American Idol 8

[quote=Phoenix;56850]Right. I believe that the judges will save her as well. Simon just said that there was only one in the bottom 3 worth saving... I believe he was talking about Allison.[/quote] Yeah I would assume the same thing too. I hope Allison doesn't go home!

I'm going to make a tshirt that says.. "Anoop is my homeboy".

[quote=Phoenix;56851]Edit: Megan is out unless they save her... and they are not.[/quote] Yesssssss...so Megan is gone?

Simon is an ***...

Ahhh man! I am so sad to hear this. Anoop, I am not, trying to be mean, has probably done the worst in my opinion.

[quote=Phoenix;56856]Yeah. Simon told her she was leaving before she even sung the song.[/quote] Ouch! That's rough.

I'm so glad Matt is safe!!

Wow that was very disrespectful what Simon did to her.. I would have walked off the stage

Simon was just ****** at her "I don't care" comment. All Megan cares about are what few fans she has. She's not meant to be a mainstream artist. I see her as more of a Vegas act. Her personality and the way she dresses stand out more so than her voice. I kind of wondered whether or not Megan was high on something last night. It's obvious she knew it was her time to go home, but the way she was carrying on I wonder if she was stoned or something. She actually did her exiting performance better last night than she did Tuesday night.

Simon is a fool, but a very rich one.

So this week's theme is songs from the year they were born. I guess they can't just call it 80s week since Allison was born in either 92 or 93 depending on the month she was born. So we've got another theme with a very broad song choice base... I can already see tomorrow night coming with nothing but bad song choice critiques. I can't wait till we get down to the top 6 where we will have nothing but the best contestants remaining and it'll actually be hard seeing them go home. I'm predicting that Anoop and Scott will be the next two to go.

I missed so much of last night, I only caught the last 20 minutes! I loved Allison once again, she is amazing. Can someone please tell me what the big draw to Adam is? I could see where he would be perfect on Broadway, but I would not buy his albums. He is very high pitched and sometimes I do hear a little Led Zepplin esque quality to his voice. Maybe if he sang a Led Zepplin, Ozzy, or just a Robert Plant song it might fit better for me. I am just totally confused by him.

In fact I dislike him even more now because when I went to watch Fringe @ 9:01 I got stuck watching his performance. Boo.

Boo.[/quote] I can see your opinion, but honestly, no one has done better than him, and to me that is a fact. Even if you don't see the draw. Not to mention he has been the only consistent one.

I definetly don't want Adam to win this thing. I think somebody like Allison or Lil deserves it the most.

[quote=Dartagnan;58403]I can see your opinion, but honestly, no one has done better than him, and to me that is a fact. Even if you don't see the draw. Not to mention he has been the only consistent one.[/quote] Better than him in what way Dart? Choosing his songs? Singing his songs? Stage presence? Likability factor? The only fact here is that there are people saying that he is not that good, and people saying that he is awesome. For the most part the judges have given him great critique and others when I think that Simon has been the only one hearing the same thing I am. He has consistently been him self, and should hold his head high, I am not knocking him. I just do not think he is the next American Idol, If this was America's next broadway idol, then i would say hands down he is the winner. It is still too early to say who will win and their are a few dark horses left in this race. Between Adam, Kris, Lil, Matt, Allison, and even Anoop I have no idea who will win this thing, and m very excited for the amount of talent that has been found this year. I will say this I am a fan of country music, proudly, and I love old country...Adam's cover of Johnny Cash's [I]Burning ring of fire[/I], was a big turn off to me.

Fact would be saying that Adam has received a larger amount of votes than everyone else, which you cannot prove.

Agreed it is very early to call anyone winner. Maybe that is why I loved that performance from him, I do not like country at all, and his rendition was very far away from it. [quote]Besides Adam, I think it is Scott's time to go tonight...[/quote] I have to agree with Scott going home as well. He seems to be getting a sympathy vote.

I missed the show tonight. Will someone please PM me and tell me who was in the bottom three.. and who went home? :)

You can tell who went home here after it has aired on the east coast. Plus I want to know too so I don't have to watch it :D

[quote=OtherPplsDrama;58445]You can tell who went home here after it has aired on the east coast. Plus I want to know too so I don't have to watch it :D[/quote] Or you can do what I do and check Wikipedia :) Bottom 3: [SPOILER]Lil, Anoop, Scott[/SPOILER] Bottom 2: [SPOILER]Anoop, Scott[/SPOILER] And going home is: [SPOILER]Scott.[/SPOILER]

[quote=Phoenix;58412]I wish Adam would go tonight! Lol. But sadly, I think he will be with us for a while. Besides Adam, I think it is Scott's time to go tonight...[/quote] Look who's psychic. You hit it dead on.

Good call. It was his time. I agree with D that he was getting a sympathy vote/edit.

[quote=OtherPplsDrama;58458]Good call. It was his time. I agree with D that he was getting a sympathy vote/edit.[/quote] Agreed. Taking nothing away from his abilities, but he was only coasting on the fact that he was blind. Not to be mean.

Did anyone else know Scott was ridiculously classically trained? [url=http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/TV/04/10/amer.idol.macintyre/index.html]'Idol' MacIntyre: 'Thought I actually would be saved' - CNN.com[/url]

Allison: Not bad, but not great. Anoop: Probably his best so far. Adam: Surprise, surprise...a rock song. He's got great stage presence though. Matt: I liked his spin on this song! But he did sound pitchy. Danny: Pretty nice job! Kris: I love this song, and I think he did a great job. Lil: I likey a LOT. Missed the comments because I had 2 things recording at 9pm. Overall, not too bad!

I think the bottom 3 will be: Anoop, Lil, and Matt. Matt should go home now it's his time!
