apparently there is another twist. Rumor has it that the judges will be deciding who goes home out of the bottom 2 or 3. If Idol thinks its ratings are down now, just wait till they unleash that puppy.



one more thing. . . the judges' and producers' obvious pimping of Adam is getting annoying . . cut it out. .

I dont think it will matter if they put thier hand in it or not because if your in the bottom 2 or 3 now your chances are slim you will live to see the top 8...

Heck ill even go further and give the top 5 and see how I do...

Alexis,Adam,Lil,Danny, and Allison....

I think they are doing it for 2 reasons:

1. To outwit the DialIdol Follks
2. To to make official what has been rumoured since the beginning: TPTB will, if there is little differernce of votes between the bottom 2 or 3, will make choice themselves who goes. . . . . to manipulate the narrative of the show . . . for ratings. ..

What you didn't see on Idol last night.

I liked Jorge last week, but didn't like him at all this week. I like Anoop, but he's just not as good as everyone wants him to be... that was painful to watch. I thought Kris singing that song with the guitar was a little awkward, or something. Megan is weird, but I like the dingbat for some strange reason. Don't think she'll go very far, but not going home tonight. *caw caw* Beyond awkward. A robin doesn't even caw.

I like Allison and Michael a lot... and they couldn't be more different. :P

Who's going home? I think it will be two out of these three: Jorge, Jasmine, Kris.

Anoop should go home, but this is more of a popularity contest than a singing competition and he is quite the popular guy. Heck, I thought he was atrocious the past few weeks and even I can't help but like him.


P.S. I thank the good Lord that Tatiana isn't there.

DialIdol results Jasmine, Allison and Jorge. . . though technically matt, mike, megan, and kris could be thrown in there as substitutes . . . .

I saw those last night... it's hard to believe that Allison is so low. She's really good, particularly considering she's only 16 years old!

DialIdol isn't always right, but I believe they're much more accurate than they used to be, so that could very well be the bottom 3. A lot of the results are really close, though.


lol - you edited while I was replying.
